  Purpose

A single dose, open label study to characterize the routes of elimination and determine the mass balance of MK-0941. A single 40 mg dose of MK-0941 will be given orally to male participants with type 2 diabetes. After drug administration, blood, urine, and fecal samples will be collected to determine relative quantities of 14C-labeled MK-0941.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Mean Percent of Dose Recovered in Urine and Feces Following a Single Oral Dose of [^14C]MK-0941 (160 µCi). [ Time Frame: Up to 168 hours after study drug administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Urine was collected at predose, 0 to 4, 4 to 8, 8 to 12, and 12 to 24 hr postdose, and at 24 hr intervals through subject discharge. Feces were collected at pre-dose and at 24 hr intervals through subject discharge. Subjects were discharged when the total recovery in urine and feces ≥90% of the administered dose or the recovery in urine and feces for two consecutive 24-hr intervals was ≤ 1%.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of Participants Who Experienced An Adverse Event [ Time Frame: Up to 14 days after study drug administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Number of Participants Who Discontinued the Study Due to An Adverse Event [ Time Frame: Up to 14 days after study drug administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
