Primary outcomePrimary: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Profile From Time Zero to Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC Last) (Dose Normalized to 1 mg) and Absolute Oral Bioavailability (F) (Period 1) — 93.16; 88.96 AUCinf(dn), ng•hr/mL/mg
Summary
This study will evaluate the absolute oral bioavailability (F) and fraction absorbed (Fa) of ertugliflozin following oral administration of unlabeled ertugliflozin (MK-8835) and intravenous (IV) and oral administration of 14^C-labeled ertugliflozin in healthy male participants.
