An Open-Label, Single-Dose Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics of MK-4618 in Patients With Renal Insufficiency


This study will investigate the impact of impaired renal function on the plasma
pharmacokinetics of MK-4618 to guide use of MK-4618 in clinical trials in participants with
overactive bladder and to guide recommendations on potential dosing adjustments for patients
with varying degrees of renal impairment.
