How a new drug affects a common cholesterol medicine
Treatments studied
This study checks if a new investigational drug (MK-4646) changes how the body handles rosuvastatin, a common cholesterol-lowering medicine. It is for healthy people to see if the new drug is safe to take together.

This trial tests an investigational drug called MK-6916 in healthy volunteers to see how it interacts with two common medicines (midazolam and rosuvastatin). It helps understand how the body processes these drugs together.
This trial tests a new medicine called MK-4082 in healthy people to see how safe it is and how the body handles it. It may help understand if the drug could be used for future treatments.
This study tests how a new investigational medicine affects the way your body handles two common drugs: a blood thinner (dabigatran) and a cholesterol-lowering medicine (rosuvastatin). It helps researchers understand if the new medicine is safe to use together with these drugs.
This study tests a new oral drug (HS-10510) in healthy people to check its safety and how the body handles it. It may help lower cholesterol, and some parts of the study look at how it works in people with higher cholesterol
This early study tests whether “liver fat” changes how a statin (rosuvastatin) works in children and teens. It may help doctors choose safer or more effective dosing in kids based on biology and a specific genetics marker.
