Summary

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-rising-dose study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MK-8150 in healthy young men, in male participants with mild to moderate hypertension, in elderly male and female participants with mild to moderate hypertension, and in male and female participants with resistant hypertension. A primary study hypothesis is that there is at least one dose that does not increase heart rate (HR) to a clinically meaningful extent in male participants with mild to moderate hypertension and in elderly participants with mild to moderate hypertension on either Day 1 or the last Day of multiple dosing (Daylast), as measured by Time-weighted Average Across 24 hours (TWA0-24hrs). The hypothesis is met if mean increase (MK-8150 - placebo) in TWA0-24hrs HR in the identified groups is ≤15 beats per minute on Day 1 and Daylast.
