Summary

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-retroviral therapy (ART) activity of islatravir (MK-8591) monotherapy in ART-naive, human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infected participants. The primary hypothesis is that at a safe and tolerable dose of islatravir, the true mean difference in the plasma HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) reduction from baseline between islatravir and placebo is at least 0.5 log (base10) copies/mL.
