Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether corifollitropin alfa (MK-8962), administered alone for 12 weeks and then in combination with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for 52 weeks, increases the testicular volume in adolescent males aged 14 to \<18. In addition, the study will evaluate participants for safety, tolerability and for the development of corifollitropin alfa antibodies. No formal hypothesis will be tested for this estimation study
