Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Researchers have designed a study medicine called MK-5684 as a new way to treat prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to learn what happens to MK-5684 in a person's body over time (a pharmacokinetic or PK study). Researchers will compare what happens to MK-5684 in the body when it is given with and without another medicine called diltiazem.
