Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Time to First Arteriovenous Graft (AVG) Thrombosis Event
From date of randomization until the date of first occurrence of an AVG thrombosis event, assessed up to approximately 37 months

An AVG thrombosis event is defined as the sudden occlusion of the participant's AVG requiring thrombectomy/thrombolysis, or clinical evidence of thrombosis with surgical, radiological or pathological conformation of an AVG thrombosis. A blinded independent clinical adjudication committee (CAC) adjudicated AVG thrombosis events. A time-to-event methodology was used to evaluate the results. The incidence rate is presented.

Number of Participants With An Adverse Event (AE)
Up to 134 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants that experience an AE will be reported.

Frequently asked questions about MK-2060

What is MK-2060 used for?

MK-2060 is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for use in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are receiving hemodialysis. It is being evaluated to address complications related to renal dialysis and venous thrombosis in this patient population.

What does MK-2060 target?

MK-2060 is an anti-factor XI monoclonal antibody. It targets factor XI, a protein involved in blood clotting, to potentially reduce thrombotic events without increasing bleeding risk in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis.

Who makes MK-2060?

MK-2060 is being developed by Merck & Company, Inc., which trades under the ticker symbol MRK on the New York Stock Exchange. Merck is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this investigational drug.

What phase is MK-2060 in?

MK-2060 is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed Phase 1 trials and one Phase 2 trial, with all trials completed to date. The drug remains investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials has MK-2060 been in?

MK-2060 has been studied in several completed trials, including NCT03873038, a Phase 1 safety and pharmacokinetics study in older ESRD patients on hemodialysis; NCT05027074, a Phase 2 global study in ESRD patients receiving hemodialysis; NCT05335005, a Phase 1 co-administration study with clopidogrel; and NCT05656040, a Phase 1 study in chronic and/or end-stage kidney disease.

Is MK-2060 the same as an anti-factor XI antibody?

Yes, MK-2060 is described as an anti-factor XI monoclonal antibody in its clinical trial titles. It is designed to target factor XI, a coagulation protein, and is being investigated for its potential role in managing thrombotic risk in patients with kidney disease.
