An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition which was temporally associated with the use of study drug was also an AE. The number of participants who experienced at least one AE is presented.

DLT was any drug-related AE, regardless of grade, leading to a dose modification of MK-2206. Dose-limiting hematologic and nonhematologic toxicities were defined differently and were based on events occurring during the first cycle of study drug administration. Hematologic DLT defined as any Grade (Gr) 4 or greater hematologic toxicity except neutropenia described as follows: Neutropenia that was Gr 4 lasting for ≥7 days, or Gr 3/Gr 4 with fever \>38.5°C and/or infection requiring antibiotic or anti-fungal treatment considered DLT. Gr 4 thrombocytopenia (≤25.0 x 10\^9/L) was also considered DLT. Non-hematologic DLTs were defined as any Gr 3, 4, or 5 nonhematologic toxicity, with the specific exceptions of: Gr 3 nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or dehydration occurring with inadequate supportive care and lasting \<48 hours; alopecia; inadequately treated hypersensitivity reactions; and Gr 3 elevated transaminases of ≤1 week in duration. A participant could have more than one DLT.
An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a pre-existing condition which was temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, was also an AE. The number of participants that experienced one or more AEs was reported for each dose level group.

MK-2206 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, including cancers and neoplasms. It is in Phase 1 clinical development and is not yet approved by the FDA.
MK-2206 is an investigational small molecule being developed for oncology. Its specific molecular target has not been disclosed in available information, so its mechanism of action is not described here.
MK-2206 is being developed by Merck & Company, Inc., a pharmaceutical company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol MRK.
MK-2206 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA for any use.
MK-2206 has been studied in three completed Phase 1 trials: NCT00670488, a dose escalation study in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors; NCT00848718, a study combining MK-2206 with standard chemotherapy; and NCT01021748, a combination therapy study with AZD6244.
No, MK-2206 is not the same as AZD6244. MK-2206 is an investigational drug developed by Merck, while AZD6244 is a separate investigational agent. They were studied together in a combination therapy trial (NCT01021748) for advanced solid tumors.
