Outcome Measures: Main Objective: 1. To evaluate the effect of each dose of MK-3655 versus placebo on the proportion of individuals with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) resolution without worsening of fibrosis after 52 weeks.<br>2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-3655 compared with placebo.;Secondary Objective: 1. To evaluate the effect of each dose of MK-3655 versus placebo on mean percent relative reduction from baseline in liver fat content (LFC) after 24 weeks.<br>2. To evaluate the effect of each dose of MK-3655 versus placebo on the proportion of individuals with =1 stage improvement in fibrosis without worsening of steatohepatitis after 52 weeks.<br>3. To evaluate the effect of each dose of MK-3655 versus placebo on the proportion of individuals with =2 point improvement in the Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Activity Score (NAS) without worsening of fibrosis after 52 weeks.<br>;Primary end point(s): 1. Percentage of participants with NASH resolution without worsening fibrosis assessed with the NASH Clinical Research Network (CRN) scoring system (evaluated by blinded independent central review [BICR]) after 52 weeks<br>2. Percentage of participants with adverse events (AEs) up to 56 weeks<br>3. Percentage of participants discontinuing study intervention due to adverse events (AEs) up to 52 weeks<br><br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. At 52 weeks <br>2. Up to 56 weeks<br>3. Up to 52 weeks<br>Secondary end point(s): 1. Change from baseline in liver fat content (LFC) (%) measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Estimated Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) (evaluated by BICR) after 24 weeks<br>2. Percentage of participants with =1 stage improvement in fibrosis without worsening of steatohepatitis assessed with the NASH CRN scoring system (evaluated by BICR) after 52 weeks<br>3. Percentage of participants with =2 point improvement (PI) in the Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Activity Score (NAS) with =1 PI in inflammation/ballooning without worsening fibrosis by NASH CRN scoring system (evaluated by BICR) after 52 weeks<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Baseline and 24 Weeks<br>2. At 52 weeks<br>3. At 52 weeks<br>
