Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Participants With One or More Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) or Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) or Any Serious AEs (SAEs) in Part A
Time Frame: Up to 6 Weeks
TEAEs are any untoward medical occurrence that either occurs or worsens at any time after treatment baseline, and in the opinion of the investigators is possibly related to study drug. Skin Rash was the only event that was considered an AESI. A serious AE is defined as an event that results in death, initial or prolonged hospitalization, is life-threatening, leads to persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is associated with congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is considered significant by the investigator for any other reason. A summary of SAEs and other non-serious AEs, regardless of whether or not they were possibly related to study drug, is located in the Reported Adverse Event section.
Percentage of Participants Achieving American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) Response in Part B
Time Frame: Week 12
ACR20 Responder Index is a composite of clinical, laboratory, and functional measures in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). "ACR20 Responder" is a participant who has at least 20% improvement in both tender and swollen joint counts and in at least 3 of the following 5 criteria: Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis Pain using visual analog scale (VAS), Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP). Participants with missing responses and /or participants who discontinue study or drug before analysis timepoint are deemed non-responders.
Secondary Outcomes
- Pharmacokinetics (PK): Clearance Parameter of LY3337641(Part A: Weeks 1, 2, and 4, Day 1 (0.5 to 2 hours postdose); Part B: Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12, Day 1 (0.5 to 2 hours postdose))
- Percentage of Participants Achieving American College of Rheumatology 50% (ACR50) Response in Part B(Week 12)
- Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Clinical Remission Using DAS28-hsCRP in Part B(Week 12)
- Percentage of Participants Achieving American College of Rheumatology 70% (ACR70) Response in Part B(Week 12)
- Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Low Disease Activity Using DAS28-hsCRP in Part B(Week 12)
- Change From Baseline in the Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28-high-sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) in Part B(Baseline, Week 12)
