  • Has an unmanaged sleep disorder with persistent insomnia that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with accurate reporting of physical pain symptoms.
  • Has moderate or severe hepatic impairment based on clinical judgement, in the opinion of the investigator, or meets diagnostic criteria based on ALT and AST laboratory values outlined in exclusion #
  • Has previously used Journavx (suzetrigine) or any other NaV1.8 inhibitor.
  • Is currently using a moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitor or inducer that cannot be discontinued, or is not able to follow the guidance for restricted medications throughout the study
  • Is currently taking medications that have been shown to cause Torsade de Pointes. Participants taking medications that are suspected to prolong QT interval must be on a stable regimen and must not have plans to change those medications during the study.
  • Is currently using any other investigational drugs or devices that cannot be discontinued or is not able to follow the guidance for restricted medications throughout the study
  • Has participated in a previous study investigating LTG-
  • Has participated in another investigational study within 30 days (or 90 days for biologics) prior to screening.
  • Has osteoarthritis or other potentially serious joint pathology in any joint that is deemed rapidly progressive.
  • Is a male participant with ECG QTcF >450 msec or female participant with ECG QTcF >470 msec (applying Fridericia correction), defined as the mean of the QTcF of triplicate ECGs obtained in rapid succession. Participants using allowable concomitant medications that are known or suspected to prolong QT interval (consistent with exclusion #26) will be excluded if their QTcF >430 ms.
  • Has clinically significant abnormal laboratory parameter(s) and/or ECG parameter(s) during screening, that, in the judgment of the investigator, would preclude the participant from participation in this study.
  • Has an eGFR of <45 mL/min/1.73 m2 at screening.
  • Has ALT or AST values >1.5× ULN at screening.
  • Has any other abnormal laboratory results indicative of significant medical disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude the participant’s participation in the study.
  • Has a positive urine drug screen, other than for a known prescribed concomitant medication that is not otherwise exclusionary (e.g., benzodiazepines).
  • Is, or has a close relative that is the investigator or a sub-investigator, research assistant, pharmacist, study coordinator or other staff directly involved with the conduct of the study at that site.
  • Has a history of any illness or any clinical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose an additional risk in administering study drug.
  • Meets any other lifestyle, medication, or other study restrictions.
  • Has a hip dislocation and congenital hip dysplasia with degenerative joint disease.
  • Has a history of gout with recent (i.e., <6 months) pain flares and uncontrolled uric acid levels. Participants with a history or diagnosis of pseudogout (calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease) can enroll if there has not been a flare within the 6 months prior to screening and use of NSAIDs is not required for management of this condition.
  • Has any chronic pain condition besides osteoarthritis for which they have taken medication in the past year, including neuropathic pain, complex regional pain syndrome, chronic widespread pain syndromes (e.g., fibromyalgia), chronic low back pain, and migraine.
