The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of LY4298445 in healthy participants and in participants with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Participation in the study will last up to approximately 52 weeks.
Phase 1 trials primarily test safety and dosing in a small number of participants (typically 20–100). Results do not yet speak to efficacy. FDA approval is typically many years away from this stage.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (54/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
