- Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: From screening up to Day 98 ]
- Mean Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax; Micrograms Per Milliliter [µg/mL]) of GLPG1690 [ Time Frame: Baseline, predose on Days 7, 14, 28, 56, 84, and 98 (or at early discontinuation), and at 1.5, 4, and 6 hours postdose on Day 28 ]
- Median Time to Occurrence of GLPG1690 Cmax (Tmax; Hours [h]) [ Time Frame: Baseline, predose on Days 7, 14, 28, 56, 84, and 98 (or at early discontinuation), and at 1.5, 4, and 6 hours postdose on Day 28 ]
- Mean Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC[t]; µg.h/mL) of GLPG1690 [ Time Frame: Baseline, predose on Days 7, 14, 28, 56, 84, and 98 (or at early discontinuation), and at 1.5, 4, and 6 hours postdose on Day 28 ]
- Mean GLPG1690 Plasma Concentration Observed at Predose (Ctrough; µg/mL) [ Time Frame: Baseline, predose on Days 7, 14, 28, 56, 84, and 98 (or at early discontinuation), and at 1.5, 4, and 6 hours postdose on Day 28 ]
- Mean Peak Area Ratio of Lysophosphatidic Acid (LPA) C18:2 Species in Blood [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), predose and 1.5 and 6 hours postdose on Day 28, predose on Day 84, and Day 98 (or early discontinuation) ]LPA species C18:2 concentrations were determined in blood using a validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectometry (LC/MS-MS) method. The baseline reference timepoint was Day -1 (mean of the pre-dosing duplicates).
- Mean Peak Area Ratio of LPA C18:2 Species in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF) [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1) and Day 84 ]LPA species C18:2 concentrations were determined in BALF using a validated LC/MS-MS method. The baseline reference timepoint was Day -1 (mean of the pre-dosing duplicates).
