Pharmacodynamics (PD): Cnadir of Plasma Amyloid β (Aβ)1-40
Predose, up to 96 hours after administration of study drug

Plasma concentration of Aβ1-40 was summarized based on lowest observed concentration (Cnadir).

PD: Cnadir of CSF Aβ 1-40
Predose up to 36 hours after administration of study drug

Plasma concentration of Aβ1-40 was summarized based on Cnadir following administration of a single dose of 70 mg LY2886721 or a single dose of LY2886721-matching placebo.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Effects
Predose up to Day 70

Clinically significant effects were defined as serious and nonserious adverse events. A summary of serious and all other nonserious adverse events is located in the Reported Adverse Event module. The number of participants with at least 1 adverse event in each treatment arm is reported for this outcome measure.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Effects (Adverse Events)
Predose to 10-14 days after final dose of study drug (up to 42 days)

A summary of serious adverse events and other nonserious adverse events located in Reported Adverse Event section. To assess effect of food on pharmacokinetics of LY2886721, participants in Cohort B during Period 3 (1 period=8 days) of Part 1 fasted overnight for at least 8 hours prior to receiving a single 7-milligram (mg) oral dose of LY2886721 in the fed state (Part 1 - Fed). Participants in other LY2886721 groups received LY2886721 in fasted state. Due to crossover design in Part 1, results reported by treatment; thus, participants are included in multiple arms.

Frequently asked questions about LY2886721

What is LY2886721?

LY2886721 is an investigational small molecule developed by Eli Lilly and Company for Alzheimer disease. It was studied in Phase 1 clinical trials, and all three of its trials have been completed. It is not an approved therapy and remains a clinical-stage research compound.

What is LY2886721 used for in Alzheimer disease?

LY2886721 was being evaluated as a treatment for Alzheimer disease. Eli Lilly and Company advanced it through Phase 1 testing in both healthy volunteers and participants diagnosed with Alzheimer disease. No approved use has been established, and development did not progress beyond Phase 1.

Who makes LY2886721?

LY2886721 is made by Eli Lilly and Company, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker LLY. Lilly sponsored all of the clinical trials conducted with the compound, including the single-dose and multiple-dose Phase 1 safety studies.

What phase is LY2886721 in?

LY2886721 is in Phase 1. All three of its clinical trials were Phase 1 studies, and all three are completed, with no active trials ongoing. The compound has not advanced to later-stage development.

What clinical trials is LY2886721 in?

LY2886721 has been studied in three completed Phase 1 trials: NCT01807026 in healthy participants and participants with Alzheimer disease, NCT01227252 testing multiple doses in healthy subjects, and NCT01133405 testing single doses in healthy subjects. Together these trials enrolled 118 participants.

Were the LY2886721 trials randomized and placebo controlled?

Yes. The LY2886721 clinical program used randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled designs. The three Phase 1 trials enrolled a total of 118 participants across sites in the United States, and all three studies have been completed.
