Conditions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Brief summary

The primary purpose of this study is to help answer the following research questions, and not to provide treatment for any condition: * To evaluate how much of the study drug (LY2189265) is in the blood of participants with varying degrees of liver impairment compared to those with normal liver function. * To assess the safety of LY2189265 and any side effects that might be associated with it.
