Brief summary

Part A: The purpose of Part A of the study is to look at the electrocardiogram (ECG) effects due to blood sugar changes after a meal compared to when LY2409021 is also given with a meal. Part B: The purpose of Part B is to evaluate the effect of LY2409021, when given at a dose level much higher than what would normally be given, on the electrical activity of the heart as measured by ECG in relation to placebo and moxifloxacin.

Detailed description

This is a 2 part study. Part A is a single-dose study to compare the effects of a meal on glucose, insulin and QT in healthy participants with and without LY2409021. Part B of this study is a randomized, 3-period, crossover design, in which participants and investigators are blinded to placebo and LY2409021, and will assess the electrophysiological effects of a single supratherapeutic dose of LY2409021 compared to a positive control (moxifloxacin) and placebo.
