The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple increasing oral doses of GLPG0259 compared to placebo. Also, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of GLPG0259 after multiple increasing oral doses, and potential drug-drug interaction with single dose methotrexate will be assessed.
