A multicenter randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, exploratory phase IIa study in subjects with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of GLPG1690. Male and female subjects aged 40 years or older will be screened to determine eligibility. The screening period will be up to 4 weeks. At baseline, eligible subjects will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to GLPG1690 or matching placebo administered for 12 weeks. The subjects will visit the study center at screening, baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 and for a follow-up visit 2 weeks after the last administration of study drug. Planned assessments: Adverse event reporting, clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, physical examination, 12-Lead-ECG, PK blood sampling, biomarker blood/bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), Spirometry, St George's respiratory questionnaire, high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT).

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
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).
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)
Mean Peak Area Ratio of LPA C18:2 Species in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF)
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).
Time frame: Baseline (Day -1) and Day 84
