Synopsis
Title of Study:
A Phase 2 Study of Once-Weekly LY3298176 Compared with Placebo and Dulaglutide in Patients with 
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Rationale: 
Study I8F-MC-GPGB is a 26-week Phase 2 study designed to examine the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics 
(PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) of 4 dose levels of once weekly (QW) LY3298176 compared with QW dulaglutide 
1.5 mg and QW placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have inadequate glycemic control 
with diet and exercise with or without a stable dose of metformin.  The primary endpoint will be the effect on 
hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).  These data will support dose selection for Phase 3.
Objective(s)/Endpoints:
Objectives
Endpoints
Primary
To demonstrate a dose–response relationship of QW 
subcutaneous injections of LY3298176 on HbA1c 
change from baseline relative to placebo, in patients 
with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and 
exercise alone or treated with a stable dose of 
metformin.
The change in HbA1c from baseline to 26 weeks
Secondary
To determine the effect of LY3298176 versus 
dulaglutide (and to compare the effect of each versus 
placebo) on:

The mean body weight change from baseline 
to 12 and 26 weeks

The percentage of patients with 5% or 
greater body weight loss at 26 weeks

The change in mean body weight from 
baseline to 12 and 26 weeks

The percentage of patients with 5% or 
greater body weight loss from baseline to 
26 weeks

The change from baseline of HbA1c at 
12 weeks

The change in HbA1c from baseline to 
12 weeks

The percentage of patients with 10% or 
greater body weight loss at 26 weeks

The percentage of patients reaching the 
HbA1c target of 6.5% and of 7.0%

The percentage of patients with 10% or 
greater body weight loss from baseline to 
26 weeks

The percentage of patients reaching the 
HbA1c target of 6.5% and of 7.0%

The change from baseline of fasting blood 
glucose (FBG) at 12 and 26 weeks

The change from baseline to 26 weeks in 
high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total 
cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density 
lipoprotein cholesterol

The change in FBG from baseline to 12 and 
26 weeks

The change in lipids from baseline to 
26 weeks

The waist circumference

The change from baseline to 12 and 
26 weeks

Objectives
Endpoints
Secondary (continued)
Safety and tolerability, including gastrointestinal
tolerability, incidence and rate of hypoglycemia, 
hypersensitivity reactions, and pancreatic safety

Adverse events and glucose data
To evaluate the development of treatment-emergent 
anti-drug antibodies to LY3298176

Number of patients testing positive for 
anti-LY3298176 antibodies
To assess the PK and PD of LY3298176 and potential 
patient factors that may influence its PK and PD

PK and PD
To assess the relationship between LY3298176 dose 
and/or exposure and key efficacy and safety 
measures, where applicable

Dose-exposure–response analyses
Summary of Study Design:
Study GPGB is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo- and active comparator-controlled Phase 2 
trial in patients with T2DM who failed to achieve adequate glycemic control on diet and exercise alone or on a 
stable dose of metformin (1000 mg/day for at least 3 months prior to Visit 1).
Treatment Arms and Duration:
There are 6 treatment arms, including placebo, 4 dose levels of LY3298176, and dulaglutide 1.5 mg.
Number of Patients:
There will be 540 patients screened with the goal of randomizing 300 patients and having 45 patients per treatment 
arm who complete the study.
Statistical Analysis:
Efficacy:  The primary efficacy outcome of HbA1c change from baseline to the 26-week endpoint will be analyzed 
using a Bayesian dose–response model.  Analyses will be performed on the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis 
set.  Supportive analysis of the primary efficacy outcome for the mITT dataset will be the mixed model for repeated 
measures (MMRM) with body mass index (<30, 30), metformin use, treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit 
interaction as fixed effects, baseline HbA1c as a covariate, and patient as a random effect.  Additional covariates 
may be added and will be detailed in the statistical analysis plan.
The mean weight change from baseline at 12 and 26 weeks along with the mean change from baseline of HbA1c at 
12 weeks will be analyzed using similar dose–response models as the primary analysis. The percentage of patients 
with 5% (and with 10%) body weight loss, the percentage of patients reaching the HbA1c target of 6.5% (and of 
7.0%) at 26 weeks, and the proportion of patients requiring rescue therapy will be analyzed using a logistic 
regression analysis with fixed effects of treatment and strata, and baseline as a covariate.  The change from baseline 
of FBG, self-monitoring of blood glucose levels, waist circumference, mean percentage change in lipids and change 
from baseline to 12 and 26 weeks for fibroblast growth factor-21, adiponectin, -hydroxy butyrate, free fatty acids, 
glycerol, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), glucagon, C-peptide, and insulin levels will be calculated 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol

using a similar MMRM-based model to the one used for the supporting primary analysis.  Summaries will include 
descriptive statistics for continuous measures (sample size, mean, standard deviation [SD], median, minimum, and 
maximum) and for categorical measures (sample size, frequency, and percentage).
Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics:  LY3298176 concentration data will be analyzed using a population PK 
approach via nonlinear mixed-effects modeling with the NONMEM software.  The relationships between 
LY3298176 dose and/or concentration and efficacy, tolerability, and safety, as well as biomarkers, will be 
characterized if exploratory analyses of the PD data warrant further PK/PD analyses upon review.  Such analyses 
may include, but are not necessarily limited to, QTc interval, blood pressure, heart rate, glucose, HbA1c, insulin, 
nausea/vomiting, etc.  In addition, the relationship between biomarkers and LY3298176 efficacy will be analyzed, if 
deemed appropriate.  If positive antibody titers to LY3298176 are observed, the relationship between LY3298176
PK or any relevant PD parameters and antibody titer will be performed.
Safety:  The summary statistics for continuous variables will be sample size, mean, SD, median, minimum, and 
maximum.  The summary statistics for categorical variables will be sample size, frequency, and percentage.  
Exposure to each therapy during the treatment period of the study will be calculated for each patient and 
summarized by treatment group.  Additional analyses, such as concentration–safety lab plots, may be performed if 
warranted upon review of the data.

Introduction
3.1.
Study Rationale
Study I8F-MC-GPGB is a 26-week Phase 2 study designed to examine the safety, efficacy, and 
pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) of 4 dose levels of once weekly (QW) 
subcutaneously administered LY3298176 compared with QW subcutaneously administered 
dulaglutide 1.5 mg and QW placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have 
inadequate glycemic control with diet and exercise with or without a stable dose of metformin.  
The primary objective will be the effect on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).  These data will support 
dose selection for Phase 3.

Illustration of study design for Clinical Protocol I8F-MC-GPGB.
All LY3298176 dose levels above 5 mg will be reached through dose titration (see Section 7.1).
Study procedures and timing for the lead-in, blinded treatment, and follow-up phases are 
outlined in Section 2.  Eligibility for this study will be determined at a screening visit (Visit 1).  
Screening procedures will be performed on approximately Day 21 according to the Schedule of 
Activities.  Patients will receive training on the routine blood glucose monitoring and paper diary 
completion required during the study.  Patients should follow the investigator’s instructions 
related to frequency of SMBG but should test their glucose a minimum of 3 times per week and 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol

LY3298176
as specified for determination of 7-point glucose profiles (see Section 9.1.2.1).  Eligible patients 
will return to the site for some baseline procedures during the lead-in phase (Visit 2) and again 
for randomization to treatment and to receive their first dose of study drug at Visit 3.
After randomization and the first dose (Visit 3), patients will return to the site for PK collection 
just prior to the second dose (Visit 4).  Patients will also have a predose PK collection prior to 
Week 8 (Visit 10), Week 12 dose (Visit 11), and Week 26 (Visit 16) dose.  There will be 
postdose PK collections after the second dose (PK-specific Visit 5), third dose (PK-specific 
Visit 7), fifth dose (PK-specific Visit 9, and 12-week dose (PK-specific Visit 12) (see Appendix 
6, Pharmacokinetics Schedule of Events).
A safety follow-up visit will occur approximately 4 weeks following the last dose of the study 
drug.  Patients randomized to LY3298176 who develop treatment-emergent anti-LY3298176 
antibodies will be monitored after the last visit (see Section 9.8.1).
Throughout the study, patients treated with metformin will remain on the same dose they were 
receiving at Visit 1 unless changes need to be made for safety reasons.  All patients will be 
encouraged to maintain their prestudy diet and exercise levels through the course of the study.
In the treatment phase, a double-dummy dose administration scheme will be employed to ensure 
patients and investigators (as well as sponsor study team and monitors) remain blind to the 
LY3298176, dulaglutide 1.5 mg, and placebo treatment assignments within each treatment group.  
At each dosing occasion, the study drug will be administered as 1 to 3 SC injections of 
LY3298176 or matched placebo and 1 SC injection of dulaglutide 1.5 mg or its placebo.  
Therefore, each patient will self-administer 2 to 4 injections per week.
5.2.
Number of Participants
Approximately 540 participants will be screened to achieve 300 randomized and 270 evaluable 
participants for an estimated total of 45 evaluable participants per treatment group.
5.3.
End of Study Definition
End of the trial is the date of the last visit or last scheduled procedure shown in the Schedule of 
Activities (Section 2) for the last patient.
5.4.
Scientific Rationale for Study Design
Study GPGB is a Phase 2 study designed to examine the efficacy and safety of QW LY3298176 
compared with dulaglutide 1.5 mg and placebo in patients with T2DM who have inadequate 
glycemic control with diet and exercise alone or on a stable dose of metformin.
Inclusion of an active comparator (dulaglutide 1.5 mg) in Study GPGB will allow for a direct 
comparison of the safety and efficacy of QW LY3298176 to an injectable GLP-1 RA (as well as 
to placebo) over a 6-month time period.  In addition, effects of the medication on other 
parameters such as circulating biomarkers, other measures of glycemic control, lipids, and 
various safety-related assessments will also be determined.  The planned duration of 6 months 
will allow for a more optimal comparison of the body weight effects of the 2 drugs, as the 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 23
LY3298176
putative mechanism of action of LY3298176 suggests that treatment with LY3298176 will result 
in continued weight loss over a 6-month period.  The data from this trial will form the primary 
basis to assess dose/exposure–response of LY3298176 efficacy for selection of doses to be 
included in Phase 3 testing.  In addition, safety and tolerability over a wide dose range of 
LY3298176 versus placebo and dulaglutide 1.5 mg will be assessed to enable robust benefit–risk 
characterizations in T2DM.
The placebo arm was included in order to determine whether any efficacy or safety effects of 
LY3298176 that are different in magnitude from those of dulaglutide 1.5 mg are in fact 
equivalent to or are also different from no treatment (i.e., placebo).
The current study will enroll patients with inadequate glycemic control based on HbA1c values 
ranging from 7.0% to 10.5%, inclusive.  Similar ranges of screening HbA1c have been used in 
numerous studies of T2DM treatments.
Patients treated with diet and exercise alone, or in combination with stable metformin 
monotherapy (1000 mg/day), will be enrolled.  Patients on a second oral antihyperglycemic 
medication (OAM) may be also be eligible if the second OAM was discontinued 3 months or 
more prior to Visit 1 (refer to Section 6.2, Exclusion Criterion 23).  Stable metformin treatment 
for at least 3 months is required to minimize glucose variability prior to study entry.
5.5.
Justification for Dose
LY3298176 doses of 1 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg (titrated), and 15 mg (titrated), administered 
subcutaneously QW, were selected based on the following:

Safety and tolerability of LY3298176 in healthy subjects and T2DM patients in the 
Phase 1 study GPGA through doses of 10 mg.

The margin of safety for the 15-mg maximum dose in this study has an exposure multiple 
of approximately 1 to the no-observed-adverse-effect level in rats and monkeys in the 
6-month toxicology studies.

The 1 mg was selected using PK/PD modeling and is predicted to achieve LY3298176 
concentration levels that will demonstrate HbA1c lowering compared with placebo.

The selected dose levels and dose range support a robust dose-exposure–response 
analysis of multiple safety and efficacy measures to support selection of dose(s) of 
LY3298176 with optimal benefit/risk ratio for further clinical development.

cotransport 2 inhibitors, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, meglitinides) in addition 
to metformin therapy may be randomized if the additional OAM treatment 
was discontinued at least 3 months prior to screening.
[36] Have used insulin for diabetic control within the prior year.  However, short-
term use of insulin for acute conditions is allowed (14 days) in certain 
situations, such as during a hospitalization or perioperatively (see 
Section 7.7).
[37] Have had any exposure to dulaglutide, other GLP-1 analogs, or other related 
compounds within the prior 3 months or any history ever of allergies to these 
medications.  Patients who previously took GLP-1 analogs or related 
compounds and who discontinued those medications >3 months prior to 
Visit 1 for intolerability or lack of efficacy should not be randomized.
[38] Have been treated or plan to be treated with drugs that promote weight loss 
(e.g., Saxenda [liraglutide 3.0 mg], Xenical[orlistat], Meridia
[sibutramine], Acutrim[phenylpropanolamine], Sanorex[mazindol], 
Apidex[phentermine], BELVIQ[lorcaserin], Qsymia
[phentermine/topiramate combination], Contrave[naltrexone/bupropion] or 
similar other body weight loss medications including over-the-counter [OTC] 
medications [e.g., allī]) within 3 months prior to Visit 1.
[39] Are receiving chronic (>2 weeks) systemic glucocorticoid therapy (excluding 
topical, intraocular, intranasal, intra-articular, or inhaled preparations) or have 
received such therapy within 4 weeks immediately prior to screening.
[40] Are currently taking a central nervous system stimulant (e.g., Ritalin-SR) 
with the exception of caffeinated beverages at screening.
[41] Within 30 days of the initial dose of study drug, have received treatment with 
a drug that has not received regulatory approval for any indication.  If the 
previous study drug has a long half-life, 3 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is 
longer) should have passed.

6.3.
Lifestyle Restrictions
Study participants should be instructed not to donate blood or blood products during the study or 
for 8 weeks following the study.
6.4.
Screen Failures
Individuals who do not meet the criteria for participation in this study (screen failures) may be 
rescreened only once at the discretion of the investigator.  Before rescreening is performed, the 
patient must sign a new informed consent form (ICF) and receive a new identification number.  
If, in the opinion of the investigator, an ineligible lab test result is the result of an error or 
extenuating circumstance, then that parameter can be retested once (if feasible within the time 
constraints of the screening period) without the patient having to be rescreened.  However, 
screen failures for HbA1c may not be retested or rescreened.

Treatments
7.1.
Treatments Administered
This study will evaluate 4 parallel dose groups of LY3298176 at SC dose levels of 1 mg, 5 mg,
10 mg, and 15 mg QW for up to 26 weeks and the results will be compared with those for 
dulaglutide 1.5 mg and placebo.  The study design is composed of 6 parallel treatment groups 
(approximately 45 patients per group).  One treatment group will receive LY3298176 placebo 
and placebo for dulaglutide.  One treatment group will receive active dulaglutide 1.5 mg and 
LY3298176 placebo. In the 4 remaining treatment groups, patients randomized to the 1-mg and 
5-mg doses of LY3298176 will receive 1 injection of active LY3298176 and 1 injection of 
dulaglutide placebo. Patients randomized to the 10-mg dose of LY3298176 will receive 
2 injections of active LY3298176 and 1 injection of dulaglutide placebo after the titration period, 
and patients randomized to the 15-mg dose of LY3298176 will receive 3 injections of active 
LY3298176 and 1 injection of dulaglutide placebo after the titration period (Table GPGB.2).  All 
SC dose administrations of LY3298176 and dulaglutide should be in different quadrants of the 
abdomen.
This study involves dose titration in 5-mg increments for doses above 5 mg (Table GPGB.3).  
Although the investigator and patients will know dose group assignment (LY3298176 1 mg, 
5 mg, 10 mg, or 15 mg) due to the study drug dose volume and titration scheme, they will not 
know whether they are actually receiving placebo, LY3298176, or dulaglutide.  Thus, patients 
may be titrating placebo.  In the description of the titration below, please note patients may 
receive LY3298176 or a complementary dose volume of placebo.
Patients assigned to the 1-mg and 5-mg treatment groups will receive that dose level throughout 
the study and will not have dose titration.  All patients in the 10-mg and 15-mg groups will 
receive 5 mg as the first and second doses (Visits 3 and 4).  Patients assigned to the 10-mg and 
15-mg groups will receive 10 mg as the third dose (Visit 6), and the patients assigned 10 mg will 
continue that dose for the duration of the study.  The patients assigned to the 15-mg dose will 
continue to receive 10 mg through dose 6 and will begin 15 mg as dose 7 and will continue that 
dose for the duration of the study.  Patients in every dose group except the 1-mg and 5-mg 
groups who have reached their target dose and have received the target dose for 2 weeks but still 
are unable to tolerate that dose level (have vomiting or moderate to severe nausea), may have the 
dose reduced by 5 mg (10-mg patients would receive 5 mg and 15-mg patients would receive 
10 mg) and may remain on the reduced dose for the remainder of the study.  The dose the patient 
administers each week should be recorded on the case report form (CRF) during titration and 
throughout the study.

a
This is the recommended titration time course.  The dose utilized should be captured on the study drug CRF.
b
There are no scheduled visits for Weeks 3, 5, 6,and 7 dosing.  The investigator should give the patient the 
expected titration dose for Week 3 at the Week 2 visit (Visit 6) and for Weeks 5- 7 at the Week 4 visit (Visit 8).  
However, for any titration week, the investigator may have the patient come to the site for an unscheduled visit to 
dilute the vials and self-administer the study drug under study site supervision.  If a patient does not tolerate a 
target dose level for 2 weeks due to vomiting or moderate to severe nausea and the investigator believes that the 
patient will not tolerate the dose with further exposure, the investigator may decrease the dose by 5 mg and the 
patient should remain at that dose level for the duration of the study (see Section 7.4 for additional discussion on 
dose modification).

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 32
LY3298176
Patients will be required to dilute study drug vials and administer injections of the study drug by 
syringe and to administer 1 single-dose pen (SDP) injection of dulaglutide or matching placebo 
themselves. Patients should inject study drug and SDP injections on the same date and at 
approximately the same time.  The study site will send vials, diluent, syringes, needles, and SDPs
home with patients.  Patients will be diluting the vials and self-injecting at home during weeks 
without a clinical site visit and instructions will be provided.  For all clinical site visits other than 
PK-specific visits, the patient should dilute the vials and administer the study drug (including 
dulaglutide SDP or matching placebo) at the clinical research site under the supervision of study 
personnel in order to reinforce patient understanding and confidence.  The investigator or site 
staff may assist patients with vial reconstitution and study drug injection any other time they 
deem necessary.
Patients taking background metformin (either immediate release or extended release) are 
strongly encouraged to remain on the same type of metformin during the trial, if possible.  
Changing formulations or manufacturers of metformin during the study participation should be 
minimized.  If a dose change (i.e., conversion of extended release to immediate release or vice 
versa) is required, the investigator should determine the most appropriate clinically equivalent 
metformin dose.  The metformin dose should be at least 1000 mg/day and not more than the 
highest dose allowed per local label.
The patient receiving metformin should continue the baseline dose of metformin, unless the 
patient experiences documented hypoglycemia, in which case the dose may be reduced.
The investigator or his/her designee is responsible for the following:

explaining the correct use of the investigational agents to the patient or the 
patient’s legal representative

verifying that instructions are followed properly

maintaining accurate records of investigational product dispensing and collection

at the end of the study returning all unused medication to Lilly, or its designee,
unless the sponsor and sites have agreed that all unused medication is to be 
destroyed by the site, as allowed by local law.
Patients will be instructed to contact the investigator as soon as possible if he/she has a complaint 
or problem with the study drug or drug delivery system so that the situation can be assessed.
7.1.1. Packaging and Labeling
Clinical trial materials will be labeled according to the country’s regulatory requirements.  
LY3298176, dulaglutide 1.5 mg, and their matched placebos will be supplied by Lilly.  
 
 
 
 
 
 Patients will inject the dose volume appropriate for their

LY3298176
treatment group, including placebo patients within a group.  Dulaglutide or matching placebo 
will be provided as SDPs.  LY3298176 vials and dulaglutide 1.5 mg SDPs must always be stored 
in a secure location with access limited to designated study staff members.
Instructions for the reconstitution of study drug will be provided separately to each patient and 
the investigator.  
 
 The reconstituted LY3298176 or placebo solution 
should be used immediately after reconstitution.
Study drug (including dulaglutide 1.5 mg) must be stored in a refrigerator at 2C to 8C (36F 
to 46F).  Temperature logs must be maintained to verify correct storage conditions at the 
investigator site, throughout the study. Patients should be instructed to store the study drug in 
their refrigerator but are not required to maintain temperature logs.
Dulaglutide 1.5 mg or its placebo should be injected in a different quadrant of the abdomen from 
the concomitant LY3298176 or LY3298176 placebo injections.
7.1.2. Medical Devices
The manufactured medical devices provided for patient use in the study are dulaglutide and 
matching placebo SDPs, glucose meters, and lancet devices.
7.2.
Method of Treatment Assignment
A unique 4-digit patient number will be assigned to each patient when the patient signs the ICF.
Patients will be assigned to dulaglutide 1.5 mg, placebo, or 1 of 4 LY3298176 dose levels.  
Patients who meet all criteria for enrollment will be randomized at Visit 3 and assigned to their 
respective treatment arms via IWRS using the following stratification variables:  baseline HbA1c 
(<8.5%, 8.5%), metformin use (Yes, No), and BMI (<30, 30).  There will be equal 
randomization to the treatment arms (1:1:1:1:1:1).  However, LY3298176 placebo patients will 
be randomized such that a portion will be randomized to each cohort in order to receive the same 
dose volume as that cohort in order to maintain the study blind.  For the active dulaglutide 
1.5 mg group, LY3298176 placebo patients should also be distributed through the treatment 
groups in order to maintain the blind.
The randomization scheme will be performed using IWRS that will ensure balance between 
treatment arms.
7.2.1. Selection and Timing of Doses
Assignment to 1 of the 4 LY3298176 doses, dulaglutide 1.5 mg, or placebo will occur at 
randomization.  There are no restrictions on the time of day each weekly dose is given, but it is 
advisable to administer SC injections on the same day and same time each week. The actual date 
and time of all dose administrations will be recorded in the subject’s CRF. If a dose of study 
drug, including dulaglutide or its placebo, is missed, the patient should take it as soon as possible 
unless it is within 72 hours of the next dose, in which case that dose should be skipped and the 
next dose taken at the appropriate time.

7.2.2.
Specific Restrictions/Requirements
Prior to beginning the study, patients will complete informed consent and baseline tests.
Throughout the study, patients may undergo medical assessments and review of compliance with 
restrictions before continuing in the study.
Patients will report to the clinical research site for safety assessments and will remain in the 
clinic until all procedures for that visit are complete and the investigator has deemed it safe to 
release the patient from the clinic.  There will be no inpatient stays.  In addition, patients will 
report to the clinical research site for PK-specific visits (Visits 5, 7, 9, and 12).
Meals/Diet – Patients shall fast for at least 8 hours overnight prior to each outpatient visit where 
fasting samples are drawn or weight measurements taken.
Alcohol – Alcohol will not be permitted 8 hours prior to the dosing day, until the patient has 
been discharged from the clinical research site.
Exercise – Patients will be advised to maintain their regular levels of physical activity/exercise 
during the study.  When certain study procedures are in progress at the site, patients may be 
required to remain recumbent or sitting.
Blood donation – Study participants should be instructed not to donate blood or blood products 
during the study or for 8 weeks following the study.
Contraception – Male patients or their female partners of child-bearing potential must use 
reliable contraception during intercourse throughout the treatment period and for 3 months after 
the last dose of study drug (as the risk of LY3298176 to the unborn fetus is unknown).  Female 
patients of childbearing potential, if sexually active, should use two forms of effective 
contraception, where at least one form is highly effective for the duration of the trial and for
30 days thereafter. Please see Appendix 7 for further details regarding contraception.
7.3.
Blinding
This is a double-blind study.  Although the patient and the investigator will know which dose 
group (1 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, or 15 mg LY3298176) the patient is assigned to, they will not know 
whether the patient is receiving LY3298176, dulaglutide 1.5 mg, or placebo.
To preserve the blinding of the study, a minimum number of Lilly personnel will see the 
randomization table and treatment assignments before the study is complete.
Emergency codes, generated by a computer drug-labeling system, will be available to the 
investigator.  These codes, which reveal the patient’s treatment group when opened, may be 
opened during the study ONLY if the patient’s well-being requires knowledge of the patient’s 
treatment assignment.
Emergency unblinding for AEs may be performed through the IWRS, which may supplement or 
take the place of emergency codes generated by a computer drug-labeling system.  This option 
may be used ONLY if the patient’s well-being requires knowledge of the patient’s treatment 
assignment.  All calls resulting in an unblinding event are recorded and reported by the IWRS.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 35
LY3298176
If an investigator, site personnel performing assessments, or patient is unblinded, the patient
must be discontinued from the study.  In cases where there are ethical reasons to have the patient
remain in the study, the investigator must obtain specific approval from a Lilly clinical research 
physician (CRP) for the patient to continue in the study.
In case of an emergency, the investigator has the sole responsibility for determining if unblinding 
of a patient’s treatment assignment is warranted.  Patient safety must always be the first 
consideration in making such a decision.  If the investigator decides that unblinding is warranted, 
the investigator should make every effort to contact the Lilly CRP prior to unblinding a patient’s 
treatment assignment unless this could delay emergency treatment of the patient.  If a patient’s 
treatment assignment is unblinded, Lilly must be notified immediately.
Upon completion of the study, all codes must be returned to Lilly or its designee.
7.4.
Dosage Modification
Adjustment in study drug dose level will be allowed for patients assigned to the LY3298176 
10-mg and 15-mg groups.  If a patient in a LY3298176 treatment group of 10 mg or 15 mg does 
not tolerate the target titrated dose for 2 weeks once the assigned dose is reached, in other words 
if the patient is still vomiting or has moderate to severe nausea and the investigator does not 
believe that the patient will tolerate the dose with further exposure, then the investigator may 
drop the dose back to the next lower dose.  Thus, if a patient has reached the target dose of 
10 mg and has vomiting or moderate to severe nausea for 2 weeks, then the patient’s dose level 
may be dropped back to 5 mg and the patient may remain on 5 mg for the duration of the study.  
Similarly, the 15-mg dose would be dropped to 10 mg.  The actual dose received should be 
recorded on the CRF each week.  Dosing of concomitant metformin is discussed in Section 7.7.
7.5.
Preparation/Handling/Storage/Accountability
The study site must store the study drug in a locked and secure environment. The study drug 
must be refrigerated (not frozen) at 2C to 8C. Dry ice should not be used for cooling. Patients 
will be provided with double-blinded vials containing lyophilized LY3298176 or LY3298176 
placebo and Sterile Water for Injection (along with syringes) and SDPs containing dulaglutide or 
dulaglutide placebo, at clinic visits according to the Study Schedule. The patients will also 
receive insulated bags with cooling gel packs for use in transporting the study drug from the site 
to the home. Study drug in each participating country will be labeled according to the country’s 
regulatory requirements.
Commercial metformin may be made available during the treatment period to patients who 
entered the trial on this agent. Appropriate use and storage information will be available by 
referring to the package insert.
7.6.
Treatment Compliance
During the study, patients will be asked to return their unused study drug materials and 
completed diaries to the site so that their compliance may be assessed.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 36
LY3298176
Patients who are significantly noncompliant will be permanently discontinued from study
medication.  A patient will be considered significantly noncompliant if he/she intentionally 
misses 4 or more doses of study medication.  Similarly, a patient will be considered significantly 
noncompliant if he/she is judged by the investigator to have intentionally or repeatedly taken 
more than the prescribed amount of medication.
7.7.
Concomitant Therapy
Treatment with drugs that are excluded in the entry criteria (Section 6) is not permitted.
The only concomitant antihyperglycemic medication permitted during this study is metformin, 
unless glycemic criteria for rescue therapy are met (see Section 7.8.1).  Metformin treatment 
must be stable for at least 3 months prior to screening at a daily dose of 1000 mg/day.  Patients
who enter the study on diet and exercise alone will not be allowed to initiate metformin therapy 
after study entry unless criteria for rescue therapy are met.
Patients who are being treated with metformin upon entering this study should remain on the 
same (or equivalent if switching to sustained release) metformin dose throughout the course of 
the study unless a change in dose is required to protect patient safety.
If a patient switches from the immediate-release formulation of metformin to the 
sustained-release formulation, the change will be on a milligram-per-milligram basis.
In certain situations (such as during a hospitalization or perioperatively), it may be necessary for 
a patient to be treated with insulin(s).  Treatment with insulin will be allowed for up to 
14 consecutive days prior to or during the trial.  If a patient requires treatment with insulin for 
more than 14 consecutive days, that patient will be considered a “rescue” patient and may remain 
in the study but will not receive additional study drug.
Doses of antihypertensive and lipid-lowering therapies must be stable for 30 days prior to 
screening.  Doses of antihypertensive and lipid-lowering agents should not be changed during 
this study unless necessary to protect patient safety on an emergency basis (e.g., hypertensive 
crisis).
Doses of other prescription medications (e.g., thyroxine, estrogen or progesterone replacement, 
or selective estrogen receptor modulators) for treatment of concurrent medical conditions should 
remain constant during the study whenever possible.
If the need for additional concomitant medication arises, the patient may be continued in the 
study on study medication if, in the investigator’s opinion, the addition of the new medication 
does not pose a safety risk. If an additional concomitant medication is started, the sponsor 
should be informed as soon as possible. Nausea and/or vomiting during this study may be 
treated with antiemetics that do not increase QTc (e.g., cyclizine or meclizine) but should not be 
used prophylactically.  Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (including ibuprofen, 
aspirin), acetaminophen, cough suppressants, antihistamines, vitamin/mineral supplements, 
antibiotics, and topical ointments may be used on an as-needed basis without notifying the 
sponsor and are not restricted by the stable dosing requirements listed above. Any additional 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 37
LY3298176
medication used during the course of the study (including those not requiring sponsor 
notifications) must be documented on the appropriate electronic case report form (eCRF).
Specifically excluded concomitant medications include the following:

Chronic use of drugs that directly reduce GI motility including but not limited to 
anticholinergics, antiemetics, and opiates (e.g., metoclopramide, phenergan, dicyclomine, 
and morphine)

Chronic use of medications that directly promote motility (e.g., bethanechol and 
cisapride)

Prescription or over-the-counter medications to promote weight loss

Systemic glucocorticoid therapy of greater than 14 consecutive days’ duration (with the 
exception of topical, intranasal, intraocular, intra-articular, and inhaled preparations)

Central nervous system stimulants (e.g., Ritalin-SR)

Any drug, other than those provided in this study, that has not received regulatory 
approval.
7.8.
Treatment after the End of the Study
7.8.1. Special Treatment Considerations (Rescue Therapy)
Investigators will be trained on how to apply decision criteria for the timing and method of 
intervention in patients who do not reach glycemic targets during the 26-week treatment period.  
An additional therapeutic intervention should be considered in patients who meet the following 
criteria:

The patients are fully compliant with assigned therapeutic regimen.
AND

In the absence of any acute condition that raises blood glucose either of the following 
occurs:
o
During the first 6 weeks post-randomization: An average fasting glucose 
level above 270 mg/dL (15.0 mmol/L) occurs over at least a 2-week period 
(at least 4 values/week must be available).
OR
o
Any time after the first 6 weeks to 26 weeks post-randomization: An 
average fasting glucose level above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L) occurs over 
at least a 2-week period (at least 4 values/week must be available).
If these conditions are met, then patients may begin treatment with another antihyperglycemic 
agent as determined by their physician.  If treatment with another antihyperglycemic agent is 
instituted, then study drug should be permanently discontinued.  Patients may remain in the study 
for safety follow-up, but the date at which they begin rescue therapy will be the last date for 
collection of efficacy measures.

upper-quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia (>5%)
o
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) >3ULN
o
ALP >2.5ULN and total bilirubin >2x ULN
o
ALP >2.5ULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right quadrant 
pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia (>5%)

Investigator Decision

details)
o
Any other treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), SAE, or clinically
significant laboratory value for which the investigator believes that permanent 
study drug discontinuation is the appropriate measure to be taken.

If the patient, for any reason (including protocol-mandated institution of rescue therapy; 
see Section 7.8.1), requires treatment for greater than 1 week with another therapeutic 
agent that has been demonstrated to be effective for treatment of diabetes.  Also, a change 
in dose of metformin is not allowed (except for incidences of hypoglycemia; see 
Section 7.1).  However, a change to an equivalent dose strength from immediate-release 
to extended-release (or vice versa) formulation is allowed.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol


If the patient intentionally misses 4 or more doses (consecutive or not) of study 
medication or intentionally or repeatedly takes more than the prescribed dose of study 
medication (see Section 9.3).

If the patient develops any exclusion criteria, such as pregnancy or nursing.
If study drug is permanently discontinued, the patient should remain in the study if possible.
8.1.2. Temporary Discontinuation from Study Treatment
After randomization, the investigator may temporarily discontinue study drug, for example, due 
to an AE (e.g., nausea and vomiting), a clinically significant laboratory value, or a natural 
disaster.  If study drug discontinuation is due to an AE, the event is to be followed and 
documented.  Every effort should be made by the investigator to maintain patients in the study 
and to restart study drug promptly after any temporary discontinuation, as soon as it is safe to do 
so.  The dates of study drug discontinuation and restart will be documented.  Patient 
noncompliance should not be recorded as temporary discontinuation of study drug on the eCRF.  
In the event that the patient requires the discontinuation of the study drug, he/she may continue 
participation in the study, attend all visits, and undergo all protocol procedures, and patient data 
from the time of discontinuation of study drug will not be included in the primary analyses.
After study drug discontinuation, patients may commence any standard diabetes therapy in line 
with local or regional standards of care, and as considered appropriate by the investigator.
8.1.3. Discontinuation of Inadvertently Enrolled Patients
The criteria for enrollment must be followed explicitly. If the sponsor or investigator identifies a 
patient who did not meet enrollment criteria and was inadvertently enrolled, notified discussion 
must occur between the sponsor CRP/ clinical research scientist (CRS) and the investigator to 
determine if the patient may continue in the study.  If both agree that it is medically appropriate
to continue, the investigator must obtain documented approval from the sponsor CRP/CRS to 
allow the inadvertently enrolled patient to continue in the study with or without treatment with 
the investigational product.
8.2.
Discontinuation from the Study
Some possible reasons that may lead to permanent discontinuation include the following:

Enrollment in any other clinical trial involving an investigational product or enrollment in 
any other type of medical research judged not to be scientifically or medically compatible 
with this study

Sponsor decision
o
Participation in the study needs to be stopped for medical, safety, regulatory, or 
other reasons consistent with applicable laws, regulations, and Good Clinical 
Practice (GCP).

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 40
LY3298176

Investigator decision
o
The investigator decides that the patient should be discontinued from the study

Subject decision
o
The patient requests to be withdrawn from the study.
Patients who discontinue the study early will have end-of-study procedures performed as shown 
in the Schedule of Activities (Section 2).
8.3.
Lost to Follow-Up
A patient will be considered lost to follow-up if he/she repeatedly fails to return for scheduled 
visits and is unable to be contacted by the study site.  Site personnel are expected to make 
diligent attempts to contact patients who fail to return for a scheduled visit or were otherwise 
unable to be followed up by the site.
Site personnel, or an independent third party, will attempt to collect the vital status of the patient 
within legal and ethical boundaries for all patients randomized, including those who did not get 
investigational product.  Public sources may be searched for vital status information.  If vital 
status is determined, this will be documented and the patient will not be considered lost to 
follow-up.
Lilly personnel will not be involved in any attempts to collect vital status information.

Study Assessments and Procedures
Section 2 lists the Schedule of Activities, with the study procedures and their timing (including 
tolerance limits for timing).
Appendix 2 lists the laboratory tests that will be performed for this study.
Unless otherwise stated in the subsections below, all samples collected for specified laboratory 
tests will be destroyed within 60 days of receipt of confirmed test results.  Certain samples may 
be retained for a longer period, if necessary, to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or 
laboratory certification standards.
9.1.
Efficacy Assessments
9.1.1. Primary Efficacy Assessments
The primary efficacy measure is HbA1c, as determined by the central laboratory.  Blood samples 
for HbA1c measurements will be collected at specific clinic visits as summarized in Section 2.
9.1.2. Secondary Efficacy Assessments
The following secondary efficacy measures will be collected at the times shown in Section 2.

Body weight: Patients will be weighed on an electronic scale in a light hospital gown at 
approximately the same time in the morning after an overnight fast and evacuation of any 
bowel and bladder contents (See Appendix 8).  The scale’s performance will be 
monitored at least monthly using standard weights, and records of these assessments will 
be kept in the study binder.

HbA1c

FBG

Serum lipids, circulating biomarkers (including fasting insulin, glucagon, lipids, free fatty 
acids, glycerol, -hydroxy butyrate, fibroblast growth factor-21 [FGF-21], and 
adiponectin).

Waist circumference:  Waist circumference should be measured at the midpoint between 
the lower margin of the least palpable rib and the top of the iliac crest.  The patient
should stand with feet close together, arms at the side and body weight evenly distributed, 
and should wear little clothing. The patient should be relaxed, and the measurements 
should be taken at the end of a normal expiration.  The measurement should be repeated.  
If the difference between the 2 measurements exceeds 1 cm, the 2 measurements should 
be repeated.
9.1.2.1.
Exploratory Efficacy Assessments

Seven-point SMBG profiles consisting of measurements obtained before each meal, 
approximately 2 hours after each meal, and at bedtime on a day during the week before 
the scheduled clinic visit.  Patients will record their SMBG levels in their diaries, 
according to instructions.  The complete 7-point profile must be collected on a single day.  

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 42
LY3298176
If a patient does not complete the entire profile on a single day, all 7 points must be 
collected on a subsequent day.
9.1.3. Appropriateness of Assessments
All efficacy measures are widely used and generally recognized as reliable, accurate, and 
relevant with respect to the management of T2DM.
9.2.
Adverse Events
Investigators are responsible for monitoring the safety of patients who have entered this study 
and for alerting Lilly or its designee to any event that seems unusual, even if this event may be 
considered an unanticipated benefit to the patient.
The investigator is responsible for the appropriate medical care of patients during the study.
Investigators must document their review of each laboratory safety report.
The investigator remains responsible for following, through an appropriate health care option, 
AEs that are serious or otherwise medically important, considered related to the investigational 
product or the study, or that caused the patient to discontinue the investigational product before 
completing the study.  The patient should be followed until the event resolves, stabilizes with 
appropriate diagnostic evaluation, or is reasonably explained.  The frequency of follow-up 
evaluations of the AE is left to the discretion of the investigator.
Lack of drug effect is not an AE in clinical studies, because the purpose of the clinical study is to 
establish drug effect.
After the ICF is signed, study site personnel will record via CRF the occurrence and nature of 
each patient’s preexisting conditions, including clinically significant signs and symptoms of the 
disease under treatment in the study.  In addition, site personnel will record any change in the 
condition(s) and any new conditions as AEs. Investigators should record their assessment of the 
potential relatedness of each AE to protocol procedure or investigational product via CRF.
The investigator will interpret and document whether or not an AE has a reasonable possibility 
of being related to study treatment, study device, or a study procedure, taking into account the 
disease, concomitant treatment, or pathologies.
A “reasonable possibility” means that there is a cause-and-effect relationship between the 
investigational product, study device, and/or study procedure and the AE.
The investigator answers yes/no when making this assessment.
In addition to records of observations made at specific times, unexpected signs and symptoms 
and concomitant medications will be recorded in the clinical trial records throughout the study.
Planned surgeries and nonsurgical interventions should not be reported as AEs unless the 
underlying medical condition has worsened during the course of the study.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 43
LY3298176
If a patient’s investigational product is discontinued as a result of an AE, study site personnel 
must report this to Lilly or its designee via CRF, clarifying if possible the circumstances leading 
to any dosage modifications or discontinuations of treatment.
If the AE or SAE is believed to have been caused by a device issue, in addition to recording the 
relatedness in the CRF, a product complaint must also be reported.
9.2.1. Serious Adverse Events
An SAE is any AE from this study that results in one of the following outcomes:

Death

Initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization

A life-threatening experience (i.e., immediate risk of dying)

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

Congenital anomaly/birth defect

Considered significant by the investigator for any other reason:  important 
medical events that may not result in death, be life threatening, or require 
hospitalization may be considered serious, based upon appropriate medical 
judgment.

When a condition related to the investigational device necessitates medical or 
surgical intervention to preclude either permanent impairment of a body function 
or permanent damage to a body structure, the serious outcome of “required 
intervention” will be assigned.
Although all AEs occurring after signing the ICF are recorded in the CRF, SAE reporting begins 
after the patient has signed the ICF and has received investigational product.  However, if an 
SAE occurs after signing the ICF, but prior to receiving investigational product, it needs to be 
reported ONLY if it is considered reasonably possibly related to study procedure.
Study site personnel must alert Lilly or its designee of any SAE within 24 hours of investigator 
awareness of the event via a sponsor-approved method.  If alerts are issued via telephone, they 
are to be immediately followed by official notification on study-specific SAE forms.  This 
24-hour notification requirement refers to the initial SAE information and all follow-up SAE 
information.
Pregnancy (during maternal or paternal exposure to investigational product) does not meet the 
definition of an AE.  However, to fulfill regulatory requirements, any pregnancy should be 
reported following the SAE process to collect data on the outcome for both mother and fetus.
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek AEs or SAEs in subjects once they have 
discontinued and/or completed the study (the patient summary CRF has been completed).  
However, if the investigator learns of any SAE, including a death, at any time after a subject has 
been discharged from the study, and he/she considers the event reasonably possibly related to the 
study treatment or study participation, the investigator must promptly notify Lilly.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol

LY3298176
9.2.1.1.
Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions
Suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs) are serious events that are not listed 
in the IB and that the investigator identifies as related to investigational product or procedure.  
United States 21 CFR 312.32 and European Union Clinical Trial Directive 2001/20/EC and the 
associated detailed guidances or national regulatory requirements in participating countries 
require the reporting of SUSARs. Lilly has procedures that will be followed for the recording 
and expedited reporting of SUSARs that are consistent with global regulations and the associated 
detailed guidances.
9.2.1.2.
Adverse Events of Special Interest
The following Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) of varying clinical significance will be 
used to determine the tolerability of LY3298176 over the range of doses selected for this clinical 
trial.  All AESIs should be captured and reported to Lilly on the AE eCRF or on a specific eCRF, 
if applicable (see below).  Any AESI that meets the definition of an SAE (see Section 9.2.1) 
must be reported as an SAE.
When any one of the following events occur, Lilly or its designee must be alerted immediately, 
whether it is assessed as an SAE or not:

Confirmed pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer

Any severe injection site reaction or 2 or more moderate injection site reactions 
occurring a week or more apart

Any study drug-related hypersensitivity reaction

Any other TEAE, SAE, or clinically significant laboratory value for which the 
investigator believes that permanent study drug discontinuation is the appropriate 
measure to be taken.
9.2.1.2.1. Injection Site Reactions
All injection site reactions and information regarding their time of day, time relative to injection, 
size, amount of erythema, induration, and pruritus, as well as severity, will be recorded on 
specific CRFs.  In addition, if the reaction is clinically significant, the site should attempt to 
contact the sponsor for potential follow-up procedures.  Injection site reactions do not need to be 
recorded as AEs as well unless they meet SAE criteria.
9.2.1.2.2. Hypersensitivity Reactions
All hypersensitivity reactions will be reported by the investigator as either AEs or, if any serious 
criterion is met, as SAEs.  Study drug should be temporarily discontinued for any individual 
suspected of having a severe or serious allergic/hypersensitivity reaction to study drug.  Study 
drug may be restarted if, in the opinion of the investigator, the event was not related to study 
drug and when/if it is safe to do so.  If study drug is permanently discontinued, the patient should 
remain in the study.
9.2.1.2.3. Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia episodes will be recorded on a specific eCRF. Information regarding severity, 
time of day, and investigator’s opinion of relatedness to study drug and procedure will be 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 45
LY3298176
recorded.  Hypoglycemia episodes should not be recorded as AEs unless the event meets serious 
criteria.  Hypoglycemia will be classified as follows (American Diabetes Association 2005):

Documented Symptomatic Hypoglycemia:  Any time a patient feels that he/she is 
experiencing symptoms and/or signs associated with hypoglycemia and has a plasma 
glucose level of 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL)

Asymptomatic Hypoglycemia:  An event not accompanied by typical symptoms of 
hypoglycemia, but with 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) plasma glucose.

Severe Hypoglycemia:  An episode requiring the assistance of another person to actively 
administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions.  These episodes may be 
associated with sufficient neuroglycopenia to induce seizure or coma.  Plasma glucose 
measurements may not be available during such an event, but neurological recovery 
attributable to the restoration of plasma glucose to normal is considered sufficient 
evidence that the event was induced by a low plasma glucose concentration.

Nocturnal Hypoglycemia:  Any hypoglycemic event that occurs between bedtime and 
waking

Probable Symptomatic Hypoglycemia:  An event during which symptoms of 
hypoglycemia are not accompanied by a plasma glucose determination (but that was 
presumably caused by a plasma glucose concentration 3.9 mmol/L [70 mg/dL]).
9.2.1.2.4. Nausea, Vomiting, and Diarrhea
Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea events will be recorded on a specific eCRF.  They should not be 
recorded as AEs unless the event meets an SAE criterion.  For each event, assessment of severity, 
duration, and Investigator’s opinion of relatedness to study drug and protocol procedure will be 
captured.
9.2.1.2.5. Acute Pancreatitis
Acute pancreatitis is defined as an AE of interest for this study. Acute pancreatitis is an acute 
inflammatory process of the pancreas that may also involve peripancreatic tissues and/or remote 
organ systems(Banks et al. 2006). The diagnosis of acute pancreatitis requires 2 of the following 
3 features:

abdominal pain, characteristic of acute pancreatitis (generally located in the 
epigastrium and radiates to the back in approximately half the cases [Banks 
et al. 2006; Koizumi et al. 2006]; the pain is often associated with nausea and 
vomiting);

serum amylase (total and/or pancreatic) and/or lipase 3ULN;

characteristic findings of acute pancreatitis on computed tomography (CT) 
scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
If acute pancreatitis is suspected, appropriate laboratory tests (including levels of pancreatic 
amylase and lipase) should be obtained via the central laboratory (and locally, if needed). 
Imaging studies, such as abdominal CT scan with or without contrast, MRI, or gallbladder 
ultrasound, should be performed.  If laboratory values and/or abdominal imaging support the 
diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, the patient must discontinue therapy with investigational product,

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 46
LY3298176
but will continue in the study on another glucose-lowering regimen (see Section 7.8.1 for details 
on rescue intervention).  The most appropriate diabetes therapeutic regimen will be decided by 
the investigator, based on the patient’s clinical status.  A review of the patient’s concomitant 
medications should be conducted to assess any potential causal relationship with pancreatitis.
Each case of AE of pancreatitis must be reported. If typical signs and/or symptoms of 
pancreatitis are present and confirmed by laboratory values (lipase or amylase [total and/or 
pancreatic]) and imaging studies, the event must be reported as an SAE. For a potential case that 
does not meet all of these criteria, it is up to the investigator to determine the seriousness of the 
case (AE or SAE) and the relatedness of the event to study drug.
In addition to the diagnostic assessment in patients who develop symptoms of acute pancreatitis, 
each patient will have measurements of pancreatic amylase and lipase at screening, baseline, and 
at each non-PK-specific visit to assess any potential effects of LY3298176 on the exocrine 
pancreas (refer to Section 2, Schedule of Activities).  Further diagnostic assessment per Lilly 
algorithm for assessment of asymptomatic pancreatic hyperenzymemia will be required 
whenever lipase and/or pancreatic amylase are 3ULN at any time during the study.  If this 
situation occurs at Visit 801 (Week 30), the patient will be required to undergo this additional 
workup, and the data will be collected in the clinical trial database.
All suspected cases of acute or chronic pancreatitis, as well as cases of confirmed lipase or 
pancreatic amylase values 3ULN, will be adjudicated by an independent committee of expert 
physicians. In addition, AEs of severe or serious abdominal pain of unknown etiology will also 
be submitted to the adjudication committee to assess for possible pancreatitis or other pancreatic 
disease. Relevant data from patients with acute or chronic pancreatitis, those with severe or 
serious abdominal pain, and those that undergo additional assessments due to confirmed 
hyperenzymemia will be entered into a specifically designed eCRF page by study site or Lilly 
staff. The adjudication committee representative will enter the results of adjudication in a 
corresponding eCRF page.
9.2.1.2.6. Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events
Deaths (CV and non-CV), nonfatal MIs, supraventricular arrhythmias, and nonfatal strokes that 
occur during the treatment period or follow-up period will be adjudicated by an independent 
adjudication committee in compliance with a study-specific adjudication charter.  Investigative 
sites will also be asked to submit any cases of TIA or hospitalization for unstable angina for 
adjudication as well to ensure that all true stroke and MI events are captured.  Hospitalizations 
for heart failure and coronary interventions (such as coronary artery bypass graft or percutaneous 
coronary intervention) will also be submitted for adjudication.
Cardiovascular event definitions will be based on the Standardized Definitions for 
Cardiovascular and Stroke Endpoint Events in Clinical Trials (Hicks et al. 2015) and the 
ESC/ACCF/AHA/WHF Expert Consensus Document Third Universal Definition of Myocardial 
Infarction (Thygesen et al. 2012).  An adjudication committee will enter the results of 
adjudication in the corresponding eCRF page.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol

LY3298176
9.2.1.2.7. Thyroid C-Cell Hyperplasia and C-Cell Neoplasms
Individuals with personal or family history of certain thyroid or nonthyroid endocrine 
abnormalities or certain preexisting laboratory and genetic characteristics will be excluded from 
the study (see Section 6.2).  The assessment of thyroid safety during the trial will include 
reporting of thyroid TEAEs and measurements of calcitonin according to Section 2 at screening, 
baseline, and Visits 11 and 16 (Months 3 and 6) or ET visit.  The purpose of calcitonin 
measurements is to assess the potential of LY3298176 to affect thyroid C-cell function, which 
includes development of C-cell hyperplasia and neoplasms.
Patients who develop serum calcitonin increases 50% of the mean of the baseline and screening 
values AND an absolute value 20 pg/mL and <35 pg/mL at Visits 11 and 16 (Months 3 and 6) 
will be asked to repeat the measurement within 1 month.  If this repeat value is increasing (10% 
increase), the patient will be encouraged to undergo additional endocrine assessment and longer
term follow-up by an endocrinologist to exclude a serious adverse effect on the gland.
Patients with an increase in serum calcitonin 50% of the mean of the baseline and screening 
values AND an absolute value 35 pg/mL at Visits 9 and 12 (Months 3 and 6) will be 
recommended to immediately undergo additional endocrine assessments and longer term 
follow-up by an endocrinologist.
For patients who require additional endocrine assessment because of increased calcitonin 
concentration per criteria provided in this section, data from the follow-up assessment will be 
collected in the specific section of the eCRF.
9.2.2. Complaint Handling
Lilly collects product complaints on investigational products and drug delivery systems used in 
clinical studies in order to ensure the safety of study participants, monitor quality, and to 
facilitate process and product improvements.
Patients will be instructed to contact the investigator as soon as possible if he/she has a complaint 
or problem with the investigational product or drug delivery system so that the situation can be 
assessed.
9.3.
Treatment of Overdose
For patients with suspected or confirmed overdose with LY3298176 or dulaglutide, there is no 
specific antidote.  The patient should be watched for GI symptoms and hypoglycemia.  
Treatment is supportive, depending on the patient’s symptoms.
Refer to the IB for LY3298176 and to the Product Label for dulaglutide.
9.4.
Safety
9.4.1. Electrocardiograms
For each patient, 12-lead ECGs should be collected according to Section 2. Patients must be 
supine for approximately 5 to 10 minutes before ECG collection and remain supine, but awake, 
during ECG collection.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 48
LY3298176
Electrocardiograms should be recorded in triplicate according to study-specific recommendations 
included in the Manual of Operations for the study, using standardized equipment provided by 
the sponsor.
Consecutive replicate ECGs will be obtained at approximately 1-minute intervals.  
Electrocardiograms may be obtained at additional times, when deemed clinically necessary.  
Collection of more ECGs than expected at a particular time point is allowed when needed to 
ensure high-quality records.
Electrocardiograms will initially be interpreted by a qualified physician (the investigator or 
qualified designee) at the site as soon after the time of ECG collection as possible, and ideally 
while the patient is still present, to determine whether the subject meets entry criteria and for 
immediate subject management, should any clinically relevant findings be identified.  Any 
clinically significant findings from ECGs that result in a diagnosis and that occur after the patient 
receives the first dose of the investigational treatment should be reported to Lilly or its designee 
as an AE.  The investigator (or qualified designee) is responsible for determining if any change 
in patient management is needed, and must document his/her review of the ECG printed at the 
time of evaluation.
After enrollment, if a clinically significant increase in the QT/QTc interval from baseline or 
other clinically significant quantitative or qualitative change from baseline is identified, the 
patient will be assessed by the investigator for symptoms (e.g., palpitations, near syncope, and 
syncope) and to determine whether the patient can continue in the study.  The investigator or 
qualified designee is responsible for determining if any change in patient management is needed 
and must document his/her review of the ECG printed at the time of evaluation from at least 1 of 
the replicate ECGs from each time point.
All digital ECGs will be obtained using centrally provided ECG machines and will be 
electronically transmitted to a designated central ECG laboratory.  The central ECG laboratory 
will perform a basic quality control check (e.g., demographics and study details) and then store 
the ECGs in a database.  At a future time, the stored ECG data may be overread by a cardiologist 
at the central ECG laboratory for further evaluation of machine-read measurements or to meet 
regulatory requirements.
The machine-read ECG intervals and heart rate may be used for data analysis and report-writing 
purposes, unless a cardiologist overreading of the ECGs is conducted prior to completion of the 
final study report (in which case, the overread data would be used).
In addition, for each patient, a single ECG will be recorded at screening and if the patient 
discontinues from the study prematurely (Section 2) for immediate patient management. These 
ECGs will be stored at the investigation site.
Any treatment-emergent clinically significant ECG finding resulting in a diagnosis should be 
reported as an AE in the eCRF.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 49
LY3298176
9.4.2. Vital Signs
Sitting BP and PR will be measured using standardized equipment provided by the sponsor 
according to Section 2. Vital sign measurements should be taken before obtaining an ECG 
tracing and before collection of blood samples for laboratory testing, at visits where required (see
Section 2). The participant should be required to sit quietly for 5 minutes before vital sign 
measurements are taken. An appropriately sized cuff (cuff bladder encircling at least 80% of the 
arm) should be used to ensure the accuracy of BP measurements.  The arm used for the BP 
measurement should be supported at heart level. At Visit 1 (screening), to determine which arm 
should be used to collect BP and PR throughout the study, BP and PR will be measured once in 
each arm, and the arm that had the higher systolic BP should be used to collect all 
3 measurements of both BP and PR at all study visits.  For each parameter (PR, systolic BP, and 
diastolic BP), 3 measurements will be taken using the same arm; the recordings should be taken 
at least 1 minute apart, and each measurement of sitting PR and BP will be recorded in the eCRF.  
Any AE related to changes in BP and PR should be reported.
9.4.3. Laboratory Tests
For each patient, laboratory tests detailed in Appendix 2 should be conducted according to
Section 2.
Any clinically significant findings from laboratory tests that result in a diagnosis and that occur 
after the patient receives the first dose of investigational product should be reported to Lilly or its 
designee as an AE.
9.4.4. Safety Monitoring
Lilly will periodically review evolving aggregate safety data within the study by appropriate 
methods.  In addition, the study team will review safety reports in a blinded fashion according to 
the schedule provided in the Trial-Level Safety Review plan.  Lilly will also review SAEs within 
time frames mandated by company procedures.  The Lilly CRP/CRS will, as appropriate, consult 
with the functionally independent Global Patient Safety therapeutic area physician or clinical 
scientist.
In addition, specific safety measures are included in the protocol to ensure appropriate 
monitoring of pancreatic, thyroid, and liver safety.  Laboratory findings that trigger pancreatic 
and thyroid safety monitoring per Lilly standards are provided in Sections 9.2.1.2.5 and
9.2.1.2.7, respectively.  Details of liver safety monitoring are provided in Section 8.1.1.  If a 
study patient experiences elevated ALT 3ULN or elevated total bilirubin 2ULN, clinical 
and laboratory monitoring should be initiated by the investigator.  Details for hepatic monitoring 
depend upon the severity and persistence of observed laboratory test abnormalities.  To ensure 
patient safety and comply with regulatory guidance, the investigator is to consult with the Lilly 
CRP/CRS regarding collection of specific recommended clinical information and follow-up 
laboratory tests (see Appendix 4).

9.5.
Pharmacokinetics
Blood samples for PK analyses will be collected from all randomized patients in accordance with 
Section 2 and Appendix 6 and at early termination.  However, only samples from patients 
assigned to treatment with LY3298176 will be analyzed for drug concentration.

Predose PK samples will be collected only at Weeks 1, 8, 12, and 26.

Following dose at Weeks 1, 2, 4, and 12, a postdose PK sample will be collected.  
Patients may have their PK sample collected any time within the pre-specified collection 
window at their convenience.
o
At Weeks 1 and 2 all patients will have a PK sample collected within a time 
window of 1 to 48 hours (within 2 days of dose).
o
At Week 4 all patients will have a PK sample collected within a time window of  
48 to 72 hours (2 to 3 days postdose).
o
At Week 12 all patients will have a PK sample collected within a time window of 
96 to 168 hours (i.e., any time between 4 days after study drug administration up 
to just prior to the next dose of study drug administration).  

The patient will be required to come to the site for additional PK-specific visits 
dependent on the time window of PK sampling.
Date and time of each sample and the most recent LY3298176 dose prior to PK blood draw must 
be recorded.
Drug concentration information that would unblind the study will not be reported to study sites 
or blinded personnel while the study is blinded.
Bioanalytical samples collected to measure study drug concentration will be retained for a 
maximum of 1 year following the last patient visit for the study.
9.6.
Pharmacodynamics
Samples to evaluate the PD properties of LY3298176 are included in the efficacy measures and 
not applicable here.
9.7.
Pharmacogenetics
9.7.1. Whole Blood Samples for Pharmacogenetic Research
A whole blood sample will be collected for pharmacogenetic analyses as specified in Section 2
where local regulations allow.
Samples will not be used to conduct unspecified disease or population genetic research either 
now or in the future.  Samples will be used to investigate variable response to LY3298176 and
dulaglutide, and to investigate genetic variants thought to play a role in T2DM and related 
complications.  Assessment of variable response may include evaluation of AEs or differences in 
efficacy.  
All samples will be coded with the patient number.  These samples and any data generated can 
be linked back to the patient only by the investigator site personnel.

Samples will be retained for a maximum of 15 years after the last patient visit for the study, or 
for a shorter period if local regulations and/or ERBs/investigational review boards impose 
shorter time limits, at a facility selected by Lilly or its designee. This retention period enables 
use of new technologies, response to regulatory questions, and investigation of variable response 
that may not be observed until later in the development of LY3298176 or after LY3298176 
becomes commercially available.
Molecular technologies are expected to improve during the 15-year storage period and therefore 
cannot be specifically named.  However, existing approaches include whole genome or exome 
sequencing, genome-wide association studies, and candidate gene studies.  Regardless of 
technology utilized, genotyping data generated will be used only for the specific research scope 
described in this section.
9.8.
Biomarkers
Collection of samples for other biomarker research is part of this study.  Blood samples will be 
collected as specified in Section 2.
Biomarker research is performed to address questions of relevance to drug disposition, target 
engagement, PD, mechanism of action, variability of patient response (including safety), and 
clinical outcome.  Sample collection is incorporated into clinical studies to enable examination of 
these questions through measurements of biomolecules, including DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, 
and other cellular elements.
Serum and plasma ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and P800 samples for 
nonpharmacogenetic biomarker research will be collected at the times specified in the Schedule 
of Activities (Section 2) where local regulations allow.
Samples will be used for research on the drug target, disease process, variable response to 
LY3298176, pathways associated with diabetes, mechanism of action of LY3298176, and/or 
research method or in validating diagnostic tools or assay(s) related to diabetes.
Samples will be retained for a maximum of 15 years after the last patient visit for the study, or 
for a shorter period if local regulations and ERBs impose shorter time limits, at a facility selected 
by Lilly.  This retention period enables use of new technologies, response to regulatory 
questions, and investigation of variable response that may not be observed until later in the 
development of LY3298176 or after LY3298176 becomes commercially available.
9.8.1. Samples for Immunogenicity Research
Samples from patients in each treatment arm will be tested for the development of 
treatment-emergent LY3298176 antidrug antibodies (ADA), defined as 4-fold increase in titer 
from baseline.  A blood sample will be collected at specific study visits according to the 
Schedule of Activities (Section 2).
Treatment-emergent positive LY3298176 ADA samples will be evaluated for their ability to 
neutralize the activity of assigned treatment (LY3298176-neutralizing antibodies).  Positive

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 52
LY3298176
LY3298176 ADA samples may also be tested for cross-reactivity with native GLP-1 and GIP, 
and if positive, then for neutralizing antibodies against native GLP-1 and GIP.
All patients will have an ADA sample measured at the follow-up visit (Visit 801) approximately
1 month after the last dose of LY3298176.  A risk-based approach will be used to monitor 
patients who develop treatment-emergent antidrug antibodies (TE-ADA) (defined as >4-fold titer 
increase over baseline) after treatment with LY3298176.  Clinically significant TE-ADA will be 
defined as any TE-ADA at the follow-up visit (Visit 801) with:

A high (1280) or increasing titer

An association of TE-ADA with a moderate to severe injection site reaction or 
infusion-related reaction

Cross-reactive and neutralizing binding of an ADA with endogenous GLP-1 or GIP.
Patients who have clinically significant TE-ADA will be followed with ADA testing every 
3 months for approximately 1 year or until the ADA titers have returned to baseline ADA titer 
(defined as ADA titer within 2-fold of baseline).
Patients followed for at least 1 year since last dose who have not returned to baseline, as defined 
above, will be assessed for safety concerns and, if no clinical sequelae is recognized by the 
clinical team, no further follow-up will be required.
Patients who have clinical sequelae that are considered potentially related to the presence of 
TE-ADA may also be asked to return for additional follow-up testing.
Samples will be retained for a maximum of 15 years after the last patient visit for the study, or 
for a shorter period if regulations and ERBs impose shorter time limits, at a facility selected by 
Lilly.  The duration allows the sponsor to respond to future regulatory requests related to 
LY3298176.
9.9.
Health Economics
Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the Ability to Perform Physical Activities of 
Daily Living (APPADL) and Impact of Weight on Self-Perception (IW-SP) questionnaires, 
which are self-rated questionnaires that provide standardized measures of patients’ perceived 
current health status.  Patients will complete the questionnaires at the specific clinic visits 
summarized in Section 2.  At these visits, the questionnaires should be completed before any 
other study procedures (if the patient is not adversely affected by their fasted state) or completed 
after the patient has sufficiently recovered from the preceding visit procedures.

The APPADL questionnaire has demonstrated test–retest reliability, validity, and 
responsiveness to weight loss in individuals with T2DM, thereby making it useful in 
evaluating weight loss interventions (Hayes et al. 2011, 2012).  The APPADL contains 
7 items that assess how difficult it is for patients to engage in certain activities considered 
to be integral to normal daily life, such as walking, standing, and climbing stairs.  Items 
are scored on a 5-point numeric rating scale where 5 = “not at all difficult” and 
1 = “unable to do.”  A raw overall score is calculated by summing the scores of the 
7 items.  A transformed overall score is obtained by linearly transforming the raw overall 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 53
LY3298176
score to a 0 to 100 scale.  Higher raw overall scores and lower transformed overall scores 
indicate better ability to perform activities of daily living.

The IW-SP questionnaire contains 3 items that assess how often the patient’s body 
weight affects how happy they are with their appearance and how often they feel 
self-conscious when out in public (Hayes and DeLozier 2015).  Items are scored on a 
5-point numeric rating scale where 5 = never and 1 = always.  A raw overall score is 
calculated by summing the scores of the 3 items.  A transformed total score is obtained 
by linearly transforming the raw total score to a 0 to 100 scale.  Higher raw overall score 
and lower transformed overall score indicate better self-perception.

10. Statistical Considerations
10.1. Sample Size Determination
Approximately 300 patients will be randomized to placebo, dulaglutide, or 1 of 4 LY3298176
treatment arms assuming a 10% dropout rate resulting in approximately 45 completers per arm.
The Bayesian approach using a dose–response model with respect to an HbA1c change from 
baseline to 26 weeks will provide approximately 98% probability to show with 90% confidence 
that at least 1 LY3298176 dose has superior glycemic control over placebo with a superiority 
bound of 0.8%.  The sample size also provides more than 95% probability to show with 80% 
confidence that at least 1 LY3298176 dose has noninferior glycemic control compared with 
dulaglutide from baseline to 26 weeks with a 0.3% noninferiority bound. This assumes a change 
from baseline glycemic effect profile shown in Table GPGB.4, and a standard deviation (SD) of 
1.0%.
In addition, this sample size also provides approximately 89% probability to show with 60% 
confidence that at least 1 LY3298176 dose has superior weight loss compared with dulaglutide 
from baseline to 26 weeks with a superiority bound of 2 kg.  This assumes a change from 
baseline weight loss profile shown in Table GPGB.4, and a SD of 6 kg.

10.3. Statistical Analyses
10.3.1. General Statistical Considerations
Statistical analysis of this study will be the responsibility of Lilly or its designee.  Any change to 
the statistical methods described in the protocol will require an amendment only if it changes a 
principal feature of the protocol.  Any other change to the statistical analyses and the justification 
for the change will be described in the statistical analysis plan (SAP) and/or clinical study report.  
Additional exploratory analyses of the data may be performed as deemed appropriate.  Analyses 
will be fully detailed in the SAP.
The intention-to-treat (ITT) population is defined as all randomized patients.  Statistical analyses 
(including the primary analysis) will be conducted on the modified ITT (mITT) population.  The 
mITT population is defined as all randomized patients with at least 1 post-baseline measurement 
according to the treatment the patients were assigned.  The per-protocol (PP) population is 
defined as all randomized patients who were compliant with study drug and completed the 
protocol and is a subset of the mITT population.  The safety population is defined as all 
randomized patients who have received at least 1 dose of study drug.  Safety analyses will be 
performed on the safety population.
Some efficacy measures will also be analyzed on the PP dataset.  The PP analysis will include 
patients who meet the following additional criteria:

Have been appropriately randomized

Have not discontinued from the study for any of the early discontinuation criteria

Have not missed 4 or more doses during the treatment period

Have not been rescued or taken a concomitant antihyperglycemic medication besides 
metformin for more than 7 cumulative days during the treatment period
Patients who have had rescue therapy will be included in the mITT population, but not the PP 
population. The efficacy measures will be censored at the time of rescue for analyses using 
mITT population.
No adjustments for multiplicity will be performed.
All tests of treatment effects will be conducted at a one-sided alpha level of 0.1 and/or one-sided 
90% confidence interval, unless otherwise stated.
The baseline value used for the analyses will be the last scheduled baseline value obtained for 
each patient prior to randomization.
The primary analysis of the primary endpoint and possibly other Bayesian analyses may be 
computed using Fixed and Adaptive Clinical Trial Simulator software.  Remaining summaries 
and analyses will be performed using the SAS System.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 56
LY3298176
10.3.2. Treatment Group Comparability
10.3.2.1. Patient Disposition
All patients who discontinue the study will be identified, and the extent of their participation in 
the study will be reported.  If known, a reason for their discontinuation will be given.  The 
primary reasons for discontinuation will be listed and will be summarized by treatment.  The 
percentage of patients discontinuing from each treatment will be compared using the Fisher’s 
exact test.
10.3.2.2. Patient Characteristics
Demographic and baseline characteristics will be summarized by treatment group.  Categorical 
variables will be summarized by frequencies and percentages.  For categorical variables, 
comparisons between treatment groups will be assessed using a Pearson Chi-Square test.  
Continuous variables will be summarized by means and SDs.  For continuous variables, 
comparisons between the treatment groups will be performed using a 1-way analysis of variance 
with treatment as the fixed effect.
10.3.2.3. Concomitant Therapy
Listings and summary of concomitant therapies will be provided by treatment group.
10.3.2.4. Treatment Compliance
Treatment compliance will be listed using all randomized patients and summarized using the 
mITT population.  For a given patient, overall compliance for treatment period is defined as not 
missing 2 or more consecutive doses of the assigned treatment or missing 4 or more at any point 
in the study.  Patients who miss 4 or more doses at any point during the study will be considered 
significantly noncompliant and will be permanently discontinued from study medication.  These 
patients will not be included in the PP analysis.
10.3.3. Efficacy Analyses
10.3.3.1. Primary Analyses
The primary efficacy outcome is HbA1c changes from baseline to the 26-week endpoints.
The primary analyses will be performed on the mITT analysis set using a Bayesian dose–
response model.  The model will include LY3298176 doses and placebo.
The Hierarchical Logistic Model will be used as the dose–response model for HbA1c change 
from baseline to the 26-week endpoint.  Priors for modeled dose–response will follow a normal 
distribution.  Priors for variance will follow inverse gamma distributions.  The placebo group 
will be modeled with the LY3298176 doses, whereas dulaglutide will be modeled separately.  
Details of these prior distributions will be provided in the SAP.
The primary analysis will consist of this dose–response model and examining the probability 
each LY3298176 dose has demonstrated superiority relative to placebo using a superiority 
margin of 0.8%.  Analyses will also consist of the 90% one-sided credible interval for the 
difference in mean response for each LY3298176 dose versus placebo at 26 weeks.  No 
adjustment for multiplicity will be performed.  Probabilities based on posterior distributions of 

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 57
LY3298176
each dose group’s mean response exceeding the placebo group’s mean response by clinical 
thresholds of interest (e.g., by 0.6%) will also be provided.
The longitudinal model will be the linear regression longitudinal model.  The observed 26-week 
endpoint will be modeled using a linear regression model from previous time points.  Priors for 
terms in the mean dose–response function will follow a normal distribution.  Priors for variance 
will follow an inverse gamma distribution.  All the doses will be modeled separately using this 
longitudinal model.  Details of these prior distributions will be provided in the SAP.
Descriptive statistics by treatment for HbA1c and HbA1c change from baseline at the 26-week 
endpoint will be presented using all observed data with no imputations and no elimination of 
patients with protocol violations.  The descriptive statistics will be presented by visit and will 
include sample size, mean, SD, median, minimum, and maximum.
10.3.3.2. Supporting Analyses of Primary Outcome
Supportive analyses of the primary efficacy outcome for the mITT dataset will be MMRM using 
restricted maximum likelihood with metformin use (yes/no), treatment, visit, and treatment-by-
visit interaction as fixed effects, HbA1c baseline as a covariate, and patient as a random effect.  
The dependent variable will be the post-baseline change from baseline values.  The unstructured 
covariance matrix will be selected initially.  If the unstructured covariance structure leads to 
nonconvergence, Akaike’s information criterion will be used to select the best covariance 
structure.  The treatment p-value will be used as evidence of difference between active drug and 
placebo, whereas the comparison of least-square (LS) means versus placebo (unadjusted for 
multiple comparisons) will provide magnitude and significance of this difference.
A further robustness check will be made using the PP dataset and applying the same MMRM 
procedure as described in the above paragraph.  Any differences in conclusions will be further 
investigated by examining differences in the mITT and the PP datasets.
The MMRM analysis will be examined for robustness by checking for treatment-by-strata and 
treatment-by-baseline HbA1c interactions in the MMRM model using the mITT dataset.  If any 
of these checks give positive indications, supportive analyses accounting for the identified issues 
will be compared along with the primary analysis.
An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model will be used for the primary efficacy outcome for 
the mITT dataset with fixed effects of metformin use, treatment, and baseline HbA1c as 
covariates.  Missing endpoints will be imputed using last observation carried forward (LOCF).  
For this model, the endpoint is defined as latest HbA1c measurement obtained for a patient in the 
time interval between randomization and 26 weeks after randomization.
10.3.3.3. Secondary Analyses
10.3.3.3.1.Secondary Analysis on Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The secondary analysis of the primary endpoint will consist of the dose–response model, which 
will also be used to examine the probability that any LY3298176 dose has exhibited 
noninferiority in comparison to the dulaglutide dose using a noninferiority margin of 0.3%.  This 
analysis will be used for internal business decisions.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 58
LY3298176
10.3.3.3.2.Analyses on Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
In addition to the primary efficacy analysis of HbA1c, the following secondary efficacy 
outcomes will be analyzed on the mITT population:

Body weight change from baseline to 12 and 26 weeks

Percentage of patient with 5% or greater body weight loss at 26 weeks

Change from baseline of HbA1c at 12 weeks

Percentage of patients with 10% or greater body weight loss at 26 weeks

Percentage of patients reaching the HbA1c target of 6.5% and of 7.0%

Change from baseline of FBG at 12 and 26 weeks

Change from baseline of waist circumference at 12 and 26 weeks
The mean weight change at 12 and 26 weeks as well as the 12-week HbA1c endpoint will be 
analyzed using a similar dose–response model as the primary endpoint.  HbA1c will continue to 
be analyzed using a superiority bound of 0.8% to placebo as well as a noninferiority bound of 
0.3% relative to dulaglutide.  The weight change from baseline at both 12 and 26 weeks will use 
a superiority bound of 2.0 kg.  In addition, supportive analyses of the mean weight change for the 
mITT dataset will be the MMRM similar to that of the primary efficacy outcome.
The percentage of patients with 5% (and with 10%) body weight loss, the percentage of 
patients reaching the HbA1c target of 6.5% (and of 7.0%) at 26 weeks, and the proportion of 
patients requiring rescue therapy will be analyzed using a logistic regression analysis with fixed 
effects of treatment and stratification factors, and baseline as a covariate.
The change from baseline of FBG and waist circumference profiles will be calculated using a 
similar MMRM-based model to the one used for the primary analysis.  The corresponding 
baseline will be used in the model instead of the baseline HbA1c levels.  The MMRM model will 
also include a term for the HbA1c stratification group.
Patients who initiated rescue therapy will be analyzed.  The proportion of such patients in each 
group will be analyzed using a logistic regression analysis with fixed effects of treatment and 
strata.  Time to start of rescue therapy will also be analyzed between the groups using a log-rank 
test.
In addition to change from baseline in weight and waist circumference, change from baseline in 
BMI will be listed and summarized.
Descriptive statistics for each outcome will be presented by treatment group.  For continuous 
variables, the descriptive statistics will include sample size, LS means, LS means standard error, 
mean, SD, median, minimum, and maximum.  For categorical variables, the descriptive statistics 
will include sample size, frequency, and percentage.

10.3.4. Safety Analyses
10.3.4.1. Clinical Evaluation of Safety
The safety population will be used for safety analyses.  Both the overall and the pairwise 
comparisons of each LY3298176 dose versus placebo and dulaglutide will be reported for these 
safety analyses.
Safety measures will include vital signs, body weight, TEAEs (including SAEs and AEs of 
special interest), laboratory measures (including anti-LY3298176 antibodies), and ECGs.  
Summary statistics will be presented by treatment for the safety measures.
The summary statistics for continuous variables will be sample size, mean, SD, median, 
minimum, and maximum.
The summary statistics for categorical variables will be sample size, frequency, and percentage.
Exposure to each therapy during the treatment period of the study will be calculated for each 
patient and summarized by treatment group.
In addition, the following safety outcomes will be analyzed on the mITT population:

Change from baseline to 26 weeks in HDL-C, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL-C

Change from baseline to 12 and 26 weeks in fasting FGF-21, adiponectin, -hydroxy 
butyrate, glucagon, and insulin levels

Percentage of patients requiring rescue therapy
The change from baseline of HDL-C, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C, fasting FGF-21, 
adiponectin, -hydroxy butyrate, glucagon, and insulin levels will be calculated using a similar 
MMRM-based model to the one used for the primary analysis.  The corresponding baseline will 
be used in the model instead of the baseline HbA1c levels.  The MMRM model will also include 
a term for the HbA1c stratification group.
Additional analysis, such as concentration–safety lab plots, may be performed if warranted upon 
review of the data.
10.3.4.2. Adverse Events
Adverse events will be listed by patient, actual term, preferred term, severity, and relationship to 
the treatment.  AEs will be summarized as TEAEs (defined as events that are newly reported 
after randomization or reported to worsen in severity from baseline).  The incidence of patients 
with at least 1 TEAE and the incidence of TEAEs by preferred term and system organ class will 
be presented by treatment group.  The frequency and percentage of TEAEs will be presented.  
The incidence of patients with at least 1 TEAE assessed as possibly related to the investigational 
drug will be summarized by treatment group, in addition to the incidence of these possibly 
related TEAEs by preferred term.  In addition, a summary of TEAEs by severity will be 
presented descriptively by treatment group.
Reported and adjudicated CV, pancreatic, and thyroid-related AEs will be listed by patient, and 
if there are a sufficient number of cases they may be summarized by treatment group.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 60
LY3298176
All SAEs will be listed by patient.  If a sufficient number of SAEs are reported, incidence 
summaries similar to incidence of TEAEs will be included.
Discontinuations due to TEAEs will be listed by patient and summarized by treatment group.
In addition, exposure–response analyses of TEAEs may be performed if necessary.
10.3.4.3. Vital Signs
All vital signs will be listed using all randomized patients.
Descriptive statistics for the actual measurements and changes from baseline for systolic and 
diastolic BP and PR will be presented by treatment arm and visit.  Corresponding figures may be 
presented.
Vital signs will be analyzed using a similar MMRM-based model as for the secondary analysis 
on the primary endpoint.
In addition, exposure–response analysis of vital signs may be performed if deemed necessary.
10.3.4.4. Laboratory Measures
Summary statistics will be provided for laboratory measures, by visit.
A listing of laboratory measurements for individual patients will be presented by visit.  An
additional listing will be presented for all laboratory measurements that are outside the normal 
range.
Descriptive statistics for the laboratory analyses will be presented by treatment group and visit, 
including safety off-treatment visits.
Laboratory analyses with categorical responses will be summarized by visit and treatment group 
using frequency and percentage.
Shift tables will be evaluated at endpoint (LOCF); the maximum/minimum post-baseline 
observation (as applicable for a lab) will be compared to the baseline observation by examining 
the proportion of patients whose test values are within and outside the reference ranges.
10.3.4.5. Evaluation of Immunogenicity
The frequency of antibody formation to LY3298176 will be determined.  If a neutralization assay 
is performed, the frequency of neutralizing antibodies will be determined.  If there are a 
sufficient number of patients with positive antibodies to LY3298176, the change of antibodies 
(negative to positive) will be summarized using shift tables.
The relationship between the presence of antibodies, antibody titers, and clinical parameters 
(e.g., AEs, efficacy measures) may be assessed.  Likewise, the relationship between antibody 
titers, the PK parameters, and PD response to LY3298176 may be assessed.
10.3.4.6. Electrocardiograms
A listing of the individual and averaged ECG measurements, by patient, will be produced.  This 
will include the time elapsed between the onset of ventricular depolarization and the end of 
ventricular repolarization (QT) corrected values described below.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 61
LY3298176
Descriptive statistics for the absolute measurements, outliers, and changes from baseline for 
selected ECG parameters will be presented by treatment arm.  These include the ECG heart rate, 
and the following intervals: QT and QT corrected for heart rate using Fridericia’s formula 
(QTcF).
In addition, LY3298176 concentration–response analysis of QTcF results will be performed as 
well as a categorical analyses of absolute and change from baseline QTc intervals.  Any 
additional ECG analyses will be detailed in the SAP.
10.3.4.7. Adverse Events of Special Interest
Hypoglycemia, hypersensitivity reactions, injection site reactions, acute pancreatitis, major 
adverse CV events, and selected GI events such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are defined as 
AESIs.
Descriptive statistics for the AESIs will be presented by treatment group and visit.  Continuous 
responses will be summarized using sample size, mean, SD, median, minimum, and maximum, 
whereas categorical responses will be summarized using frequencies and percentages.
Continuous elements of AESIs, such as the durations of hypoglycemia and injection site 
reactions, will be analyzed using a similar MMRM-based model as for the secondary analysis on 
the primary endpoint.
Statistical analyses on categorical AESIs will be analyzed using a logistic regression analysis 
with fixed effects of treatment, metformin use, and HbA1c strata.  Additional analyses will be 
run if necessary.
10.3.4.8. Hypoglycemic Episodes
Hypoglycemic episodes will be defined as follows:  documented symptomatic hypoglycemia, 
asymptomatic hypoglycemia, probable symptomatic hypoglycemia, relative hypoglycemia, 
nocturnal hypoglycemia, and severe hypoglycemia.  Total or overall hypoglycemia is defined as 
any event meeting the criteria for documented symptomatic hypoglycemia, asymptomatic 
hypoglycemia, or probable symptomatic hypoglycemia.
The total hypoglycemia monthly rate per patient will be summarized where 1 month is defined as 
a 30-day period.  This will be calculated by dividing the total number of hypoglycemic events by 
the total number of days between visits and multiplying by 30 days.  This rate will also be 
calculated per patient for nocturnal hypoglycemia episodes, and summarized by treatment.
The incidence and rate of total hypoglycemic episodes and nocturnal hypoglycemic episodes will 
be presented for each visit (incidence between visits) and overall.  Nocturnal hypoglycemia 
episodes are episodes that occur between bedtime and waking. The incidence of hypoglycemic 
episodes during a time period on treatment is defined as patients with at least 1 hypoglycemic 
episode occurring within that period of time.  Statistical analyses will be performed for overall 
total hypoglycemia using a logistic regression analysis with fixed effects of treatment, metformin 
use, and HbA1c strata.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol
Page 62
LY3298176
Listings of hypoglycemic episodes and severe hypoglycemic episodes will be presented by visit 
for each patient.  If a sufficient number of severe hypoglycemic episodes are reported, then 
incidence summaries similar to incidence of hypoglycemic episodes will be included.
10.3.5. Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Analyses
LY3298176 concentration data will be analyzed using a population PK approach via nonlinear 
mixed-effects modeling with the NONMEM software. The relationships between LY3298176 
dose and/or concentration and efficacy, tolerability, and safety endpoints will be characterized.
Additionally, the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic patient factors such as age, weight, gender, and 
renal function on PK and/or PD parameters may be examined as needed.  If antidrug antibody 
titers are detected from immunogenicity testing, then the impact of immunogenicity titers on 
LY3298176 PK or any relevant PD parameters may also be examined.
10.3.6. Other Analyses
10.3.6.1. Health Outcome/Quality of Life Analyses
Each instrument is transformed to a single score on a scale from 0 to 100.  Patient-reported 
outcomes endpoint change from baseline at Weeks 12 and 26 will be analyzed using ANCOVA 
with treatment, country, metformin use (Yes/No), gender, and baseline HbA1c as independent 
variables.  Missing observations will be imputed with LOCF.  Any additional analysis on 
patient-reported outcomes will be detailed in the SAP.
10.3.6.2. Subgroup Analyses
Subgroup analyses of important factors, including age, race, ethnicity, gender, duration of 
diabetes, baseline HbA1c (<8.5%, 8.5%), metformin use (Yes/No) at baseline, BMI, and other 
factors to be specified in the SAP are planned for the key outcomes of HbA1c.
These will be conducted using the ANCOVA model with strata, treatment, factor, 
treatment-by-factor interaction as fixed effects, and baseline as covariate.
Other exploratory subgroup analyses may be performed as deemed appropriate.
10.3.6.3. Exploratory Analyses
The change from baseline of 7-point SMBG profiles will be calculated using a similar 
MMRM-based model to the one used for the primary analysis.  The corresponding baseline will 
be used in the model instead of the baseline HbA1c levels.  The MMRM model will also include 
a term for the HbA1c stratification group.
Statistical analyses on categorical exploratory objectives like the effect of intrinsic factors, such 
as baseline levels of endogenous FGF-21, GLP-1, or GIP, on the pharmacologic effects of 
LY3298176 will be done using a logistic regression analysis with fixed effects of treatment, 
metformin use, and HbA1c strata.
Genetic markers will be evaluated for their contribution to the variability of LY3298176
pharmacology and will also be included as covariates in PK/PD model-based analyses if 
applicable.

I8F-MC-GPGB(a) Clinical Protocol

LY3298176
LY3298176 concentration–response analyses of exploratory biomarkers may be performed.
Exploratory analysis on efficacy endpoints such as HbA1c and body weight may be performed 
on dataset that includes data from patients who received rescue therapy.
Other exploratory subgroup analyses may be performed as deemed appropriate.
10.3.7. Interim Analyses
There may be up to 3 interim analyses for this study.  This study will not be stopped for either 
positive efficacy or futility at any interim analysis.  No change in study design will occur based 
on these interim analyses.
The first interim analysis may occur to support evaluation of the titration scheme.  The second 
interim analysis may occur to support Phase 3 dose selection.  The third interim analysis may 
occur when all patients have completed the treatment part of the study (prior to completion of the 
follow-up phase for all patients) and will include all safety, efficacy, and PK data available 
through the 26-week treatment for all patients to confirm Phase 3 doses.
It is not considered a protocol deviation if one or more interim analysis is not performed.  
Detailed information on the interim analyses will be specified in an Assessment Committee 
charter or SAP.

World Health Organization Classification 
Appendix 5.
for Diabetes
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus:  Type 1 diabetes mellitus is judged to be present when the classical 
symptoms of diabetes (thirst, polyuria, wasting and stupor, or coma) are associated with readily 
detectable concentrations of glucose and ketone bodies in the blood and urine.  Insulin treatment 
is necessary not only to control hyperglycemia, but also to prevent spontaneous ketosis and death.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus:  Type 2 diabetes mellitus, although often asymptomatic, may also 
present with classical hyperglycemic symptoms (thirst, polyuria, weight loss), but despite 
hyperglycemia, ketone bodies are present in only low concentrations in the blood and urine.
Coma is rare in type 2 diabetes, but may result from extreme hyperglycemia and 
hyperosmolarity; lactic acidosis or ketoacidosis can also occur in fulminating illness (e.g., severe 
infection or mesenteric artery thrombosis) due to acute increase in insulin requirements, but 
spontaneous ketosis does not occur.  Some patients with type 2 diabetes later progress to a state 
of absolute insulin deficiency.

conjunction with a spermicidal gel, foam, cream, or suppository.  In addition, the female partner, 
as well as female patients of child-bearing potential will be requested to use an additional 
effective form of contraception, which can be any of the following:

female condom with spermicide

diaphragm with spermicide

cervical sponge

cervical cap with spermicide

combined oral contraceptive pill and mini-pill

NuvaRing

implantable contraceptives

injectable contraceptives (such as Depo-Provera)

intrauterine device (such as Mirenaand ParaGard)

true abstinence, when in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient
Men who have had a vasectomy with appropriate postvasectomy documentation of the absence 
of sperm in the ejaculate are not required to use contraception.  In addition, Inclusion 
Criterion 3b provides a specific definition of women not of childbearing potential; these subjects 
will not be required to use contraception.  Male patients with a female partner meeting the 
definition of a woman not of childbearing potential will not be required to use contraception.

Protocols for the Measurement of Height and Weight
The following information has been adapted from standardized physical measurement protocols 
for the World Health Organization’s STEPwise approach to Surveillance (STEPS) (WHO 2008)
(Available at: http://www.who.int/chp/steps/Part3_Section3.pdf. Accessed August 16, 2016).
Measuring Height
Step 1 Ask the patient to remove their footwear and any headgear (light headgear worn for 
religious reasons can remain, but this should be worn by the patient at every clinic visit when 
their weight is measured).
Step 2 Ask the patient to stand on the calibrated height measuring board (stadiometer) or against 
a wall with their feet together and their knees straight with their heels against the back board or 
the stadiometer or the wall.
Step 3 Ask the patient to look straight ahead without tilting their head up.
Step 4 Ask the patient to breathe in and stand tall. If using a stadiometer or fixed measuring 
device, move the device’s measurement arm gently down onto the top of the patient’s head. 
Record the patient’s height in centimeters (cm).
Measuring Weight
Body weight measurements should be done in a consistent manner using a calibrated scale 
(mechanical or digital scales are acceptable). All weights for a given patient should be measured 
using the same scale, whenever possible, after the patient has emptied their bladder. Patients 
should be lightly clothed but not wearing shoes while their weight is measured.
Step 1 Ask the patient to remove their footwear and any headgear (light headgear worn for 
religious reasons can remain, but this should be worn by the patient at every clinic visit when 
their weight is measured).
Step 2 Make sure the scale is placed on a firm, flat, even surface (not on carpet or on a sloping 
surface or a rough uneven surface).
Step 3 Ask the patient to step onto the scale with one foot on each side of the scale.
Step 4 Ask the patient to stand still with their arms by their sides and then record their weight in 
kilograms (kg).

Summary: A Phase 2 Study of Once-Weekly LY3298176
Compared with Placebo and Dulaglutide in Patients with 
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Overview
Protocol I8F-MC-GPGB A Phase 2 Study of Once-Weekly LY3298176 Compared with Placebo 
and Dulaglutide in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus has been amended.  The new protocol 
is indicated by amendment (a) and will be used to conduct the study in place of any preceding 
version of the protocol.
The overall changes and rationale for the changes made to this protocol are described in the 
following table:

Typographical error.  Changing to 8 weeks is 
consistent with Section 7.2.2. Specific 
Restrictions/Requirements
Section 7.6 Treatment Compliance
Added “intentionally” to the following sentence: A 
patient will be considered significantly 
noncompliant if he/she intentionally misses 4 or 
more doses of study medication.  
Added to clarify from Section 8.1.2.
Section 8.1.1 Permanent Discontinuation from 
Study Treatment
Added “significant” to the following bullet:

Any significant study drug-related 
hypersensitivity reaction
Added “intentionally” to the following sentence:

If the patient intentionally misses 4 or 
more doses (consecutive or not) of study 
medication or intentionally or repeatedly 
takes more than the prescribed dose of 
study medication (see Section 9.3).
Added to clarify and align with Section 9.2.1.2.2
Added to clarify from Section 8.1.2
Section 8.1.2 Temporary Discontinuation from 
Study Treatment
Added “a natural disaster” to the following 
sentence: After randomization, the investigator 
may temporarily discontinue study drug, for 
example, due to an AE (eg, nausea and vomiting), a 
clinically significant laboratory value, or a natural 
disaster.  
Added because we had patients miss doses and 
visits due to hurricanes Irma and Maria, both of 
which have shut sites, resulted in loss of study drug 
due to lack of power/refrigeration, and made it a 
logistical challenge for patients to attend site visits 
or take study drug.  Since this is not a patient 
compliance issue, we want to keep patients in the 
study.

Section # and Name
Description of Change
Brief Rationale
Section 8.1.2 Temporary Discontinuation from 
Study Treatment
Sentence deleted: If 4 or more doses of study 
medication (consecutive or not) are missed for any 
reason, then the patient should be permanently 
discontinued from study medication.
This sentence has been removed because we are 
allowing patients to miss 4 or more doses when the 
reason has been beyond their control, such as the 
length of time it has taken for follow up for 
abnormal laboratory results and due to natural 
disasters (hurricanes).  Of note, because of 
hurricanes Irma and Maria we have had sites 
without power and issues of patient logistics that 
have necessitated patients missing doses fully 
beyond their control.  We want to keep those 
patients in the study.

Lifestyle Restrictions
Study participants should be instructed not to donate blood or blood products during the study or 
for 30 days 8 weeks following the study.
7.6
Treatment Compliance
During the study, patients will be asked to return their unused study drug materials and 
completed diaries to the site so that their compliance may be assessed.
Patients who are significantly noncompliant will be permanently discontinued from study
medication.  A patient will be considered significantly noncompliant if he/she intentionally
misses 4 or more doses of study medication.  Similarly, a patient will be considered significantly 
noncompliant if he/she is judged by the investigator to have intentionally or repeatedly taken 
more than the prescribed amount of medication.
8.1.1
Permanent Discontinuation from Study Treatment
o
Any significant study drug-related hypersensitivity reaction

If the patient intentionally misses 4 or more doses (consecutive or not) of study 
medication or intentionally or repeatedly takes more than the prescribed dose of study 
medication (see Section 9.3).
8.1.2
Temporary Discontinuation from Study Treatment
After randomization, the investigator may temporarily discontinue study drug, for example, due 
to an AE (e.g., nausea and vomiting), or a clinically significant laboratory value, or a natural 
disaster.  If study drug discontinuation is due to an AE, the event is to be followed and 
documented.  Every effort should be made by the investigator to maintain patients in the study 
and to restart study drug promptly after any temporary discontinuation, as soon as it is safe to do 
so.  The dates of study drug discontinuation and restart will be documented.  Patient 
noncompliance should not be recorded as temporary discontinuation of study drug on the eCRF.  
If 4 or more doses of study medication (consecutive or not) are missed for any reason, then the 
patient should be permanently discontinued from study medication.
