Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - GLPG0634
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Participants received GLPG0634 matching placebo capsules, orally, once daily (QD) during Weeks 1 to 12 and GLPG0634 100 milligram (mg) QD during Weeks 13 to 24.

Experimental: GLPG0634 50 mg QD - Participants received GLPG0634 50 mg capsules, orally, QD during Weeks 1 to 12. Participants who were responders (having at least 20% improvement on TJC68 and SJC66) remained on 50 mg QD while nonresponders were re-randomized to 100 mg QD during Weeks 13 to 24.

Experimental: GLPG0634 100 mg QD - Participants received GLPG0634 100 mg capsules, orally, QD during Weeks 1 to 24.

Experimental: GLPG0634 200 mg QD - Participants received GLPG0634 200 mg capsules, orally, QD during Weeks 1 to 24.
