Brief Summary:
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the study drug LY3849891 in participants with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease who have the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3) I148M genotype. Blood tests and magnetic resonance imaging of the liver will be performed to determine the effects of LY3849891 on fatty liver disease. Blood tests will also determine how long it takes the body to eliminate LY3849891. This is a 2-part study and may last up to 32 weeks for each participant and may include 12 and 13 visits in parts A and B, respectively.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Part A: Number of Participants with One or More Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Event(s) (SAEs) Considered by the Investigator to be Related to Study Drug Administration [ Time Frame: Predose up to 26 weeks post dose ]
    A summary of TEAEs and SAEs, regardless of causality, will be reported in the Reported Adverse Events module

  2. Part B: Pharmacodynamics (PD): Relative change from baseline on liver fat content measured by magnetic resonance imaging proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) [ Time Frame: Baseline through 12 weeks ]
    PD: Relative change from baseline on liver fat content measured by MRI-PDFF


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Part A & B: Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of LY3849891 [ Time Frame: Predose through Week 26 ]
    Part A & B: PK: Cmax of LY3849891

  2. Part A & B: Part A & B: PK: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) of LY3849891 [ Time Frame: Predose through Week 26 ]
    Part A & B: PK: AUC of LY3849891

  3. Part A & B: PK: Time to Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) of LY3849891 [ Time Frame: Predose through Week 26 ]
    Part A & B: PK: Tmax of LY3849891

  4. Part A & B: PD: Liver fat content at baseline and specified timepoints measured by MRI-PDFF [ Time Frame: Predose through Week 26 ]
    Part A & B: PD: Liver fat content at baseline and specified timepoints measured by MRI-PDFF

  5. Part B: PD: Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) measurements at baseline and specified time points [ Time Frame: Predose through Week 26 ]
    Part B: PD: ALT measurements at baseline and specified time points
