BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
FXR is a member of the nuclear receptor family of ligand-activated transcription
factors that includes receptors for the steroid, retinoid, and thyroid hormones (D.J.
Mangelsdorf, et al., Cell 83:841-850 (1995)). Northern and in situ analysis show that FXR is
1O most ntly expressed in the liver, intestine, kidney, and l (B.M. Forman, et al,
Cell 81:687-693 (1995) and W. Seol, et al, Mal. Endocrinnol. 9:72-85 (1995)). FXR binds
to DNA as a heterodimer with the 9-cis retinoic acid receptor (RXR). The rat FXR is
activated by micromolar concentrations of famesoids such as famesol and le hormone
(B.M. Forman, et al, Cell 81 93 (1995)). However, these compounds failed to activate
the mouse and human FXR, leaving the nature of the endogenous FXR ligands in doubt.
Several naturally-occurring bile acids (e. g., chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), deoxycholic
acid (DCA), lithocholic acid (LCA), and the taurine and glycine ates thereof) serve as
FXR s and bind to and activate FXR at physiological concentrations (WO 00/37077).
Bile acids are terol metabolites that are formed in the liver and secreted into the
duodenum of the intestine, where they have important roles in the solubilization and
absorption of y lipids and vitamins. Most bile acids (~95%) are subsequently
reabsorbed in the ileum and returned to the liver via the enterohepatic circulatory system.
The conversion of cholesterol to bile acids in the liver is under feedback regulation: bile acids
down-regulate the transcription of cytochrome P450 7a (CYP7a), which encodes the enzyme
that catalyzes the rate limiting step in bile acid biosynthesis. It is suggested that FXR is
involved in the repression of CYP7a expression by bile acids (D.W. Russell, Cell 97:539-542
). In the ileum, bile acids induce the expression of the intestinal bile acid binding
protein (IBABP), which binds bile acids with high affinity and may be involved in their
cellular uptake and king. It is demonstrated that bile acids mediate their effects on
IBABP sion through activation of FXR, which binds to an IR-l type response element
that is conserved in the human, rat, and mouse IBABP gene promoters. Thus, FXR is
involved in both the stimulation (IBABP) and the sion (CYP7a) of target genes
ed in bile acid and cholesterol homeostasis. Accordingly, there is a need for FXR
modulators suitable for drug development. The present invention addresses this need.

One technical problem to be solved by the present invention is the identification of
novel compounds that are agonists of the nuclear hormone famesoid X receptor (FXR),
which represents an tive target for the treatment of metabolic and chronic liver diseases.
It is well known that natural bile acids modulate not only several nuclear hormone receiptors,
but are also agonists for the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) TGRS. Selectivity can be a
problem for drug compounds directed to modulating a nuclear hormone receptor. It is
therefore an objective of the present invention to provide a compound that is a specific FXR
agonist, for example, a compound that shows no activity against other nuclear receptors or a
compound that does not activate the bile acid GPCR TGRS. Other problems in the
pment of a drug compound include a non-suitable cokinetic profile, safety
issues such as toxicity (e.g., liver) and undesirable drug-drug interactions. Accordingly,
further objectives of the present invention are to provide compounds that do not suffer from
the aforementioned technical problems, i. e. a compound that has a suitable pharmacokinetic
profile, a compound that does not exert a cytotoxic effect on cells, a compound that does not
inhibit cytochrome P450 enzymes, and/or a compound that does not inhibit hERG.
The patent and scientific literature referred to herein establishes knowledge that is
available to those with skill in the art. The issued patents, ations, and references that
are cited herein are hereby incorporated by nce to the same extent as if each was

The synthesis is based on the use of 60t-ethyl-cholic acid (6-ECA, 1) as ng
material which was ed using methods known in the art. 6-ECA (1) was treated with p-
TSA in MeOH under ultrasound irradiation to give the corresponding methyl ester, which

Compound 7 was selectively reduced at the Cl l-carbonyl using NaBH4 in a
mixture ofTHF/H20= (4:1, V/V) to give 30L,70t,l lB-trihydroxy-60t-ethyl-5B-cholan—24-oic acid
(Compound 100; about 27% from nd 3), after tographic purification to afford
Compound 100. Alternatively, compound 7 was reduced with sodium in sec-BuOH at 50 0C

“Solyate” means a t addition form that contains either a stoichiometric or non
stoichiometric amounts of solvent. Some compounds have a tendency to trap a fixed molar
ratio of solvent molecules in the crystalline solid state, thus forming a solvate. If the t
is water the solvate formed is a hydrate; when the solvent is alcohol, the solvate formed is an
alcoholate. Hydrates are formed by the combination of one or more molecules of water with
one of the substances in which the water retains its molecular state as H20, such combination
being able to form one or more hydrate.
The term “suitable solvent” refers to any t, or mixture of solvents, inert to the
ongoing reaction that sufficiently solubilizes the reactants to afford a medium within which to
effect the desired reaction.
The compounds described herein can have asymmetric centers. Compounds of the
present invention containing an asymmetrically substituted atom can be isolated in optically
active or racemic forms. It is well known in the art how to e optically active forms,
such as by resolution of racemic forms or by synthesis from optically active starting materials.
Many geometric isomers of olefins, C=N double bonds, and the like can also be present in the
nds described herein, and all such stable isomers are contemplated in the present
invention. Cis and trans geometric isomers of the compounds of the present invention are
described and can be ed as a mixture of isomers or as separate isomeric forms. All
chiral, diastereomeric, racemic, and geometric isomeric forms of a structure are intended,
unless specific stereochemistry or isomeric form is specifically indicated. All processes used
to prepare compounds of the present ion and intermediates made therein are considered
to be part of the present ion. All tautomers of shown or described compounds are also
considered to be part of the present invention. Furthermore, the invention also es
metabolites of the nds described herein.
The ion also comprehends isotopically-labeled compounds, which are identical
to those recited in the formulae of the invention, but for the fact that one or more atoms are
replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or
mass number most commonly found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated
into compounds of the invention e isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, fluorine,
such as 3H, 11C, 14C, 2H, and 18F.
Compounds of the t invention and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates or
amino acid ates thereof that contain the aforementioned isotopes and/or other isotopes
of other atoms are within the scope of the present invention. Isotopically-labeled compounds
of the present invention, for example those into which ctive isotopes such as 3H and 14C
are incorporated, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated, i.e.,
3H, and carbon—l4, i.e., 14C, isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation
and detectability. 11C and 18F isotopes are particularly usefial in PET (positron emission
tomography). PET is useful in brain imaging. Further, substitution with r isotopes
such as deuterium, i.e., 2H, can afford certain therapeutic ages resulting from greater
metabolic stability, for example increased in viva half-life or reduced dosage ements
and, hence, may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of this
ion can generally be prepared through techniques known in the art, such as by carrying
out the procedures disclosed in the Schemes and/or in the Examples below, by substituting a
readily ble isotopically labeled reagent for a non—isotopically labeled reagent. In one
embodiment, the compounds of the invention, salts, hydrates, solvates, or amino acid
conjugates thereof are not isotopically labelled.
When any variable (e.g. occurs more than one time in any constituent or formula
, RX)
for a compound, its definition at each occurrence is independent of its definition at every
other occurrence. Thus, for example, if a group is shown to be substituted with one or more
RX moieties, then RX at each occurrence is selected independently from the definition of RX.
Also, combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible, but only if such
combinations result in stable compounds within a designated atom’s normal valency.
As used herein, the term ,9) “treating,” or “treatment” is meant sing the
symptoms, markers, and/or any ve effects of a condition in any appreciable degree in a
subject who currently has the ion. In some embodiments, treatment may be
administered to a subject who exhibits only early signs of the condition for the e of
decreasing the risk of developing the disease or condition.
As used , the term “prevent,3, “prevention,” or “preventing” refers to any
method to partially or completely prevent or delay the onset of one or more symptoms or
features of a disease, disorder, and/or condition. Prevention may be administered to a subject
who does not exhibit signs of a disease or condition.
As used herein, “subject” means a human or animal (in the case of an animal, more
typically a mammal). In one aspect, the subject is a human. Such subject can be considered
to be in need of treatment with an FXR agonist.
As used herein, “unsaturated” refers to compounds or structures having at least one

Cholestasis is typically caused by factors within the liver (intrahepatic) or outside the
liver (extrahepatic) and leads to the lation of bile salts, bile t bilirubin, and
lipids in the blood stream instead of being eliminated normally. Intrahepatic cholestasis is
characterized by widespread blockage of small ducts or by disorders, such as tis, that

alcoholic liver e, primary biliary cirrhosis, cancer that has spread (metastasized) from
another part of the body, primary sclerosing cholangitis, gallstones, biliary colic and acute
cholecystitis. It can also occur as a complication of surgery, serious injury, cystic fibrosis,
infection, or enous feeding or be drug induced. Cholestasis may also occur as a
complication of pregnancy and often develops during the second and third trimesters.
Extrahepatic cholestasis is most often caused by choledocholithiasis (Bile Duct
Stones), benign biliary strictures (non-cancerous narrowing of the common duct),
cholangiocarcinoma (ductal oma) and pancreatic carcinoma. Extrahepatic cholestasis
can occur as a side effect of many tions.

industrial chemicals including but not limited to carbon tetrachloride and
dimethylnitrosamine; and diseases such as y biliary sis, primary sclerosing
colangitis, fatty liver, obesity, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, cystic fibrosis, romatosis,
mmune hepatitis, and steatohepatitis. Current therapy in liver fibrosis is primarily
directed at removing the causal agent, e.g., removing excess iron (e.g., in the case of
hemochromatosis), decreasing Viral load (e.g., in the case of chronic Viral hepatitis), or
eliminating or decreasing exposure to toxins (e.g., in the case of alcoholic liver disease).
Anti-inflammatory drugs such as osteroids and colchicine are also known for use in
treating inflammation that can lead to liver fibrosis.
As is known in the art, liver fibrosis may be clinically classified into five stages of
severity (SO, S1, S2, S3, and S4), usually based on histological examination of a biopsy
en. SO indicates no fibrosis, s S4 indicates cirrhosis. While various criteria for
staging the severity of liver fibrosis exist, in general early stages of fibrosis are identified by
discrete, localized areas of scarring in one portal (zone) of the liver, whereas later stages of
fibrosis are identified by bridging fibrosis ing that crosses zones of the liver).

one aspect, the metabolic disease is selected from insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, diabetes
mellitus, ity, and obesity. In one aspect, the es mellitus is type I diabetes. In one
aspect, the diabetes us is type II diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus, commonly called diabetes, refers to a disease or condition that is
generally characterized by metabolic defects in production and utilization of glucose which
result in the failure to maintain appropriate blood sugar levels in the body.
In the case of type II diabetes, the e is characterized by insulin resistance, in
which insulin loses its ability to exert its biological effects across a broad range of
concentrations. This resistance to insulin siveness results in insufficient insulin
activation of glucose uptake, oxidation and storage in muscle and inadequate n
repression of lipolysis in adipose tissue and of glucose production and secretion in liver. The
resulting ion is elevated blood glucose, which is called “hyperglycemia”. Uncontrolled
hyperglycemia is associated with increased and ure mortality due to an increased risk
for microvascular and macrovascular diseases, including retinopathy (the impairment or loss
of Vision due to blood vessel damage in the eyes); neuropathy (nerve damage and foot
problems due to blood vessel damage to the s system); and nephropathy (kidney
disease due to blood vessel damage in the kidneys), hypertension, cerebrovascular disease
and coronary heart disease. Therefore, control of glucose homeostasis is a critically
ant ch for the treatment of diabetes.
Insulin resistance has been hypothesized to unify the clustering of hypertension,
glucose intolerance, hyperinsulinemia, increased levels of triglyceride and decreased HDL
cholesterol, and central and overall obesity. The association of insulin resistance with
glucose intolerance, an increase in plasma triglyceride and a decrease in high-density
otein cholesterol concentrations, hypertension, ricemia, smaller denser lowdensity
lipoprotein particles, and higher circulating levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-
1, has been referred to as “Syndrome X”. Accordingly, methods of treating or preventing any
disorders related to insulin resistance including the cluster of disease states, conditions or
disorders that make up “Syndrome X” are provided. In one aspect, the invention relates to a

The synthesis is based on the use of 60t-ethyl-cholic acid (6-ECA, 1) as starting
material which was prepared using methods known in the art. 6-ECA (1) was treated with p-
TSA in MeOH under ultrasound irradiation to give the corresponding methyl ester, which
was ively protected at the C3 position by refluxing with AczO in the present of
NaHC03 in THF to afford compound 2. Treating compound 2 with PCC in CH2C12 at room
temperature followed by treatment with AczO, Bi(OTf)3 in CHzClz at room temperature
ed the intermediate methyl 30L,7u-diacetoxyoxo-SB-cholanoate (compound 3;
about 48% from compound 2).
Treatment of compound 3 with Brz in benzene for e.g., 12 h yielded compound 4.
Reaction of compound 4 with NaBH4 and NaOAc in freshly distilled pyridine gave the
ponding 1113-12B epoxide (compound 5), in about 59% yield after silica gel
purification. The reaction of compound 5 with H1 in AcOH at room temperature ed the
halohydrine intermediate which were then ed at C11 position with Cr03 in AcOH to
generate compound 6. Reaction of compound 6 with Zn dust in boiling AcOH and alkali
hydrolysis (NaOH/MeOH) afforded hydroxyketocholanoic acid
(compound 7; about 65% yield from compound 5).
Compound 7 was stereoselectively reduced at the C11-carbonyl using NaBH4 in a
mixture ofTHF/H20= (4:1, V/V) to give 30L,7ot,11B-trihydroxy-60L-ethyl-5B—cholan—24-oic acid
(Compound 100; about 27% from compound 3), after chromatographic purification to afford
Compound 100. Alternatively, compound 7 was reduced with sodium in sec-BuOH at 50 0C
to give Compound 101 (about 70% , after purification.
Example 2: Compound 100 is a potent, specific FXR agonist
In the nucleus, ligand-bound nuclear receptors (NRs) modulate initiation of
transcription by directly interacting with the basal transcriptional machinery or by contacting
bridging factors called coactivators (Onate SA, er al., Science 1995; 270: 1354-1357; Wang
JC, et al., JBiol Chem 1998; 273:30847-30850; Zhu Y, et al., Gene Expr 1996; 6:185-195).
The ligand-dependent interaction ofNRS with their coactivators occurs between activation
function 2 (AF-2), d in the receptor ligand-binding domain (LED) and the nuclear
or boxes (NR box) located on the coactivators (Nolte RT, et al., Nature 1998; 395:137-
143). Several lines of evidence have demonstrated that the LXXLL peptide ce present
in the NR box ents a signature motif that tates the interaction of different proteins
with the AF-2 region (Heery DM, et al., Nature 1997; 387:733-736; Torchia J, et al., Nature
1997; 387:677-684).
creen was used with the aim of fy novel modulators by taking advantage
of the bimolecular interaction ling between FXR and the LXXLL motif present in the
NR box of the steroid receptor coactivator 1 (SRC-l).
Human FXR-LBD—GST was incubated with increasing concentrations of the indicated
ligands in the presence of biotinylated LXXLL SRC-l peptide. The AlphaScreen signal
ses when the complex receptor-coactivator is formed. EC50 values were 8.9 uM for
chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA; which is a positive control), 0.16 uM for Compound A, and
0.16 uM for Compound 100. These results are the mean :: SD. of triplicate samples from a
representative experiment of three performed. The AlphaScreen assay is a very robust and
reproducible assay, as shown by the 2' factor of 0.84 (Zhang JH, et al., J Biomol Screen
1999; 4:67-73). Thus, Compound 100 is a highly potent FXR agonist.
Further, the data in the table below show that Compound 100 is ive for human
FXR and is not active for human TGRS.

FXR activation by Compound 100 was also tested in cell-based transactivation assays
with the use of HEK293T cell line transiently transfected with Gal4-FXR-LBD chimera and
the (UAS)5-Luc system (Figure 1). FXR activation by Compound 100 was comparable to
that induced by compound A indicating that these compounds are potent FXR agonists in
cell-based assays. Figure l is a graph showing the activity of Compound 100 in comparison
to compound A in a transactivation assay in HEK293T cells. NT is FXR vector-transfected
cells t exposure to compound A or Compound 100. Values are represented in uM.
Bile acids (BAs) modulate not only several nuclear hormone receptors, but are also
agonists for the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) TGRS ( Makishima M, et al., Science
1999; 62-1365; Parks DJ, et al., Science 1999; 284: 1365-1368; Maruyama T, et al.,
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2002; 298:714—719; Kawamata Y, et al., JBiol Chem 2003;
278:9435-9440). Signalling via FXR and TGRS modulates l metabolic pathways,
regulating not only BA sis and enterohepatic recirculation, but also triglyceride,
terol, glucose, and energy homeostasis. To evaluate the capacity of a compound of the
invention to activate TGRS, Compound 100 and other comparison compounds were screened
for an increase of intracellular CAMP as a read—out for TGRS activation. Human
enteroendocrine NCI-H716 cells constitutively expressing TGRS were exposed to sing
concentrations of Compound 100, and ellular cAMP levels were measured by TR-
FRET. Lithocholic acid (LCA) was used as positive control.
As shown in Figure 2A, Compound 100 does not induce TGRS activity in cells
expressing the or physiologically as no change in the level of intracellular cAMP was
observed. To further assess if Compound 100 could bind TGRS, a clonal cell line over-
expressing TGRS was exposed to different trations of Compound 100. The results
illustrated in Figure 2B show that even with the over-expression of the TGRS receptor,
Compound 100 had no relevant effect. Figure 2A is a graph showing the TGRS activity of
Compound 100 (no activity) and LCA in human enteroendocrine cells expressing TGRS at
physiological level. Results are shown as the mean i S. D. of triplicate samples from a
representative experiment of three performed. Figure 2B is a graph showing the TGRS
activity of Compound 100 (no activity) and LCA in human Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)
cells over—expressing TGRS.
Example 3: FXR target genes modulated by Compound 100
To te the capacity of Compound 100 to te FXR target genes,
quantitative RT-PCR assays were performed. HepG2 cells were selected as a relevant cell
line to determine whether a compound of the invention can regulate the endogenous FXR
c network. The ability of a compound of the invention to induce FXR target genes was
assessed by isolating total RNA from cells treated overnight with luM of compounds A, B,
and 100. Compound A is established as a potent FXR selective t and compound B is
ished as a dual potent FXIVTGRS agonist. Compound 100’s gene activation profile in
HepG2 cells was compared to the s of compounds A and B. (Pellicciari, R, et al., J
Med Chem. 2002; Aug 15; 45: 3569-72; Rizzo, G, et al., Mal. Pharm, 2010; 78: 617-630).
FXR regulates the expression of several target genes involved in BA homeostasis.
Briefly, FXR plays a l role in several lic pathways, including i.e. , lipid
metabolism, bile—acids metabolism, and carbohydrate metabolism. Regarding gene
expression profiling, the genes encoding proteins involved in lipid metabolism include, e.g.,
APOCII, APOE, APOAI, SREBP-lC, VLDL-R, PLTP, and LPL; the genes encoding
proteins involved in bile-acids metabolism include, e.g., OSTa/B, BSEP, MRP2, SHP,
CYP7A1, FGF19, SULT2A1, and UGT2B4; and the genes encoding proteins involved in
ydrate metabolism include, e.g. , PGCla, PEPCK, and GLUT2.
As shown in Figures 3A—3H, nd 100 activation of FXR indirectly represses
the expression of the BA biosynthetic enzymes CYP7A1 by increasing the levels ofthe
nuclear receptor SHP in the liver and intestine and increasing the level of FGF19 (Goodwin,
B, et al., Mol. Cell 2000; 6: 517-526). nd 100 activated FXR also positively
regulates the expression of genes encoding proteins involved in the transport of BA,
including, BSEP, and OSTd and OSTB. Newly synthesized BAs are ated with taurine
or glycine and then ly secreted in the gall bladder, FXR regulates both of these critical
ses. Monoanionic— and nic—conjugated BAs are then actively secreted in the gall
bladder by BSEP and the multidrug related protein 2 (MRP2), respectively. These
transporters belonging to the ABC transporter family and are both induced by FXR at the
transcriptional level. The regulation of these ABC transporters is of critical importance in
order to avoid BA accumulation in the liver and consequent hepatic injury (Schinkel AH, et
al., Mammalian drug efflux transporters of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) : an
overview. Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2012; Sep 13).
Figure 3 are a series of graphs showing the activity of Compound 100 and other
comparison compounds in regulating expression of OSTu (A), OSTB (B), BSEP (C), MRP2
(D), CYP7A1 (E), SHP (F), FGF-19 (G), and UGT2B4 (H). Note in the Figures 3A-3H, the
y-axis displays folds change in expression relative to untreated cells. The data were
ized relative to B2M. The error bars display the standard error of the three replicates.
FXR activation contributes to reverse cholesterol transport, a process that results in
the delivery of cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver for biliary al and
consequent fecal elimination (Lambert, G, et al., J Biol Chem 2003; 278, 2563-70). In this
metabolic scenario, FXR tes the expression of phospholipids transfer protein ,
responsible for the transfer of phospholipids and cholesterol from LDL to HDL, hepatic
lipoproteins, such as ApoE, ApoC-I, ApoC-IV, and scavenger receptor B1(SRB1), which is
involved in the hepatic uptake of HDL.
FXR controls triglyceride (TG) metabolism by regulating hepatic de novo lipogenesis
and triglyceride clearance. Upon activation by Compound 100, FXR down regulates the
expression of SREBP-lc, a transcription factor that plays a critical role in stimulating fatty
acid sis and lipogenesis (Figures 4A-4D) (Landrier, JF, et al., J Clin Invest 2004; 113,
1408-18). In addition to the reduction of de novo lipogenesis, FXR activation also tes
TG clearance. This additional TG-lowering effect of FXR is explained at the molecular level
by the induction of key genes, such as Apo-C-Il LPL and VDL receptor (Kast, HR, et al.,
Mol Endocrinol 2001; 15, 1720-8).
Figure 4 are a series of graphs showing the activity of Compound 100 and other
comparison compounds in regulating PLTP involved in lipid metabolism (A), SREBP-lC
(B), APOCII (C), and PPARy (D). Note in the Figures 4A-4D, the y-axis displays folds
change in expression relative to not treated cells. The data were ized relative to B2M.
The error bars display the standard error of the three replicates.
FXR may also have a role in carbohydrate lism. (Ma K, et al., J Clin Invest.
2006; 116:1102-9). PEPCK gene regulation was studied e 5) using Compound 100.
Figure 5 is a graph showing the regulation of Compound 100 and other comparison
compounds on PEPCK gene. The y-axis displays folds change in expression relative to not
treated cells. The data were normalized relative to B2M. The error bars display the standard
error of the three replicates.
Collectively the gene expression studies showed that Compound 100 modulates the
same FXR target genes as compound A or B (also see Table 3).

Example 4: Compound 100 does not exert cytotoxic effects in HepG2 cells.
To evaluate in vitro cytotoxicity of Compound 100, two different assay methods were
employed. The assays evaluated cell Viability by measuring ATP levels and cytotoxicity by
ing LDH release. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) tide represents the source of
energy at the basic molecular level, as it is a multifunctional molecule that is used in every
cell as a coenzyme and is an integral part of the ondrial DNA (Kangas L, et (11.,
Medical Biology, 1984; 62, 338—343; Crouch SPM, et al., J. Immunol. Methods, 1993; 160,
81 — 88; Petty RD, et al., J. in. Chemilumin. 1995; 10, 29 — 34). It has been called the
“molecular unit of currency” when it comes to intracellular energy transfer. This is to ensure
the important role ofATP in metabolism and a drop in ATP content is the first step in
2014/059896
revealing cellular damage (Storer RD, et al., Mutation Research, 1996; 368, 59 — 101; Cree
IA, Andreotti PE., Toxicology in Vitro, 1997; 11, 553 — 556).
Cell Viability was determined as measure of intracellular ATP related to the time of
exposure and concentration of the test compounds (Sussman, NL.; Promega Cell Notes, Issue
3. 2002).
Figure 6 is a graph g the measurement ofATP in HepG2 cells, treated with the
indicated concentrations of compounds for 4 h. It demonstrated that all cells in presence of
different concentrations of Compound 100 were viable as cells treated with the vehicle alone,
i. e., all cells treated with nd 100 remain viable . LCA, a well-known
cytotoxic bile acid, was used as comparator and Tamoxifen was used as positive controls for
the assays.
An additional method to determine the Viability of cells is to detect the integrity of the
membrane that defines the cellular compartmentalization. Measuring the leakage of
components out of the cytoplasm, in damaged cell membranes, indicates loss of membrane
ity, and LDH release is the method used to determine common toxicity in cells. HepG2
cells were treated with Compound 100, serial dilutions were performed, LCA dilutions were
added to the plated cells as assay control together with no-cell and untreated cells. The assay
was performed in triplicate for each test compound concentration.
The results show that Compound 100 does not induce any cytotoxic effect on HepG2
cells. Lithocolic Acid increased LDH release at 70 uM whilst the l fen exerted
the cytotoxic effects at approximately 25 uM (see Table 4).

Example 5: nd 100 does not inhibit cytochrome P450 enzymes.
To evaluate the ial of Compound 100 for drug-drug interactions, the six main
CYP450 ms (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4) were
investigated. (Obach, RS, er al., JPharmcol Exp Ther, 2006; 316(1): p. 336-48).
To determine interaction between Compound 100 and cytochrome P450 enzymes,
Compound 100 was analyzed by its capacity to inhibit (or not) the production of a fluorescent
signal, using inant CYP450 proteins (baculosomes; Invitrogen), ates and
inhibitors (Bidstrup, TB, et al., Br J Clin Pharmacol, 2003; 56(3): p. 305-14). As a positive
control, a selective inhibitor for each CYP450 isoform was tested in the same plate (Table 5).

Cytochrome P450 enzymes tested, showing that Compound 100 is not likely to be influenced
by rug interaction effects. , G, et al., M01 Pharm, 2010; 78: 617-630).
Example 6: Compound 100 does not inhibit human ERG potassium channel
To determine ion channel function, torTM hERG Fluorescence Polarization
assay was employed as it provides an nt method for an initial determination of the
propensity of test compounds to block the hERG channel (Dom, A, et al. J Biomol Screen,
2005; 10(4): 339-47). The assay is based on the assumption that the hERG potassium
channel activity contributes to the resting membrane potential in permanently ected
cells, and thus a block ofhERG ls should result in a depolarization of the cell
membrane. The assay was designed to identify potential hERG channel blockers by
producing data that accurately correlates with clamp electrophysiology studies. Results
from the Predictor assay demonstrate a high correlation with those obtained from patch clamp
techniques (Table 6) (Dom, A, et al. J Biomol Screen, 2005; 10(4): ).

Table 6 show the comparison of IC50 values generated with the PredictorTM hERG
Fluorescence Polarization assay with ed IC50 values from patch-clamp and radioligand
displacrnent assays.
Membrane preparations from Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with
hERG potassium channel were used to evaluate the potential inhibitory effect of Compound
100 on this channel using the Predictor fluorescence polarization assay. Reduction of
membrane polarization as a result of inhibition of the hERG potassium channel is directly
ated with a reduction of the fluorescence polarization (PP). The results show that like
compounds A and B, Compound 100 does not block or inhibit the hERG potassium channel.
The assay was performed in triplicate by using a 16-point dose-response of test
compound and the ve controls E-403l and Tamoxifen. An IC50 of 15 nM (AmP = 163)
for E-4031 and 1.4 uM (AmP = 183) for Tamoxifen were obtained. The assay window more
than 100 mP (millipolarization) is considered good. 2' value was 0.78 indicates an excellent
assay. The near regression curves were obtained by ad Prism (GraphPad
Software Inc.) analysis, to calculate the IC50 values.
Briefly, signalling through FXR modulates a variety of metabolic pathways, so
selective FXR modulators are tive ates for the treatment of a range of chronic
diseases ing liver, kidney, as well as metabolic diseases. Results in the examples
described herein characterize Compound 100, as a potent and specific FXR agonist.
Remarkably, although it potently ted FXR, Compound 100 showed no activity
against other nuclear receptors and did not active the bile acid GPCR TGRS. In addition to
high nuclear receptor selectivity, Compound 100 possesses a pharmacological profile suitable
for a drug ate. nd 100 shows no cytotoxic effect on human HepG2 liver cells,
ting a lack of liver toxicity, and does not inhibit any of the CYP450 enzymes tested,
indicating that Compound 100 is devoid of significant drug-drug interaction risk. Further,
Compound 100 does not inhibit the human ERG potassium channel.
The combined selectivity and potency of Compound 100 together with its favorable
drug-like properties, in particular an ent safety profile, make Compound 100 an
attractive candidate for ng and preventing disease.
