Definitions

  • the present invention relates to new therapeutically active and selective inhibitors of the enzyme DPP-IV.
  • the invention furthermore relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and the use of such compounds for the manufacture of medicaments for treating diseases that are associated with proteins which are subject to inactivation by DPP- IV, such as type 2 diabetes and obesity, as well as methods for treating such diseases.
  • DPP-IV Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV
  • DPP-IV Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV
  • serine protease belonging to the group of post- proline/alanine cleaving amino-dipeptidases specifically removes the two N-terminal amino acids from proteins having proline or alanine in position 2.
  • DPP-IV DPP-IV
  • DPP-IV has been implicated in the control of glucose metabolism because its substrates include the insulinotropic hormones Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and Gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP). GLP-1 and GIP are active only in their intact forms; removal of their two N- terminal amino acids inactivates them. In vivo administration of synthetic inhibitors of DPP-IV prevents N-terminal degradation of GLP-1 and GIP, resulting in higher plasma concentrations of these hormones, increased insulin secretion and, therefore, improved glucose tolerance. Therefore, such inhibitors have been proposed for the treatment of patients with Type 2 diabetes, a disease characterised by decreased glucose tolerance. (Hoist, J. J.; Deacon, C. F.
  • Diabetic dyslipidemia is characterized by multiple lipoprotein defects, including moderately high serum levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, small LDL particles, and low levels of HDL cholesterol.
  • the results of recent clinical trials reveal beneficial effects of cholesterol-lowering therapy in diabetic and non-diabetic patients, thus supporting increased emphasis on treatment of diabetic dyslipidemia.
  • the National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel II advocated this need for intensive treatment of diabetic dyslipidemia.
  • Obesity is a well-known risk factor for the development of many very common diseases such as atherosclerosis, hypertension and diabetes.
  • the incidence of obese people and thereby also these diseases is increasing throughout the entire industrialised world.
  • Even mild obesity increases the risk for premature death, dia- betes, hypertension, atherosclerosis, gallbladder disease and certain types of cancer.
  • the prevalence of obesity has increased significantly in the past few decades. Because of the high prevalence of obesity and its health consequences, its prevention and treatment should be a high public health priority.
  • initial weight loss is not an optimal therapeutic goal. Rather, the problem is that most obese patients eventually regain their weight.
  • An effective means to establish and/or sustain weight loss is the major challenge in the treatment of obesity today.
  • Inhibitors of DPP-IV have previously been disclosed in WO 95/15309 (Ferring B.V.), WO 98/19998, WO 00/34241, US 6124305 (Novartis AG), WO 03/00180 (Merck & Co.), and WO 02/38541 (Taisho Pharmaceutical Co.). However, there is still a need for compounds with improved pharmacological properties.
  • the present invention provides novel potent and selective inhibitors of DPP-IV of formula I, that are effective in treating conditions that may be regulated or normalised via inhibition of DPP-IV.
  • the invention also concerns methods for preparing the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, a method of inhibiting DPP-IV comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount thereof, the compounds for use as a pharmaceutical, and their use in a process for the preparation of a medicament for treating a condition which may be regulated or normalised via inhibition of DPP-IV.
  • DPP-IV Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.5; DPP-IV), also known as CD26. DPP-IV cleaves a dipeptide from the N terminus of a polypeptide chain containing a proline or alanine residue in the penultimate position.
  • treatment is defined as the management and care of a patient for the purpose of combating the disease, condition, or disorder and includes the administration of a compound of the present invention to prevent the onset of the symptoms or complications, or alleviating the symptoms or complications, or eliminating the disease, condition, or disorder.

  • CD26/DPP-IV Chemical compounds are tested for their ability to inhibit the enzyme activity of purified CD26/DPP-IV. Briefly, the activity of CD26/DPP-IV is measured in vitro by its ability to cleave the synthetic substrate Gly-Pro-p-nitroanilide (Gly-Pro-pNA). Cleavage of Gly-Pro- pNA by DPP-IV liberates the product p-nitroanilide (pNA), whose rate of appearance is directly proportional to the enzyme activity. Inhibition of the enzyme activity by specific enzyme inhibitors slows down the generation of pNA. Stronger interaction between an inhibitor and the enzyme results in a slower rate of generation of pNA. Thus, the degree of inhibition of the rate of accumulation of pNA is a direct measure of the strength of enzyme inhibition. The accumulation of pNA is measured spectrophotometrically. The inhibition constant, Ki, for each compound is determined by incubating fixed amounts of enzyme with several different concentrations of inhibitor and substrate.
  • Ki The inhibition constant, Ki, for each compound
  • Porcine CD26/DPP-IV (Sigma D-7052), Gly-Pro-pNA (Sigma G0513).

  • the plate is incubated at 25 °C and absorbance is read at 405 nm after 60 min incubation.
  • the inhibitor constants are calculated by non-linear regression hyperbolic fit and the result is expressed as inhibition constant (Ki) in nM.
  • the Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rat model can be used to investigate the effects of the compounds of the invention on both the treatment and prevention of diabetes as rats of this sub-strain are initially pre-diabetic although develop severe type 2 diabetes characterised by increased HbA1 c levels over a period of 6 weeks.
  • the same strain can be used to predict the clinical efficacy of other anti-diabetic drug types.
  • the model predicts the potency and limited clinical efficacy of thiazolidinedione insulin sensitizers compounds.
