- GPRl 19 (e.g., human GPRl 19, GENBANK® Accession No. AAP72125 and alleles thereof; e.g., mouse GPRl 19, GENBANK® Accession No. AY288423 and alleles thereof) is a GPCR located at chromosome position Xp26.1 (Fredricksson, R. et al., "Seven evolutionary conserved human rhodopsin G protein-coupled receptors lacking close relatives", FEBS Lett., 554:381-388 (2003)) and is selectively expressed on pancreatic beta cells.
- the receptor is coupled to Gs, and when stimulated, produces an elevation in cAMP in a variety of cell types including ⁇ -cell-derived insulinomas (Soga, T. et al., "Lysophosphatidylcholine enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion via an orphan G- protein-coupled receptor", Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm., 326:744-751 (2005), PCT Publication Nos. WO 04/065380, WO 04/076413, WO 05/007647, WO 05/007658, WO 05/121121, and WO
- the receptor has been shown to be localized to the ⁇ -cells of the pancreas in a number of species as well as in specific cell types of the gastrointestinal tract.
- GPRl 19 has also been referred to as RUP3 (see, International Application WO 00/31258) and as Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Receptor GDIR (see, Jones, et al. Expert Opin. Ther. Patents (2009), 19(10): 1339- 1359).
- GPRl 19 agonists also stimulate the release of Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP), Glucagon-Like Peptide- 1 (GLP-1), and at least one other L-cell peptide, Peptide YY (PYY) (Jones, et al. Expert Opin. Ther. Patents (2009), 19(10): 1339-1359); for specific references related to GPRl 19 agonists and the release of: GIP, see Shah, Current Opinion in Drug Discovery &
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a disorder affecting as many as 1 in 3-5 adults and 1 in 10 children in the United States, and refers to conditions where there is an accumulation of excess fat in the liver of people who drink little or no alcohol.
- the most common form of NAFLD is a non-serious condition called hepatic steatosis (fatty liver), in which fat accumulates in the liver cells: although this is not normal, by itself it probably does not damage the liver.
- Fatty liver disease is generally detected by observation of elevated serum concentrations of liver-specific enzymes such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), which serve as indices of hepatocyte injury, as well as by presentation of symptoms which include fatigue and pain in the region of the liver, though definitive diagnosis often requires a biopsy.

- NAFLD most often presents itself in individuals with a constellation of risk factors related to metabolic syndrome, which is characterized by elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG) with or without intolerance to post-prandial glucose, being overweight or obese, high blood lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides (TGs) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels, and high blood pressure; but not all patients have all the manifestations related to metabolic syndrome.
- FPG fasting plasma glucose
- TGs cholesterol and triglycerides
- HDL-C low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol
- NAFLD Newcastle disease virus
- NASH non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
- NAFLD may be differentiated from NASH by a NAFLD Activity Score (NAS) or a Steatosis, Activity, and Fibrosis (SAF) score.
- NAS NAFLD Activity Score
- SAF Steatosis, Activity, and Fibrosis
- the sum of the histopathology scores of a liver biopsy for steatosis e.g., 0 to 3
- lobular inflammation e.g., 0 to 2
- hepatocellular ballooning e.g., 0 to 2
- steatosis is 0, steatosis is 1, steatosis is 2, steatosis is 3, ballooning degeneration is 0, ballooning degeneration is 1, ballooning degeneration is 2, lobular inflammation is 0, lobular inflammation is 1, lobular inflammation is 2, lobular inflammation is 3, fibrosis is 0, fibrosis is 1, fibrosis is 2, fibrosis is 3, fibrosis is 4, or a combination thereof.
- the scoring system includes steatosis, ballooning degeneration, lobular inflammation, and any combination of the numerical score for each as described above.
- the scoring system includes steatosis, ballooning degeneration, lobular inflammation, fibrosis, and any combination of a numerical score for each as described above.
- a NAS of ⁇ 3 corresponds to NAFLD
- 3-4 corresponds to borderline NASH
- > 5 corresponds to NASH.
- the biopsy can also be scored for fibrosis (e.g., 0 to 4).
- NASH is a leading cause of end-stage liver disease; while NAFLD, and to an even greater degree NASH, are intimately related to metabolic syndrome, including insulin resistance (pre-diabetes) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and abdominal obesity.
- T2DM has been the most prominent predictor for a poor prognosis in NAFLD, whereas elevated liver enzymes are considered unreliable.
- NASH develops much more frequently in the presence of longstanding T2DM, and most patients with cryptogenic cirrhosis are obese and/or diabetic. Studies have demonstrated that 60% of patients with T2DM and NAFLD had biopsy-proven NASH, and that advanced hepatic fibrosis was present in 75% of those with diabetes and hypertension compared to only 7% without either condition.
- NASH is an overlooked complication of T2DM that is frequently associated with fibrosis and in approximately 10% of patients results in cirrhosis; while the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma is also increased in patients with T2DM and NASH.
- Patients with NAFLD and NASH usually demonstrate mixed dyslipidemia and the other metabolic derangements described above, including an atherogenic low-density lipoprotein (LDL) phenotype consisting of predominantly of small dense particles.
- LDL low-density lipoprotein
- Both metabolic syndrome and NAFLD/NASH are characterized by increased cardiovascular inflammation as measured by elevations in high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and other inflammatory cytokines.
- hsCRP high sensitivity C-reactive protein
- MBX-2982 (a GPRl 19 agonist) in mice fed a high-fat diet potently inhibited hepatic lipid accumulation and expression levels of sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP-1) and lipogenesis-related genes, whereas the hepatic antilipogenesis effects of MBX-2982 were abolished in GPRl 19 KO mice (Yang et al. "GPRl 19: a promising target for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease", FASEB J. 30, 324-335 (2016)), suggesting that the MBX-2982 alleviated hepatic steatosis or lessened the abnormal retention of lipids in the liver by inhibiting SREBP-1 -mediated lipogenesis in hepatocytes.

- oGTT oral glucose tolerance test
- Compound 1 3-30 mg/kg PO significantly improved glucose handling and markedly reduced the AUC g i u during oGTT (see Figure 2).
- Example 2 for a representative procedure used for the oGTT. More extensive in vivo studies showed Compound 1 to have highly favorable absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) characteristics. For example, exposure was shown to be high after oral dosing particularly in the mouse, consistent with the excellent effect observed in the oGTT in that species. Additional ADME data are shown in the table below. Species Dose tmax Cmax AUCinf tl/2
- Compound 1 was observed to have high permeability across Caco-2 monolayers (A to B: 26 x 10 "6 cm/s and B to A: 15 x 10 "6 cm/s) and was stable in rat and human liver microsomes (t > 60 min). As stated above, Compound 1 also showed no significant activity in a standard CEREP receptor selectivity panel when tested at 1 ⁇ . In addition, Compound 1 showed no significant inhibition of hERG channel binding (IC50 >10 ⁇ ) and in a patch clamp study Compound 1 showed an IC50 of 13 + 0.2 ⁇ .

The systemic exposure of Compound 1 in plasma increased in proportion to the dose and was not influenced by coadministration of food. The terminal elimination half-life was -13 h when administered as an oral suspension formulation. Compound 1 was determined to be well tolerated and was not associated with hypoglycemia.
- GLP-1 postmeal plasma glucagon-like peptide 1
- GIP glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide
- PYY peptide YY
- Plasma systemic exposure of Compound 1 increased with increased dose and was approximately two-fold greater after multiple-dose administration and attained steady-state after approximately 8 days.
- single-dose administration of oral Compound 1 decreased glucose excursion during an oral glucose tolerance test.
- Multiple dosing of Compound 1 increased post-meal total glucagon-like peptide 1 and gastric insulinotropic peptide concentrations compared to baseline; see, Katz et al., "Effects of JNJ-38431055, a novel GPR119 receptor agonist, in randomized, double -blind, placebo-controlled studies in subjects with type 2 diabetes", Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism 14: 709-716, (2012).
