Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of medicine. More particularly, the present invention relates to dual incretin peptide mimetic compounds wherein a single peptide agonizes receptors for both human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide- 1 (GLP-1). Such compounds may be useful for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).
- GIP human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide
- GLP-1 glucagon-like peptide- 1
- T2D type 2 diabetes mellitus
- T2D is the most common form of diabetes accounting for approximately 90% of all diabetes. T2D is characterized by high blood glucose levels caused by insulinresistance. Additional treatment options for T2D are desired. Compounds offering dual mechanism of action with GIP and GLP 1 are especially desired.
- GIP is a 42-amino acid gastrointestinal regulatory peptide that is reported to play a physiological role in glucose homeostasis by stimulating insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells in the presence of glucose and protecting pancreatic beta cells.
- GLP-1 is a 37- amino acid peptide that is reported to stimulate insulin secretion, protect pancreatic beta cells, and inhibit glucagon secretion, gastric emptying and food intake leading to weight loss.
- GIP and GLP-1 are known as incretins; incretin receptor signaling exerts physiologically relevant action critical for glucose homeostasis.
- GIP and GLP-1 are secreted from the gut following a meal, and these incretins enhance the physiological response to food including sensation of satiety, insulin secretion, and nutrient disposal. T2D patients have impaired incretin responses.
- Glucagon is a 29-amino acid peptide produced by the pancreas, and when bound to glucagon receptor, signals the liver to release glucose leading to an increase in blood glucose.
- GLP -2 a peptide that like GLP-1 is produced from processing of proglucagon, is known to be associated with cellular proliferation in the gut. Thus, stimulation of glucagon and GLP -2 receptors should be minimized during chronic treatment of T2D patients in order to maximize glucose lowering and reduce potential long term carcinogenic risks.
- GIP analogs have been described as exhibiting both GIP and GLP-1 activity in WO 2013/164483, WO 2014/192284, and WO 2011/119657. Further, the compound tirzepatide, a GIP/GLP1 receptor agonist peptide, is described and claimed in US Patent 9474780. Tirzepatide is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in the treatment of diabetes, as an adjunct to diet and exercise.
- DPP IV is in the exopeptidase class of proteolytic enzymes.
- the introduction of non-natural amino acids in a sequence may increase the proteolytic stability of any given peptide against DPP IV degradation.
- the present single peptide compounds are dual agonists with both GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonism. Such peptides may deliver adequate stability against DPP IV and other forms of degradation, but while still maintaining a low immunogenicity potential.
- pharmaceutical compositions for use as a therapeutic are provided.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a dual incretin peptide that agonizes receptors for both human glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1).
Description
GIP AND GLP-1 DUAL AGONIST COMPOUNDS
The present invention relates to the field of medicine. More particularly, the present invention relates to dual incretin peptide mimetic compounds wherein a single peptide agonizes receptors for both human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide- 1 (GLP-1). Such compounds may be useful for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).
T2D is the most common form of diabetes accounting for approximately 90% of all diabetes. T2D is characterized by high blood glucose levels caused by insulinresistance. Additional treatment options for T2D are desired. Compounds offering dual mechanism of action with GIP and GLP 1 are especially desired.
GIP is a 42-amino acid gastrointestinal regulatory peptide that is reported to play a physiological role in glucose homeostasis by stimulating insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells in the presence of glucose and protecting pancreatic beta cells. GLP-1 is a 37- amino acid peptide that is reported to stimulate insulin secretion, protect pancreatic beta cells, and inhibit glucagon secretion, gastric emptying and food intake leading to weight loss. GIP and GLP-1 are known as incretins; incretin receptor signaling exerts physiologically relevant action critical for glucose homeostasis. In normal physiology, GIP and GLP-1 are secreted from the gut following a meal, and these incretins enhance the physiological response to food including sensation of satiety, insulin secretion, and nutrient disposal. T2D patients have impaired incretin responses.
Glucagon is a 29-amino acid peptide produced by the pancreas, and when bound to glucagon receptor, signals the liver to release glucose leading to an increase in blood glucose. GLP -2, a peptide that like GLP-1 is produced from processing of proglucagon, is known to be associated with cellular proliferation in the gut. Thus, stimulation of glucagon and GLP -2 receptors should be minimized during chronic treatment of T2D patients in order to maximize glucose lowering and reduce potential long term carcinogenic risks.
Certain GIP analogs have been described as exhibiting both GIP and GLP-1 activity in WO 2013/164483, WO 2014/192284, and WO 2011/119657. Further, the compound tirzepatide, a GIP/GLP1 receptor agonist peptide, is described and claimed in
US Patent 9474780. Tirzepatide is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in the treatment of diabetes, as an adjunct to diet and exercise.
DPP IV is in the exopeptidase class of proteolytic enzymes. The introduction of non-natural amino acids in a sequence may increase the proteolytic stability of any given peptide against DPP IV degradation.
There remains a need to provide additional treatment options for patients with T2D. The present single peptide compounds are dual agonists with both GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonism. Such peptides may deliver adequate stability against DPP IV and other forms of degradation, but while still maintaining a low immunogenicity potential. Provided are pharmaceutical compositions for use as a therapeutic.

The compounds of the present invention utilize a fatty acid chemically conjugated to the epsilon-amino group of a lysine side-chain. The fatty acid is conjugated to the epsilon-amino group of a lysine side-chain through a linker. The linker comprises [2-(2- Amino-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-acetyl)2-(YGlu)a wherein a is 1 to 2.

EXAMPLE 1
Y-Aib-EGTFTSDYSI-Aib-LDKIAQ-K((2-[2-(2-Amino-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-acetyl)2-(r-
Glu)-CO-(CH2)i8-CO2H)-AFVQWLIAGGP-OH (SEQ ID NO: 12).
The structure of SEQ ID NO: 12 is depicted below using the standard single letter amino acid codes, with the exception of residues Aib2, Aibl3 and K20, where the structures of these amino acid residues have been expanded:
The peptide backbone of Example 1 is synthesized using Fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc)/tert-Butyl (t-Bu) chemistry on a Symphony multiplex peptide synthesizer (Gyros Protein Technologies. Tucson, AZ).
The resin support consists of 1% DVB cross-linked polystyrene (H-Pro-2- chlorotrityl resin, 200-400 mesh, Novabiochem) at a substitution of 0.6 mmol/g. Standard side-chain protecting groups are used. Fmoc-Lys(Alloc)-OH is used for the lysine residue at position 20, and Boc-Tyr(tBu)-OH is used for the tyrosine residue at position 1. Fmoc groups are removed prior to each coupling step (2 x 10 minutes) using 20% piperidine in DMF. All standard amino acid couplings are performed for 1 hour, using an equal molar ratio of Fmoc amino acid (0.3 M in DMF), diisopropylcarbodiimide (0.9 M in DCM) and Oxyma (0.9 M in DMF), at a 9-fold molar excess over the theoretical peptide loading. Exceptions are couplings to Cc -m ethylated amino acids, which are coupled for 3 hours. After completion of the synthesis of the peptide backbone, the resin is thoroughly washed with DCM to remove residual DMF. The Alloc protecting group on the lysine residue at position 20 is selectively removed from the peptide resin by treatment with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (2 -fold molar excess) and phenylsilane (30-fold molar excess) in DCM (3 x 30 min treatments), and the resin is thoroughly washed with sodium di ethyldithiocarbamate (10% w/w in DMF, 3 x 5 min), followed by DCM and DMF.
Subsequent attachment of the linker moiety is accomplished by stepwise coupling of 2-[2-(2-Fmoc-amino-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-acetic acid (Fmoc-AEEA-OH, ChemPep, Inc.)
and Fmoc-glutamic acid cr-t-butyl ester (Fmoc-L-Glu-OtBu, Ark Pharm, Inc.), following the procedures described above for standard coupling and deprotection reactions. After removal of the final Fmoc protecting group, mono-OtBu-icosanedioic acid (WuXi AppTec, Shanghai, China) is coupled overnight using a 4-fold excess of the fatty acid, diisopropylcarbodiimide, and Oxyma (1 : 1 : 1 mol/mol/mol) in 1 : 1 DCM/DMF. After the synthesis is complete, the peptide-resin is washed with DCM and then thoroughly dried under vacuum.
The dry resin is treated with 10 mL of cleavage cocktail (trifluoroacetic acid: water: triisopropylsilane, 95:2.5:2.5 v/v) for 2 hours at room temperature. The resin is filtered off, washed twice each with 2 mL of neat TFA, and the combined filtrates are treated with 5-fold excess volume of cold diethyl ether (-20°C) to precipitate the crude peptide. The peptide/ether suspension is then centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 2 min to form a solid pellet, the supernatant is decanted, and the solid pellet is triturated with ether two additional times and dried in vacuo. The crude peptide is solubilized in 20 mL of 20% acetonitrile/20%acetic acid/60%water and purified by RP- HPLC on a SymmetryPrep 7 «m Cl 8 preparative column (19 x 300 mm, Waters) with linear gradients of a 100% acetonitrile and 0.1% TFA/water buffer system. The purity of peptide is assessed using analytical RP-HPLC and pooling criteria is >95%. Subsequent lyophilization of the final main product pool yielded the lyophilized peptide TFA salt. The main pool purity of Example 1 is found to be 96.0%. The molecular weight is determined by LC- MS (observed: M+3 =1378.7; calculated M+3 =1378.9).
ASSAYS
Provided below are the conditions and data for Examples in several assays. The provided assays support in vitro function and selectivity, immunogenicity profiling, pharmacokinetics, and in vivo type 2 diabetes models.
Binding Assays
Glucagon (referred to as Gcg) is a Reference Standard prepared at Eli Lilly and Company. GLP-1, 7-36-NH2 (referred to as GLP-1) is obtained from CPC Scientific (Sunnyvale, CA, 97.2% purity, 100 pM aliquots in 100% DMSO). GIP 1-42 (referred to as GIP) is prepared at Lilly Research Laboratories using peptide synthesis and HPLC
chromatography as described above (>80% purity, 100 pM aliquots in 100% DMSO). [125I]-radiolabeled Gcg, GLP-1, or GIP is prepared using [125I]-lactoperoxidase and obtained from Perkin Elmer (Boston, MA).
Stably transfected cell lines were prepared by subcloning receptor cDNA into a pcDNA3 expression plasmid and transfected into human embryonic kidney (EEK) 293 (hGcgR and hGLP-lR) or Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) (hGER) cells followed by selection with Geneticin (hGLP-lR and hGER) or hygromycin B (hGcgR).
Two methods were used for the preparation of crude cell membranes.
Method 1 : Frozen cell pellets were lysed on ice in hypotonic buffer containing 50 mM Tris HC1, pH 7.5, and Roche Complete™ Protease Inhibitors with EDTA. The cell suspension were disrupted using a glass Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer fitted with a Teflon® pestle for 25 strokes. The homogenate was centrifuged at about 4°C at 1100 x g for about 10 minutes. The supernatant was collected and stored on ice while the pellets were resuspended in homogenization buffer and rehomogenized, as described above. The homogenate was centrifuged at about 1100 x g for about 10 minutes. The second supernatant was combined with the first supernatant and centrifuged at about 35000 x g for about 1 hour at about 4°C. The resulting membrane pellet was resuspended in homogenization buffer containing protease inhibitors at approximately 1 to 3 mg/mL, quick frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored as aliquots in a -80°C freezer until use.
Method 2: Frozen cell pellets were lysed on ice in hypotonic buffer containing 50 mM Tris HC1, pH 7.5, 1 mM MgCh, Roche Complete™ EDTA-free Protease Inhibitors and 25 units/ml DNAse I (Invitrogen). The cell suspension was disrupted using a glass Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer fitted with a Teflon® pestle for 20 to 25 strokes. The homogenate was centrifuged at about 4°C at about 1800 x g for about 15 minutes. The supernatant was collected and stored on ice while the pellets were resuspended in homogenization buffer (without DNAse I) and rehomogenized, as described above. The homogenate was centrifuged at about 1800 x g for about 15 minutes. The second supernatant was combined with the first supernatant and centrifuged an additional time at about 1800 x g for about 15 minutes. The overall supernatant was then centrifuged at about 25000 x g for about 30 minutes at about 4°C. The resulting membrane pellet was
resuspended in homogenization buffer (without DNAse I) containing protease inhibitors at approximately 1 to 3 mg/mL and stored as aliquots in a -80°C freezer until use.
Binding Determination Methods
The equilibrium binding dissociation constants (Kd) for the various receptor/radioligand interactions were determined from homologous competition binding analysis instead of saturation binding due to high propanol content in the [125I] stock material. The I<d values determined for the receptor preparations were as follows: hGcgR (3.9 nM), hGLP-lR (1.2 nM) and hGIPR (0.14 nM). i125!] -Glucagon Binding
The human Gcg receptor binding assays were performed using a Scintillation Proximity Assay (SPA) format with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) beads (Perkin Elmer).

Plates were sealed and mixed on a plate shaker (setting 6) for 1 minute and read with a PerkinElmer Trilux MicroBeta® scintillation counter after 5 to 12 hours of incubation/ settling time at room temperature. Final assay concentration ranges for peptides tested in response curves were typically 1150 nM to 0.058 nM and for the control GLP-1, 250 nM to 0.013 nM. r125I1-GIP Binding
The human GIP receptor binding assay was performed using an SPA format with WGA beads. The binding buffer contained 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 2.5 mM CaCh, 1 mM MgCh, 0.1% (w/v) bacitracin, 0.003% (w/v) TWEEN®-20, and Roche Complete™ Protease Inhibitors without EDTA. Peptides and GIP were thawed and 3 fold serially diluted in 100% DMSO (10 point concentration response curves). Next, 5 pL serially diluted compound or DMSO was transferred into Corning® 3632 clear bottom assay plates containing 45 pL assay binding buffer or unlabeled GIP control (non-specific binding or NSB, at 0.25 pM final). Then, 50 pL [125I]-GIP (0.075-0.15 nM final), 50 pL human GIPR membranes (3 pg/well) and 50 pL of WGA SPA beads (100 to 150 pg/well) were added with a Biotek Multiflo dispenser. Plates were sealed and mixed on a plate shaker (setting 6) for 1 minute and read with a PerkinElmer Trilux MicroBeta® scintillation counter after 2.5 to 12 hours of incubation/ settling time at room temperature. Final assay concentration ranges for peptides tested in response curves was typically 1150 to 0.058 nM or 115 nM to 0.0058 nM and for the control GIP, 250 nM to 0.013 nM.
Binding Assay Data Analysis
Raw CPM data for concentration curves of peptides, Gcg, GLP-1, or GIP were converted to percent inhibition by subtracting nonspecific binding (binding in the presence of excess unlabeled Gcg, GLP-1, or GIP, respectively) from the individual CPM values and dividing by the total binding signal, also corrected by subtracting nonspecific binding. Data were analyzed using four-parameter (curve maximum, curve minimum,
IC50, Hill slope) nonlinear regression routines (Genedata Screener, version 12.0.4, Genedata AG, Basal, Switzerland). The affinity constant (Ki) was calculated from the absolute IC50 value based upon the equation Ki = ICso/(l + D/Kd) where D is the concentration of radioligand used in the experiment, IC50 is the concentration causing 50% inhibition of binding and Kais the equilibrium binding dissociation constant of the radioligand (described above). Values for Ki were reported as the geometric mean, with error expressed as the standard error of the mean (SEM) and n is equal to the number of independent replicates (determined in assays performed on different days). Geometric Means were calculated as follows:
Geometric Mean = lo(Arithmetic Mean of Log Ki Values)) n=l/x means that only one value out of the total number of replicates (x) is used to express the mean. SEM is only calculated when n=2 or greater non-qualified results exist. Means are expressed as GeoMetric means with the standard error of the mean (SEM) and the number of replicates (n) indicated in parenthesis.

Functional hGIP-R, hGLP-lR and hGCGR Assays
Methods: Functional activity was determined using cAMP formation in HEK- 293 clonal cell lines expressing hGIPR, hGLP-lR or hGCGR. hGIPR, hGLP-lR or hGCGR receptor-expressing cells were treated with a control polypeptide or one of Examples (20 point concentration-response curve in DMSO, 2.75-fold Labcyte Echo direct dilution, 384 well plate Corning Cat# 3570) in DMEM (Gibco Cat# 31053) supplemented with IX GlutaMAX™ (Gibco Cat# 35050), 0.1% bovine casein (Sigma C4765-10ML), 250 pM IBMX (3 -Isobutyl- 1 -methylxanthine, Acros Cat# 228420010) and 20 mM HEPES (Gibco Cat# 15630) in a 20 pL assay volume (final DMSO concentration was 0.5%). Experiments also were performed under substantially identical assay conditions with the addition of 1.0 % fatty acid free, globulin free human serum albumin (Sigma Cat# A3782).
After a 30-min incubation at 37°C, the resulting increase in intracellular cAMP was quantitatively determined using a CisBio cAMP Dynamic 2 HTRF Assay Kit (62AM4PEJ). Briefly, cAMP levels within the cell are detected by adding the cAMP-d2 conjugate in cell lysis buffer (10 pL) followed by the antibody anti-cAMP-Eu3+-Cryptate, also in cell lysis buffer (10 pL). The resulting competitive assay was incubated for at least 60 min at room temperature, and then was detected using a PerkinElmer Envision® instrument with excitation at 320 nm and emission at 665 nm and 620 nm. Envision units (emission at 665nm/620nm* 10,000) are inversely proportional to the amount of cAMP present and are converted to nM cAMP per well using a cAMP standard curve. The amount of cAMP generated (nM) in each well is converted to a percent of the maximal response observed with human GIP(1-42)NH2, hGLP-l(7-36)NH2 or hGCG. A relative ECso value and percent top (Emax) were derived by non-linear regression analysis using the percent maximal response vs. the concentration of peptide added, fitted to a four- parameter logistic equation.
Results: Functional data for hGIP(l-42)NH2, hGLP-l(7-36)NH2, hGCG and the Example compound are provided below in Table 2 (0.1% bovine casein) and Table 3 (0.1% bovine casein, 1.0% human serum albumin).

Blood samples are collected over 168 hours and resulting individual plasma concentrations are used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters. Plasma (I<s EDTA) concentrations are determined using a qualified LC/MS method that measures the intact mass of the test peptide. Each test peptide and an analog as an internal standard are extracted from 100% mouse plasma using immunoaffinity based precipitation with anti-GIP/GLPl antibodies. Instruments are combined for LC/MS detection. Mean pharmacokinetic parameters determine if the test peptide is consistent with an extended pharmacokinetic profile.
Insulin Secretion in Male Wistar Rats
Male Wistar rats with femoral artery and femoral vein canulas (Envigo, Indianapolis, IN) (280- 320 grams) are single-housed in polycarbonate cages with filter tops. Rats maintained on a 12: 12 h light-dark cycle (lights on at 6:00 A.M.) at 21°C and receive food and deionized water ad libitum. Rats are randomized by body weight and dosed 1.5 ml/kg s.c. at test peptide doses of 0.04, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, and 10 nmol/kg 16 hours prior to glucose administration then fasted. Animals are weighed and anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital dosed i.p. (65 mg/kg, 30 mg/ml). A time 0 blood sample is collected into EDTA tubes after which glucose is administered i.v. (0.5 mg/kg, 5 ml/kg). Blood samples are collected for glucose and insulin levels at time 2, 4, 6, 10, 20 and 30 min post intravenous administration of glucose. Plasma glucose levels are determined using a clinical chemistry analyzer. Plasma insulin is determined using an electrochemiluminescence assay (Meso Scale, Gaithersburg, MD). Glucose and insulin AUC are examined compared to the vehicle control with n = 5 animals per group.
Results are presented (SEM)(N). Results show the test peptide effect on insulin secretion during intravenous glucose tolerance test. Results show test peptide dose dependent effect on insulin secretion.
Diet-Induced Obese C57/B16 Mice
C57/B16 diet-induced obese (DIO) male mice (Taconic, Germantown, NY) weighing 41-50 g are used. Animals are individually housed in a temperature-controlled (24°C) facility with a 12 hour light/dark photoperiod (lights off at 10:00 AM and lights on at 10:00 PM), with free access to food and water. After 2 week acclimatization to the facility, mice are randomized to treatment groups (n=6/group) based on body weight so each group has similar starting mean body weight.
Mice are treated with either vehicle (40 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0) or a test peptide between the dose range of about 0.03 nmol/kg to about 10 nmol/kg. Treatments are subcutaneously administered to ad libitum fed DIO mice 30-90 minutes prior to the onset of the dark cycle daily (QD) for 14 days. Monitor body weight and food intake daily.
Data are expressed as mean ± SEM of 5-6 rats per group. Statistical analyses are assessed by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test to compare treatment groups to vehicle group or each other. Significant differences are identified at p<0.05.
Percent Body Weight = Body weight after 14-day treatment x 100 Body weight before treatment started
“0” dose group represents the vehicle-treated mice during each study. All data are expressed as mean ± SEM of 5-6 mice per group. “A from vehicle” refers to difference between body weight at day 15 between test and vehicle groups. “% change” refers to percent decrease in body weight between days 1 and 15 in test groups. Record percent decrease in body weight for animals receiving vehicle. The A from vehicle and % change data are statistically significantly different (p<0.05) than control for a peptide testing positive in the assay.
