Abstract: The invention provides a conjugate comprising a biomolecule linked to a fatty acid via a linker wherein the fatty acid has the following Formulae A1, A2 or A3: wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, Ak, n, m and p are defined herein. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the conjugate of the invention such as GDF15 conjugate, and its therapeutic uses such as treatment or prevention of metabolic disorders or diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, pancreatitis, dyslipidemia, alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease/steatohepatitis and other progressive liver diseases, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, glucose intolerance, hyperglycemia, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, peripheral arterial disease, stroke, heart failure, coronary heart disease, diabetic complications (including but not limited to chronic kidney disease), neuropathy, gastroparesis and other metabolic disorders.

Abstract: The invention provides a pharmaceutical combination including an ?v?1 integrin inhibitor and at least one additional therapeutic agent for preventing, delaying or treating liver diseases or disorders. The additional therapeutic agent may be an SGLT1/2 inhibitor, among a diverse selection of agents. For example, the pharmaceutical combination includes (S)-2-(4-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxamido)-9-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl) nonanoic acid (Compound 1) and at least one additional therapeutic agent.

Abstract: The invention provides a pharmaceutical combination including an ?v?1 integrin inhibitor and at least one additional therapeutic agent for preventing, delaying or treating liver diseases or disorders. The at least one additional therapeutic agent may be a farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist. For example, the pharmaceutical combination includes (S)-2-(4-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxamido)-9-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl)nonanoic acid (Compound 1) and 2-[3-({5-cyclopropyl-3-[2-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazol-4-yl}methoxy)-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-yl]-4-fluoro-1, 3-ben-zothiazole-6-carboxylic acid (tropifexor).
