  • Publication number: 20160200791
    Abstract: The present invention relates to tri-acylated GLP-1 derivatives, acylated at positions corresponding to positions (18, 22, 30), (18, 26, 37), (18, 27, 37), (26, 30, 37), or (27, 30, 37) of the native human glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1 (7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1); or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, amides, or esters thereof. The acylated side chains comprise a protracting moiety selected from Chem. 1: HOOC—(CH2)16—CO—*, Chem. 1a: HOOC—(CH2)18—CO—*, and Chem. 2: HO3S—(CH2)15—CO—*, and the protracting moieties are connected, via a linker, to a Lys residue of the GLP-1 peptide. The GLP-1 peptide has a maximum of seven amino acid changes as compared to GLP-1 (7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1). The invention also relates to intermediate products in the form of novel GLP-1 analogues, as well as to pharmaceutical compositions and uses of the derivatives and analogues, in particular for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

  • Publication number: 20160143998
    Abstract: The invention relates to a derivative of a GLP-1 analogue, optionally C-terminally extended, which derivative comprises a first and a second protracting moiety in the form of a C20 or C22 diacid radical, a bis-amino branched linker, and a first and a second further linker each comprising an OEG-like linker element; wherein these elements are interconnected via amide bonds and attached to a Lys residue of the GLP-1 analogue. The invention also relates to intermediate products in the form of novel GLP-1 analogues incorporated in the derivatives of the invention, as well pharmaceutical compositions and medical uses of the derivatives. The derivatives have very long half-lives while maintaining a satisfactory potency, which makes them potentially suitable for once-monthly administration.

  • Publication number: 20150011462
    Abstract: The invention relates to derivatives of GLP-1 like peptides which are C-terminally extended analogues of native GLP-1. The derivatives comprise two side chains, one at a position corresponding to position 42, and one at a position corresponding to position 18, 23, 27, 31, 36, or 38, wherein both positions are when compared to GLP-1(7-37). The side chains comprise a C19, C20, or C22 diacid protracting moiety and optionally a linker. The invention also relates to intermediate products in the form of novel GLP-1 analogues incorporated in the derivatives of the invention, as well as pharmaceutical compositions and medical uses of the derivatives. The derivatives have very long half-lives while maintaining a satisfactory potency, which makes them potentially suitable for once-monthly administration.
