, (2020/12/07)
In part, the invention provides a new combination comprising (1) a GLP-1R agonist and (2) an ACC inhibitor or a DGAT2 inhibitor, or a KHK inhibitor or FXR agonist. The invention further provides new methods for treating diseases and disorders, for example, fatty liver, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis with liver fibrosis, nonalcoholic steatohepotitis with cirrhosis, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis with cirrhosis and with hepatocellular carcinoma or with a metabolic-related disease, obesity, and type 2 diabetes, for example, using the new combination described herein.

The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor that acts as a master regulator of bile acid metabolism and signaling. Activation of FXR inhibits bile acid synthesis and increases bile acid conjugation, transport, and excretion, thereby protecting the liver from the harmful effects of bile accumulation, leading to considerable interest in FXR as a therapeutic target for the treatment of cholestasis and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. We identified a novel series of highly potent non-bile acid FXR agonists that introduce a bicyclic nortropine-substituted benzothiazole carboxylic acid moiety onto a trisubstituted isoxazole scaffold. Herein, we report the discovery of 1 (tropifexor, LJN452), a novel and highly potent agonist of FXR. Potent in vivo activity was demonstrated in rodent PD models by measuring the induction of FXR target genes in various tissues. Tropifexor has advanced into phase 2 human clinical trials in patients with NASH and PBC.
