Page/Page column 191, (2019/10/15)
This disclosure features chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or hydrate and/or prodrug of the compound) that modulate (e.g., agonize or partially agonize or antagonize) glucagon?like peptide?1 receptor ("GLP?1R") and/or the gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor ("GIPR"). The chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a subject (e.g., a human) having a disease, disorder, or condition in which modulation (e.g., agonism, partial agonism or antagonism) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activities is benficial for the treatment or prevention of the underlying pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, the modulation results in an enhancment of (e.g., an increase in) existing levels (e.g., normal or below normal levels) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activity (e.g., signaling). In some embodiments, the chemical entities described herein further modulate (e.g., attenuate, uncouple) -arrestin signaling relative to what is observed with the native ligand. This disclosure also features compositions as well as other methods of using and making the said chemical entities.

A glucokinase activator is provided; and a treatment and/or a preventive for diabetes, or a treatment and/or a preventive for diabetes such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neurosis, ischemic cardiopathy, arteriosclerosis, and further a treatment and/or a preventive for obesity are provided. The invention relates to a compound of a formula (I): [wherein R1 and R2 represent a hydrogen, etc.; R3 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, etc.; R4 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, etc.; Q represents a carbon atom, a nitrogen atom or a sulfur atom (the sulfur atom may be mono- or di-substituted with an oxo group); R5 and R6 each represent a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, etc.; X1, X2, X3 and X4 each independently represent a carbon atom or a nitrogen atom; Z represents an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom; Ar represents an aryl or heteroaryl group optionally mono to tri-substituted with a group selected from the substituent group β; ring A represents a 5- or 6-membered nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic group; m indicates an integer of from 1 to 6; n indicates an integer of from 0 to 3; p indicates an integer of from 0 to 2 (provided that at least two of X1 to X4 are carbon atoms); q indicates 0 or 1] or its pharmaceutically-acceptable salt, which has an effect of glucokinase activation and is useful as a treatment for diabetes.
