The present invention relates to phenyl alkanoic acid derivatives (the compounds of Formula (I)); and their isotopic forms, stereoisomeric and tautomeric forms and mixtures thereof in all ratios, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, prodrugs, polymorphs, N-oxides, S-oxides or carboxylic acid isosteres thereof. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of Formula (I) and pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more of the compounds of Formula (I). The said compounds and the pharmaceutical composition function as GPR (G-protein coupled receptor) agonists, particularly as GPR40 agonists, and are useful in the treatment of diseases or conditions mediated by GPR40. The present invention further relates to a method of treatment of diseases or conditions mediated by GPR40comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of the compounds of Formula (I).

G protein-coupled receptor 40 (GPR40)/free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1) is a free fatty acid (FFA) receptor that mediates FFA-amplified glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells. We previously identified (2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-3-yl)acetic acid derivative 2 as a candidate, but it had relatively high lipophilicity. Adding a polar functional group on 2 yielded several compounds with lower lipophilicity and little effect on caspase-3/7 activity at 30 μM (a marker of toxicity in human HepG2 hepatocytes). Three optimized compounds showed promising pharmacokinetic profiles with good in vivo effects. Of these, compound 16 had the lowest lipophilicity. Metabolic analysis of 16 showed a long-acting PK profile due to high resistance to β-oxidation. Oral administration of 16 significantly reduced plasma glucose excursion and increased insulin secretion during an OGTT in type 2 diabetic rats. Compound 16 (TAK-875) is being evaluated in human clinical trials for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
