ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The disease, diabetes mellitus, is recognized in two forms. Type I diabetes requires exogenous insulin for control of the disease because it appears that endogenous production of insulin by the Isles of Langerhans in the pancreas is extremely poor or non-existent. Type I diabetes is often referred to as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Type II, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), is characterized by defects of insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues such as adipose tissue and muscle, as described by J. E. Gerich in
New Engl. J. Med.,
321, 1231-1245 (1989).
Hyperlipidemia is often observed in diabetics (
Diabetes Care,
18, Supplement 1, 86-93, 1995). The combination of hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia greatly increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases in diabetics. Successful treatment of hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia in diabetics is needed urgently.
Blank reviewed hypoglycemic agents (
Burger's Medicinal Chemistry,
4th Ed., Part II, John Wiley and Sons, N.Y., 1979, 1057-1080). Newer hypoglycemic agents were reviewed by Hulin in
Progress in Medicinal Chemistry,
31, ed. G. P. Ellis and D. K. Luscombe, Elsevier Publishing Co., 1993.
Currently, partial control of NIDDM is achieved by a diet and exercise regimen, by administration of exogenous insulin, by administration of hypoglycemic agents, (e.g. the sulfonylureas), or by some combination of these protocols. Sulfonylureas, such as chloropropamide, acetohexamide and tolbutamide, are useful orally-effective hypoglycemic agents achieving success in the control of NIDDM in numbers of patients. However, drugs currently available for the control of the hyperglycemia associated with type II diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) possess significant liabilities or limitations of efficacy. (Ellingboe, et al.,
J. Med. Chem.
36:2485-2493, 1993). Considerable effort has been expended toward developing novel, orally-administered antihyperglycemic drugs. A preferred therapeutic approach for treating NIDDM incorporates drugs that counteract insulin resistance rather than those that stimulate endogenous insulin secretion. (J. R. Colca and D. R. Morton,
New Antidiabetic Drugs,
ed. C. J. Bailey and P. R. Flatt, Smith-Gordon and Company, Ltd., London, Chapter 24, 1990). Drugs that treat insulin resistance are called insulin sensitivity enhancers.
Sato, Y, et al. (
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice,
12:53-60, 1991) described the hypoglycemic effect of D-phenylalanine derivatives. In normal dogs, the hypoglycemic activity of the compound was greater than that of tolbutamide but less than that of glibenclamide. The compounds exerted a rapid hypoglycemic effect and improved glucose tolerance in genetically diabetic KK mice and in streptozotocin-treated rats. Yamasaki, et al. disclosed a group of 2-quinolone derivatives showing antidiabetic activity in NIDDM (WO 92/21342).
Some known hypoglycemic compounds also reduce serum cholesterol or triglyceride levels. (Clark, et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,036,079). The combination of these biological activities in one compound is particularly advantageous because diabetics are highly susceptible to hyperlipidemia. Hulin, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,306,726, claimed phenylpropionic acid derivatives and disclosed compounds that had hypoglycemic and hypocholesterolemic activity useful for the treatment of diabetes and atherosclerosis. Miyata, et al. found a class of phosphonic diester derivatives useful for treating diabetes and hyperlipidemia (WO 93/23409). Hypolipidemic amino acid derivatives were disclosed in JA-028189. Highly substituted aryl ethers of tyrosine were reported to have hypocholesterolemic activity (
J. Med. Chem.,
38:695-707, 1995). No aklyl ethers of tyrosine were disclosed.
