The present invention relates to pyrrolopyridone compounds of the formula (I),
salts thereof, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in medicine. In particular, the invention relates to compounds as activators of AMPK.
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an evolutionarily conserved fuel-sensing enzyme that is activated in shortage of energy and suppressed in its surfeit. AMPK activation stimulates fatty acid oxidation, enhances insulin sensitivity, alleviates hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, and inhibits proinflammatory changes. Thus, AMPK is a well-received therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders. Here, we will report the discovery of pyrrolopyridone derivatives' as AMPK direct activators. We will illustrate the synthesis and structure activity relationships of the series as well as some pharmacokinetic results. Some compounds exhibited encouraging oral exposure and were evaluated in a mouse diabetic model Compound 17 showed oral activity at 30 mg/kg on blood glucose.
