Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This disclosure relates to novel compounds comprising one or more aromatic boron-containing groups, including diboronates. This disclosure relates to the use of novel compounds for binding to glucose. This disclosure further relates to the use of kits and compounds and / or pharmaceutical compositions comprising the disclosed compounds for the treatment of disorders characterized by elevated glucose levels, such as hyperglycemia, prediabetes and diabetes (e.g., type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, MODY 1, MODY 2, or MODY 3 diabetes), impaired glucose tolerance, obesity, metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, neurological disorders, mood disorders, and psychiatric disorders.
[0002] Sequence List This application is filed together with an electronic sequence listing. The sequence listing is provided as a file titled "30583M_WO_SL.xml," created on April 10, 2024, and is 30,688,753 bytes in size. The electronic information of the sequence listing is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]
[0003] Boronic acids are generally considered Lewis acids, and because they can form complexes with Lewis bases such as hydroxide anions, they are thought to have a tendency to bind to hydroxyls. Therefore, molecules containing boronic acid or boronic acid salts have a general tendency to bind to hydroxyl groups. This binding tendency can be used to detect hydroxyl-containing groups with boron-oxidized labeling reagents, where the boronic acid group binds to the hydroxyl, and depending on the solvent and buffer conditions, the boronic acid salt can form a hydrolyzable boronic acid ester bond to the hydroxyl group of a hydroxyl-containing molecule, such as the hydroxyl group present in a diol (e.g., glucose). While boron-containing compounds can bind to diol-containing molecules, achieving selectivity using boron-containing compounds has been difficult due to their ability to bind to various diols, including cis-diols, to varying degrees. Improved binding affinity of boron-containing compounds to a specific adjacent diol of interest may be achieved, but this may result in a loss of selectivity.
[0004] Glucose is the body's primary fuel, and blood glucose levels in healthy individuals are tightly controlled. For example, between meals, blood glucose levels are around 5 mmol / L (mM), and after a meal, when blood glucose levels rise, insulin quickly returns them to 5 mM. The hormone insulin is secreted from beta cells in the pancreas, and when insulin binds to insulin receptors in the body's cells (e.g., muscle and fat), the cells are stimulated to absorb glucose through translocation of glucose transporters (GLUT4) from storage vesicles to the cell surface (see, for example, Huang, SH et al. Cell Metabolism, 5:237-252 (2007)).
[0005] Diabetic patients may lose the ability to produce insulin due to autoimmunity against beta cells (Type 1), or they may have reduced insulin sensitivity in combination with impaired insulin secretion (Type 2). For example, individuals with Type 1 diabetes can control their glucose levels by relying on multiple daily insulin injections, typically once daily and with meals (bolus), for basic use (see, e.g., Polonsky, K. Set al. The Journal of Clinical Investigation 81:442-448 (1988)). Complete daily insulin administration is extremely difficult because glucose levels can fluctuate unpredictably. In fact, despite many technological advances in diabetes treatment, researchers are now observing a deterioration in long-term glucose control and / or overall metabolic health, partly due to lifestyle issues.
[0006] Glucose sensors and glucose-sensing insulin analogs are known in the art. See, for example, International Publication Nos. 2016 / 179568(A1) and 2021 / 202802(A1). However, there is a need in the art to develop glucose sensors and glucose-sensing insulins that have improved properties, such as binding to insulin receptors, respond proportionally to different glucose concentrations, and provide a stepwise and reversible response to changes in glucose levels under physiological conditions.
[0007] Therefore, there is an unmet medical need for novel compounds, such as those that can control blood glucose levels, bind to glucose, and can be used in glucose-responsive insulin analogs / conjugates.
[0008] According to certain embodiments, the inventors disclose glucose sensors and glucose-sensing insulin analogs having improved properties, such as an extended terminal half-life and / or reduced clearance, improved affinity for the insulin receptor, and / or improved activation of the insulin receptor.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0075] While aromatic boron-containing compounds (e.g., 3A) can bind to diol-containing molecules, achieving selectivity using aromatic boron-containing compounds (which can function as molecular sensors) is difficult due to their ability to bind to various diols, including cis-diols, to varying degrees. Improved binding affinity of aromatic boron-containing compounds (which can function as sensors) to a specific adjacent diol of interest may result in a loss of selectivity.
[0076] A framework in which the boron functional groups (e.g., sensors) of an aromatic boron-containing compound are arranged in a specific or specific shape can enhance selectivity for a particular vicinal diol while maintaining affinity for the diol of interest. According to some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compounds disclosed herein have different pendant groups on an aromatic boron-based framework, along with specific framework shapes that affect binding to hydroxyl-containing molecules.
[0077] According to some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure include aromatic boron-containing compounds having boron functional groups oriented in three-dimensional space, the boron-containing compounds being spatially oriented to bond with hexoses containing adjacent diols, the boron groups being able to appropriately bond with hydroxyl groups of adjacent diol molecules, and providing enhanced selectivity. In some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compounds are modified with specific functional groups on an aromatic ring, together with a suitable or preferred backbone, which can provide higher selectivity and / or affinity for bonding toward the adjacent diol of interest and away from other diols in the body.
[0078] In some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compound is conjugated to the active pharmaceutical ingredient (e.g., a small molecule, polypeptide), and the aromatic boron-containing compound provides intramolecular and / or intermolecular interactions with the active pharmaceutical ingredient and / or proteins in the body, such as albumin and / or globulins, which are circulating proteins in blood and / or plasma. In some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compound exhibits reversible binding to glycated proteins in the body, such as glycated albumin, and this binding is reversibly influenced by the level of blood glucose or plasma glucose molecules. In some embodiments, selective binding of the sensor to specific adjacent diols alters the degree of their intramolecular and / or intermolecular binding, thereby regulating the pharmacokinetics and overall activity of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the body. This effect can be controlled by the level of adjacent diols present.
[0079] In some embodiments, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is a peptide hormone. In some embodiments, the human peptide hormone, e.g., the peptide hormone, is insulin or an insulin analog, glucagon, or another incretin hormone. In some embodiments, the sensor is selective for adjacent diols in glucose, and this selectivity is enhanced while maintaining affinity for glucose and simultaneously reducing affinity for other sugars in the blood. In some embodiments, pendant groups on the backbone and the aromatic core of the boron-containing compound (e.g., in combination) allow for control of the overall activity and / or pharmacokinetics of the conjugated API based on the levels of glucose and / or other adjacent diols in the blood.
[0080] In some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compound comprises a specific skeletal molecule (e.g., FF structure, FFL-1 to FFL-68, DSL-1 to DSL-172) having conjugated boron functional groups (e.g., F1 to F11), the skeletal structure being used to orient the boron functional groups in a three-dimensional shape such that the boron functional groups are oriented close to each other and within a distance that helps them engage with a specific hydroxyl orientation of a selected hexose such as glucose. In some embodiments, the boron functional group is selected from F1 to F11. In some embodiments, the boron functional group is selected from F2, F6, and F7. In some embodiments, the boron functional group is selected from F2 and F7. In some embodiments, the boron functional group is F2. In some embodiments, the boron functional group is F7.
[0081] While not bound by theory, the aromatic boron-containing compounds (e.g., molecules) disclosed herein are thought to improve selectivity by at least one of the following three mechanisms: (1) The FF skeleton promotes the alignment of the orientation of the hydroxyl and / or alkoxy groups on the boron group in the aromatic boron-containing compound with the hydroxyl group in the adjacent diol molecule, thereby improving selectivity. (2) Further increases in selectivity can be obtained by identifying specific functional groups attached to or near the aromatic core of the boron-containing compound that influence the electronic structure of the aromatic boron-containing compound, thereby favoring reversible bonding to the adjacent diol at physiological pH. (3) Functional groups attached to the aromatic boron-containing compound (e.g., sensor skeleton) help provide steric hindrance to reduce bonding to undesirable hexoses while maintaining bonding to a desired sugar such as glucose. In some embodiments, the FF skeleton provides glucose bonding. In some embodiments, the combination of the FF skeleton and indirect and / or direct linkers provides affinity to plasma proteins, e.g., glycated proteins, though not limited to those mentioned above, and the combination of the FF skeleton and indirect and / or direct linkers (e.g., Z1b) provides reversible interactions with plasma proteins controlled by the binding of sugar molecules to the FF skeleton under physiological conditions. These effects combined in this disclosure (e.g., compounds of formulas I, III) provide desired or preferred selectivity of binding toward the adjacent diol-containing molecule of interest and away from other diols in the body.
[0082] In some embodiments, an aromatic boron-containing compound is conjugated to a drug substance (API) that provides intramolecular and / or intermolecular interactions between the aromatic boron-containing compound and proteins in the body. Such proteins may include circulating proteins in blood and / or human plasma, such as albumin, glycosylated proteins, and / or glycated proteins including immunoglobulins and glycated plasma proteins such as glycated albumin. In some embodiments, selective binding of the sensor to a specific adjacent diol in the molecule of interest alters the degree of intramolecular and intermolecular binding, thereby modulating the pharmacokinetics and overall activity of the API in the body. In some embodiments, the API is a peptide hormone, and in certain embodiments, the peptide hormone is an incretin hormone such as insulin, and the adjacent diol-containing molecule is glucose, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the lipophilic moiety has carbon atoms between a lower limit of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 and an upper limit of 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14. In some embodiments, the lipophilic moiety has carbon atoms between a lower limit of 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 and an upper limit of 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. In some embodiments, the lipophilic moiety is selected from the group consisting of saturated or unsaturated linear or branched alkyl moieties, saturated or unsaturated linear or branched fatty acid moieties, cholesterol, and adamantane.Examples of alkyl moieties include saturated linear alkyl moieties such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl, undecyl, dodecyl, tridecyl, tetradecyl, pentadecyl, hexadecyl, octadecyl, nonadecyl, and eicosyl; saturated branched alkyl moieties such as isopropyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, 2-methylbutyl, tert-pentyl, 2-methyl-pentyl, 3-methylpentyl, 2-ethylhexyl, and 2-propylpentyl; and unsaturated alkyl moieties derived from the above saturated alkyl moieties, including but not limited to vinyl, allyl, 1-butenyl, 2-butenyl, ethynyl, 1-propynyl, and 2-propynyl.

[0134] As used herein, “combination therapy” or administration “in combination with” one or more additional therapeutic agents includes the administration of two or more active agents (e.g., two or more pharmacological agents) intended to treat a given indication and / or a related condition. The administration may be simultaneous (parallel) or sequential (sequential) in any order. The two or more agents of “combination therapy” may be formulated as separate compositions (e.g., formulations) or as a single composition (formulation). “Combination therapy” includes the administration of agents having different mechanisms of action or targeting different indications and / or conditions, as well as agents having similar mechanisms of action or targeting similar indications and / or conditions. For example, because patients with type 1 diabetes produce little to no insulin, effective insulin therapy for type 1 diabetes may involve the use of two types of extracorporeal insulin: rapid-acting mealtime insulin delivered by bolus injection, and long-acting basal insulin administered once or twice daily between meals to control blood glucose levels. Treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes typically begins with prescribed weight loss, exercise, and a diabetic diet. However, if these measures fail to control elevated blood glucose levels, oral medications and incretin therapy may be required, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and / or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors that increase incretin levels. If these medications remain insufficient, insulin therapy may be considered. Patients with type 2 diabetes whose disease has progressed to the point of requiring insulin therapy may generally begin with once-daily injections of long-acting basal insulin, but in some cases, rapid-acting insulin injections with meals may be appropriately included. In some embodiments, this disclosure provides combination therapies comprising administering rapid-acting insulin and basal insulin and / or a fusion protein comprising, for example, one or more diboronate sensors disclosed herein.
[0135] The terms “administer,” “give administration,” or “dosage” include any method or act of delivering a pharmacological agent (e.g., a medicine) to an intended subject (e.g., a patient). The pharmacological agent may be any suitable therapeutic agent, such as a biological agent, such as an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment (e.g., a pharmaceutical composition containing such an antibody or antigen-binding fragment), a peptide agent (e.g., a hormone or a modified analog thereof), or a low molecular weight agent (e.g., a structurally defined small molecule or chemical substance). Administration of a pharmacological agent may be systemic or topical. In some embodiments, administration may include one or more pharmacological agents that can be administered in parallel, simultaneously, or sequentially.
[0136] The terms “simultaneous” and “parallel” are used interchangeably and, as herein, are used to refer to the administration of two or more therapeutic agents in which at least a portion of the administrations overlaps in time, or the administration of the second therapeutic agent occurs within a period shorter than the time required to initiate the subsequent administration after the administration of the first therapeutic agent. For example, simultaneous administration includes administering a second drug after a first drug without adding any delay beyond the time required to complete the first administration and initiate the second administration.
[0137] The terms “sequentially” and “continuously” are used interchangeably and herein to refer to the administration of two or more therapeutic agents with a grace period between the administration of one therapeutic agent and the administration of another. For example, continuous administration includes the administration of two or more therapeutic agents administered at time intervals of more than about 15 minutes, for example, about 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes, one day, two days, three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, or one month or longer.
[0138] As used herein, the term “basal insulin” may refer to several types of basal insulin, such as long-acting insulin. For example, insulin glargine, marketed under the trade name LANTUS®, contains a modified insulin structure in which asparagine at position 21 in the insulin A chain is replaced with glycine, and two arginines are added to the C-terminus of the B chain. In another example, insulin glargine-algr, marketed under the trade name LANTUS®, contains a modified insulin structure in which asparagine at position 21 in the insulin A chain is replaced with glycine, and two arginines are added to the C-terminus of the B chain. In yet another example, insulin detemir, marketed under the trade name LEVEMIR®, contains a modified insulin structure in which threonine at position 30 in the B chain is deleted, and lysine at position 29 in the B chain is derivatized through a covalent bond between a 14-carbon myristoyl fatty acid and the amine group of lysine at position B29. Insulin degludec, available in Europe and Japan under the trade name TRESIBA®, contains a modified insulin structure in which threonine at position 30 of the B chain is deleted and the ε-amino group of lysine at position 29 of the B chain is covalently derivatized with hexadecanedioic acid via a γ-L-glutamic acid linker. All of these insulins are suitable for once-daily administration. In some embodiments, the Disclosure provides the use of one or more compounds (e.g., fusion proteins of formula I or formula IB) in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals for the treatment of diseases (e.g., diabetes mellitus, obesity, dyslipidemia, or metabolic syndrome), and the pharmaceuticals are administered simultaneously, separately, or sequentially in combination with other active ingredients. The compounds and combinations disclosed herein (e.g., compounds of formula I or formula IB, fusion proteins) are effective in treating diseases and / or conditions in subjects requiring them by administering a therapeutically effective amount of the compounds and / or compositions of the Disclosure to patients requiring them.
[0139] As used herein, the terms “therapeutic dose” and “preventive dose” refer to the amount that provides therapeutic benefit in treating, preventing, or managing a disease or its apparent symptoms. A therapeutic dose may treat a disease or condition, its symptoms, or its predisposition to disease for the purpose of treating, curing, reducing, alleviating, modifying, correcting, improving, or influencing the disease, its symptoms, or predisposition to disease. A therapeutically effective set or specific amount can be readily determined by a typical healthcare professional and may vary depending on factors known in the art, such as the type of disease, the patient’s medical history and age, the stage of the disease, and the administration of other therapeutic agents. In some embodiments, the term “therapeutic dose” refers to the amount of a combination of the compounds and / or pharmaceutical compositions and / or active substances disclosed herein that is sufficient to regulate a patient’s blood glucose without causing unacceptable side effects. The therapeutic dose of a combination of the compounds and / or pharmaceutical compositions and / or active substances disclosed herein administered to a subject depends on the type and severity of the disease and the subject’s characteristics, such as general health, age, sex, weight, and tolerance to the drug. Those skilled in the art will be able to determine an appropriate dose depending on these and other factors. For example, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 0.01 nmol / kg to about 100 nmol / kg. In some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 1 nmol / kg to about 50 nmol / kg. In some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 16 nmol / kg to about 25 nmol / kg. In certain embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 1 mg to about 200 mg. In some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 25 mg to about 175 mg. In some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose of the fusion protein of this disclosure when administered once a week is in the range of about 100 mg to about 160 mg.
[0140] The terms “subject” and “patient” are used interchangeably herein and refer to the person receiving therapy or treatment. In some embodiments, “subject” and “patient” are human beings.
[0141] The terms "blood glucose level" and "blood glucose" are used interchangeably herein and refer to the concentration of sugar present in the blood. The amount of sugar in a blood sample can be measured using a blood glucose meter or glucometer. Blood glucose levels are generally measured as mg of sugar per dL of blood (mg / dL). Blood glucose levels can refer to any level of sugar disclosed herein. For example, blood glucose levels include the concentration of glucose in the blood, also known as blood glucose / concentration.
[0142] As used herein, the term “steady state” refers to a constant / fixed state in which there is no increase or decrease in the variable of interest, or the fluctuation is minimal (i.e., less than 10%). In some embodiments, an insulin receptor agonist is infused intravenously (IV) in a fixed-dose bolus, and blood glucose is maintained at a predetermined “steady state” level (e.g., 100 mg / dL for normal blood glucose, 200 mg / dL for hyperglycemia) by continuous infusion of glucose at a variable rate (mg / kg / min). The amount of glucose infused to maintain the “steady state” blood glucose level is equal to the systemic glucose uptake and utilization.
[0143] The term "hyperglycemia" is used herein to refer to physiologically high blood glucose levels. Hyperglycemia refers to a state of physiologically high blood glucose levels. The blood glucose levels considered hyperglycemic vary depending on the species. For example, in rats, hyperglycemia refers to blood glucose levels of 200 mg / dL or higher. In humans, hyperglycemia refers to blood glucose levels greater than 180 mg / dL.
[0144] The term "normal blood glucose" is used herein to refer to physiologically normal blood glucose levels. Normal blood glucose refers to a state of normal blood glucose levels. Blood glucose levels considered normal vary depending on the species. For example, in rats, normal blood glucose refers to blood glucose levels below 200 mg / dL. In humans, normal blood glucose refers to blood glucose levels between 70 and 180 mg / dL.
[0145] The term "glucose infusion rate" is used herein to refer to the rate at which glucose is injected into a subject. The glucose infusion rate (GIR) is calculated in mg / kg / min as follows: (infusion rate (mL / hour) × glucose concentration (g / dL) × 1000 (mg / g)) / weight (kg) × 60 (min / hour) × 100 (mL / dL), where "infusion rate" refers to the rate at which glucose is injected into the subject, "glucose concentration" refers to the concentration of glucose being injected, and "weight" refers to the body weight of the subject. In some embodiments, the GIR corresponds to the glucose infusion rate required to maintain a specific blood glucose level.
[0146] As used herein, the term “relative glucose infusion rate difference” refers to the difference in the amount of glucose infused between two different conditions, experiments, or measurements. In some embodiments, it may be measured by taking the difference between (a) the area under the curve (AUC) for one recorded GIR to maintain a particular blood glucose concentration and (b) the AUC for another recorded GIR to maintain a different blood glucose concentration. Generally, the AUC for the GIR to maintain a lower blood glucose concentration is subtracted from the AUC for the GIR to maintain a higher blood glucose concentration. For example, if the AUC for a first GIR (providing a blood glucose concentration of 100 mg / dL) is 600 mg / kg / min and the AUC for a second GIR (providing a blood glucose concentration of 200 mg / dL) is 800 mg / kg / min, then subtracting the AUC of the first GIR from the AUC of the second GIR gives a relative glucose infusion rate difference of 200 mg / kg / min.
[0147] As used herein, the term “relative glucose infusion rate ratio” refers to the ratio of the amount of glucose injected between two different conditions, experiments, or measurements. In some embodiments, it may be measured by taking the ratio of (a) the area under the curve (AUC) for one recorded GIR to maintain a blood glucose concentration and (b) the AUC for another recorded GIR to maintain a different glucose concentration. Generally, the AUC for the GIR to maintain a higher blood glucose concentration is divided by the AUC for the GIR to maintain a lower blood glucose concentration. For example, if the AUC of a first GIR (providing a blood glucose concentration of 100 mg / dL) is 600 mg / kg / min and the AUC of a second GIR (providing a blood glucose concentration of 200 mg / dL) is 800 mg / kg / min, then dividing the AUC of the second GIR by the AUC of the first GIR gives a relative glucose infusion rate ratio of 1.33.
[0148] As used herein, the term “Area under curve” refers to the area bounded by a curve, an axis, and two boundary points, whether plotted or mathematically represented. In some embodiments, the curve used to calculate the Area under curve (AUC) is a measure of GIR as a function of time, with the X-axis corresponding to time and the Y-axis corresponding to GIR, and the origin at 0 on the Y-axis (i.e., the X-axis and Y-axis intersect at 0 on the Y-axis). For example, the curve may be a GIR recorded over a period of time, and the boundary points are the GIR at the start and end of injection in the experiment. The AUC is then calculated for the area between the plotted curve and the X-axis between the start boundary point and the end boundary point. Mathematically, the AUC can be calculated according to methods known to those skilled in the art, e.g., the method in Tai MM (1994) Diabetes Care, 17(2):152-154 (the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety). In some embodiments, the area under the curve (AUC) is calculated using the trapezoidal rule and applying baseline correction. In some embodiments, the AUC is calculated using GraphPad Prism v9. For baseline correction, the average GIR value from 30 minutes before injection (x=-30 min) to the time of injection (x=0) can be subtracted from each GIR value from time 0 (x=0) to the last measured point in time (x=300). The trapezoidal calculation is as follows:

[0151] As used herein, the term "EC50" refers to the maximum half-value effective concentration of a compound in a dose-response assay. EC50 is a measure of the concentration of a compound required to produce half of the maximum possible effect as a result of exposure to the compound. EC50 can be calculated using methods known in the art. In some embodiments, EC50 is given by the following formula: Y = bottom + (X^hill slope) * EC50 can be calculated using a four-parameter logistic regression curve with the formula (top-bottom) / (X^hill slope + EC50^hill slope), where Hill slope refers to the slope of the sigmoid curve between the upper and lower plateaus of the dose-response curve. In some embodiments, EC50 can be calculated using GraphPad Prism v7, 8, or 9. If a compound has its EC50 measured at two or more concentrations of sugar (e.g., glucose), then (a) the term “first sugar concentration” refers to a first, lower sugar concentration, for example, if the concentration is about 3 mM or about 5.6 mM, and (b) “second sugar concentration” refers to a second, higher sugar concentration, for example, if the concentration is about 10 mM, about 16.7 mM, about 20 mM, or about 30 mM. In some embodiments, for example, the fold change in insulin receptor phosphorylation (IR phosphorylation) activity of exemplary compounds of formula I or formula IB from low glucose concentration (e.g., about 5.6 mM) to high glucose concentration (e.g., about 16.7 mM) was evaluated by comparing the EC50 of the dose-response curves. This fold change in activity was determined by dividing the EC50 of the compound (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB) at a "low" glucose concentration (e.g., about 5.6 mM) by the EC50 of the same compound at a "high" glucose concentration (e.g., about 16.7 mM), while keeping all other conditions constant. See the example titled "In vitro demonstration of the activity of compounds of formula IB".
[0152] As used herein, the term "Kd" refers to the dissociation constant, reflecting the binding affinity between a ligand (e.g., a diboronate sensor as described herein) and its target (e.g., a sugar, e.g., glucose). For example, in the context of the diboronate sensors described herein, "glucose Kd" and "average glucose Kd" refer to the affinity of the diboronate sensor to glucose, in which case Kd is measured before the diboronate sensor is conjugated to an insulin molecule to produce the compounds described herein. The binding of the diboronate sensors described herein to glucose can be measured by an Alizarin red S (ARS) substitution assay, which is recorded before the diboronate sensor is conjugated (e.g., covalently bonded) to an insulin molecule (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB). The ARS substitution assay is known in the art, for example, in Springsteen and Wang (2001) Chem. 1608-1609, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In the ARS substitution assay, the diboronate sensor disclosed herein is incubated with ARS, and the fluorescence emission is recorded. The diboronate sensor and ARS compositions described herein are then titrated against serial dilutions of sugar (e.g., glucose), and the fluorescence emission after incubation is measured to determine the substitution of the ARS when the diboronate sensor binds to the sugar. The change in intensity (fluorescence emission with and without sugar) can be plotted against the sugar concentration to generate an association constant for sugar binding. If the diboronate sensor has a higher binding constant for the sugar, Kd increases. Furthermore, the diboronate sensors described herein include those with selective affinity / binding to sugars. For example, the diboronate sensors described herein may include sensors with increased affinity (binding ability) to glucose, but without increased affinity to other sugars such as lactate and / or fructose. See the example titled "Procedure for Measuring Glucose, Fructose, and Lactate Binding (Kd) Using an ARS Substitution Assay."
[0153] As used herein, the terms “clamp,” “clamp assay,” and “clamped” refer to the hyperglycemic / euglycemic clamp (glucose clamp), which is recognized as the “gold standard” method for detecting insulin activity via glucose utilization in experimental animals and humans. In a hyperglycemic / euglycemic clamp, in certain embodiments, plasma (blood) insulin concentration rises rapidly and is maintained by continuous insulin infusion, while plasma glucose concentration is kept constant at a predetermined hyperglycemic or euglycemic level by a variable glucose infusion rate (GIR). Once a steady-state blood glucose level is achieved, the glucose infusion rate is equal to insulin receptor-stimulated glucose uptake by all tissues in the body and is therefore a measure of insulin activity at a particular blood glucose level. For example, in some embodiments, glucose is continuously infused into the subject throughout the course of the study, and the glucose infusion rate is adjusted to maintain a constant blood glucose level in response to the administration of a compound (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB). Changes in the glucose infusion rate in response to the administration of a compound at a specific dose level or concentration are recorded and used to determine the glucose infusion rate. In some embodiments, the sugar is glucose. See, for example, Lautt WW, et al. (1998) Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology. 76 (12):1080-1086 (the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference). The clamp techniques / assays mentioned and used herein are known in the art and are modifications of disclosed techniques. See the example titled "In vivo demonstration of the activity of compounds of formula IB".
[0154] As used herein, terms such as "[bond point to]", "[bond to]", and "[covalent bond to]" indicate that the indicated atom, bond, or linkage is closer to the indicated group than other bond points or covalent bonding variables in the structural formula. In some embodiments, the bond point or covalent bond may be directly adjacent to the indicated group, and in some embodiments, other atoms or groups may be present between them.
[0155] As used herein, the term “homology percentage” refers to the percentage of sequence identity between two sequences after optimal alignment. Identical sequences have a homology percentage of 100%. Optimal alignment may be performed by homology alignment algorithms, such as those described by Pearson and Lipman’s Similarity Search Method, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:2444 (1988), or by general methods described in Neddleman and Wunsch’s Similarity Search, J. Mol. Biol. 48:443 (1970), including the execution of these algorithms or visual comparisons. As used herein, “insulin A chain” refers to the insulin chain with the highest homology percentage to the A chain of wild-type human insulin. As used herein, “insulin B chain” refers to the insulin chain with the highest homology percentage to the B chain of wild-type human insulin.
[0156] In some embodiments, the terms “covalently connected,” “covalently conjugated,” or “via covalent bonds” may be used interchangeably to indicate that two or more atoms, groups, or chemical moieties are bonded or connected via chemical bonds. In some embodiments, a chemical bond (which may be called a covalent bond in some embodiments) may be one or more shared electron pairs between two atoms, groups, or chemical moieties (e.g., in a single, double, or triple bond). In some embodiments, a chemical (covalent) bond may further include one or more atoms or functional groups, which may be referred to using the corresponding names of those functional groups in the art. For example, a covalent bond containing an -SS- group may be called a disulfide bond, a covalent bond containing an -(C=O)- group may be called a carbonyl bond, a covalent bond containing an -(CF2)- group may be called a difluoromethylene bond, and so on. The type of bond or functional group within a covalent bond is not limited unless explicitly stated, for example, if it is stated that it contains or is selected from certain groups. The preferred type or kind of covalent bond will be understood from the description and / or context.
[0157] In some embodiments, insulin receptor agonists may bind to or associate with human serum albumin (HSA) before binding to the insulin receptor. For example, an insulin receptor agonist containing any one of DSL-1 to DSL-172 may associate with or bind to HSA via hydrogen bonding, ion association, or hydrolyzable boron ester bonding. These interactions may occur along the surface of HSA, e.g., salt crosslinks to lysine residues, cleavable boron ester bonds formed by serine, threonine and / or tyrosine hydroxyl groups, and / or at specific locations on HSA, e.g., site I or site II small molecule drug binding sites, or one or more of the seven fatty acid binding sites (Yamasaki, K. et. al. (2013) Biochimica et Biophysica Acta 12:5435-5443).
[0158] In some embodiments, the side chains of amino acids may be covalently bonded (e.g., linked or crosslinked) via any number of chemical bonds (e.g., bonding sites) as commonly described in Bioconjugate Techniques (Third edition), edited by Greg T. Hermanson, Academic Press, Boston, 2013. For example, the side chains may be covalently bonded via amides, esters, ethers, thioethers, isoureas, imines, triazoles, or any suitable covalent chemistry available in the art for covalently bonding one peptide, protein, or synthetic polymer to a second peptide, protein, or synthetic polymer. The term polymer includes polypeptides. The term "covalent chemistry" may refer to one or more functional groups contained in the bonding site and / or the chemical reactions used to form the bonding site.
[0159] The term "adjacent diol" refers to a group of molecules in which two hydroxyl groups occupy adjacent positions, that is, are bonded to adjacent atoms. Such molecules may include, but are not limited to, sugars such as hexoses, glucose, mannose, and fructose.
[0160] In some embodiments, the term “albumin” means human serum albumin or a protein having at least 60% homology to human serum albumin protein. In some embodiments, it should be understood that albumin may be further chemically modified for binding purposes. In some embodiments, such modifications may include one or more covalently linked linkers. In some embodiments, the term “albumin” means human serum albumin or a protein having at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% homology percentages to human serum albumin protein. In some embodiments, the term “albumin” means human serum albumin or a protein having at least 90% homology percentages to human serum albumin protein. In some embodiments, the term “albumin” means human serum albumin or a protein having at least 95% homology percentages to human serum albumin protein. In some embodiments, the term “albumin” means human serum albumin, or a protein having at least 99% homology to human serum albumin protein. In some embodiments, albumin is unmodified human serum albumin.
[0161] The term “treatment” means both the prevention and minimization of the disease, disorder, or condition mentioned (i.e., “treatment” means both the prophylactic and therapeutic administration of the compounds of the Disclosure or compositions containing the compounds of the Disclosure, unless otherwise indicated or unless the context clearly contradicts it). The route of administration may be any route that effectively delivers the compounds of the Disclosure to a desired or appropriate location in the body, such as parenteral, e.g., subcutaneous, intramuscular, oral, or intravenous. In the case of parenteral administration, the compounds of the Disclosure are formulated in the same manner as known insulin preparations. Furthermore, in the case of parenteral administration, the compounds of the Disclosure are administered in the same manner as known insulin administrations, and physicians are familiar with this procedure. The amount of the compounds of the Disclosure to be administered, the frequency of administration of the compounds of the Disclosure, and the selection of one or more compounds of the Disclosure to be administered optionally together with another antidiabetic compound should be determined in consultation with a practicing physician familiar with the treatment of the condition being treated (e.g., diabetes).
[0162] In some embodiments, “therapeutic composition” and “pharmaceutical composition” as used herein mean compositions intended to have therapeutic effects, such as pharmaceutical compositions, genetic material, biologics, and other substances. Pharmaceutical compositions can be configured to function in the body with therapeutic quality. Concentrations may be changed, for example, to reduce the frequency of supplementation. In some embodiments, “therapeutic effective dose” and “preventive effective dose” refer to amounts that provide therapeutic benefit in the treatment, prevention, or management of a disease or its apparent symptoms. A therapeutic effective dose may treat a disease or condition, symptoms of a disease, or predisposition to a disease for the purpose of treating, curing, reducing, alleviating, modifying, correcting, improving, or influencing the disease, symptoms of a disease, or predisposition to a disease. A therapeutically effective set or specific amount can be readily determined by a typical healthcare professional and may vary depending on factors known in the art, such as the type of disease, the patient’s medical history and age, the stage of the disease, and the administration of other therapeutic agents. In some embodiments, the modified insulin described herein may be delivered to the body by injection or inhalation or by other routes and may reversibly bind to soluble glucose in a non-depot form. In some embodiments, the modified insulin described herein is released over a long period of time from a local depot in the body or from a form bound to a serum protein such as albumin. In some embodiments, the release of modified insulin is accelerated as glucose levels rise, and such release rates may depend on blood glucose levels or levels of other small molecules in the blood, including diol-containing molecules. In some embodiments, the release, bioavailability, and / or solubility of the modified insulin described herein are controlled as a function of blood or serum glucose concentration or the concentration of other small molecules in the body.
[0163] Unless otherwise specified, the structures described herein also mean that they may contain different compounds by the presence of only one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, deuterium ( 2 H) or tritium ( 3 Replacement of hydrogen by H), or 13 C- or 14Compounds having the current structure, except for carbon substitution by a 1C carbon atom, are within the scope of this disclosure. Such compounds may be useful, for example, as analytical tools, probes in biological assays, or therapeutic agents.
[0164] In some embodiments, functional groups can be covalently bonded or linked via any suitable covalent chemistry (linker) that can be used to covalently bond one functional group or amino acid side chain to another functional group, non-limiting examples of which include amides, esters, ethers, thioethers, isoureas, imines, and triazole linkers. In some embodiments, functional groups are covalently bonded by click chemistry reactions as defined in the art. These include, but are not limited to, cycloaddition reactions, 3+2 cycloaddition, strain-enhanced alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition, strain alkenes, alkenes, and tetrazine reverse demand Diels-Alder reactions, copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), thiol-maleimide addition, strain-enhanced azide-alkyne cycloaddition, Staudinger ligation, nucleophilic ring-opening reactions, and addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds. Some of these reactions are described, for example, by H. Kolb, M. Finn and K. Sharpless (2001); Click Chemistry: Diverse Chemical Function from a Few Good Reactions, Angewandte Chemie International Edition 40(11):2004-2021; Kolb and Sharpless, Drug Discovery Today 8:1128-1137, 2003; Huisgen, R. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1963, 2, 565; Agard, N.J.; Baskin, J.M.; Prescher, JA; Lo, A.; Bertozzi, CRACS Chem. Biol. 2006, 1, 644. Those skilled in the art can select buffers, pH, and reaction conditions suitable for such click reactions. In some embodiments, covalent bonding is the result of a “biorthogonal reaction” as defined in the art.Such reactions are described, for example, by Sletten, Ellen M.; Bertozzi, Carolyn R. (2009). Bioorthogonal Chemistry: Fishing for Selectivity in a Sea of Functionality, Angewandte Chemie International Edition 48(38):6974-98.; Presser, Jennifer A; Bertozzi, Carolyn R (2005). Chemistry in living systems, Nature Chemical Biology 1(1):13-21.
[0165] In some embodiments, functional groups may be bonded using natural chemical ligation, for example, as described by Dawson, PE; Muir, TW; Clark-Lewis, I.; Kent, SB (1994) Synthesis of proteins by native chemical ligation, Science 266(5186):776-778. Where used herein, terms such as “linking” and “covalent bond” may, in some embodiments, refer to any of the chemistry described above. The terms “amine,” “amino group,” and / or “amine group” may be used interchangeably to indicate the amino group or amine group to which the described element is covalently bonded when used to describe a covalent bond or part of the connectivity. In some embodiments, the amino group or amine group may be a primary amine, a secondary amine, or
[0166]
number
[0167] In some embodiments, the amino or amine group may be an NH2 group at the N-terminus of a peptide or peptide chain, or an NH2 group on a lysine side chain, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the linkage of a first group to a second group is described by reference to an amine or amino group derived from the second group, which is part of the covalent bond between the first and second groups. For example, an amine on a lysine side chain on X1 may be referred to as an amine, and may further be described as being conjugated via an amide bond to specify the structure and linkage of the functional group constituting the covalent bond. When the covalent bond is via an amine bond or amine linkage, it is referred to as an amine linkage. It should be understood that a carbonyl group linked to an amine (e.g., a (C=O)-NH moiety) constitutes an amide bond, and therefore, by definition, an amine bond is not directly linked to a carbonyl group. In other words, the terms “amide bond” and / or “amide linkage” can be used interchangeably to indicate a carbonyl (e.g., (C=O)-NH moiety) connected to an amine when used to describe a covalent bond or connectivity.
[0168] In some embodiments, further modifications include the addition of chemical entities (e.g., partial or functional groups) such as carbohydrate groups, one or more cis-diol-containing groups, one or more phosphate groups, one or more catechol groups, farnesyl groups, isofarnesyl groups, fatty acid groups, or linker linking for conjugation, functionalization, or other modifications intended to affect the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and / or biophysical solution properties of insulin.

In some embodiments, X1 in formula I is NH2. In some embodiments, the compound, such as the compound of formula I, comprises human insulin or a human insulin analog. In some embodiments, two different amine groups in insulin are covalently bonded as described by formula I or formula IB.
[0170] It will be understood that “human peptide hormone,” “human pancreatic polypeptide hormone,” “insulin,” “human insulin,” “modified insulin,” and “human insulin analog” may be used interchangeably in some of the embodiments described. That is, for example, in a particular embodiment, “human insulin analog” may be used instead in embodiments described as using human insulin. In some embodiments, a compound such as the compound of formula I comprises human insulin or a human insulin analog. In some embodiments, the compound comprises human insulin or a human insulin analog as described by formula I or formula IB for p'=1, and a single amino group in insulin is conjugated as described by formula I or formula IB. In some embodiments, the amino group is the N-terminus of the B chain of insulin or the amino group of the lysine side chain. In some embodiments, two different amine groups in insulin are each independently covalently bonded as described by formula I or formula IB. In some embodiments, at least one amine group is the N-terminus of the B chain of insulin. In some embodiments, the amino group comprises the amino group of the lysine residue side chain of insulin.

[0174] The terms analog and analogue are alternative notations of the same word and are used interchangeably herein and have the same meaning. In the context of human hormones, endocrine hormones, insulin, human insulin, glucagon, amylin, relaxin, GLP-1, oxytomodulin, somatostatin, gastric inhibitory polypeptides, glucose-dependent insulin-secreting polypeptides, and hybrid peptides comprising sequences derived from two or more human polypeptide hormones, an analog means any related sequence resulting from a parent sequence, including up to eight amino acid mutations, deletions or insertions and / or additional chemical modifications.

[0176] In some embodiments, the C-terminus of the B-chain of insulin is covalently bonded to the N-terminus of the A-chain in the insulin analog. In some embodiments, the C-terminus of the B-chain of insulin is covalently bonded to the N-terminus of the A-chain, and the binding peptide is a C-peptide, further comprising any intermediate compound containing a conjugate of formula I or formula IB.
[0177] In some embodiments, the insulin analog includes insulin lispro, or glargine-type modifications, or any suitable modifications to human insulin that affect the pharmacokinetics or half-life of insulin in the body (e.g., blood). In some embodiments, the insulin repro used to prepare the PEGylated insulin repro compounds of this disclosure may be prepared by any of a variety of recognized peptide synthesis techniques, including solution-phase, solid-phase, semi-synthetic, and recombinant DNA methods. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,700,662 (Chance, et al.) and European Patent No. 214,826 (Brange, et al.) disclose the preparation of various insulin analogs. The A and B chains of insulin lispro can also be prepared via proinsulin-like precursor molecules using recombinant DNA technology. In some embodiments, a proinsulin-like precursor is used to prepare the insulin lispro used to prepare the PEGylated insulin lispro compounds of this disclosure.
[0178] In some embodiments, the insulin portion of the compounds of the present invention may be prepared by the production of precursor protein molecules using recombinant DNA technology. The DNA, including cDNA and synthetic DNA, may be double-stranded or single-stranded. The coding sequences encoding the precursor protein molecules described herein may be altered as a result of genetic coding duplication or degeneracy. To produce the precursor proteins of this disclosure, DNA can be introduced into host cells. Suitable host cells are transiently or stably transfected or transformed in an expression system for producing the precursor proteins. Host cells may be bacterial cells such as strains K12 or B of Escherichia coli, fungal cells such as yeast cells, or mammalian cells such as Chinese hamster ovary ("CHO") cells. Expression vectors are typically replicable in the host organism, either as episomes or as an integrated portion of host chromosomal DNA. Generally, expression vectors include selection markers, e.g., tetracycline, neomycin, and dihydrofolate reductase, to allow selection of those cells transformed with the desired DNA sequence.
[0179] In some embodiments, the polypeptide hormone is glucagon. In some embodiments, glucagon has additional mutations and modifications known to affect the solubility and solution stability of glucagon. In some embodiments, the compound, for example, the compound of formula I or formula IB, comprises a conjugation of a diboronate, diol-containing moiety, or polyol to the N-terminus of the B chain of insulin via a peptide bond, and at least one additional conjugation to insulin as described by formula I or formula I.

[0181] In some embodiments, the term “glucose responsiveness” refers to the change in activity in the presence and absence of glucose, or in the difference between low and high levels of glucose (e.g., 5.6 mM glucose vs. 16.7 mM glucose, 3 mM glucose vs. 20 mM glucose). In some embodiments, the activity of conjugate insulin is evaluated by the concentration of insulin (in nanomolar units (nM) of insulin) required to induce a semi-maximal response (EC50) in a cell-based assay. Conjugate insulin at low EC50 concentrations is more active than insulin at higher EC50 concentrations (e.g., insulin with an EC50 of 3 nM is more active than insulin with an EC50 of 50 nM). “Glucose response” is observed when insulin changes from a lower EC50 (higher nM) to a higher EC50 (lower nM), respectively, in the presence and absence of glucose, or in the difference between lower and higher levels of glucose.
[0182] In some embodiments, the compound of formula I or formula IB comprises one or more L- or D-artificial amino acids that are not one of the 20 natural amino acids. In some embodiments, the side chains of such artificial amino acids can be covalently bonded by several reactions, including bioorthogonal reactions, as described, for example, by Rostovtsev, VV, Green, LG, Fokin, VV & Sharpless, KBA: stepwise huisgen cycloaddition process: copper(I)-catalyzed regioselective "ligation" of azides and terminal alkynes. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 41, 2596-2599 (2002), or by: Liang, Y., Mackey, JL, Lopez, SA, Liu, F. & Houk, KN: Control and design of mutual orthogonality in bioorthogonal cycloadditions. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 134, 17904-17907 (2012). In some embodiments, the compound of formula I or formula IB may contain one or more L- or D-artificial amino acids that are not one of the 20 natural amino acids. In some embodiments, Z1a contains one or more L- or D-artificial amino acids that are not one of the 20 natural amino acids. In some embodiments, the side chains of two amino acids in formula I or formula IB may be covalently bonded together via a triazole bond.
[0183] Insulin is an important regulator of blood glucose (sugar) levels. In healthy individuals, insulin is present and, when released from the pancreas, acts to lower blood glucose levels by, for example, binding to and activating insulin receptors, thereby inducing glucose absorption by liver, fat, and skeletal muscle cells. Diabetes mellitus (DM), commonly referred to as diabetes, is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by persistently high blood glucose levels over a long period.
[0184] As used herein, “insulin” encompasses both wild-type and modified forms of insulin that can bind to and be activated by insulin receptors or that can cause a measurable decrease in blood glucose when administered in vivo, and also encompasses both wild-type and modified forms of human insulin that can bind to and be activated by human insulin receptors or that can cause a measurable decrease in blood glucose when administered in vivo to humans.
[0185] In some embodiments, insulin includes insulin of any species, whether in purified, synthetic, or recombinant form, and includes human insulin, porcine insulin, bovine insulin, sheep insulin, and rabbit insulin. In some embodiments, insulin has two chains, a B chain and an A chain. In some embodiments, the chains are linked together via a peptide, such as a c-peptide known in the art, or a shortened version thereof, and in other embodiments, insulin may be provided as proinsulin (insulin precursor) which can be further processed into mature insulin. Various modified forms of insulin are known in the art and can be chemically modified, such as by the addition of chemical moieties such as PEG groups or fatty acyl chains. Modified insulin may be mutated, including by the addition, deletion, or substitution of amino acids. In some embodiments, the term "desB30" refers to insulin lacking the B30 amino acid residue.
[0186] As used herein, the term “insulin analog” means modified human insulin having insulin receptor agonist activity, wherein 1 to 10 amino acid residues are modified compared to human insulin (e.g., substitution, deletion, addition (i.e., elongation), insertion, and any combination thereof). In this context, the insertion or addition of one or more amino acids is considered a single modification. For example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 9 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 8 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 7 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 6 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 5 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 4 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 3 modified amino acid residues. As yet another example, an insulin analog may have 1 to 2 modified amino acid residues. In some embodiments, the insulin analog may have 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 modified amino acid residues.
[0187] Modifications in the insulin molecule are indicated by the chain (A or B), position, and the one- or three-letter code of the amino acid residue substituting the native amino acid residue. In this specification, terms such as "A1," "A2," and "A3" refer to the amino acids at positions 1, 2, and 3 of the A chain (counting from the N-terminus), respectively. Similarly, terms such as "B1," "B2," and "B3" refer to the amino acids at positions 1, 2, and 3 of the B chain (counting from the N-terminus), respectively. Using one-letter amino acid codes, terms such as A21A, A21G, and A21Q indicate that the amino acid at position A21 is A, G, and Q, respectively. Using three-letter amino acid codes, the corresponding expressions are A21Ala, A21Gly, and A21Gln, respectively.
[0188] Therefore, for example, an insulin analog having four modifications comprises an A chain and a B chain, the A chain containing the sequence GIVEQCCTSICSLYQLENYCN (SEQ ID NO: 1), the B chain containing the sequence GKGSHKFVNQHLCGSHLVEALYLVCGKRGFFYTPR (SEQ ID NO: 25228), the A chain having the wild-type sequence of human insulin's A chain (e.g., no mutations, deletions, or additions), the B chain being extended at the N-terminus with GKGSHK (i.e., 6 amino acids added / appended to the N-terminus), the amino acid at position 21 of the B chain (i.e., E) being substituted with K, the amino acid at position 29 of the B chain (i.e., K) being substituted with R, and the amino acid at position 30 of the B chain (i.e., Thr) being deleted (as shown below).

[0203] [ka]
[0204] In some embodiments, insulin analogs include, but are not limited to, insulin that has been chemically modified compared to wild-type human insulin, such as by the addition of a chemical moiety, such as a PEG group or a fatty acyl chain. In some embodiments, the modified insulin / insulin analog / analog used interchangeably herein may have mutations including the addition, deletion, or substitution of amino acids. Different protomers of insulin may arise from these changes and be incorporated into some embodiments. In some embodiments, the active form of insulin has fewer than 11 such modifications (e.g., 1-4, 1-3, 1-9, 1-8, 1-7, 1-6, 2-6, 2-5, 2-4, 1-5, 1-2, 2-9, 2-8, 2-7, 2-3, 3-9, 3-8, 3-7, 3-6, 3-5, 3-4, 4-9, 4-8, 4-7, 4-6, 4-5, 5-9, 5-8, 5-7, 5-6, 6-9, 6-8, 6-7, 7-9, 7-8, 8-9, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1). As used herein, the wild-type sequence of human insulin (chains A and B) has a chain A having the amino acid sequence GIVEQCCTSICSLYQLENYCN (SEQ ID NO: 1) and a chain B having the amino acid sequence FVNQHLCGSHLVEALYLVCGERGFFYTPKT (SEQ ID NO: 2).

[0205] Human insulin differs from rabbit, pig, bovine, and sheep insulin at amino acids A8, A9, A10, and B30, respectively, as follows: Human: Thr, Ser, Ile, Thr; Rabbit: Thr, Ser, Ile, Ser; Pig: Thr, Ser, Ile, Ala; Sheep: Ala, Gly, Val, Ala; Bovine: Ala, Ser, Val, Ala. In some embodiments, modified insulin may be mutated at positions B1, B2, B28, or B29 of the B chain, or at positions B28 and B29. In some embodiments, modified insulin may be mutated at positions A1, A2, A21, or other positions of the A chain. For example, insulin lispro is a rapid-acting modified insulin in which the lysine and proline residues at the C-terminus of the B chain are reversed. Insulin aspart is a rapid-acting modified insulin in which proline is substituted with aspartic acid at position B28. In some embodiments of this disclosure, insulin mutated at B28 and B29 may further include additional mutations. For example, insulin glulysine is a rapid-acting modified insulin in which aspartic acid is replaced by a lysine residue at position B3 and lysine is replaced by a glutamic acid residue at position B29. In some embodiments, a long-acting, highly stable insulin analog is covalently modified as described by formula I or formula IB and may include mutations such as replacement of tyrosine at A14 with glutamic acid, replacement of tyrosine at B16 with histidine, and replacement of phenylalanine at B25 with histidine.
[0206] In some embodiments, the isoelectric point of the insulin herein may be shifted relative to wild-type human insulin by any preferred method, for example, by the addition or substitution of a preferred amino acid. In some embodiments, the isoelectric point of modified insulin may be modulated by glucose (for example, by interaction with glucose). For example, insulin glargine is basal insulin in which two arginine residues are added to the C-terminus of the B peptide and A21 is replaced by glycine. In some embodiments, insulin may not have one or more of the residues B1, B2, B3, B26, B27, B28, B29, and B30 (for example, insulin may be a deletion mutant in one or more of the listed residues). In some embodiments, the insulin molecule contains up to five additional amino acid residues on the N-terminus or C-terminus of the A or B chain. In some embodiments, one or more amino acid residues are located at or missing from positions A1, A21, B1, B29, B30, and / or B31. In some embodiments, the insulin molecule of the present disclosure is mutated such that one or more amino acids are replaced in an acidic form. In some embodiments, asparagine is replaced with aspartic acid or glutamic acid. In some embodiments, glutamine is replaced with aspartic acid or glutamic acid. In some embodiments, A21 may be aspartic acid, B3 may be aspartic acid, or both positions may contain aspartic acid. Those skilled in the art will recognize that any previously reported or widely accepted mutation or modification is possible to insulin that retains biological activity, and that such insulin analogs may be used in embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, insulin may be bound to a fatty acid at any position, or may be acylated with a fatty acid at any amino group, including one on the lysine side chain and an alpha-amino group at the N-terminus of insulin, and the fatty acid may include a C8, C9, C10, C11, C12, C14, C15, C16, C17, or C18 chain. In some embodiments, the fatty acid chain has a carbon length of 8 to 20 carbon atoms.In some embodiments, insulin detemir has myristic acid covalently bonded to lysine at B29, with B30 being deleted or absent. In some embodiments, the B28 position of the insulin molecule is lysine, and the epsilon (ε)-amino group of this lysine is conjugated to a fatty acid.
[0207] In some embodiments, the N-terminus or C-terminus of the modified insulin A-chain or B-chain is ligated using a peptide ligase. In some embodiments, the polypeptide is attached to the C-terminus or N-terminus of the insulin A and / or B-chain using a protein ligase, and in some embodiments, the ligase is selected from saltase, buterase, tripsiligase, subtilisin, peptiligases, or enzymes having at least 75% homology to these ligases. In some embodiments, ligation is achieved by expressed protein ligation as described in Muir TW, Sondhi D, Cole PA. "Expressed protein ligation: a general method for protein engineering." Proc Natl Acad Sci US A. 1998;95(12):6705-6710. In some embodiments, the polypeptide is ligated to modified insulin using Staudinger ligation, for example, as described in Nilsson, BL; Kiessling, LL., Raines, RT (2000). "Staudinger ligation: A peptide from a thioester and azide." Org. Lett. 2 (13): 1939-1941. In some embodiments, the polypeptide is conjugated to modified insulin using Ser / Thr, for example, as described in Zhang Y, Xu C, Kam HY, Lee CL, Li X. 2013. "Protein chemical synthesis by serine / threonine ligation." Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 17: 6657-6662. In some embodiments, the B chain itself has fewer than 32 amino acids or 34 amino acids, and in some embodiments, insulin has 4 disulfide bonds instead of 3. Disulfide bonds are present in the A and B chains of insulin.For example, a disulfide bond exists between the cysteine at position 6 of SEQ ID NO: 1 and the cysteine at position 11 of SEQ ID NO: 1, a disulfide bond exists between the cysteine at position 7 of SEQ ID NO: 1 and the cysteine at position 7 of SEQ ID NO: 2, and a disulfide bond exists between the cysteine at position 20 of SEQ ID NO: 1 and the cysteine at position 19 of SEQ ID NO: 2.

[0210] In some embodiments, insulin may be conjugated via reactive moieties that are naturally present in the insulin structure and / or added before binding, including, for example, carboxyl or reactive esters, amines, hydroxyls, aldehydes, sulfhydryls, maleimidyls, alkynyls, and azides. Insulin naturally contains reactive alpha-terminal amines and epsilon-aminelysine groups that can covalently bond NHS-esters, isocyanates, or isothiocyanates. In some embodiments, modified insulin may be used in which a suitable amino acid (e.g., lysine or a non-natural amino acid) is added or substituted into the amino acid sequence to provide alternative conjugation sites in addition to the modified amino acids of the embodiments described herein. In some embodiments, the binding process may be controlled by selectively blocking a particular reactive moiety that is present before binding. In some embodiments, insulin may include any combination of modifications, and this disclosure also includes modified forms of non-human insulin (e.g., porcine insulin, bovine insulin, rabbit insulin, sheep insulin, etc.) that include any one of the modifications described herein. Some embodiments use these and other previously described modified insulins, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,474,978; No. 5,461,031, No. 4,421,685, No. 7,387,996, No. 6,869,930, No. 6,174,856, No. 6,011,007, No. 5,866,538, No. 5,750,4976, No. 906,028, No. 6,551,992, No. 6,465,426, No. 6,444,641, No. 6,335,316, No. 6 It is understood that this includes those described in U.S. Patent Publication No. 268,335, No. 6,051,551, No. 6,034,054, No. 5,952,297, No. 5,922,675, No. 5,747,642, No. 5,693,609, No. 5,650,486, No. 5,547,929, No. 5,504,188, and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2015 / 0353619, and includes non-natural amino acids described or referenced herein, and includes such modifications to non-human insulin described herein.It should also be understood that in some embodiments, insulin may be covalently bound to a polyethylene glycol polymer, such as a polyethylene glycol polymer with a Mn of 60,000 or less, or to albumin via either permanent or reversible binding.
[0211] In some embodiments, a compound of the present disclosure (e.g., formula I or formula IB) is conjugated to a chelating agent, and in some embodiments, the chelating agent can be used to capture a radioactive payload such as gallium-68, copper-64, lutetium-177, or actinium-225. In some embodiments, the chelating agent is based on DOTA, NOTA, TETA, or 4-arm DOTA, and in some embodiments, the chelating agent can be linked to a peptide using a PEG linker via an amide bond between the chelating agent and the peptide.
[0212] In some embodiments, the activity, bioavailability, solubility, isoelectric point, charge, and / or hydrophobicity of modified insulin can be controlled by chemical modification and / or as a result of interactions of small molecules, such as sugars, with compounds that are either covalently bonded to or mixed with insulin, such as compounds described herein.
[0213] In some embodiments, for example, in formulas FF1-FF11, FF12, FF12A, FF12B, FF12C, FF12D, FF13-FF115, FF116, FF116A, FF116B, FF116C, FF116D, and FF117-FF231, one or more elements, functional groups, or atoms may be specifically omitted or excluded from the described structure (for example, terminal functional groups may be replaced by hydrogen atoms, or linking groups may be replaced by bonds), and it will be understood that such omitted or excluded elements make these groups (structures) distinct and not equivalent. For example, if another version (variation) of the formula structure does not have a nitro group at R1 of B1 or B2, that variation is not equivalent to the structure containing the nitro group (for example, not structurally and chemically equivalent), at least because the nitro group alters the pKa of B1 and B2 under physiological conditions and therefore alters the overall affinity of Z1c to glucose.
[0214] A rotationally constrained tethered boron conjugate. In some embodiments, the aromatic boron-containing compound and / or aromatic boron-containing group is a rotationally constrained tethered boron conjugate. In some embodiments, the rotationally constrained tethered boron conjugates presented herein contain a skeleton whose rotation is inhibited by undesirable steric interactions (e.g., gauche-anti interactions of substituents), bound rotation due to bond hybridization (e.g., cis-to-trans-amide rotation), or via a rigid covalent bond (e.g., (E)-to-(Z) configuration of the alkene moiety). For example, formulas FF50-FF62, FF116, FF116A, FF116B, FF116C, FF116D, and FF121-134 contain a geminal (e.g., bonded to the same atom) alkyl functional group relative to the amine group covalently bonded to the boronic acid functionalized moiety. The alkyl functional group may restrict the accessible dihedral angle and the freedom of rotation around the CC or CX bond (commonly referred to as the χ (chi) dihedral angle of the amino acid). For example, the hydroxyl side chains of serine residues can access dihedral angles of 60°, 180°, or 240°(-60°) with nearly equal distributions, while the hydroxyl side chains of threonine can only adopt dihedral angles of 180° or 240°(-60°). The presence of a geminal methyl group on the hydroxyl of threonine provides steric bulk, which can create undesirable interactions if other bulky substituents are in a gauche conformation relative to the methyl group. Formulas FF50-FF62, FF116, FF116A, FF116B, FF116C, and FF116D, and FF121-134 contain geminal alkyl substituents that may limit the accessible dihedral angles adopted by boron conjugate amines, influencing the adopted dihedral angles, bringing the boron functional groups closer together, and enabling increased binding of the conjugate to target molecules such as proteins or sugars.
[0215] In some embodiments, the insulin receptor agonists disclosed herein may have an onset of action within 1 to 2 hours or longer. In certain embodiments, the insulin receptor agonists may have a peak efficacy within 6 to 20 hours or a long-lasting effect. In some embodiments, the insulin receptor agonists may be administered once daily or, for example, once weekly.
[0216] In some embodiments, insulin receptor agonists have an extended duration of bioavailability (e.g., an extended in vivo plasma half-life). In some embodiments, the insulin receptor agonists disclosed herein comprise one or more linker moieties (e.g., one or more Z1b) and / or diboronates (e.g., F7) that result in an increased terminal phase half-life and / or decreased blood clearance (CL) of the compounds disclosed herein in the blood. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein have a terminal phase half-life of at least 1 hour, at least 1.5 hours, at least 2 hours, at least 2.5 hours, at least 3 hours, at least 3.5 hours, at least 4 hours, at least 4.5 hours, or at least 5 hours. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein have a half-life of up to 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, or 5 hours. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein have CL values in the range of about 0.13 ml / min / kg to about 2.4 ml / min / kg.
[0217] In some embodiments, the linker is C2-C, optionally terminated with an acid group selected from A'' (e.g., AB-1-AB-39). 20 It contains an acyl group. In some embodiments, the linker contains a lipophilic side chain selected from A'' (e.g., AB1-AB7, AB15-AB28, AB-32).
[0218] In some embodiments, the compound is optionally terminated with an acid group C2-C 20The compound comprises one or more linkers containing an acyl group. In some embodiments, the compound comprises one or more Z1c containing at least one F7. In further embodiments, the compound has a long terminal phase half-life and / or reduced clearance.
[0219] In some embodiments, the stereochemistry of the isomer structure (e.g., the stereochemistry of the compound, (e.g., within the Z1c moiety)) can selectively increase the affinity of the conjugate (e.g., the Z1c moiety) to a specific target diol such as glucose. For example, in some embodiments, one or more stereoisomers of Z1c (e.g., cis or trans, (R) or (S), and (E) or (Z)) can be selected to increase or decrease the affinity of Z1c (and the entire molecular structure or conjugate) to glucose. In some embodiments, the cis forms of formulas FF1-FF231 (e.g., FF12, FF12B, FF12C, FF12D, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF116A, FF116B, FF116C, FF116D, FF117, FF193, and FF203) are used where applicable (e.g., Z1c has cis stereochemistry). In some embodiments, the trans forms of formulas FF1-FF231 (e.g., FF12, FF12B, FF12C, FF12D, FF115, FF116, FF116A, FF116B, FF116C, FF116D, FF117, FF193, and FF203) are used where applicable, for example, when those formulas include two stereocenters linked by a bond (e.g., Z1c has trans stereochemistry). In some embodiments, the R form of formulas FF1 to FF231 (e.g., FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203) is used where applicable, for example, when formulas FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203 contain at least one stereocenter (e.g., Z1c contains a structure having R stereochemistry). In some embodiments, the S form of formulas FF1 to FF231 (e.g., FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203) is used where applicable, for example, when formulas FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203 contain at least one stereocenter (e.g., Z1c contains a structure having S stereochemistry).In some embodiments, the S,S form of formulas FF1 to FF231 (e.g., FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203) is used where applicable, for example, when formulas FF12, FF114, FF115, FF116, FF117, FF193, and FF203 contain two stereocenters linked by a bond (e.g., Z1c contains a structure having S,S stereochemistry).

[0223] In some embodiments, the specific orientation of amino acids is understood to be achieved, for example, using the method described in Albericio, F. (2000). Solid-Phase Synthesis: A Practical Guide (1st ed.). Boca Raton: CRC Press. p. 848. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure, for example, compounds of formula I, formula IB, or formula IF, can be bound to diols, catechols, hexose sugars, glucose, xylose, fucose, galactosamine, glucosamine, mannosamine, galactose, mannose, fructose, galacturonic acid, glucuronic acid, iduronic acid, mannuronic acid, acetylgalactosamine, acetylglucosamine, acetylmannosamine, acetylmuramic acid, 2-keto-3-deoxy-glycero-galactonononic acid, acetylneuraminic acid, glycolylneuraminic acid, neurotransmitters, dopamine, or disaccharides, or polymers of sugars or diols.
[0224] In some embodiments, the modification or intermediate may involve using an N-methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) group to produce a MIDA-conjugated boronate or MIDA boronate, and such modification may be used during the preparation of the boronate toward the final structure of use (for example, in embodiments of the method for preparing the conjugate described herein). In some embodiments, pinacol boronic acid ester is used toward the final structure, and the pinacol group can be readily removed by those skilled in the art using standard techniques. The MIDA-protected boronic acid ester is readily handled, stable in air, chromatographically compatible, nonreactive under standard anhydrous cross-coupling conditions, and under mild aqueous basic conditions such as 1 M NaOH, or even NaHCO3, or Lee, S.Jet al. (2008). J.Am.Chem.Soc.130:466.
[0225] The biological mechanism by which wild-type insulin binds to the insulin receptor has been previously reported in Menting, J. Get al. (2013). Nature 493, 241-245; and Menting, J. Get al. (2014). "Protective hinge in insulin opens to enable its receptor engagement." Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 111, E3395-3404. The activity of such insulin is, for example, TyrA14- 125I. Measurement can be performed using any preferred technique by using an in vitro insulin receptor that binds to human insulin as a tracer and utilizing antibody-conjugated beads with an insulin receptor monoclonal antibody. In some embodiments, animal models can be used for in vivo evaluation of insulin activity during glucose administration using methods known to those skilled in the art. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein are partially or completely expressed with the recombinant protein of interest, such as insulin. The process for insulin expression in E. coli is known and can be easily carried out by those skilled in the art using the procedures outlined, for example, in Jonasson (1996). Eur. J. Biochem. 236:656-661; Cowley (1997). FEBS Lett. 402:124:130; Cho (2001). Biotechnol. Bioprocess Eng 6:144-149; Tikhonov (2001). Protein Exp. Pur. 21:176-182; Malik (2007). Protein Exp. Pur. 55:100-111; and Min (2011). J. Biotech. 151:350-356. In the most common process, the protein is expressed as a splitting protein or a single-chain proinsulin construct with an affinity tag. The compound (e.g., compound of formula I or formula IB) can be expressed as part of proinsulin and then chemically modified to conjugate to the desired structure via an amide bond. This approach provides good yields, reduces experimental complexity by decreasing the number of processing steps, and allows refolding in innate insulin (see, for example, Jonasson, Eur. J. Biochem. 236:656-661 (1996); Cho, Biotechnol Bioprocess Eng. 6:144-149 (2001); Tikhonov, Honov Protein Exp. Pur. 21:176-182 (2001); Min, J. Biotech. 151:350-356 (2001)). When expressed in E. coli, proinsulin is usually found in inclusion bodies and can be readily purified by those skilled in the art.
[0226] In some embodiments, proinsulin can be expressed using standard IPTG (isopropylthio-β-galactoside) induction of IPTG-inducible expression constructs and vectors in e coli strains such as strain B21. For example, the expression construct consists of a B chain, a C peptide, and an A chain. For instance, the c-peptide sequence EAEDLQVGQVELGGGPGAGSLQPLALEGSLQR can be used for proinsulin expression. Proinsulin is expressed in an inclusion body (IB), which is captured, washed, and further purified via an existing his tag, for example, before sensor conjugation. The expression of the desired proinsulin can be achieved by procedures known in the art. See, for example, U.S. Patents 5,457,066, 5,700,662, 5,514,646, 9,050,371, and 1,040,000,21.
[0227] In some embodiments, the compounds of this disclosure (e.g., formulas I, IB, and IF) can be formulated for injection. For example, they can be formulated for injection into subjects such as humans. In some embodiments, the composition may be a pharmaceutical composition such as a sterile injectable pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, the composition may be formulated for subcutaneous injection. In some embodiments, the composition may be formulated for transdermal, intradermal, transmucosal, transnasal, inhalation, or intramuscular administration. In some embodiments, the composition may be formulated in an oral or pulmonary administration form. Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for injection may include, for example, a sterile aqueous solution containing sugars, polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, phenol, metacresol, and sodium chloride; dispersions may be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycol, and mixtures thereof, and in oil; and carriers may be, for example, a solvent or dispersion medium containing water, sugars, ethanol, polyols (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, etc.), and suitable mixtures thereof. Those skilled in the art will recognize that specific formulations can be developed to best suit the application and use of the molecular structures of this disclosure. General considerations regarding the formulation and manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions, routes of administration, and suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be found, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 19th ed., Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1995. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may contain, if the compound (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB) contains insulin, zinc together with insulin, for example, Zn 2+It may include. Such zinc preparations are described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 9,034,818. For example, a pharmaceutical composition may contain zinc in a molar ratio of about M:N to modified insulin, where M is 1 to 11 and N is 6 to 1. In some embodiments, such modified insulin may be stored in a pump, which is either outside or inside the body, and releases the modified insulin. In some embodiments, the pump may be used to release a fixed amount of modified insulin, which is glucose-responsive and can automatically adjust its activity based on the level of glucose in the blood and / or the rate of release from the injection site. In some embodiments, the composition may be formulated in dose unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may further include a second insulin type that provides rapid-acting or basal insulin in addition to the effect provided by the molecular structure. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure (e.g., compounds of formula I or formula IB) are injected separately from insulin but modulate the activity of insulin by binding to insulin, and in some embodiments, this change in activity is glucose-dependent.
[0228] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises one or more compounds disclosed herein and at least one additional component selected from pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles, and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a compound of formula I or formula IB and at least one additional component selected from pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles, and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
[0229] In some embodiments, the disclosure includes compounds that may form part of a kit, which may include a compound of formula I or formula IB containing modified insulin, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and may include a syringe or pen for injection. In some embodiments, the kit may include a syringe or pen pre-filled with a pharmaceutically acceptable composition containing a compound of formula I or formula IB together with a liquid carrier. Alternatively, the kit may include a separate container, such as a vial, containing a pharmaceutically acceptable composition containing a compound of formula I or formula IB together with a dry carrier, and an empty syringe or pen. In some embodiments, such a kit may include a separate container having a liquid carrier that can be used to reconstitute a given composition that can then be taken up by the syringe or pen. In some embodiments, the kit may include instructions. In some embodiments, the kit may include a blood glucose measuring device for calculating an appropriate dose of modified insulin to be injected at a given time or at regular intervals, either locally or remotely. Such a dosing regimen may be patient-specific and may be provided, for example, as instructions for programming a pump, either by a human or a computer. The kit may include an electronic device that transfers blood glucose measurements to a second computer, either locally or elsewhere (e.g., in the cloud), which then calculates the correct amount of a compound of formula I or formula IB containing modified insulin that needs to be used by the patient at a specific time.
[0230] In some embodiments, this disclosure relates to a method for treating a disease or condition of interest, comprising administering a composition comprising the compounds described herein to the subject. In some embodiments, the disease or condition may be hyperglycemia, type 2 diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, type 1 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome X, or dyslipidemia, diabetes during pregnancy, prediabetes, Alzheimer's disease, MODY 1, MODY 2, or MODY 3 diabetes, mood disorders, and psychiatric disorders. It will be understood that this combination approach may also be used in insulin-resistant patients receiving insulin sensitizers or secondary drugs for diabetes (e.g., biguanides such as metformin, glitazone, etc.) or insulin secretagogues (e.g., sulfonylureas, GLP-1, exendin-4, etc.) and / or amylin.
[0231] In some embodiments, the compounds of the Disclosure (e.g., compounds of formula I or formula IB) may be administered to a patient receiving at least one additional therapy or taking at least one additional drug or therapeutic protein. In some embodiments, at least one additional therapy is intended to treat the same disease or disorder as the administered compound (e.g., compounds of formula I or formula IB). In some embodiments, at least one additional therapy is intended to treat side effects of the compound (e.g., compounds of formula I or formula IB) or as an adjuvant. The timeframes of the two therapies may be different or the same, and they may be administered on the same or different schedules, as long as there is a period during which the patient benefits from both therapies. Two or more therapies may be administered in the same or different formulations, as long as there is a period during which the patient benefits from both therapies. Any of these approaches may be used to target and administer two or more antidiabetic drugs.
[0232] In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount of the compound (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB) is used, which is sufficient to treat a disease or condition with a reasonable benefit-to-risk ratio (e.g., improving its symptoms, slowing its progression, preventing its recurrence, or delaying its onset). In some embodiments, this may involve balancing efficacy with additional safety and toxicity. Additional safety means that the compound (e.g., a compound of formula I or formula IB) may be responsive to changes in blood glucose levels or other molecular levels, even when the patient is not actively monitoring the levels of the molecule, such as blood glucose levels, during a given time frame, for example, while sleeping. In some embodiments, therapeutic efficacy and toxicity are measured using standard pharmacological procedures with cell cultures or in vivo experimental animals, e.g., the therapeutic index ED of the drug. 50 and LD 50 This can be determined by measuring [the relevant parameters]. In some embodiments, the average daily dose of insulin, including the molecular structure, is in the range of 5 to 400 U (e.g., 30 to 150 U, where 1 unit of insulin is approximately 0.04 mg). In some embodiments, the amount of the compound (e.g., the compound of formula I or formula IB) and these insulin doses are administered daily, every other day, every three days, or every four days.
[0233] In some embodiments, the standard is determined by an algorithm that can be calculated by computer. In some embodiments, 5 to 10 times the amount of this dose of the compound, for example, the compound of formula I or formula IB, is administered weekly or at regular intervals. In some embodiments, 10 to 20 times the amount of these doses of the conjugate is administered every other week or at regular intervals. In some embodiments, 20 to 40 times the amount of these doses of the compound (for example, the compound of formula I or formula IB) is administered monthly or at regular intervals. In some embodiments, the C-terminus of the A chain of insulin may be further extended with a peptide (amino acid sequence) containing 1 to 20 amino acid residues. In some embodiments, the insulin analog is desB30 insulin.

In at least some embodiments, Z1a comprises (or consists of) 1 to 50 amino acid residues, e.g., 1 residue, 50 residues, or any intermediate number of residues (e.g., 10, 15, 25, 30, 42 residues, etc.). In some embodiments, Z1a comprises 1 to 15 amino acids. In at least some embodiments, the peptide Z1a comprises 1 to 8 amino acids. In some embodiments, Z1a comprises 5 to 6 amino acids.
