Background Art

[0002] Background Mitochondria are double-membrane organelles that provide an efficient pathway for eukaryotic cells to produce ATP from energy-rich molecules. Electrons from oxidative substrates are transferred to oxygen through a series of redox reactions to produce water. In this process, protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane from its matrix through respiratory complexes I, III, and IV. When protons return to the mitochondrial matrix along their electrochemical gradient, ATP is synthesized by complex V (ATP synthase).

[0003] Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with neurodegenerative diseases and cancer (de Moura et al., Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis 51:391-405 (2010)), insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia (Kim et al., Circ Res. 2008 February 29;102(4):401-414), alcoholic steatohepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), among other conditions.

[0004] Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a major liver disorder, has recently been estimated to affect more than 25 percent of the world's population and one in three Americans (Younosi et al., Hepatology, 2016; 64:73-84; (Shulman, 2000, J.Clin.Invest. 106:171-176). If untreated, NAFLD often progresses to NASH and can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), or any or all of these three.

[0005] One treatment proposed for treating NAFLD, NASH, and other diseases mediated at least in part by mitochondrial dysfunction is the use of mitochondrial uncoupling agents. Using a protonophore (i.e., a proton translocator) is one method proposed to "uncouple" the energy transport mechanism of mitochondria. This uncoupling results in the processing (breakdown) of energy-rich compounds such as lipids and fatty acids. Furthermore, mitochondrial uncoupling is thought to reduce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are responsible for DNA damage and protein changes in vivo and can thus cause cell dysfunction or programmed cell death (apoptosis). Several mitochondrial uncoupling compounds have been proposed (see, for example, L. Santos et al., Small Molecule Mitochondrial Uncouplers and Their Therapeutic Potential, J.Med.Chem. Nov. 2017, DOI: 10.1021 / acs.jmedchem.7b01182).

[0006] There is a need to provide uncoupling compounds that treat mitochondrial-mediated diseases or conditions without significantly increasing body temperature.

Further, the term heterocyclyl is intended to include any non-aromatic ring containing at least one heteroatom regardless of its bond to the rest of the molecule, and this ring may be fused to an aryl ring or a heteroaryl ring. As used herein, heterocyclyl has

[0107] 4 to 20 ring atoms (i.e., 4- to 20-membered heterocyclyl), 4 to 12 ring atoms (i.e., 4- to 12-membered heterocyclyl), 4 to 10 ring atoms (i.e., 4- to 10-membered heterocyclyl), 4 to 8 ring atoms (i.e., 4- to 8-membered heterocyclyl), or 4 to 6 ring carbon atoms (i.e., 4- to 6-membered heterocyclyl); and independently standing and having 1 to 5 ring heteroatoms, 1 to 4 ring heteroatoms, 1 to 3 ring heteroatoms, 1 to 2 ring heteroatoms, or 1 ring heteroatom selected from nitrogen, sulfur or oxygen, and the bonding point to another substituent may be via carbon or, if appropriate, via a heteroatom. Heterocyclyl may contain one or more oxo groups and / or thioxo groups. Examples of heterocyclyl groups include pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, oxetanyl, dioxolanyl, azetidinyl, azetidinyl, morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl, dioxothiomorpholinyl, 4- to 7-membered sultam, 4- to 7-membered cyclic carbamate, 4- to 7-membered cyclic carbonate, 4- to 7-membered cyclic sulfide,

Chemical Structure

[0108] As used herein, the term "nitrogen- or sulfur-containing heterocyclyl" means a heterocyclyl moiety containing at least one nitrogen atom, at least one sulfur atom, or both nitrogen and sulfur atoms within its ring structure. It should be understood that other heteroatoms, such as oxygen, may be present in addition to this nitrogen, sulfur, or combinations thereof. Examples of nitrogen- or sulfur-containing heterocyclyls include morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, oxazolidinone, 1,2-dithiolyl, piperidinyl, and piperazinyl.

[0109] "Hydroxy" or "hydroxyl" refers to the group -OH. "Hydroxyalkyl" refers to an unbranched or branched alkyl group as defined above, wherein one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by hydroxyl.

[0110] "Nitro" refers to the group -NO 2 .

[0111] "Sulfonyl" refers to the group -S(O) 2 R, where R is a substituent or a defined group.

[0112] "Alkylsulfonyl" refers to the group -S(O) 2 R, where R is an alkyl group.

[0113] "Sulfinyl" refers to the group -S(O)R, where R is a substituent or a defined group.

[0114] "Alkylsulfinyl" refers to the group -S(O)R, where R is an alkyl group.

[0115] "Polycyclic" refers to a ring system containing more than three rings.

[0116] "Thiocyanate" -SCN.

[0117] "Thiol" refers to the group -SH.

[0118] "Thioxo" or "thione" refers to the group (=S) or (S).

[0119] Specific alternative chemical names that are commonly used may be used. For example, divalent groups such as divalent "alkyl" groups and divalent "aryl" groups may also be referred to as "alkylene" groups or "alkylenyl" groups, "arylene" groups or "arylenyl" groups, respectively. Also, unless explicitly indicated otherwise, when a combination of groups is referred to as one part in this specification (e.g., arylalkyl), the last-mentioned group contains the atom to which this part is attached to the rest of the molecule.

[0120] The terms "as required" or "as necessary" mean that the event or situation described subsequently may or may not occur, and this description includes both the case where the event or situation occurs and the case where it does not occur. Also, the term "substituted as required" refers to the fact that any one or more hydrogen atoms on the specified atom or group may or may not be replaced by a moiety other than hydrogen. "Substituted as required" can be from zero to the maximum number of possible substitutions, and each occurrence is independent. When the term "substituted (with)" is used, the substitution must be made at the position of the replaceable hydrogen atom of the indicated substituent. Substitutions as required may be the same as (required) substitutions or different.

[0121] When a moiety is "substituted as required" and this reference is made to a general term such as any "alkyl", "alkenyl", "alkynyl", "haloalkyl", "cycloalkyl", "aryl" or "heteroaryl", this general term is (C 1~3 alkyl), (C 4~6 alkyl), -O(C 1~4 alkyl), (C 3~10 cycloalkyl), and O-(C 3~10It may refer to any antecedent that specifically describes these, such as (cycloalkyl). For example, "any aryl" includes both "aryl" and "-O(aryl)", and examples of aryl such as phenyl or naphthyl. Also, the term "any heterocyclyl" includes both the term "heterocyclyl" and "O-(heterocyclyl)", and examples of heterocyclyl such as oxetanyl, tetrahydropyranyl, morpholino, and piperidinyl. In the same manner, the term "any heteroaryl" includes the term "heteroaryl" and "O-(heteroaryl)" and specific heteroaryls such as pyridine.

[0122] Some of the compounds exist as tautomers. Tautomers are in equilibrium with each other. For example, amide-containing compounds can exist in equilibrium with their imidic acid tautomers. Regardless of which tautomer is shown and regardless of the nature of the equilibrium between tautomers, it is understood by those skilled in the art that these compounds include both the amide tautomer and the imidic acid tautomer. Thus, amide-containing compounds are understood to include their imidic acid tautomers. Similarly, imidic acid-containing compounds are understood to include their amide tautomers.

[0123] Any formula or structure given herein is also intended to represent both the unlabeled form and the isotopically labeled form of the compound. Isotopically labeled compounds have the structure shown by the formula given herein, except that one or more atoms are replaced by atoms having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, 2 H (deuterium, D), 3 H (tritium), 11 C, 13 C, 14 C, 15 N, 18 F, 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 36 Cl and 125It includes isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, and chlorine, such as I. Various isotope-labeled compounds of the present disclosure, for example, radioactive isotopes, such as 3 H, 13 C and 14 C incorporated ones. Such isotope-labeled compounds can be useful in metabolic studies, reaction kinetics studies, detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays, or in the radiotherapy of patients.

[0124] The present disclosure also includes "deuterated analogs" of the compounds of Formula I in which 1 to n hydrogens attached to a carbon atom are replaced by deuterium, where n is the number of hydrogens in the molecule. Such compounds exhibit increased resistance to metabolism and are thus useful for increasing the half-life of any compound of Formula I when administered to mammals, particularly humans. See, for example, Foster, "Deuterium Isotope Effects in Studies of Drug Metabolism", Trends Pharmacol. Sci. Vol. 5(12):524 - 527 (1984). Such compounds are synthesized by means well known in the art, for example, by utilizing starting materials in which one or more hydrogens are replaced by deuterium.

[0125] The deuterium-labeled or deuterium-substituted therapeutic compounds of the present disclosure can have improved DMPK (drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics) properties with respect to distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). Substitution with a heavier isotope, such as deuterium, can provide certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as an increase in the in vivo half-life, a reduction in the required dose of administration, and / or an improvement in the therapeutic index. 18The F-labeled compounds may be useful for PET or SPECT studies. The isotope-labeled compounds and their prodrugs of the present disclosure can generally be prepared by substituting unlabeled isotopes with readily available isotope-labeled reagents in the schemes or by performing the procedures disclosed in the following examples and preparations. In this context, it is understood that deuterium is considered a substituent of the compounds of formula I.

[0126] The concentration of such heavier isotopes, particularly deuterium, can be defined by the isotope enrichment factor. In the compounds of the present disclosure, any atom not specifically designated as a particular isotope means any stable isotope of that atom. Unless otherwise stated, when a position is specifically designated as "H" or "hydrogen", that position is understood to have hydrogen in its natural abundance isotope composition. Thus, in the compounds of the present disclosure, any atom specifically designated as deuterium (D) means deuterium.

[0127] In many cases, the compounds of the present disclosure can form acid salts and / or base salts due to the presence of amino groups and / or carboxyl groups or groups similar thereto. Thereby, acid salts and / or base salts can be formed.

[0128] Also provided are pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, tautomers, polymorphs, and prodrugs of the compounds described herein. "Pharmaceutically acceptable" or "physiologically acceptable" refers to compounds, salts, compositions, dosage forms, and other materials useful for preparing pharmaceutical compositions suitable for veterinary or human pharmaceutical use.

[0129] The "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" of a given compound refers to a salt that maintains the biological effectiveness and properties of the given compound and is not undesirable biologically or otherwise. Examples of "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" or "physiologically acceptable salts" include salts with inorganic acids and salts with organic acids. Further, when the compounds described herein are obtained as acid addition salts, the free base can be obtained by basifying the solution of the acid salt. Conversely, when the product is the free base, addition salts, particularly pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts, can be formed by dissolving the free base in a suitable organic solvent and treating the solution with an acid according to conventional procedures for preparing acid addition salts from basic compounds. Those skilled in the art recognize the various synthetic methodologies that can be used to prepare non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can be prepared from inorganic acids and organic acids. Salts derived from inorganic acids include, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and phosphoric acid. Salts derived from organic acids include acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluene-sulfonic acid, and salicylic acid. Similarly, pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be prepared from inorganic bases and organic bases. Salts derived from inorganic bases include, by way of example only, salts of sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, calcium, and magnesium. Salts derived from organic bases include, for example, alkylamines (i.e., NH 2 (alkyl)), dialkylamines (i.e., HN(alkyl) 2 ), trialkylamines (i.e., N(alkyl) 3 ), substituted alkylamines (i.e., NH 2 (substituted alkyl)), di(substituted alkyl)amines (i.e., HN(substituted alkyl) 2 ), tri(substituted alkyl)amines (i.e., N(substituted alkyl) 3 ), alkenylamines (i.e., NH 2(alkenyl)), dialkenylamine (i.e., HN(alkenyl) 2 ), trialkenylamine (i.e., N(alkenyl) 3 ), substituted alkenylamine (i.e., NH 2 (substituted alkenyl)), di(substituted alkenyl)amine (i.e., HN(substituted alkenyl) 2 ), tri(substituted alkenyl)amine (i.e., N(substituted alkenyl) 3 , mono-, di- or tri-cycloalkylamine (i.e., NH 2 (cycloalkyl), HN(cycloalkyl) 2 , N(cycloalkyl) 3 ), mono-, di- or tri-arylamine (i.e., NH 2 (aryl), HN(aryl) 2 , N(aryl) 3 ), or salts of primary amines, secondary amines and tertiary amines such as mixed amines, but are not limited thereto. Specific examples of suitable amines include, by way of example only, isopropylamine, trimethylamine, diethylamine, tri(isopropyl)amine, tri(n-propyl)amine, ethanolamine, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, piperazine, piperidine, morpholine, and N-ethylpiperidine and the like.

[0130] The term "substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms of the designated atom or group are replaced by one or more substituents other than hydrogen, provided that the normal valence of the designated atom is not exceeded. One or more substituents include alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, acyl, amino, amide, amidino, aryl, azide, carbamoyl, carboxyl, carboxyl ester, cyano, guanidino, halo, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl, hydroxy, hydrazino, imino, oxo, nit Examples include, but are not limited to, oxo, alkylsulfinyl, sulfonic acid, alkylsulfonyl, thiocyanate, thiol, thione, or combinations thereof. Polymers or similar infinite structures (e.g., a substituted aryl having a substituted alkyl, where the substituted alkyl itself is substituted with a substituted aryl group, and the substituted aryl group is further substituted with a substituted heteroalkyl group, etc.) achieved by defining substituents with further substituents added without limitation are not intended to be included herein. Unless otherwise stated, the maximum number of consecutive substitutions in the compounds described herein is 3. For example, consecutive substitutions of a substituted aryl group having two other substituted aryl groups are limited to ((substituted aryl)substituted aryl)substituted aryl. Similarly, the above definitions are not intended to include unacceptable substitution patterns (e.g., a methyl substituted with five fluorines or a heteroaryl group having two adjacent oxygen ring atoms). Such unacceptable substitution patterns are well known to those skilled in the art. When used to modify a chemical group, the term "substituted" may describe other chemical groups as defined herein. Unless otherwise specified, when a group is described as optionally substituted, any substituent of that group itself is unsubstituted. For example, in some embodiments, the term "substituted alkyl" refers to an alkyl group having one or more substituents including, but not limited to, hydroxyl, halo, alkoxy, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, aryl, and heteroaryl. In other embodiments, the one or more substituents may be further substituted with halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, hydroxyl, alkoxy, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, aryl, or heteroaryl, each of which is substituted. In other embodiments, these substituents may be further substituted with halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, hydroxyl, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, aryl, or heteroaryl, each of which is unsubstituted.One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the substituents and other moieties of the compounds of the general formula herein are to be selected for the purpose of providing compounds that are sufficiently stable to provide pharmaceutically useful compounds that can be formulated into pharmaceutically acceptable, stable compositions. Compounds having such stability are contemplated to fall within the scope of the present invention. It should be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that any combination of the above-described definitions and substituents should not result in species or compounds that are impossible to implement.

[0131] As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" includes any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. The use thereof in therapeutic compositions is contemplated except where any conventional media and agent is incompatible with the active ingredient. Additional active ingredients can also be incorporated into these compositions.

[0132] As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" includes any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. The use thereof in therapeutic compositions is contemplated except where any conventional media and agent is incompatible with the active ingredient. Additional active ingredients can also be incorporated into these compositions.

[0133] A "solvate" is formed by the interaction of a solvent with a compound. Solvates of the salts of the compounds described herein are also provided. Hydrates of the compounds described herein are also provided. Pharmaceutical composition

[0134] While the active ingredients can be administered alone, these active ingredients are formulated into pharmaceutical preparations (formulations It may preferably be provided as a finished product). The formulations of the present invention contain, for both veterinary and human use, at least one active ingredient as defined above, together with one or more acceptable carriers therefor and, optionally, other therapeutic ingredients. This carrier(s) must be "acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and must be physiologically harmless to its recipient.

[0135] Examples of these formulations include formulations suitable for the above administration routes. For simplicity, these formulations may be provided in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the pharmaceutical art. Techniques and formulations are generally found in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences (Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA). Such methods include the step of bringing the active ingredient into association with an inert ingredient (e.g., carrier, pharmaceutical excipient, etc.) that constitutes one or more secondary ingredients. Generally, these formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association a liquid carrier or a finely divided solid carrier, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.

[0136] In certain embodiments, formulations suitable for oral administration are provided as discrete units such as capsules, cachets, or tablets, each containing a predetermined amount of the active ingredient.

[0137] In certain embodiments, these pharmaceutical formulations contain one or more of the compounds of the present invention, together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients, and optionally other therapeutic agents. The pharmaceutical formulations containing the active ingredient can be in any form suitable for the intended method of administration. For example, when used for oral use, tablets, troches, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsions, hard or soft capsules, syrups or elixirs can be prepared. Compositions intended for oral use can be prepared according to any method known in the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions, and such compositions can contain one or more agents such as sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents, and preservatives for the purpose of providing a palatable preparation. Tablets containing the active ingredient as a mixture with a non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipient suitable for the manufacture of tablets are acceptable. These excipients can be, for example, inert diluents such as calcium carbonate or sodium carbonate, lactose, lactose monohydrate, croscarmellose sodium, povidone, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents such as corn starch or alginic acid; binding agents such as cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, starch, gelatin or acacia gum; and lubricants such as magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. Tablets can be uncoated or coated by known techniques, and known techniques include microencapsulation for providing a sustained action over a longer period by delaying disintegration and adsorption in the gastrointestinal tract. For example, time-delay materials such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate can be used alone or together with wax.

[0138] The amount of active ingredient combined with the inert ingredients to produce the dosage form will vary depending on the host being treated and the specific mode of administration. For example, in some embodiments, a dosage form for oral administration to humans contains from about 1 to 1000 mg of active material formulated with a suitable amount of a convenient carrier material (e.g., an inert ingredient or excipient material). In certain embodiments, this carrier material varies from about 5 to about 95% (weight: weight) of the total composition. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein contain from about 1 to 800 mg, 1 to 600 mg, 1 to 400 mg, 1 to 200 mg, 1 to 100 mg or 1 to 50 mg of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein contain less than about 400 mg of a compound of formula I. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein contain about 100 mg of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0139] In addition to the components specifically mentioned above, it should be understood that the formulations disclosed herein may contain other agents that are conventional in the art with respect to the type of formulation in question, for example, suitable for oral administration, flavoring and odor-masking agents may be mentioned.

[0140] There is further provided a veterinary composition containing at least one active ingredient as defined above together with a veterinary carrier.

[0141] A veterinary carrier is a substance useful for the purpose of administering the composition, which can be a solid, liquid or gaseous substance, which are otherwise inert or acceptable in the veterinary field and compatible with the active ingredient. These veterinary compositions can be administered orally, parenterally or by any other desired route.

[0142] The effective dosage of the active ingredient depends at least on the nature of the condition being treated, its toxicity, whether the compound is used prophylactically (lower dosages), the method of delivery, and the pharmaceutical formulation, and is determined by the clinician using conventional dosage escalation studies. Route of administration

[0143] One or more compounds of formula I (referred to herein as the active ingredient), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered by any route appropriate to the condition to be treated. Suitable routes include oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), vaginal and parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intradermal, intrathecal and epidural). The preferred route may vary, for example, depending on the condition of the recipient. One advantage of the compounds of the present invention is that they are orally bioavailable and can be administered orally. Accordingly, in one embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein are in oral dosage form. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein are in oral solid dosage form. Finally, it is within the discretion of the trained physician to determine the appropriate dosage and route of administration suitable for a particular patient having a particular disease or disorder to be treated.

[0156] The sustained-release agent of the present disclosure can be prepared as follows: A compound, a pH-dependent binder, and any necessary excipients are intimately mixed (dry-blended). Then, this dry-blended mixture is granulated in the presence of an aqueous solution of a strong base (which is sprayed onto the blended powder). The granules are dried, sieved, mixed with a lubricant (e.g., talc or magnesium stearate) as necessary, and compressed into tablets. A preferred aqueous solution of a strong base is a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, preferably sodium hydroxide, in water (optionally containing a water-miscible solvent up to 25%, such as a lower alcohol).

[0157] The obtained tablets can be coated with a film-forming agent as necessary for purposes of identification, taste masking, and improving ease of swallowing. This film-forming agent is typically present in an amount in the range of 2% to 4% of the weight of the tablets. Suitable film-forming agents are well-known in the art and include hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, cationic methacrylate copolymers (dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate / methyl-butyl methacrylate copolymer - Eudragit® E - Roehm.Pharma), and the like. These film-forming agents may contain coloring agents, plasticizers, and other auxiliary components as necessary.

[0158] The compressed tablets preferably have sufficient hardness to withstand a compression of 8 Kp. The size of the tablets mainly depends on the amount of the compound in the tablets. These tablets contain 300 to 1100 mg of the free base of the compound. Preferably, these tablets contain the free acid of the compound in amounts in the ranges of 400 to 600 mg, 650 to 850 mg, and 900 to 1100 mg.

[0159] For the purpose of affecting the dissolution rate, the time for wet mixing the powder containing the compound is controlled. Preferably, the total time of powder mixing, i.e., the time during which this powder is exposed to the sodium hydroxide solution, ranges from 1 minute to 10 minutes, preferably from 2 minutes to 5 minutes. After granulation, the particles are taken out of the granulator and placed in a fluidized bed dryer at about 60 °C for drying.

[0161] Method As used herein, a method for treating and / or preventing hyperlipidemia in a subject in need thereof is provided, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I). For example, the compounds herein can be used to treat primary (genetic) lipid disorders (e.g., familial hypercholesterolemia, Wolman disease, and cholesteryl ester storage disease), as well as secondary (acquired) lipid disorders (e.g., true diabetes, elevated cholesterol (especially elevated LDL cholesterol), combined hyperlipidemia / type IIb, elevated triglycerides alcohol abuse, chronic kidney disease, hypothyroidism, and hyperlipidemia associated with primary biliary ry cholangitis).

[0162] In a subject in need of treating and / or preventing a metabolic disorder including, but not limited to, diabetes (including type I and type II diabetes), metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, high serum cholesterol, and hypertriglyceridemia, a method for treating and / or preventing this metabolic disorder is provided, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I).

[0163] In a patient in need of treating and / or preventing a liver disease, a method for treating and / or preventing the liver disease is also disclosed, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I). The presence of an active liver disease can be detected by the presence of elevated enzyme levels in the blood. Specifically, blood levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) that are higher than the clinically acceptable normal range are known to be indicators of ongoing liver damage. Daily monitoring of the blood levels of ALT and AST in patients with liver disease is clinically used to measure the progression of the liver disease during medical treatment. A decrease in elevated ALT and AST within the acceptable normal range is adopted as clinical evidence reflecting a decrease in the severity of the patient's ongoing liver damage.

[0164] In certain embodiments, this liver disease is a chronic liver disease. Chronic liver disease involves progressive destruction and regeneration of the liver parenchyma, leading to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Generally, chronic liver disease can be caused by viruses (e.g., hepatitis B, hepatitis C, cytomegalovirus (CMV), or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)), toxic agents or drugs (e.g., alcohol, methotrexate, or nitrofurantoin), metabolic diseases (e.g., non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), hemochromatosis, or Wilson's disease), autoimmune diseases (e.g., autoimmune chronic hepatitis, Primary Biliary Cholangitis (formerly known as Primary Biliary Cirrhosis), or primary sclerosing cholangitis), or other causes (e.g., right heart failure).

[0165] In one embodiment, provided herein is a method for reducing the level of cirrhosis. In one embodiment, cirrhosis is pathologically characterized by loss of the normal microscopic lobular architecture, with fibrosis and nodular regeneration. Methods for measuring the degree of cirrhosis are well known in the art. In one embodiment, the level of cirrhosis is reduced by about 5% to about 100%. In one embodiment, the level of cirrhosis is reduced in a subject by at least about 5%, at least about 10%, at least about 15%, at least about 20%, at least about 25%, at least about 30%, at least about 35%, at least about 40%, at least about 45%, at least about 50%, at least about 55%, at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or about 100%.

[0166] In certain embodiments, the liver disease is a metabolic liver disease. In one embodiment, the liver disease is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome (obesity, combined hyperlipidemia, type II diabetes mellitus, and hypertension). NAFLD is thought to encompass a range of disease activity and begins with fat accumulation in the liver (hepatic steatosis).

[0167] Both obesity and insulin resistance have been shown to likely play strong roles in the disease process of NAFLD. In addition to poor diet, there are several other known causes of NAFLD. For example, NAFLD can be caused by certain medications, such as amiodarone, antiviral drugs (e.g., nucleoside analogs), aspirin (rarely as part of Reye's syndrome in children), corticosteroids, methotrexate, tamoxifen, or tetracycline. NAFLD has also been associated with the consumption of soft drinks in the presence of high-fructose corn syrup, which can cause an increase in abdominal fat accumulation, although sucrose consumption shows a similar effect (presumably due to its breakdown to fructose). Genetic traits are also known to play a role, and two genetic mutations for this susceptibility have been identified.

[0168] If untreated, NAFLD can progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is the most extreme form of NAFLD, a condition where steatosis is accompanied by inflammation and fibrosis. NASH is considered a major cause of liver cirrhosis. Accordingly, provided herein is a method of treating and / or preventing non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I).

[0169] In the present specification, there is also provided a method for treating and / or preventing liver fibrosis in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I). Liver fibrosis is an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins including collagen, which occurs in most types of chronic liver diseases. In certain embodiments, advanced liver fibrosis results in cirrhosis and liver failure. Methods for measuring liver histology, such as changes in the degree of fibrosis, lobular hepatitis, and periportal bridging necrosis, are well known in the art. In one embodiment, the treatment described herein can improve the patient's fibrosis from baseline, for example, from F4 to F3, from F3 to F2, or from F2 to F1. In one embodiment, the patient's fibrosis score improves by 1 or more after 24 weeks of daily treatment.

[0170] In one embodiment, the level of liver fibrosis, which is the formation of fibrous tissue, fibroids or fibrotic degeneration, is reduced by more than about 90%. In one embodiment, the level of liver fibrosis, which is the formation of fibrous tissue, fibroids or fibrotic degeneration, is reduced by at least about 90%, at least about 80%, at least about 70%, at least about 60%, at least about 50%, at least about 40%, at least about 30%, at least about 20%, at least about 10%, at least about 5% or at least about 2%.

[0171] In one embodiment, the compounds provided herein reduce the level of fibrogenesis in the liver. Liver fibrogenesis is a process that results in the accumulation of excessive extracellular matrix components of the liver, known as fibrosis. This is, for example, chronic viral hepatitis B and C, alcoholic liver disease, drug-induced liver disease, hemochromatosis, autoimmune hepatitis, Wilson's disease, primary biliary cirrhosis (Primary Biliary Cholangitis) (formerly known as Primary Biliary Cirrhosis), sclerosing cholangitis, and many conditions such as Schistosomiasis mansoni of the liver. In one embodiment, the level of fibrosis is reduced by more than about 90%. In one embodiment, the level of fibrosis is at least about 90%, at least about 80%, at least about 70%, at least about 60%, at least about 50%, at least about 40%, at least about 30%, at least about 20%, at least about 10%, at least about 5% or at least 2%.

[0172] In still other embodiments, provided herein is a method for treating and / or preventing primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I).

[0173] Also disclosed herein is a method for treating or preventing a cardiovascular disorder in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I). Cardiovascular diseases include, for example, any one or more of heart failure (including congestive heart failure, dilated heart failure, systolic heart failure, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction), acute heart failure, ischemia, recurrent ischemia, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, angina pectoris (including exercise-induced angina, variant angina, stable angina, unstable angina), acute coronary syndrome, diabetes, intermittent claudication, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

[0174] Also provided herein is a method for improving a pathological consequence or outcome associated with oxidative stress in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a mitochondrial uncoupling compound.

[0175] Combination therapy The compounds of the present disclosure are contemplated to be useful in desired combination products. Such products may be in the form of the compound alone, but it is sometimes preferred to co-formulate two or more compounds in a single dosage form.

[0176] Patients treated by administration of the mitochondrial uncoupling compounds of the present disclosure often exhibit a disease or condition that can benefit from treatment with other therapeutic agents. These diseases or conditions can be of a neurodegenerative nature or can be associated with, for example, cancer, metabolic disorders, liver diseases, and gastrointestinal disorders. Accordingly, one aspect of the present disclosure is a method of treating a disease or condition related to metabolism, or a neurodegenerative disorder, a liver disease or condition, or cancer, etc., the method comprising administering the compound in combination with one or more compounds useful for treating such a disease to a subject in need thereof, particularly a human subject.

[0177] In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure are formulated together with one or more additional active ingredients. In some embodiments, the other active ingredients are administered in a different dosage form, approximately simultaneously. In some embodiments, the other active ingredients are administered sequentially and can be administered at a different time point than the compounds of the present disclosure.
