[0003] The present application relates to chemically modified peptides and uses thereof in treating certain diseases or disorders.2. BACKGROUND

[0004] The urocortins (UCNs), UCN1, UCN2 and UCN3 are endogenous peptides that interact with corticotropin-releasing factor receptors 1 and 2 (CRFR1 and CRFR2). CRFR1 and CRFR2 are activated non-selectively by corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) and UCN1, whereas UCN2 and UCN3 are CRFR2~selective agonists. UCN2 selectively activates CRFR2, including the known isoforms CRFR2-alpha (a), -beta (b) and -gamma (g).

[0005] CRFR2 agonists have demonstrated an effect prechnically in cardiovascular function via the reduction of vascular resistance, and kidney function. In clinical studies, UCN2 and UCN3 have been shown to have direct vasorelaxant actions in healthy volunteers and in patients with heart failure. Further, UCN2 has also been shown to increase cardiac output and reduce vascular resistance in patients with heart failure. However, the extremely short half-life of urocortins remains a major limitation to their therapeutic use, for example in the management of patients that require treatment suitable for long-standing and home selfadministration.1NAI-50022729563.

[0053] Provided herein are peptides, such as chemically modified peptides, in particular corticotropin releasing factor receptor 2 (CRFR.2) agonists, and more particularly CRFR2 agonist peptides and related methods of treatments using each of the same. For example, in one aspect, provided herein are chemically modified CRF2 agonist peptides (e.g., the peptides as described in Section 5.2). In certain embodiments, the peptides provided herein comprises a fatty acid component (e g., a fatty acid component as described in Section 5.2.3). In another aspect, provided herein are methods of treating a disease or disorder (e.g,, methods as described in Section 5.4.1). In yet another aspect, provided herein are peptides for use in treating a disease or disorder (e.g.. the peptides for use in treating a disease or disorder as described in Section 5.4.2). In yet another aspect, provided herein is use of a peptide provided herein in the manufacture of a medicament for treating a disease or di sorder (e.g.. the use as described in Section 5.4.3). In another aspect, provided herein are pharmaceutical combinations (e.g.. the pharmaceutical combinations as described in Section 5.5). In yet another aspect provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions (e.g , the pharmaceutical compositions as described in Section 5.6). In yet another aspect, provided herein are processes for malting a peptide as provided herein (e.g., the processes as described in SectionNAI-5002272956 265.7).

[0054] Urocortins (UCNs) UCNi. UCN2 and UCN3 are endogenous peptides that interact with corticotropin-releasing factor receptors 1 and 2 (CRFR1 and CRFR2).[0055 [ Studies in mice have demonstrated that UCN2 and / or UCN3 gene transfer in mice improves not only cardiac function but also glucose disposal. In addition, subcutaneous delivery of pegylated UCN2 has been shown to improve glucose tolerance and increase glucose uptake in skeletal muscle while reducing body weight. These findings demonstrate that urocortins can be useful not only in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases but also in the treatment of diseases such as diabetes and obesity.

[0056] The extremely short half-life of urocortins remains a major limitation to their therapeutic use. Specifically, treatment with urocortins cannot be sustained without continuous intravenous infusion. However, the management of chronic diabetic or heart failure patients requires treatment suitable for long-standing and home self-administration,

[0057] To overcome these limitations, there remains a need for improved CRFR2 agonists which are useful as therapeutic agents in the treatment and prevention of diseases. There is a need for selective CRFR2 agonists having desirable efficacy, pharmacokinetic properties (e.g.. improved half-life) and / or physicochemical properties (e.g., improved stability and / or solubility), for the treatment of disease or disorders selected from, but not limited to, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, diabetes, sarcopenia, kidney disease, cachexia, heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Provided herein are CRFR2 agonist peptides, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such peptides, and methods of using such peptides that meet such needs.

[0058] The peptides provided herein have a particular fatty acid component linked to the peptide chain at a particular amino acid position. The peptides provided herein have shown superior properties / results as compared to other CRFR2 agonist peptides in the art, for example, superior properties / results relative to reference peptides, such as the reference peptide of SEQ ID NO: 39. Such superior properties / results include but are not limited to, those described in Section 7 (Examples) below, including superior in vitro activities in CRFR2 expressing cells, superior in vivo pharmacokinetics properties (e.g., higher AUG level and / or longer half-life), superior in vivo activity and / or efficacy (e g. increased food intake inhibition, body weight reduction, fat mass reduction and muscle mass retention), superior target selectivity (e.g., very low or no CRFR1 agonist activity and potent CRFR2 agonist activity), superior solubility, superior properties for formulation, as well as the combination of one or two superior properties / results. Exemplary assays and results for demonstratingNAI-5002272956such superior properties are provided in Section 7 (Examples). In certain embodiments, the superior properties / results can lead to superior therapeutic activities and / or safety profile In certain embodiments, the superior therapeutic activities or safety' profile may be demonstrated in animal models or clinical studies, such as the ones provided in Section 7. In certain embodiments, without being bound by the theory, the amino-acid-sequence features of the peptides provided herein lead to superior results in comparison to known reference peptides. Such features include but are not limited to the fatty- acid at RL. Glu at R32, Nle at R38, Thr at R40 and He at R.-11, provided herein, such as the features in SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO: 10, SEQ ID NO: 1 1, SEQ ID NO: 12, SEQ ID NO: 13, SEQ ID NO:57, SEQ ID NO:58, SEQ ID NO:59, SEQ ID NO: 60. and SEQ ID NO:61.5.1 Definitions[0059| The nomenclature of by Schroder & Lubke, “The Peptides”, Academic Press (1965) is used to define the peptides provided herein, wherein, in accordance with conventional representation, the amino terminal group appears to the left and the carboxyl terminal group to the right. The standard 1 -letter or 3-letter abbreviations are used to identify the alpha-amino acid residues, and where the amino acid residue has isomeric forms, it is the L-form of the amino acid that is represented unless otherwise expressly indicated, e.g., Ser=L-serine. Om=L-omithine, Aad=L-2-aminoadipic acid. Nle=L-norleucine. etc. It is understood that, if an amino acid residue (naturally occurring or non-naturally occurring) is shown in a sequence, the individual amino acid residues are ail connected via peptide bonds and are shown in amino-terminal-to-carboxy'l-terminal direction starting from the left.

[0202] In certain embodiments, the peptides described herein have characteristics that include an agonistic activity profile against corticotropin-releasing factor receptors. In certain embodiments, the peptides provided herein have a superior activity profile against the corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 1 (CRFR I) and / or the corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 2 (CRFR2). In certain embodiments, the peptides provided herein have a superior activity profile against the human CRFR2 isofonn a, isoform p, or isoform y. In certain embodiments, the peptides provided herein are capable of activating corticotropin releasing factor receptor 2 (CRFR2) selectively over corticotropin releasing factor receptor 1 (CRFRI ) In certain embodiments, the peptides provided herein have no detectable agonist activity towards CRFRI .

[0203] In certain embodiments, the peptides described herein exhibit potent agonistic activity at the corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 2 (CRFR2) (as indicated by low half maximal effective concentration (EC-ie) at the CRFR2) and / or at the corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 1 (CRFRI) (as indicated by low ECso at the CRFRI), for example as assessed using a cell-based assay. In certain embodiments, ECso is determined using a cell-based assay, such as a cell engineered to stably express the human CRFRZa, the human CRFR2P, the human CRFR2y, the human CRFRI , the mouse CRFR2, the rat CRFR2, the dog CRFR2, the cynomolgus monkey (cyno) CRFR2, the mouse CRFRI, the rat CRFRI, the dog CRFRI, or the cyno CRFRI.

[0204] In certain embodiments, the EC so at the CRFR2 or CRFRI is determined in the presence of an agent that blocks nonspecific binding, such as casein.NAI-5002272956 151
