acid derivative of formula (I), a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a
tautomer or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the
tautomer, which can activate
adenosine 5 '-monophosphate activated
protein kinase (
AMPK). The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a substituted
indazole propionic
acid derivative that activates
AMPK, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a
tautomer or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the tautomer, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable
excipient; and methods of treating conditions comprising administering a substituted
indazole propionic
