Solution Overview

Problem

Current small molecule modulators for GPR119 receptor have limitations in efficacy and safety for treating metabolic disorders and obesity-related conditions, necessitating the development of improved compounds.

Innovation Solution

Development of Bicyclic Heterocycle Derivatives, specifically compounds of Formula (I), which are designed to modulate GPR119 receptors, offering enhanced therapeutic effects for obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases by administering effective amounts of these derivatives or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, esters, or prodrugs.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If current small molecule modulators are used for GPR119 receptor, then the treatment can be administered, but the efficacy and safety are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficacy and safetyVSAvoidtherapeutic effectiveness for metabolic disorders
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by systematically modifying the chemical structure of small molecule modulators through varying substituents (R1-R8), ring systems (J, K, L), and molecular weight parameters to optimize both efficacy and safety profiles for GPR119 receptor treatment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If existing GPR119 modulators are used, then metabolic disorders can be treated, but the therapeutic effects are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic effectivenessVSAvoidlimitations in efficacy
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs composite materials by creating bicyclic heterocycle derivatives that combine multiple structural elements (aromatic rings, heteroatoms, substituent groups) to achieve enhanced therapeutic effects and overcome the limitations of existing single-structure modulators

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials
