Abstract:
As a follow-up to the GPR40 agonist AMG 837, which was evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of type II diabetes, further optimization led to the discovery of AM-3189 (13k). AM-3189 is representative of a new class of compounds with minimal CNS penetration, superior pharmacokinetic properties and in vivo efficacy comparable to AMG 837.
