    Trial completion, Trial primary completion date:  A Proof of Concept Study of Pradigastat in Patients With Functional Constipation (clinicaltrials.gov) -  Jun 8, 2022   
    P2,  N=181, Completed, 
    ANJ908 increased the mean (SE) placebo-subtracted number of SBM/week by +2.28 (0.75; p = 0.0027) and +3.10 (0.74; p < 0.0001) and CSBM/week by +1.53 (0.70; p = 0.03) and +1.81 (0.70; p = 0.01), respectively at week 4.

    Journal:  DGAT1 inhibitors protect pancreatic β-cells from palmitic acid-induced apoptosis. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 2, 2021   
    We showed that DGAT1 inhibitors (4a and LCQ908) at the concentration of 1 μM significantly ameliorated palmitic acid (PA)-induced apoptosis in MIN6 pancreatic β-cells and primary cultured mouse islets; oral administration of a DGAT1 inhibitor (4a) (100 mg/kg) for 4 weeks significantly reduced the apoptosis of pancreatic islets in db/db mice...Furthermore, we revealed that pretreatment with 4a (1 μM) significantly alleviated PA-induced intracellular lipid accumulation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and proinflammatory responses in MIN6 cells, which might contribute to the protective effects of DGAT1 inhibitors on pancreatic β-cells. These findings provided a better understanding of the antidiabetic effects of DGAT1 inhibitors.

    Journal:  A novel low systemic diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 inhibitor, Yhhu2407, improves lipid metabolism. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 22, 2021   
    Here we report a novel DGAT1 inhibitor, Yhhu2407, which showed a stronger DGAT1 inhibitory activity (IC = 18.24 ± 4.72 nM) than LCQ908 (IC = 78.24 ± 8.16 nM) in an enzymatic assay and led to a significant reduction in plasma TG after an acute lipid challenge in mice...In vivo study also disclosed that Yhhu2407 exerted a beneficial effect on regulating plasma TG and lipoprotein levels in rats, and effectively ameliorated high-fat diet (HFD)-induced dyslipidemia in hamsters. In conclusion, we identified Yhhu2407 as a novel DGAT1 inhibitor with potent efficacy on improving lipid metabolism in rats and HFD-fed hamsters without causing obvious adverse effects.

    Newer oral agents including pemafibrate and bempedoic acid have generally favorable pharmacokinetics supporting use in a wide range of patients...The small-interfering RNA inclisiran has the notable advantage that a single subcutaneous administration may be effective for up to 6 months. The CV outcome trial results and long term safety data are eagerly awaited for these new agents.
