Abstract

Claims (19)

1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising: i) {2-[3-cyclohexyl-3-(trans-4-propoxy-cyclohexyl)-ureido]-thiazol-5-ylsulfanyl}-acetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, ii) a GLP-1 analog or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and iii) at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient, diluent or mixture thereof.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the GLP-1 analog is exenatide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

3. A method of treating type II diabetes comprising administering to a subject a glucokinase activator that is {2-[3-cyclohexyl-3-(trans-4-propoxy-cyclohexyl)-ureido]-thiazol-5-ylsulfanyl}-acetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and administering to the subject a GLP-1 analog or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein insulin sensitivity in the subject is increased.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the subject is a human.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the glucokinase activator and the GLP-1 analog are administered in discrete dosage forms.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the glucokinase activator and the GLP-1 analog are administered in a single dosage form.

7. The method of claim 3 , wherein the GLP-1 analog is administered by injection and the glucokinase activator is administered orally.

8. The method of claim 3 , wherein the GLP-1 analog is exenatide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

9. A method of improving glycemic control by increasing a subject's insulin sensitivity comprising administering to a subject a glucokinase activator that is {2-[3-cyclohexyl-3-(trans-4-propoxy-cyclohexyl)-ureido]-thiazol-5-ylsulfanyl}-acetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and administering to the subject a GLP-1 analog or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the subject is a human.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the glucokinase activator and the GLP-1 analog are administered in discrete dosage forms.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the glucokinase activator and the GLP-1 analog are administered in a single dosage form.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the GLP-1 analog is administered by injection and the glucokinase activator is administered orally.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the GLP-1 analog is exenatide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

15. A method of treating a condition in a subject by increasing the subject's insulin sensitivity comprising administering to a subject {2-[3-cyclohexyl-3-(trans-4-propoxy-cyclohexyl)-ureido]-thiazol-5-ylsulfanyl}-acetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and administering a GLP-1 analog or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the condition is selected from the group consisting of a metabolic disorder, glucose intolerance, prediabetic state, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), Syndrome X, impaired fasting glucose (IFG), dyslipidemia, hyperlipidemia, hyperlipoproteinemia, hypertension, osteoporosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), complications resulting from or associated with diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and obesity.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein i) the complication resulting from or associated with diabetes is selected from the group consisting of nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy and impaired wound healing or ii) the cardiovascular disease is selected from the group consisting of arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis.

17. A method of improving insulin sensitivity in a subject comprising administering to the subject {2-[3-cyclohexyl-3-(trans-4-propoxy-cyclohexyl)-ureido]-thiazol-5-ylsulfanyl}-acetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and administering to the subject a GLP-1 analog or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the subject is a human.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the subject is a human.
