  • Use of dipeptidyl peptidase IV effectors for lowering the blood glucose level in mammals
    Patent 6,303,661
    Issued: October 16, 2001
    Inventor(s): Demuth; Hans-Ulrich & Rosche; Fred & Schmidt; Joem & Pauly; Robert P. & McIntosh; Christopher H. S. & Pederson; Ray A.
    Assignee(s): Probiodrug
    Novel therapeutic regimens are provided which comprise the administration of therapeutically effective amounts of an inhibitor to dipeptidyl peptidase (DP-IV) or enzymes of similar activity whereby their ability to degrade the incretins, GLP-1 and GIP, is reduced. As a result hyperglycemia, such as that accompanying food intake may be reduced due to improved insulin release. A preferred therapeutic regimen amongst a number of routes of administration and inhibitors that may be used comprises the oral administration of isoleucyl thiazolidine.
