Description

BACKGROUND

Pyruvate kinase (PK) is a metabolic enzyme that converts phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate during glycolysis. Four PK isoforms exist in mammals: the L and R isoforms (from the PKLR gene) are expressed in liver and red blood cells respectively, and the PKM gene encodes two splice variants, the M1 isoform that is expressed in most adult tissues, and the M2 isoform that is expressed during embryonic development and in some adult tissues including the kidney and hematopoietic stem cells. Many tumor cells also express PKM2. This tetrameric allosterically regulated isoform is intrinsically designed to downregulate its activity, through post-translational modification, allosteric modulation by small molecule ligands including some amino acids, and by subunit dissociation (into the dimeric form), which results in partial inhibition of glycolysis at the last step. This accumulates upstream glycolytic intermediates as an anabolic carbon source for synthesis of lipids and nucleic acids, whereas reassociation of PKM2 into active tetramer replenishes the normal catabolic state as a feedback after cell division (Protein Sci. 2010 November; 19(11): 2031-2044). Modulation (e.g. inhibition or activation) of PKM2 may be effective in the treatment of a number of disorders, e.g., cancer, obesity, diabetic diseases (e.g. diabetic nephropathy (DN)), coronary artery disease (CAD), Bloom Syndrome (BS), autoimmune conditions, and proliferation-dependent diseases (e.g., benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)).

In certain embodiments, the compound of Formulas (I)-(IX), (I′)-(V′) are selected from any one of the compounds set forth in Table 1 and in the Examples. In certain embodiments, the compound of Formulas (I)-(IX), (I′)-(V′) are of the formula of any one below:

wherein R^na, R^nc, R^o2, and R^o6 are as defined herein, and R^ox is hydrogen or an oxygen protecting group. In certain embodiments, R^na is a nitrogen protecting group (e.g. SEM or BOC). In certain embodiments, R^nc is a nitrogen protecting group (e.g. SEM or BOC). In certain embodiments, R^o2 is an oxygen protecting group (e.g. THP). In certain embodiments, R^o6 is an oxygen protecting group (e.g. TBS). In certain embodiments, R^ox is an oxygen protecting group (e.g. THP).

The compounds described herein can be made using a variety of synthetic techniques as set forth in the Examples. Synthetic chemistry transformations and protecting group methodologies (protection and deprotection) useful in synthesizing the compounds described herein are known in the art and include, for example, those such as described in R. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, VCH Publishers (1989); T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2d. Ed., John Wiley and Sons (1991); L. Fieser and M. Fieser, Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, John Wiley and Sons (1994); and L. Paquette, ed., Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis, John Wiley and Sons (1995), and subsequent editions thereof.

Certain activator compounds useful as PKM2 wild type and/or mutant activators are those that demonstrate specificity and activation of PKM2 enzyme (wild type and/or a mutant enzyme) in the absence of FBP to a level greater than that of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 99, or 100% in the presence of FBP.

In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) can be prepared using methods illustrated in Scheme 1. Thiazolyl aldehyde of formula S1 reacts with ethyl azidoacetate under nucleophilic addition conditions (e.g. a base) in an appropriate solvent (e.g. ethanol) to give intermediates of formula S2. The hydroxyl group of formula S2 can be converted to a leaving group and subject to elimination to give formula S3. Cyclization and subsequent functionalization of the amino group provides bicyclic compound of formula S5, which undergoes nucleophilic displacement with sodium methanethiolate, followed by oxidation to give formula S7. Further cyclization of formula S7 in the presence of hydrazine, followed by nucleophilic displacement with LG¹-CH₂-Q¹ in the presence of a base provides intermediates of formula S9. The sulfur group in formula S9 can be oxidized to sulfinyl or sulfonyl to provide formula S10 or S11, which is a substrate for further nucleophilic displacement to generate a general formula S12. As used herein, X¹ is a leaving group as defined herein. In certain embodiments, X¹ is halogen, alkanesulfonyloxy, arenesulfonyloxy, diazonium, alkyl diazenes, aryl diazenes, alkyl triazenes, aryl triazenes, nitro, alkyl nitrate, aryl nitrate, alkyl phosphate, aryl phosphate, alkyl carbonyl oxy, aryl carbonyl oxy, alkoxcarbonyl oxy, aryoxcarbonyl oxy ammonia, alkyl amines, aryl amines, hydroxyl group, alkyloxy group, aryloxy group; LG¹ is a leaving group as defined herein; Q¹ is optionally substituted cycloalkyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, or optionally substituted heteroaryl; and Nu¹ is a nucleophile as defined herein. Nu¹ of compound of formula S12 can be further converted to other functionalities with standard chemical transformations. R¹ is as defined in the first embodiment.

In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) can be prepared using methods shown in Scheme 2. Similar to Scheme 1, formula S21 can be prepared from thiazole aldehyde of formula S13. Halogenation of formula S21 gives formula S22, which can undergo an organo coupling reaction with an alkyl metal, alkenyl metal, alkynyl metal, aryl metal, heteroaryl metal, heterocyclyl metal, or cycloalkyl metal to give a compound of formula S23. As used herein, X³ is a halogen; R¹ is as defined in the first embodiment of the invention; LG² is a leaving group as defined herein; Q² is optionally substituted cycloalkyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, or optionally substituted heteroaryl; M¹ is a metal (e.g. Li, Na, K, Mg, Zn, Sn, B, Pd, Si, Cu etc.), X⁴ is halogen or alkyl sulfonic acid ester or an aryl sulfonic acid ester; R^r1 is optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted alkynyl, optionally substituted cycloalkyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, or optionally substituted heteroaryl. In certain embodiments, the organo coupling reaction is Negishi reaction; X³ is I; and M¹ is Zn.

Compounds of formula S22 and S23 are useful intermediates to introduce more functionalities at X³ and/or R^r1 position (Scheme 3). In certain embodiments, the compound of formula 23-i can be further oxidized to form formula S24. Nucleophilic addition of S24 with an appropriate nucleophile generates a compound of S25. In another embodiment, compounds of formula S22 can be coupled with vinyl metal to introduce the vinyl group to the thiazole ring. Oxidation of the vinyl group followed by nucleophilic addition provides a compound of formula S28. As used herein, Nu² is a nucleophile.

As used herein, R^r2 is optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted alkynyl, optionally substituted cycloalkyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, or optionally substituted heteroaryl. Nu¹ and Q2 is as defined in Scheme 2.

As used herein, a nucleophile is a chemical species that donates an electron pair to an electrophile to form a chemical bond in relation to a reaction. All molecules or ions with a free pair of electrons or at least one pi bond can act as nucleophiles. Exemplary nucleophiles comprise at least one group possessing nucleophilic functionality, for example, an alpha carbon (e.g. the carbon adjacent to carbonyl, sulfonyl, sulfinyl, aryl group, or heteroaryl), a thiol group, a hydroxyl group, a primary amine group, a secondary amine group, a halide, cyanide, azide, alcoxide, organic metal, or inorganic base.

In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) can be prepared using methods shown in Scheme 4. Nucleophilic displacement of formulae S30 with a secondary cyclic amine provides formulae S31. Organo-coupling reactions (e.g. Suzuki coupling, Pd coupling etc.) of compound S32 provide a compound of formulae S33(i)-(iii). Further, the sulfinyl group of formula S34 can be functionalized with ammonium carbamate to give imino-sulfanone of formula S35.

As used herein,

X⁴ is halogen or -OTf. M⁴ is an organic metal with appropriate ligands if needed (organic or inorganic) as valency permits. Exemplified M⁴ includes, but is not limited to organic Li, Sn, B (e.g. boronic acids and boronic esters), Zn, Mg, Si, Pd, and Cu.

Methods of Treatment

In one embodiment, provided is a method for treating a disease, condition or disorder as described herein (e.g., treating) comprising administering a compound, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound or pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound described herein (e.g., a compound of Formulas (I)-(IX), (I′)-(V′), in the Examples, and in Table 1, and FIGS. 1A-1C, 2A-2C, 3).

The compounds and compositions described herein can be administered to cells in culture, e.g. in vitro or ex vivo, or to a subject, e.g., in vivo, to treat, and/or diagnose a variety of disorders, including those described herein below.

Proliferative Disease

In some embodiments, provided is a method of treating a proliferative disease comprising administering to a subject a compound, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or pharmaceutical composition thereof, as described herein. As used here, “proliferative disease” refers to a disease that occurs due to abnormal growth or extension by the multiplication of cells (Walker, Cambridge Dictionary of Biology; Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK, 1990). A proliferative disease may be associated with: 1) the pathological proliferation of normally quiescent cells; 2) the pathological migration of cells from their normal location (e.g., metastasis of neoplastic cells); 3) the pathological expression of proteolytic enzymes such as the matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenases, gelatinases, and elastases); or 4) the pathological angiogenesis as in proliferative retinopathy and tumor metastasis. Exemplary proliferative diseases include cancers (i.e., “malignant neoplasms”), benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases. In certain embodiments, the proliferative disease is cancer. In certain embodiments, the proliferative disease is an autoimmune disease.

The terms “neoplasm” and “tumor” are used herein interchangeably and refer to an abnormal mass of tissue wherein the growth of the mass surpasses and is not coordinated with the growth of a normal tissue. A neoplasm or tumor may be “benign” or “malignant,” depending on the following characteristics: degree of cellular differentiation (including morphology and functionality), rate of growth, local invasion, and metastasis. A “benign neoplasm” is generally well differentiated, has characteristically slower growth than a malignant neoplasm, and remains localized to the site of origin. In addition, a benign neoplasm does not have the capacity to infiltrate, invade, or metastasize to distant sites. Exemplary benign neoplasms include, but are not limited to, lipoma, chondroma, adenomas, acrochordon, senile angiomas, seborrheic keratoses, lentigos, and sebaceous hyperplasias. In some cases, certain “benign” tumors may later give rise to malignant neoplasms, which may result from additional genetic changes in a subpopulation of the tumor's neoplastic cells, and these tumors are referred to as “pre-malignant neoplasms.” An exemplary pre-malignant neoplasm is a teratoma. In contrast, a “malignant neoplasm” is generally poorly differentiated (anaplasia) and has characteristically rapid growth accompanied by progressive infiltration, invasion, and destruction of the surrounding tissue. Furthermore, a malignant neoplasm generally has the capacity to metastasize to distant sites. The term “metastasis,” “metastatic,” or “metastasize” refers to the spread or migration of cancerous cells from a primary or original tumor to another organ or tissue and is typically identifiable by the presence of a “secondary tumor” or “secondary cell mass” of the tissue type of the primary or original tumor and not of that of the organ or tissue in which the secondary (metastatic) tumor is located. For example, a prostate cancer that has migrated to bone is said to be metastasized prostate cancer and includes cancerous prostate cancer cells growing in bone tissue.

The term “cancer” refers to a class of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that proliferate uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissues. See, e.g., Stedman's Medical Dictionary, 25th ed.; Hensyl ed.; Williams & Wilkins: Philadelphia, 1990. Exemplary cancers include solid tumors, soft tissue tumors, and metastases thereof. The disclosed methods are also useful in treating non-solid cancers. Exemplary solid tumors include malignancies (e.g., sarcomas, adenocarcinomas, and carcinomas) of the various organ systems, such as those of lung, breast, lymphoid, gastrointestinal (e.g., colon), and genitourinary (e.g., renal, urothelial, or testicular tumors) tracts, pharynx, prostate, and ovary. Exemplary adenocarcinomas include colorectal cancers, renal-cell carcinoma, liver cancer, non-small cell carcinoma of the lung, and cancer of the small intestine.

Cancer Combination Therapies

In some embodiments, the provided method further comprises administering one or more additional cancer treatments. Exemplary cancer treatments include, for example: chemotherapy, targeted therapies such as antibody therapies, immunotherapy, and hormonal therapy. Examples of each of these treatments are provided below.

In some embodiments, a compound described herein is administered with one or morechemotherapies. Chemotherapy is the treatment of cancer with drugs that can destroy cancer cells. “Chemotherapy” usually refers to cytotoxic drugs which affect rapidly dividing cells in general, in contrast with targeted therapy. Chemotherapy drugs interfere with cell division in various possible ways, e.g., with the duplication of DNA or the separation of newly formed chromosomes. Most forms of chemotherapy target all rapidly dividing cells and are not specific for cancer cells, although some degree of specificity may come from the inability of many cancer cells to repair DNA damage, while normal cells generally can.

Examples of chemotherapeutic agents used in cancer therapy include, for example, antimetabolites (e.g., folic acid, purine, and pyrimidine derivatives) and alkylating agents (e.g., nitrogen mustards, nitrosoureas, platinum, alkyl sulfonates, hydrazines, triazenes, aziridines, spindle poison, cytotoxic agents, toposimerase inhibitors and others). Exemplary agents include Aclarubicin, Actinomycin, Alitretinon, Altretamine, Aminopterin, Aminolevulinic acid, Amrubicin, Amsacrine, Anagrelide, Arsenic trioxide, Asparaginase, Atrasentan, Belotecan, Bexarotene, endamustine, Bleomycin, Bortezomib, Busulfan, Camptothecin, Capecitabine, Carboplatin, Carboquone, Carmofur, Carmustine, Celecoxib, Chlorambucil, Chlormethine, Cisplatin, Cladribine, Clofarabine, Crisantaspase, Cyclophosphamide, Cytarabine, Dacarbazine, Dactinomycin, Daunorubicin, Decitabine, Demecolcine, Docetaxel, Doxorubicin, Efaproxiral, Elesclomol, Elsamitrucin, Enocitabine, Epirubicin, Estramustine, Etoglucid, Etoposide, Floxuridine, Fludarabine, Fluorouracil (5FU), Fotemustine, Gemcitabine, Gliadel implants, Hydroxycarbamide, Hydroxyurea, Idarubicin, Ifosfamide, Irinotecan, Irofulven, Ixabepilone, Larotaxel, Leucovorin, Liposomal doxorubicin, Liposomal daunorubicin, Lonidamine, Lomustine, Lucanthone, Mannosulfan, Masoprocol, Melphalan, Mercaptopurine, Mesna, Methotrexate, Methyl aminolevulinate, Mitobronitol, Mitoguazone, Mitotane, Mitomycin, Mitoxantrone, Nedaplatin, Nimustine, Oblimersen, Omacetaxine, Ortataxel, Oxaliplatin, Paclitaxel, Pegaspargase, Pemetrexed, Pentostatin, Pirarubicin, Pixantrone, Plicamycin, Porfimer sodium, Prednimustine, Procarbazine, Raltitrexed, Ranimustine, Rubitecan, Sapacitabine, Semustine, Sitimagene ceradenovec, Satraplatin, Streptozocin, Talaporfin, Tegafur-uracil, Temoporfin, Temozolomide, Teniposide, Tesetaxel, Testolactone, Tetranitrate, Thiotepa, Tiazofurin, Tioguanine, Tipifarnib, Topotecan, Trabectedin, Triaziquone, Triethylenemelamine, Triplatin, Tretinoin, Treosulfan, Trofosfamide, Uramustine, Valrubicin, Verteporfin, Vinblastine, Vincristine, Vindesine, Vinflunine, Vinorelbine, Vorinostat, Zorubicin, and other cytostatic or cytotoxic agents described herein.

In some embodiments, a compound described herein is administered with one or more targeted therapies. Targeted therapy constitutes the use of agents specific for the deregulated proteins of cancer cells. Small molecule targeted therapy drugs are generally inhibitors of enzymatic domains on mutated, overexpressed, or otherwise critical proteins within the cancer cell. Prominent examples are the tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as Axitinib, Bosutinib, Cediranib, dasatinib, erlotinib, imatinib, gefitinib, lapatinib, Lestaurtinib, Nilotinib, Semaxanib, Sorafenib, Sunitinib, and Vandetanib, and also cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors such as Alvocidib and Seliciclib. Monoclonal antibody therapy is another strategy in which the therapeutic agent is an antibody which specifically binds to a protein on the surface of the cancer cells. Examples include the anti-HER2/neu antibody trastuzumab (HERCEPTIN®) typically used in breast cancer, and the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab and Tositumomab typically used in a variety of B-cell malignancies. Other exemplary anbibodies include Cetuximab, Panitumumab, Trastuzumab, Alemtuzumab, Bevacizumab, Edrecolomab, and Gemtuzumab. Exemplary fusion proteins include Aflibercept and Denileukin diftitox. In some embodiments, the targeted therapy can be used in combination with a compound described herein.

Targeted therapy can also involve small peptides as “homing devices” which can bind to cell surface receptors or affected extracellular matrix surrounding the tumor. Radionuclides which are attached to these peptides (e.g., RGDs) eventually kill the cancer cell if the nuclide decays in the vicinity of the cell. An example of such therapy includes BEXXAR®.

In some embodiments, a compound described herein is administered with one or more immunotherapies. Cancer immunotherapy refers to a diverse set of therapeutic strategies designed to induce the patient's own immune system to fight the tumor. Contemporary methods for generating an immune response against tumors include intravesicular BCG immunotherapy for superficial bladder cancer, and use of interferons and other cytokines to induce an immune response in renal cell carcinoma and melanoma patients.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can be considered a form of immunotherapy, since the donor's immune cells will often attack the tumor in a graft-versus-tumor effect. In some embodiments, the immunotherapy agents can be used in combination with a compound described herein.

In some embodiments, a compound described herein is administered with one or more hormonal therapies. The growth of some cancers can be inhibited by providing or blocking certain hormones. Common examples of hormone-sensitive tumors include certain types of breast and prostate cancers. Removing or blocking estrogen or testosterone is often an important additional treatment. In certain cancers, administration of hormone agonists, such as progestogens may be therapeutically beneficial. In some embodiments, the hormonal therapy agents can be used in combination with a compound described herein.

Obesity and Fat Disorders

In some embodiments, provided is a method of treating or preventing obesity in a human subject (e.g. a child or adult) by administering to the human subject an effective amount of the compound, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or pharmaceutical composition thereof as described herein. “Obesity” refers to a condition in which a subject has a body mass index of greater than or equal to 30. Many compounds described herein can be used to treat or prevent an over-weight condition. “Over-weight” refers to a condition in which a subject has a body mass index of greater or equal to 25.0. The body mass index (BMI) and other definitions are according to the “NIH Clinical Guidelines on the Identification and Evaluation, and Treatment of Overweight and Obesity in Adults” (1998). Treatment with the compound may be in an amount effective to alter the weight of the subject, e.g., by at least 2, 5, 7, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 25, 40, 45, 50, or 55%. Treatment with a compound may be in an amount effective to reduce the body mass index of the subject, e.g., to less than 30, 28, 27, 25, 22, 20, or 18. The compounds can be used to treat or prevent aberrant or inappropriate weight gain, metabolic rate, or fat deposition, e.g., anorexia, bulimia, obesity, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia (e.g., elevated triglycerides and/or elevated cholesterol), as well as disorders of fat or lipid metabolism.

A compound or composition described herein can be administered to treat obesity associated with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). PWS is a genetic disorder associated with obesity (e.g., morbid obesity).

A compound or composition described herein can be used to reduce body fat, prevent increased body fat, reduce cholesterol (e.g., total cholesterol and/or ratios of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol), and/or reduce appetite in individuals having PWS associated obesity, and/or reduce comorbidities such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke.

Hyperglycemia

High glucose levels induce metabolic abnormalities in glucose metabolic pathways and induce mitochondrial dysfunction. This also overproduces reactive oxygen species (ROS). Elevated intracellular glucose leads to accumulation of the toxic glucose metabolites sorbitol, methylglyoxal (MG) and diacylglycerol (DAG), which have been proposed to contribute to microvascular complication, e.g., DN. Small-molecule PKM2 activators were found to reverse hyperglycemia-induced elevation in toxic glucose metabolites and mitochondrial dysfunction (Nat Med. 2017, 23(6): 753-762; U.S. Pat. No. 9,921,221).

In certain embodiments, provided herein is a method of treating treat hyperglycemia in a subject comprising comprising administering a therapeutic effective amount of the compound, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or pharmaceutical composition thereof.

In certain embodiments, provided herein is a method of treating a diabetic disease in a subject comprising comprising administering a therapeutic effective amount of the compound, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or pharmaceutical composition thereof. A “diabetic disease” as used herein refers to diabetes and pre-diabetes as well as diabetic implications. Diabetes refers to a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the body does not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced. This high blood sugar produces the classical symptoms of polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst) and polyphagia (increased hunger). There are several types of diabetes. Type I diabetes results from the body's failure to produce insulin, and presently requires the person to inject insulin or wear an insulin pump. Type II diabetes results from insulin resistance a condition in which cells fail to use insulin properly, sometimes combined with an absolute insulin deficiency. Gestational diabetes occurs when pregnant women without a previous diagnosis of diabetes develop a high blood glucose level. Other forms of diabetes include congenital diabetes, which is due to genetic defects of insulin secretion, cystic fibrosis-related diabetes, steroid diabetes induced by high doses of glucocorticoids, and several forms of monogenic diabetes, e.g., mature onset diabetes of the young (e.g., MODY 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10). Pre-diabetes indicates a condition that occurs when a person's blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes. All forms of diabetes increase the risk of long-term complications. These typically develop after many years, but may be the first symptom in those who have otherwise not received a diagnosis before that time. The major long-term complications relate to damage to blood vessels. Exemplary diabetic implications include cardiovascular disease, macrovascular diseases such as ischemic heart disease (angina, myocardial infarction), stroke, and peripheral vascular disease, microvascular complications (e.g., damage to the small blood vessels), diabetic retinopathy (i.e. the impact of diabetes on blood vessel formation in the retina of the eye), diabetic nephropathy (i.e. the impact of diabetes on the kidneys), diabetic neuropathy (e.g. the impact of diabetes on the nervous system, most commonly causing numbness, tingling and pain in the feet and also increasing the risk of skin damage due to altered sensation), diabetic foot ulcers, and syndrome X. In certain embodiments, a “diabetic disease” includes one or more selected from hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinaemia, diabetes, insulin resistance, impaired glucose metabolism, conditions of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), conditions of impaired fasting plasma glucose, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy, glomerulosclerosis, diabetic neuropathy and syndrome X.

In certain embodiments, the compound or composition described herein can be used to lower the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and/or at least one of the glucose metabolites (e.g. sorbitol, methylglyoxal (MG) and diacylglycerol (DAG)) in a subject.

In certain embodiments, the compound or composition described herein can be used to treat a microvascular complication.

In certain embodiments, the compound or composition described herein can be used to treat DN. In certain embodiments, the treatment of DN can include lessening of any symptom associated with DN, including, but not limited to, changes in appetite, change in sleep, protein in serum, weakness, and/or nausea.

In certain embodiments, the method further comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of one or more secondary agents that increase the level or activity of one or more of the DN protective factors. Exemplary DN protective factors include, but are not limited to SOD1-Superoxide dismutase; TPI1—Triosephosphate isomerase isoform 2; SORD-Sorbitol dehydrogenase; ALDOA—Aldolase A, fructose-bisphosphate; GAPDH—Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; PKM—Pyruvate kinase isozymes M1/M2; ENO1—Alpha-enolase; FGB—Fibrinogen beta chain; SELENBP1-Selenium binding protein 1; PEBP1—Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 1; CRYL1—Lambda-crystallin homolog (U.S. Pat. No. 9,921,221, which is incorporated by reference on its entirety). A secondary agent may increase the level or activity of a protective factor or decrease the level or activity of a risk factor by at least 50%, 100% (1-fold), 1½-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 10-fold, 15-fold, 20-fold or more. In certain embodiments, the provided method comprises bringing the level or activity of a protective factor essentially to its level or activity in a subject that is protected from the development of a microvascular complication. “Essentially within its level,” refers to within less than 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or 100% of the control value. The secondary agent may be a small molecule, a protein comprising the protective factor or a biologically active variant (e.g., fragment) thereof, or a nucleic acid encoding a protein comprising the protective factor or a biologically active variant (e.g., fragment) thereof. Biologically active variants of the proteins of protective factors also include full length immature and mature forms or fragments thereof that comprise an amino acid sequence that differs from the naturally occurring sequence or fragment thereof in at most 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 or 100 amino acid deletions, additions or substitutions, such as conservative amino acid substitutions. Biologically active variants of the proteins of the DN protective factors may also include variants that are at least 70%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 98% or 99% identical to the full length mature or precursor human PEBP1 protein (or other biomarker identified in this specification) or a fragment thereof.

In some embodiments, the method provided further comprises selecting a subject for treatment. For example, a subject can be selected if the subject has or is at risk for developing DN, e.g., a subject having diabetes, e.g., type 1 or type 2 diabetes, or a subject who is prediabetic, e.g., having metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia or a subject who is overweight or obese, e.g., having a BMI≥25. In some instances, a subject can be selected if the subject has or is at risk for developing type 1 and/or type 2 diabetes. In some instances, a subject can be selected if the subject is taking or will take insulin, e.g., to treat diabetes.

Cardiovascular disease is a chronic inflammatory condition. Increased glucose uptake and glycolytic flux promotes reactive oxygen species in mitochondria. ROS promotes dimerization of PKM2 and enable its nuclear translocation. Nuclear PKM2 functions as protein kinase and boosts IL-6 and IL-1β production. This results in systemic and tissue inflammation. Reducing glycolysis and enforcing PKM2 tetramerization was found to correct proinflammatory phenotype of coronary artery disease (CAD) macrophages (J. Exp. Med. 2016, 213(3): 337-354).

In certain embodiments, provided herein is a method of treating a cardiovascular disease in a subject comprising administering a therapeutic effective amount of the compound, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or pharmaceutical composition thereof. The compounds or composition described herein can lower the plasma glucose level in a subject. A “cardiovascular disease” as defined in this application comprises, but is not limited to hypertension, congestive heart failure, diabetes, glomerulosclerosis, chronic renal failure, coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, stroke, vascular restenosis endothelial dysfunction, impaired vascular compliance and congestive heart failure. In certain embodiments, the cardiovascular disease is coronary artery disease (CAD). In certain embodiments, the compound or composition described herein can be used to lower the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mitochondria in a subject.

In certain embodiments, provided herein is a method of treating an autoimmune disease in a subject comprising comprising administering a therapeutic effective amount of the compound, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or pharmaceutical composition thereof. It was found that activation of PKM2 attenuated an LPS-induced proinflammatory M1 macrophage phenotype while promoting traits typical of an M2 macrophage. Additionally, it was found activation of PKM2 by TEPP-46 in vivo inhibited LPS and IL-1β production, whilst boosting production of IL-10. (Cell Metab. 2015, 21(1): 65-80) Accordingly, PKM2 activators can be useful to treat an autimmune disease by promoting IL-1β and/or IL-10 production.

An “autoimmune disease” refers to a disease arising from an inappropriate immune response of the body of a subject against substances and tissues normally present in the body. Exemplary autoimmune diseases include, but are not limited to, glomerulonephritis, Goodpasture's syndrome, necrotizing vasculitis, lymphadenitis, peri-arteritis nodosa, systemic lupus erythematosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosis, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis/polymyositis, anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome, scleroderma, pemphigus vulgaris, ANCA-associated vasculitis (e.g., Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis), uveitis, Sjogren's syndrome, Crohn's disease, Reiter's syndrome, ankylosing spondylitis, Lyme disease, Guillain-Barre syndrome, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and cardiomyopathy.
