Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel peptide compounds which are effective in modulating one or more melanocortin receptor types, to the use of the compounds in therapy, to methods of treatment comprising administration of the compounds to patients in need thereof, and to the use of the compounds in the manufacture of medicaments. The compounds of the invention are of particular interest in relation to the treatment of obesity as well as a variety of diseases or conditions associated with obesity.
Abstract:
Small cyclic peptides of the formula X1-X2-X3-X4-X5-X6-X7-R comprising 7-12 amino acid residues are provided. Said peptides are MC4 receptor agonists, and thus useful in the treatment of obesity and related diseases.

Abstract:
Small cyclic peptides of the formula X1-X2-X3-X4-X5-X6-X7-R 1 comprising 7-12 amino acid residues are provided. Said peptides are MC4 receptor agonists, and thus useful in the treatment of obesity and related diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21), more in particular to derivatives of FGF21 compounds having an albumin binder of the formula A-B- C-D-E- covalently attached. The invention also relates to novel FGF21 analogues, as well as to the pharmaceutical use of these FGF21 derivatives and analogues, in particular for the treatment of diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, and/or Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). The derivatives of the invention are protracted, e.g. capable of maintaining a low blood glucose level for a longer period of time, capable of increasing the in vivo half-life of FGF21, and/or result in a lower clearance of FGF21. The derivatives of the invention are preferably furthermore of an improved oxidative stability.
