          Background

          Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4) inhibitors improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes by prolonging the half-life of incretin peptides, which stimulate insulin secretion and decrease glucagon release in a glucose-dependent manner. MK-3102 is a novel long-acting DPP-4 inhibitor. In vitro: MK-3102 is a competitive, reversible inhibitor of DPP-4 and is more potent than sitagliptin. It is highly selective over all proteases tested, including QPP, FAP, PEP, DPP8, and DPP9. The compound has weak ion channel activity [1]. In vivo: MK-3102 was evaluated for its ability to improve glucose tolerance in lean mice. When orally administered 1 h prior to dextrose challenge in an oral glucose tolerance test, it significantly reduced blood glucose excursion in a dosedependent manner from 0.01 mg/kg to 0.3 mg/kg [1]. Clinical trial: MK-3102 is currently in phase 3 clinical trial for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Dose-dependent efficacy in 2 h post meal glucose reduction, fasting plasma glucose reduction, and HbA1c and safety profile similar to that seen with once daily DPP-4 inhibitor such as sitagliptin was observed in a 12-week phase IIB dose-rangefinding study [1].
