## Background
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a triazolone derivative or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a process for the preparation thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same.
BACKGROUND ART
Diabetes mellitus is classified into type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus. About 95% of the patients suffer from type 2 diabetes mellitus. For treating diabetes mellitus and/or complications thereof, there have been used various agents, for example, agents for stimulating insulin secretion (such as sulfonylurea derivatives, meglitinide derivatives, etc.), agents for improving insulin resistance (such as biguanide derivatives, thiazolidinedione derivatives, etc.), agents for inhibiting carbohydrate digestion (such as alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, etc.), incretins (such as GLP-1 analogs, DPP-4 inhibitors, etc.) (Current Opinion in Drug Discovery & Development, 2009, 12). However, it is well-known in the art that the agents for stimulating insulin secretion, which are most commonly used, cause side effects such as hypoglycemia, weight gain, etc. In addition, it have been reported that the biguanide derivatives show side effects such as lactic acidosis, etc.; and that the thiazolidinedione derivatives show side effects such as hepatic toxicity, heart failure, etc. (D. D. Sears et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2009; 106: 18745-18750).
Meanwhile, G protein-coupled receptor also known as GPR119 is mainly expressed in pancreatic islets and in the gastrointestinal tract. GPR119 activation mediates insulin secretion through direct action on pancreatic β-cells; and stimulates the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion in the intestinal L-cells, thereby improving glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) (Lina M. L. et al., Diabetes 2009; 58: 1058-1066). Therefore, it is expected that an agent for activating GPR119 increases glucose homeostasis, thereby being able to be used as a potential agent for treating diabetes mellitus as well as inhibiting food intake and weight gain. In fact, there are various reports that GPR119 agonists show fat loss and weight loss through various obesity animal models (Matias I. et al., Br J Pharmacol 2007; 152(2): 676-690, Hansen H. S. et al., Biochemical Pharmacology 78 (2009) 553-560, Hiroyuki O. et al., Life sciences 92 (2013) 167-173).
The stimulation of insulin secretion by GPR119 activation can avoid potential hypoglycemia, since it makes glucose-dependent insulin secretion possible through stimulating the formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the β-cells. The GLP-1 secretion and cAMP activation by continuous GPR119 activation increase the islet beta cell mass, which improves self-insulin production, thereby making it possible to treat insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (Ansarullah et al., Plos one 2013; 8(1):1-11, Gao J. et al., Transplant International 2011 European Society for Organ Transplantation 24 (2011) 1124-1134). Therefore, it is expected that GPR119 agonists may be continuously used as an agent for treating diabetes mellitus for long duration, while minimizing the side effects (e.g., hypoglycemia, weight gain) of conventional hypoglycemic agents or anti-diabetic agents.

Experimental Example 1
cAMP Accumulation Assay
32 μl of an assay medium (DMEM supplemented with GlutaMaxTM 99%, dialyzed FBS 1%, non-essential amino acid 1 mM, HEPES 25 mM, penicillin 100 U/ml, and streptomycin 100 μg/ml) was added to each well of a 384 black well plate and then the GPR119 CRE-bla CHO-K1 cells (Invitrogen) were seeded in 1×104 cells per well. Doxycycline was dissolved in the assay medium in the concentration of 1 μg/ml. The resulting solution (4 μl) was added to each well, which was then incubated in a 5% CO 2 incubator at 37° C. for about 20 to 24 hours. Each test compounds were diluted with the assay medium to prepare 10 samples, which have concentrations ranging from 1 μM to 3 μM, respectively. Each samples (8 μl) was added to each well, which was then incubated in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37° C. for 5 hours. In case of the control group, the well was treated with a solution (8 μl) prepared by diluting dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in the assay medium to 1%. The substrate mixture (8 μl) was added to each well, which was then left under darkness at room temperature for 2 hours. The substrate mixture contains the followings: 1 mM LiveBLAzerTM-FRET B/G(CCF4-AM) substrate 6 μl, solution B 60 μl, solution C 904 μl, and solution D 30 μl.
Fluorescence intensity was determined under the wavelength conditions of 400 nm/465 nm (excitation/emission) for the blue channel and 400 nm/535 nm (excitation/emission) for the green channel, with the fluorescence microplate reader (SpectraFluor Plus. TECAN). The net activity of each well was calculated by subtracting the average value of the cell-free control group from the value of the unstimulated (i.e., non-treated) control group or the stimulated (i.e., test compound-treated) group at each wavelength. MBX-2982 (Metabolex) was used as a control drug. The response ratio was calculated by dividing the net signal ratio (465 nm/535 nm) of the control drug or the test compound by the net signal ratio (465 nm/535 nm) of the non-treated control group. The relative ratio (R.R) was calculated by dividing the maximum activity [Emax (fold)] of the test compound (i.e., % activity in comparison with the background) by the maximum activity [Emax (fold)] of the control drug (MBX-2982) [Emax (% RR)=(Emax of the test compound/Emax of MBX-2982)×100]. EC50 (half maximal effective concentration) was calculated using the software for statistical analysis “Prism 5.0 (GraphPad)”, based on the values obtained according to concentrations of the test compounds. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 below.

Experimental Example 2
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
The oral glucose tolerance test of the compounds according to the present invention was carried out according to the procedures disclosed in Andrikopoulos S, Blair A R, Deluca N, Fam B C, Proietto J, Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab. 2008, Vol 295, E1323-1332. Briefly, male C57BL/6 mice at 8 to 9 weeks of age having 20 g to 25 g of body weight (Orient Bio Inc. Korea) were allowed to acclimatize to the surroundings (temperature: 20±2° C., humidity: 40-60%, light/dark cycle: 12 hours) for 1 week. During the acclimatization, the mice were given ad libitum access to feed and water. The mice were fasted from 18 hours before the test, except for allowing free access to water. After measuring the mice′ body weights and blood sugar levels, they were divided into test groups so as to have similar blood sugar levels. The mice were orally administered with a mixture of test compound and the diluent (0.5% solution of MC1500 (Sigma)). At 30 minutes after the administration, the mice were also orally administered with 20% glucose solution in an amount of 0.1 ml per 10 g of body weight. The blood samples were taken from the tail vain at 0 (right before the administration of the glucose solution), 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after the administration of the glucose solution; and the blood sugar levels thereof were measured with a blood glucose test meter (GlucoDr. AGM-3000, All Medicus Co. Ltd.). The graph for blood sugar level on time for each test compound was plotted from the respective blood sugar values; and then area under the curve (AUCglucose) was determined. The inhibition rate of blood sugar (%) was calculated from the following formula. The results are shown in Table 3 below.

Inhibition rate of blood sugar (%)=[(AUCglucose of the negative control group−AUCglucose of the test group)/AUCglucose of the negative control group]×100
