The invention relates to a derivative of a GLP-1 analogue, which analogue comprises a first K residue at a position corresponding to position 37 of GLP-1 (7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1), a second K residue at a position corresponding to position 26 of GLP-1 (7-37), and a maximum of ten amino acid modifications as compared to GLP-1 (7-37), wherein the first K residue is designated K, and the second K residue is designated K, which derivative comprises two albumin binding moieties attached to K and K, respectively, wherein the albumin binding moiety comprises a protracting moiety selected from: Chem. 1 : HOOC-(CH)-CO-* Chem. 2: HOOC-CH-O-(CH)-CO-* Chem. 3: R-CH-(CH)-CO-* Chem. 4: HOOC-CSH-(CH)-CO-* in which x is an integer in the range of 6-18, y is an integer in the range of 3-17, z is an integer in the range of 1 -5, R is a group having a molar mass not higher than 150 Da, and w is an integer in the range of 6-18; with the proviso that when the protracting moiety is Chem. 1, the albumin binding moiety further comprises a linker of formula Chem. 5: *-NH-(CH)-(O-(CH))-O-(CH)-CO-*, wherein k is an integer in the range of 1-5, and n is an integer in the range of 1-5; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, amide, or ester thereof. The invention also relates to the pharmaceutical use thereof, for example in the treatment and/or prevention of all forms of diabetes and related diseases, as well as to corresponding novel peptides and side chain intermediates. The derivatives are suitable for oral administration. |
