, (2020/01/11)
This invention relates to benzodiazepine derivatives, compositions comprising therapeutically effective amounts of those derivatives and methods of using those derivatives or compositions in treating cognitive impairment associated with CNS disorders. It also relates to the use of an α5-containing GABAA receptor agonist (e.g., an α5-containing GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator) in treating cognitive impairment associated with CNS disorders in a subject in need or at risk thereof, including age-related cognitive impairment, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), amnestic MCI, Age-Associated Memory Impairment, Age Related Cognitive Decline, dementia, Alzheimer's Disease(AD), prodromal AD, PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, ALS, cancer-therapy-related cognitive impairment, mental retardation, Parkinson's disease, autism spectrum disorders, fragile X disorder, Rett syndrome, compulsive behavior, and substance addiction. It also relates to the use of an α5-containing GABAA receptor agonist (e.g., an α5-containing GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator) in treating brain cancers (including brain tumors, e.g., medulloblastomas), and cognitive impairment associated therewith.

This invention relates to benzodiazepine derivatives, compositions comprising therapeutically effective amounts of those benzodiazepine derivatives and methods of using those derivatives or compositions in treating cognitive impairment associated with central nervous system (CNS) disorders. In particular, it relates to the use of a α5- containing GABAA receptor agonist (e.g., a α5-containing GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator) as described herein in treating cognitive impairment associated with central nervous system (CNS) disorders in a subject in need or at risk thereof, including, without limitation, subjects having or at risk for age-related cognitive impairment, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), amnestic MCI (aMCI), Age- Associated Memory Impairment (AAMI), Age Related Cognitive Decline (ARCD), dementia, Alzheimer' s Disease(AD), prodromal AD, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), cancer-therapy-related cognitive impairment, mental retardation, Parkinson' s disease (PD), autism spectrum disorders, fragile X disorder, Rett syndrome, compulsive behavior, and substance addiction.

Positron emission tomography (PET) using the tracer [11C] Flumazenil has shown changes in the distribution and expression of the GABA A receptor in a range of neurological conditions and injury states. We aim to develop a fluorine-18 labelled PET agent with comparable properties to [11C]Flumazenil. In this study we make a direct comparison between the currently known fluorine-18 labelled GABAA radiotracers and novel imidazobenzodiazepine ligands. A focussed library of novel compound was designed and synthesised where the fluorine containing moiety and the position of attachment is varied. The in vitro affinity of twenty-two compounds for the GABAA receptor was measured. Compounds containing a fluoroalkyl amide or a longer chain ester group were eliminated due to low potency. The fluorine-18 radiochemistry of one compound from each structural type was assessed to confirm that an automated radiosynthesis in good yield was feasible. Eleven of the novel compounds assessed appeared suitable for in vivo assessment as PET tracers.
