Benefits of technology

The present invention provides compounds that can act as positive allosteric modulators of mAChR M1, which are useful for preventing or treating neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Specifically, the invention relates to a series of 4-azaindole derivatives that can act as positive allosteric modulators of mAChR M1. These compounds have been found to have high potency and selectivity for mAChR M1, and can provide a safer and more effective treatment for these neurological disorders.

Problems solved by technology

As a result, muscarinic activation by non-selective agonists has resulted in dose-limiting peripheral cholinergic side-effects which may be attributed to their relative lack of selectivity.
Since the orthosteric acetylcholine binding site is highly conserved across the muscarinic family, obtaining selective mAChR M1 orthosteric ligands may prove challenging.

Abstract

4-Azaindole derivatives which are modulators of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) M1 and which may be effective for the prevention or disease modifying or symptomatic treatment of cognitive deficits associated with neurological disorders such as Alzheimer-type dementia (AD) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and a pharmaceutical composition comprising a 4-azaindole derivative as an active ingredient.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to 4-azaindole derivatives and the pharmaceutical use thereof. More particularly, the present invention relates to 4-azaindole derivatives which are modulators of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) M1 (mAChR M1) and may be effective for the prevention or disease modifying or symptomatic treatment of cognitive deficits associated with neurological disorders such as Alzheimer-type dementia (AD) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a 4-azaindole derivative as an active ingredient.BACKGROUND[0002]It is believed that cholinergic hypofunction contributes to the cognitive deficits associated with Alzheimer's disease (Science, 1982, 215, 1237-1239) and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, which inhibit acetylcholine hydrolysis, are used clinically for the treatment of cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease. Cholinergic deficits are also prominent in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB)...
