Abstrakt: To provide back-up compounds to support the development of the GABA A receptor (GABAAR) potentiator KRM-II-81, three novel analogs were designed: replacing the pyridinyl with 2'-Cl-phenyl (FR-II-60), changing the positions of the N and O atoms in the oxazole ring with addition of an ethyl group (KPP-III-34 and KPP-III-51), or substituting a Br atom for the ethynyl of KRM-II-81 (KPP-III-34). The compounds bound to brain GABAARs. Intraperitoneal administration of FR-II-60 and KPP-III-34 produced anticonvulsant activity in mice [maximal electroshock (MES)-induced seizures or 6 Hz-induced seizures], whereas KPP-III-51 did not. Although all compounds were orally bioavailable, structural changes reduced the plasma and brain (FR-II-60 and KPP-III-51) exposures relative to KRM-II-81. Oral administration of each compound produced dose-dependent increases in the latency for both clonic and tonic seizures and the lethality induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) in mice. Since KPP-III-34 produced the highest brain area under the curve (AUC) exposures, it was selected for further profiling. Oral administration of KPP-III-34 suppressed seizures in corneal-kindled mice, hippocampal paroxysmal discharges in mesial temporal lobe epileptic mice, and PTZ-induced convulsions in rats. Only transient sensorimotor impairment was observed in mice, and doses of KPP-III-34 up to 500 mg/kg did not produce impairment in rats. Molecular docking studies demonstrated that all compounds displayed a reduced propensity for binding to α 1His102 compared with the sedating compound alprazolam; the bromine-substituted KPP-III-34 achieved the least interaction. Overall, these findings document the oral bioavailability and anticonvulsant efficacy of three novel analogs of KRM-II-81 with reduced sedative effects. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: A new non-sedating compound, KRM-II-81, with reduced propensity for tolerance is moving into clinical development. Three new analogs were orally bioavailable, produced anticonvulsant effects in rodents, and displayed low sensorimotor impairment. KPP-III-34 demonstrated efficacy in models of pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Docking studies demonstrated a low propensity for compound binding to the α1His102 residue implicated in sedation. Thus, three additional structures have been added to the list of non-sedating imidazodiazepine anticonvulsants that could serve as backups in the clinical development of KRM-II-81.
