- Here we describe for the first time the distinctive pharmacological profile for (35)-3-(2,3-difluorophenyI)-3-nnethoxypyrrolidine (IRL752), a new phenyl-pyrrolidine derivative with regioselective central nervous system transmission-enhancing properties. IRL752 (3.7-150 mu mol/kg, s.c.) was characterized through extensive in vivo studies using behavioral, tissue neurochemical, and gene expression as well as microdialysis methods. Behaviorally, the compound normalized tetrabenazine-induced hypo-activity, whereas it was unable to stimulate basal locomotion in normal animals or either accentuate or reverse hyperactivity induced by amphetamine or MK-801. IRL752 induced but minor changes in monoaminergic tissue neurochemistry across noradrenaline (NA)- and dopamine (DA)-dominated brain regions. The expression of neuronal activity-, plasticity-, and cognition-related immediate early genes (IEGs), however, increased by 1.5-fold to 2-fold. Furthermore, IRL752 dose-dependently enhanced cortical catecholamine dialysate output to 600%-750% above baseline, whereas striatal DA remained unaltered, and NA rose to similar to 250%; cortical and hippocampal dialysate acetylcholine (ACh) increased to similar to 250% and 190% above corresponding baseline, respectively. In line with this cortically preferential transmission-promoting action, the drug was also procognitive in the novel object recognition and reversal learning tests. In vitro neurotarget affinity and functional data coupled to drug exposure support the hypothesis that 5-hydroxytryptannine 7 receptor and alpha 2(C)-adrenoceptor antagonism are key contributors to the in vivo efficacy and original profile of IRL752. The cortical-preferring facilitatory impact on cate-cholamine (and ACh) neurotransmission, along with effects on IEG expression and cognition-enhancing features, are in line with the potential clinical usefulness of IRL752 in conditions wherein these aspects may be dysregulated, such as in axial motor and cognitive deficits in Parkinson disease. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT This report describes the distinctive preclinical profile of (3S)3-(2,3-difluorophenyI)-3-nnethoxypyrrolidine (IRL752). Its in vivo neurochemical, behavioral, microdialysis, and gene expression properties are consistent with a cortically regioselective facilitatory impact on catecholaminergic and cholinergic neurotransmission accompanied by cognitive impairment-reversing features. The pharmacological characteristics of IRL752 are in line with the clinical usefulness of IRL752 in conditions wherein these aspects may be dysregulated, such as in axial motor and cognitive deficits in Parkinson disease.

- Background IRL752 is a novel small-molecule compound that acts to regioselectively enhance norepinephrine, dopamine, and acetylcholine neurotransmission in the cerebral cortex. Objective The primary objective of the trial was to investigate the safety and tolerability of IRL752 in patients with Parkinson's disease and dementia. Methods Patients with Parkinson's disease and dementia were randomized to IRL752 or placebo treatment (3:1 ratio) for 28 days. The study drug was given as an adjunct treatment to the patients' regular stable antiparkinsonian medication. Dosing was individually titrated for 14 days after which the dose was kept stable for an additional 14 days. Results A total of 32 patients were randomized to treatment, and 29 patients completed the 4-week treatment. Adverse events were generally mild and transient and were mostly reported during the dose titration phase. There were 2 serious adverse events, and none of them were related to the experimental treatment. The average dose achieved in the stable dose phase was 600 mg daily, yielding a 2-hour postdose plasma concentration of about 4 mu M on day 28. Exploratory assessment of secondary outcomes indicated efficacy for symptoms and signs known to be poorly responsive to levodopa. Conclusions IRL752 appears to be safe and well tolerated for a 4-week treatment in patients with Parkinson's disease and dementia. (c) 2020 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society

Interactions between monoamines, glutamate, and GABA in schizophrenia: new evidence
- 2001

Ingår i: Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. - 0362-1642. ; 41, s. 237-60

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- In spite of its proven heuristic value, the dopamine hypothesis of schizophrenia is now yielding to a multifactorial view, in which the other monoamines as well as glutamate and GABA are included, with a focus on neurotransmitter interactions in complex neurocircuits. The primary lesion(s) in schizophrenia does not necessarily involve any of these neurotransmitters directly but could deal with a more general defect, such as a faulty connectivity of developmental origin. Nevertheless, a precise identification of neurotransmitter aberrations in schizophrenia will probably provide clues for a better understanding of the disease and for the development of new treatment and prevention strategies.

- IRL790 is a novel compound with psychomotor stabilizing properties primarily targeting the dopamine D3 receptor. IRL790 is developed as an experimental treatment for levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID), impulse control disorder, and psychosis in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The primary objective was to investigate the safety and tolerability of IRL790 in PD patients with LID in a randomized controlled trial. PD patients with peak-dose dyskinesia were randomized to placebo or IRL790 treatment (1:3 ratio) for 4 weeks. Study drug was given as an adjunct treatment to the patients’ regular stable antiparkinsonian medication. Dosing was individually titrated for 14 days, whereafter dosing was kept stable for an additional 14 days. Fifteen patients were randomized to treatment and 13 patients completed the 4-week treatment. Adverse events were mostly reported during the titration phase of the trial. They were mainly central nervous system related and could be mitigated by dose adjustments. There were no serious adverse events. There were no clinically significant changes in vital signs, electrocardiogram, and laboratory parameters due to the treatment. The average dose in the stable dose phase was 18 mg daily, yielding a 2-h post-dose plasma concentration of average 229 nM on day 28. Assessments for motor function showed a numeric reduction in dyskinesia. It is concluded that IRL790 can be safely administered to patients with advanced PD. The results will be of guidance for the design of phase 2 studies.
