Phosphodiesterase 2A (PDE2A) inhibitors have been reported to demonstrate in vivo activity in preclinical models of cognition. To more fully explore the biology of PDE2A inhibition, we sought to identify potent PDE2A inhibitors with improved brain penetration as compared to current literature compounds. Applying estimated human dose calculations while simultaneously leveraging synthetically enabled chemistry and structure-based drug design has resulted in a highly potent, selective, brain penetrant compound 71 (PF-05085727) that effects in vivo biochemical changes commensurate with PDE2A inhibition along with behavioral and electrophysiological reversal of the effects of NMDA antagonists in rodents. This data supports the ability of PDE2A inhibitors to potentiate NMDA signaling and their further development for clinical cognition indications.

Page/Page column 114, (2010/02/06)
The present invention provides an agent for preventing or treating neuropathy having superior action and low toxicity. This agent comprises a compound represented by the formula:wherein ring A is a 5-membered aromatic heterocycle containing 2 or more nitrogen atoms, which may further have substituent(s);B is an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group or an optionally substituted heterocyclic group;X is a divalent acyclic hydrocarbon group;Z is -O-, -S-, -NR2-, -CONR2- or -NR2CO- (R2 is a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl group);Y is a bond or a divalent acyclic hydrocarbon group;R1 is an optionally substituted cyclic group, an optionally substituted amino group or an optionally substituted acyl group, provided that when the 5-membered aromatic heterocycle represented by ring A is imidazole, then Z should not be -O-, or a salt thereof.
