The first candidate PI-2014 was tested in healthy controls and subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD). As PI-2014 displayed off-target binding to monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A), a new lead with improved binding to Tau and decreased MAO-A binding was required. For compound optimization, Tau binding assays based on both human AD brain homogenate and Tau-paired helical filaments were employed. Furthermore, two MAO-A screening assays based on (1) human-recombinant MAO-A and (2) displacement of 2-fluoro-ethyl-harmine from mouse brain homogenate were employed. Removing the N-methyl group from the tricyclic core resulted in compounds displaying improved Tau binding. For the final round of optimization, the cyclic amine substituents were replaced by pyridine derivatives. PI-2620 (2-(2-fluoropyridin-4-yl)-9H-pyrrolo[2,3-b:4,5-c′]dipyridine) emerged as a best candidate displaying high Tau binding, low MAO-A binding, high brain uptake, and fast and complete brain washout. Furthermore, PI-2620 showed Tau binding on brain sections from corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy, and Pick's disease.

Aggregates of tau and beta amyloid (Aβ) plaques constitute the histopathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease and are prominent targets for novel therapeutics as well as for biomarkers for diagnostic in vivo imaging. In recent years much attention has been devoted to the discovery and development of new PET tracers to image tau aggregates in the living human brain. Access to a selective PET tracer to image and quantify tau aggregates represents a unique tool to support the development of any novel therapeutic agent targeting pathological forms of tau. The objective of the study described herein was to identify such a novel radiotracer. As a result of this work, we discovered three novel PET tracers (2-(4-[11C]methoxyphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-7-amine 7 ([11C]RO6924963), N-[11C]methyl-2-(3-methylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidin-7-amine 8 ([11C]RO6931643), and [18F]2-(6-fluoropyridin-3-yl)pyrrolo[2,3-b:4,5-c′]dipyridine 9 ([18F]RO6958948)) with high affinity for tau neurofibrillary tangles, excellent selectivity against Aβ plaques, and appropriate pharmacokinetic and metabolic properties in mice and non-human primates.

γ-Carbolines were obtained in a simple one-pot Fischer reaction starting from N-acetyl-3-bromo-4-piperidone hydrobromide and substituted arylhydrazine hydrochlorides in acidic media under microwave irradiation or by a thermal process. The optimization procedures are reported in detail, and the results from microwave processes are compared with conventional ones. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
