Abstract: Disclosed are methods of synthesis and/or purification of certain 3,7-diamino-phenothiazin-5-ium compounds (“diaminophenothiazinium compounds”) including Methylthioninium Chloride (MTC) (Methylene Blue), and the resulting high purity characterized by a purity greater than 98%, and very low levels of heavy metals and organic impurities Azure A, B, C and MVB. Also disclosed are methods of treatment of a tauopathy or methemoglobinemia in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of the high-purity diaminophenothiazinium compound.

Abstract: Described are methods of preparing reduced 3,7-diamino-10H-phenothiazine (DAPTZ) compounds of formula: wherein: R1 and R9 are independently selected from: —H; C1-4alkyl; C2-4alkenyl; and halogenated C1-4alkyl; each of R3NA and R3NB is independently selected from: —H; C1-4alkyl; C2-4alkenyl; and halogenated C1-4alkyl; each of R7NA and R7NB is independently selected from: —H; C1-4alkyl; C2-4alkenyl; and halogenated C1-4alkyl; each of HX1 and HX2 is independently a protic acid; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, and hydrates thereof. These methods are particularly useful for producing stable reduced forms, and with high purity. The stability and purity are especially relevant for pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of disease. The compounds are useful for treatment of e.g. tauopathies, such as Alzheimer's disease, and also as prodrugs for the corresponding oxidized thioninium drugs.

Abstract: The invention provides novel regimens for treatment of neurodegenerative disorders utilising methylthioninium (MT)-containing compounds. The regimens are based on novel findings in relation to the dosage of MT compounds, and their interaction with symptomatic treatments based on modulation of a acetylcholinesterase levels.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of treating COVID-19 in a subject using methylthioninium compounds.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of alleviating hypoxemia in a subject through oral administration of a methylthioninium compound.

Abstract: The invention provides novel dosing regimens for Leuco-Methylthioninium (LMT) compounds which maximise the proportion of subjects in which the MT concentration will exceed concentrations in which therapeutic efficacy in relation to treatment of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and rontotemporal dementias can be achieved, while maintaining a desirable clinical profile. Also provided are LMT-containing dosage units and other compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods of treatment of Alzheimer's Disease or Mild Cognitive Impairment which are adapted to avoid negative interactions between combinations of therapeutics. In particular there are disclosed such methods of treatment in which the order of therapeutics is actively controlled to mitigate homeostatic downregulation prior to administration of active, for example disease modifying, therapeutic agents. In certain embodiments therapy with symptomatic treatments (such as modifiers of the activity of acetylcholine or glutamate neurotransmitters) may subsequently be combined with the disease modifying or other active treatment. The invention also applies the findings in relation to homeostatic downregulation to novel methods of clinical trial design.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods and materials for treating synaptopathies, based on the use of Leu-co-methylthioninium acid salts, which are disclosed herein to increase synaptophysin levels in various brain regions at therapeutically relevant doses both in animal models of neurodegenerative disease, and in normal animals.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to nootropic compositions comprising Leuco-methylthioninium acid salts and their uses for cognitive enhancement in normal (non-demented) individuals.
