  • Patent number: 12049467
    Abstract: This disclosure features chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or an N-oxide thereof) of formula (I), which are positive allosteric modulators of one or more GABA-A receptors, e.g., which are peripherally restricted, positive allosteric modulators of one or more GABA-A receptors; e.g., which are positive allosteric modulators of one or more GABA-A receptors and which selectively target the peripheral nervous system and organs of the body, and which do not substantially pass through the blood-brain barrier. Said compounds are useful e.g., for the treatment of systemic diseases of the body, e.g., diseases in which modulation of one or more peripherally restricted GABA-A receptors is beneficial (e.g., diseases or disorders which are mediated by GABA-A neuronal activity. This disclosure also features pharmaceutical compositions containing the chemical entities described herein as well as methods of using same for the treatment of systemic diseases of the body.
