The present invention provides a compound having a cholinergic muscarinic M1 receptor positive allosteric modulator activity and useful as an agent for the prophylaxis or treatment of Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, pain, sleep disorder, Parkinson's disease dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, and the like.

The present invention relates to a compound represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof.

##STR00001##

wherein each symbol is as described in the specification, or a salt thereof.

The invention relates to methods for decreasing adverse effects associated with solriamfetol ([R]-2-amino-3-phenylpropylcarbamate) therapy in subjects with impaired renal function. In particular, the invention provides an optimized dose escalation scheme for subjects with moderate renal impairment which results in the subjects having increased tolerance to adverse effects associated with the administration of solriamfetol. The invention also provides adjusted dosing for safe therapeutic use of solriamfetol in subjects having severe renal impairment.

A series of phenelzine analogs comprising a phenelzine scaffold linked to an aromatic moiety and their use as inhibitors of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) and/or one or more histone deacetylases (HDACs) is provided. The presently disclosed phenelzine analogs exhibit potency and selectivity for LSD1 versus MAO and LSD2 enzymes and exhibit bulk, as well as, gene specific histone methylation changes, anti-proliferative activity in several cancer cell lines, and neuroprotection in response to oxidative stress. Accordingly, the presently disclosed phenelzine analogs can be used to treat diseases, conditions, or disorders related to LSD1 and/or HDACs, including, but not limited to, cancers and neurodegenerative diseases.
