A hydrate is the compound complexed with water and a solvate is the compound complexed with a solvent, which may be an organic solvent or an inorganic solvent. A “stable” compound is a compound that can be prepared and isolated and whose structure and properties remain or can be caused to remain essentially unchanged for a period of time sufficient to allow use of the compound for the purposes described herein (e.g., therapeutic administration to a subject). The compounds of the present application are limited to stable compounds embraced by general Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and/or prodrug thereof.
[0091] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” means compatible with the treatment of subjects.
[0092] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a non-toxic solvent, dispersant, excipient, adjuvant or other material which is mixed with the active ingredient in order to permit the formation of a pharmaceutical composition, i.e., a dosage form capable of administration to a subject.
[0093] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” means either an acid addition salt or a base addition salt which is suitable for, or compatible with, the treatment of subjects.
[0094] An acid addition salt suitable for, or compatible with, the treatment of subjects is any non-toxic organic or inorganic acid addition salt of any basic compound.

After the manipulation or reaction is complete, the protecting group is removed under conditions that do not degrade or decompose the remaining portions of the molecule. The selection of a suitable protecting group can be made by a person skilled in the art. Many conventional protecting groups are known in the art, for example as described in “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry” McOmie, J. F. W. Ed., Plenum Press, 1973, in Greene, T. W. and Wuts, P. G. M., “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, John Wiley & Sons, 3.sup.rd Edition, 1999 and in Kocienski, P. Protecting Groups, 3rd Edition, 2003, Georg Thieme Verlag (The Americas).

[0097] The term “treating” or “treatment” as used herein and as is well understood in the art, means an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results, including clinical results. Beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to alleviation or amelioration of one or more symptoms or conditions, diminishment of extent of disease, stabilized (i.e. not worsening) state of disease, preventing spread of disease, delay or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, diminishment of the reoccurrence of disease and remission (whether partial or total), whether detectable or undetectable. “Treating” and “treatment” can also mean prolonging survival as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment. “Treating” and “treatment” as used herein also include prophylactic treatment. For example, a subject with early cancer can be treated to prevent progression, or alternatively a subject in remission can be treated with a compound or composition of the application to prevent recurrence. Treatment methods comprise administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the compounds of the application and optionally consist of a single administration, or alliteratively comprise a series of administrations.
[0098] As used herein, the term “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” means an amount of one or more compounds of the application that is effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary to achieve the desired result. For example, in the context of treating a disease, disorder or condition mediated or treated by agonism or activation of serotonergic receptors and downstream second messengers, an effective amount is an amount that, for example, increases said activation compared to the activation without administration of the one or more compounds.
[0099] “Palliating” a disease, disorder or condition means that the extent and/or undesirable clinical manifestations of a disease, disorder or condition are lessened and/or time course of the progression is slowed or lengthened, as compared to not treating the disorder.
[0100] The term “administered” as used herein means administration of a therapeutically effective amount of one or more compounds or compositions of the application to a cell, tissue, organ or subject.
[0101] The term “prevention” or “prophylaxis”, or synonym thereto, as used herein refers to a reduction in the risk or probability of a patient becoming afflicted with a disease, disorder or condition or manifesting a symptom associated with a disease, disorder or condition.
[0102] The “disease, disorder or condition” as used herein refers to a disease, disorder or condition treated or treatable by activation a serotonin receptor, for example 5-HT.sub.2A and particularly using a serotonin receptor agonist, such as one or more compounds of the application herein described.
[0103] The term “treating a disease, disorder or condition by activation of a serotonin receptor” as used herein means that the disease, disorder or condition to be treated is affected by, modulated by and/or has some biological basis, either direct or indirect, that includes serotonergic activity, in particular increases in serotonergic activity. These diseases respond favourably when serotonergic activity associated with the disease, disorder or condition is agonized by one or more of the compounds or compositions of the application.
[0104] The term “activation” as used herein includes agonism, partial agonist and positive allosteric modulation of a serotonin receptor.
[0105] The term “5-HT.sub.2A” as used herein mean the 5-HT.sub.2A receptor subtype of the 5-HT.sub.2 serotonin receptor.
[0106] The term “therapeutic agent” as used herein refers to any drug or active agent that has a pharmacological effect when administered to a subject.

[0301] In some embodiments, the compounds of the present application can also include tautomeric forms, such as keto-enol tautomers and the like. Tautomeric forms can be in equilibrium or sterically locked into one form by appropriate substitution. It is intended that any tautomeric forms which the compounds form, as well as mixtures thereof, are included within the scope of the present application.
[0302] The compounds of the present application may further exist in varying polymorphic forms and it is contemplated that any polymorphs, or mixtures thereof, which form are included within the scope of the present application.
[0303] The compounds of the present application may further be radiolabeled and accordingly all radiolabeled versions of the compounds of the application are included within the scope of the present application. The compounds of the application also include those in which one or more radioactive atoms are incorporated within their structure.
[0304] The term “compound” refers to the compound and, in certain embodiments, to the extent they are stable, any hydrate or solvate thereof. A hydrate is the compound complexed with water, and a solvate is the compound complexed with a solvent, which may be an organic solvent or an inorganic solvent. A “stable” compound is a compound that can be prepared and isolated and whose structure and properties remain or can be caused to remain essentially unchanged for a period of time sufficient to allow use of the compound for the purposes described herein (e.g., therapeutic administration to a subject). The compounds of the present invention are limited to stable compounds embraced by general formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
[0305] As indicated above, the compounds of the present invention can be employed in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Those skilled in the art will recognize those instances in which the compounds of the invention may form salts. Examples of such compounds are described herein by reference to possible salts. Such reference is for illustration only. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be used with compounds for treating patients. Non pharmaceutical salts may, however, be useful in the preparation of intermediate compounds. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a salt (including an inner salt such as a zwitterion) that possesses effectiveness similar to the parent compound and that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable (e.g, is neither toxic nor otherwise deleterious to the recipient thereof). Thus, an embodiment of the invention provides pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention. The term “salt(s)”, as employed herein, denotes any of the following: acidic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic acids, as well as basic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic bases. Salts of compounds of the invention may be formed by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art, for example, by reacting a compound of the invention with an amount of acid or base, such as an equivalent amount, in a medium such as one in which the salt precipitates or in aqueous medium followed by lyophilization.
[0306] Exemplary acid addition salts include acetates, ascorbates, benzoates, benzenesulfonates, bisulfates, borates, butyrates, citrates, camphorates, camphorsulfonates, fumarates, hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, hydroiodides, lactates, maleates, methanesulfonates (“mesylates”), naphthalenesulfonates, nitrates, oxalates, phosphates, propionates, salicylates, succinates, sulfates, tartarates, thiocyanates, toluenesulfonates (also known as tosylates) and the like. Suitable salts include acid addition salts that may, for example, be formed by mixing a solution of a compound with a solution of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, or benzoic acid. Additionally, acids that are generally considered suitable for the formation of pharmaceutically useful salts from basic pharmaceutical compounds are discussed, for example, by P. Stahl et al, Camille G. (eds.), and Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts. Properties, Selection and Use. (2002) Zurich: Wiley V C H; S. Berge et al, Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences 1977 66(1) 1-19; P. Gould, International J. of Pharmaceutics (1986) 33 201-217; Anderson et al, The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry (1996), Academic Press, New York; and in The Orange Book (Food & Drug Administration, Washington, D.C. on their website). These disclosures are incorporated herein by reference thereto.
[0307] Exemplary basic salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts such as sodium, lithium, and potassium salts, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases (for example, organic amines) such as dicyclohexylamine, abutyl amine, choline, and salts with amino acids such as arginine, lysine and the like. Basic nitrogen containing groups may be quartemized with agents such as lower alkyl halides (e.g., methyl, ethyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e.g., dimethyl, diethyl, and dibutyl sulfates), long chain halides (e.g., decyl, lauryl, and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), aralkyl halides (e.g., benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others. Compounds carrying an acidic moiety can be mixed with suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts to provide, for example, alkali metal salts (e.g., sodium or potassium salts), alkaline earth metal salts (e.g., calcium or magnesium salts), and salts formed with suitable organic ligands such as quaternary ammonium salts. Also, in the case of an acid (—COOH) or alcohol group being present, pharmaceutically acceptable esters can be employed to modify the solubility or hydrolysis characteristics of the compound.
[0308] All such acid salts and base salts are intended to be pharmaceutically acceptable salts within the scope of the invention and all acid and base salts are considered equivalent to the free forms of the corresponding compounds for purposes of the invention.
[0309] In addition, when a compound of the invention contains both a basic moiety, such as, but not limited to an aliphatic primary, secondary, tertiary or cyclic amine, an aromatic or heteroaryl amine, pyridine or imidazole, and an acidic moiety, such as, but not limited to tetrazole or carboxylic acid, zwitterions (“inner salts”) may be formed and are included within the terms “salt(s)” as used herein. It is understood that certain compounds of the invention may exist in zwitterionic form, having both anionic and cationic centers within the same compound and a net neutral charge. Such zwitterions are included within the invention.
[0310] III. Compositions
[0311] The compounds of the present application are suitably formulated in a conventional manner into compositions using one or more carriers. Accordingly, the present application also includes a composition comprising one or more compounds of the application and a carrier. The compounds of the application are suitably formulated into pharmaceutical compositions for administration to subjects in a biologically compatible form suitable for administration in vivo. Accordingly, the present application further includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more compounds of the application and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In embodiments of the application the pharmaceutical compositions are used in the treatment of any of the diseases, disorders or conditions described herein.
[0312] The compounds of the application are administered to a subject in a variety of forms depending on the selected route of administration, as will be understood by those skilled in the art. For example, a compound of the application is administered by oral, inhalation, parenteral, buccal, sublingual, insufflation, epidurally, nasal, rectal, vaginal, patch, pump, minipump, topical or transdermal administration and the pharmaceutical compositions formulated accordingly. In some embodiments, administration is by means of a pump for periodic or continuous delivery. Conventional procedures and ingredients for the selection and preparation of suitable compositions are described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (2000-20th edition) and in The United States Pharmacopeia: The National Formulary (USP 24 NF19) published in 1999.
[0313] Parenteral administration includes systemic delivery routes other than the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and includes, for example intravenous, intra-arterial, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, transepithelial, nasal, intrapulmonary (for example, by use of an aerosol), intrathecal, rectal and topical (including the use of a patch or other transdermal delivery device) modes of administration. Parenteral administration may be by continuous infusion over a selected period of time.
[0314] In some embodiments, a compound of the application is orally administered, for example, with an inert diluent or with an assimilable edible carrier, or it is enclosed in hard or soft shell gelatin capsules, or it is compressed into tablets, or it is incorporated directly with the food of the diet. In some embodiments, the compound is incorporated with excipient and used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, caplets, pellets, granules, lozenges, chewing gum, powders, syrups, elixirs, wafers, aqueous solutions and suspensions and the like. In the case of tablets, carriers that are used include lactose, com starch, sodium citrate and salts of phosphoric acid. Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include binding agents (e.g., pregelatinized maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose); fillers (e.g., lactose, microcrystalline cellulose or calcium phosphate); lubricants (e.g., magnesium stearate, talc or silica); disintegrants (e.g., potato starch or sodium starch glycolate); or wetting agents (e.g., sodium lauryl sulphate), or solvents (e.g. medium chain triglycerides, ethanol, water). In embodiments, the tablets are coated by methods well known in the art. In the case of tablets, capsules, caplets, pellets or granules for oral administration, pH sensitive enteric coatings, such as Eudragits™ designed to control the release of active ingredients are optionally used. Oral dosage forms also include modified release, for example immediate release and timed-release, formulations. Examples of modified-release formulations include, for example, sustained-release (SR), extended-release (ER, XR, or XL), time-release or timed-release, controlled-release (CR), or continuous-release (CR or Contin), employed, for example, in the form of a coated tablet, an osmotic delivery device, a coated capsule, a microencapsulated microsphere, an agglomerated particle, e.g., as of molecular sieving type particles, or, a fine hollow permeable fiber bundle, or chopped hollow permeable fibers, agglomerated or held in a fibrous packet. Timed-release compositions are formulated, for example as liposomes or those wherein the active compound is protected with differentially degradable coatings, such as by microencapsulation, multiple coatings, etc. Liposome delivery systems include, for example, small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles and multilamellar vesicles. In some embodiments, liposomes are formed from a variety of phospholipids, such as cholesterol, stearylamine or phosphatidylcholines. For oral administration in a capsule form, useful carriers, solvents or diluents include lactose, medium chain triglycerides, ethanol and dried com starch.
[0315] In some embodiments, liquid preparations for oral administration take the form of, for example, solutions, syrups or suspensions, or they are suitably presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. When aqueous suspensions and/or emulsions are administered orally, the compound of the application is suitably suspended or dissolved in an oily phase that is combined with emulsifying and/or suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening and/or flavoring and/or coloring agents are added. Such liquid preparations for oral administration are prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as suspending agents (e.g., sorbitol syrup, methyl cellulose or hydrogenated edible fats); emulsifying agents (e.g., lecithin or acacia); non-aqueous vehicles (e.g., medium chain triglycerides, almond oil, oily esters or ethyl alcohol); and preservatives (e.g., methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid). Useful diluents include lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols.
[0316] It is also possible to freeze-dry the compounds of the application and use the lyophilizates obtained, for example, for the preparation of products for injection.
[0317] In some embodiments, a compound of the application is administered parenterally. For example, solutions of a compound of the application are prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. In some embodiments, dispersions are prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, DMSO and mixtures thereof with or without alcohol and in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms. A person skilled in the art would know how to prepare suitable formulations. For parenteral administration, sterile solutions of the compounds of the application are usually prepared and the pH's of the solutions are suitably adjusted and buffered. For intravenous use, the total concentration of solutes should be controlled to render the preparation isotonic. For ocular administration, ointments or droppable liquids are delivered, for example, by ocular delivery systems known to the art such as applicators or eye droppers. In some embodiments, such compositions include mucomimetics such as hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or polyvinyl alcohol, preservatives such as sorbic acid, EDTA or benzyl chromium chloride and the usual quantities of diluents or carriers. For pulmonary administration, diluents or carriers will be selected to be appropriate to allow the formation of an aerosol.
[0318] In some embodiments, a compound of the application is formulated for parenteral administration by injection, including using conventional catheterization techniques or infusion. Formulations for injection are, for example, presented in unit dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. In some embodiments, the compositions take such forms as sterile suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles and contain formulating agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. Alternatively, the compounds of the application are suitably in a sterile powder form for reconstitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile pyrogen-free water, before use.
[0319] In some embodiments, compositions for nasal administration are conveniently formulated as aerosols, drops, gels and powders. For intranasal administration or administration by inhalation, the compounds of the application are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution, dry powder formulation or suspension from a pump spray container that is squeezed or pumped by the patient or as an aerosol spray presentation from a pressurized container or a nebulizer. Aerosol formulations typically comprise a solution or fine suspension of the active substance in a physiologically acceptable aqueous or non-aqueous solvent and are usually presented in single or multidose quantities in sterile form in a sealed container, which, for example, take the form of a cartridge or refill for use with an atomising device. Alternatively, the sealed container is a unitary dispensing device such as a single dose nasal inhaler or an aerosol dispenser fitted with a metering valve which is intended for disposal after use. Where the dosage form comprises an aerosol dispenser, it will contain a propellant which is, for example, a compressed gas such as compressed air or an organic propellant such as fluorochlorohydrocarbon. Suitable propellants include but are not limited to dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, heptafluoroalkanes, carbon dioxide or another suitable gas. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit is suitably determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. In some embodiments, the pressurized container or nebulizer contains a solution or suspension of the active compound. Capsules and cartridges (made, for example, from gelatin) for use in an inhaler or insufflator are, for example, formulated containing a powder mix of a compound of the application and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch. The aerosol dosage forms can also take the form of a pump-atomizer.
[0320] Compositions suitable for buccal or sublingual administration include tablets, lozenges and pastilles, wherein a compound of the application is formulated with a carrier such as sugar, acacia, tragacanth, or gelatin and glycerine. Compositions for rectal administration are conveniently in the form of suppositories containing a conventional suppository base such as cocoa butter.
[0321] Suppository forms of the compounds of the application are useful for vaginal, urethral and rectal administrations. Such suppositories will generally be constructed of a mixture of substances that is solid at room temperature but melts at body temperature. The substances commonly used to create such vehicles include but are not limited to theobroma oil (also known as cocoa butter), glycerinated gelatin, other glycerides, hydrogenated vegetable oils, mixtures of polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol. See, for example: Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 16th Ed., Mack Publishing, Easton, Pa., 1980, pp. 1530-1533 for further discussion of suppository dosage forms.
[0322] In some embodiments a compound of the application is coupled with soluble polymers as targetable drug carriers. Such polymers include, for example, polyvinylpyrrolidone, pyran copolymer, polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide-phenol, polyhydroxy-ethylaspartamide-phenol, or polyethyleneoxide-polylysine substituted with palmitoyl residues. Furthermore, in some embodiments, a compound of the application is coupled to a class of biodegradable polymers useful in achieving controlled release of a drug, for example, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, copolymers of polylactic and polyglycolic acid, polyepsilon caprolactone, polyhydroxy butyric acid, polyorthoesters, polyacetals, polydihydropyrans, polycyanoacrylates and crosslinked or amphipathic block copolymers of hydrogels.
[0323] A compound of the application including pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and/or prodrugs thereof is suitably used on their own but will generally be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition in which the one or more compounds of the application (the active ingredient) is in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Depending on the mode of administration, the pharmaceutical composition will comprise from about 0.05 wt % to about 99 wt % or about 0.10 wt % to about 70 wt %, of the active ingredient and from about 1 wt % to about 99.95 wt % or about 30 wt % to about 99.90 wt % of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, all percentages by weight being based on the total composition.
[0324] In some embodiments, the compounds of the application including pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and/or prodrugs thereof are used are administered in a composition comprising an additional therapeutic agent. Therefore the present application also includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising one of more compounds of the application, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and/or prodrugs thereof and an additional therapeutic agent, and optionally one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. In some embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent is another known agent useful for treatment of a disease, disorder or condition by activation of a serotonin receptor, for example those listed in the Methods and Uses section below. In some embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent is a psychoactive drug.
[0325] In the above, the term “a compound” also includes embodiments wherein one or more compounds are referenced.

When used in combination with other known agents useful in treating diseases, disorders by activation of a serotonin receptor, it is an embodiment that a compound of the application is administered contemporaneously with those agents. As used herein, “contemporaneous administration” of two substances to a subject means providing each of the two substances so that they are both active in the individual at the same time. The exact details of the administration will depend on the pharmacokinetics of the two substances in the presence of each other and can include administering the two substances within a few hours of each other, or even administering one substance within 24 hours of administration of the other, if the pharmacokinetics are suitable. Design of suitable dosing regimens is routine for one skilled in the art. In particular embodiments, two substances will be administered substantially simultaneously, i.e., within minutes of each other, or in a single composition that contains both substances. It is a further embodiment of the present application that a combination of agents is administered to a subject in a non-contemporaneous fashion. In some embodiments, a compound of the present application is administered with another therapeutic agent simultaneously or sequentially in separate unit dosage forms or together in a single unit dosage form. Accordingly, the present application provides a single unit dosage form comprising one or more compounds of the application, an additional therapeutic agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0367] The dosage of a compound of the application varies depending on many factors such as the pharmacodynamic properties of the compound, the mode of administration, the age, health and weight of the recipient, the nature and extent of the symptoms, the frequency of the treatment and the type of concurrent treatment, if any and the clearance rate of the compound in the subject to be treated. One of skill in the art can determine the appropriate dosage based on the above factors. In some embodiments, one or more compounds of the application are administered initially in a suitable dosage that is adjusted as required, depending on the clinical response. Dosages will generally be selected to maintain a serum level of the one or more compounds of the application from about 0.01 μg/cc to about 1000 μg/cc, or about 0.1 μg/cc to about 100 μg/cc. As a representative example, oral dosages of one or more compounds of the application will range between about 10 μg per day to about 1000 mg per day for an adult, suitably about 10 μg per day to about 500 mg per day, more suitably about 10 μg per day to about 200 mg per day. For parenteral administration, a representative amount is from about 0.0001 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg, about 0.0001 mg/kg to about 1 mg/kg, about 0.01 mg/kg to about 0.1 mg/kg or about 0.0001 mg/kg to about 0.01 mg/kg will be administered. For oral administration, a representative amount is from about 0.001 μg/kg to about 10 mg/kg, about 0.1 μg/kg to about 10 mg/kg, about 0.01 μg/kg to about 1 mg/kg or about 0.1 μg/kg to about 1 mg/kg. For administration in suppository form, a representative amount is from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg or about 0.1 mg/kg to about 1 mg/kg. In some embodiments of the application, compositions are formulated for oral administration and the one or more compounds are suitably in the form of tablets containing 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 60.0, 70.0, 75.0, 80.0, 90.0, 100.0, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950 or 1000 mg of active ingredient (one or more compounds of the application) per tablet. In some embodiments of the application the one or more compounds of the application are administered in a single daily, weekly or monthly dose or the total daily dose is divided into two, three or four daily doses.
[0368] In some embodiments, the compounds of the application are used or administered in an effective amount which comprises administration of doses or dosage regimens that are devoid of clinically meaningful psychedelic/psychotomimetic actions.

Human, Rat and Mouse Liver Microsomes Stability
Objective
[0517] The objective of this study was to estimate in vitro metabolic stability of I-12 in pooled human, male rat and male mouse liver microsomes. The concentrations of parent compounds in reaction systems were evaluated by LC-MS/MS for estimating the stability in pooled human, male rat and male mouse liver microsomes. The in vitro intrinsic clearances of test compounds were determined as well.
Protocol
[0518] A master solution in the “Incubation Plate” containing phosphate buffer, ultra-pure H.sub.2O, MgCl.sub.2 solution and liver microsomes was made according to Table-3. The mixture was pre-warmed at 37° C. water bath for 5 minutes.

[0519] 40 μL of 10 mM NADPH solution was added to each well. The final concentration of NADPH was 1 mM. The negative control samples were prepared by replacing NADPH with 40 μL of ultra-pure H.sub.2O. Samples were prepared in duplicate. Negative controls were prepared in singlet.
[0520] The reaction was started with the addition of 4 μL of 200 μM exemplary test compounds of the application or control compounds to each master solution to get the final concentration of 2 μM. This study was performed in duplicate.
[0521] Aliquots of 50 μL were taken from the reaction solution at 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes. The reaction solutions were stopped by the addition of 4 volumes of cold methanol with IS (100 nM alprazolam, 200 nM imipramine, 200 nM labetalol and 2 μM ketoprofen). Samples were centrifuged at 3,220 g for 40 minutes. Aliquot of 90 μL of the supernatant was mixed with 90 μL of ultra-pure H.sub.2O and then was used for LC-MS/MS analysis.
[0522] LC/MS analysis was performed for all samples from this study using a Shimadzu liquid chromatograph separation system equipped with degasser DGU-20A5R; solvent delivery unit LC-30AD; system controller SIL-30AC; column oven CTO-30A; CTC Analytics HTC PAL System;. Mass spectrometric analysis was performed using an Triple Quad# 5500 instrument.
[0523] All calculations were carried out using Microsoft Excel. Peak area ratios of test compound to internal standard (listed in the below table) were determined from extracted ion chromatograms.
[0524] All calculations were carried out using Microsoft Excel. Peak areas were determined from extracted ion chromatograms. The slope value, k, was determined by linear regression of the natural logarithm of the remaining percentage of the parent drug vs. incubation time curve.
[0525] The in vitro half-life (in vitro t½) was determined from the slope value:
in vitro t½=−(0.693/k)
[0526] Conversion of the in vitro t½ (min) into the in vitro intrinsic clearance (in vitro CLint, in μL/min/mg proteins) was done using the following equation (mean of duplicate determinations):
For the exemplary compounds of the application or control compound that showed an initial fast disappearance followed by a slow disappearance, only the time points that were within the initial rate were included in the calculation.
Results & Discussion
[0527] Human, rat and mouse liver microsomes contain a wide variety of drug metabolizing enzymes and are commonly used to support in vitro ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) studies. These microsomes are used to examine the potential first-pass metabolism by-products of orally administered drugs. Exemplary compounds of the application were evaluated for their stability in human, rat and mouse liver microsomes. A majority of the exemplary compounds of the application in three species, human, rat and mouse liver microsomes were recovered within a 60 minute time period indicating that the compounds were not rapidly cleared (see Table 4 for Exemplary compounds of Formula I).

Psychedelic-Like Effect of Exemplary Compounds of Formula I
[0575] The effect of different doses of exemplary compound I-28 of Formula I and its active metabolite were evaluated on head-twitch response (HTR) as a behavior-based model of psychedelic activity.
[0576] 1. Protocols
Mouse Head Twitch
[0577] Male, C57BL/6J mice (body weight range 20-30 g) were dosed with the appropriate dose of test article, and following a 1-minute pre-treatment time, placed in individual observation chambers. Animals were visually assessed for the incidence head twitches continuously over a 1hr period. Head twitches were defined as a rapid jerk of the head which was not elicited by an external tactile stimulus (Come and Pickering, Psychopharmacologia, 1967, 11(1): 65-78). Each head twitch was individually counted by a trained observer, and the data expressed as the mean±SEM of 6-10 mice per group. Mice were used in a single experiment only.
Rat Behavioral Test
[0578] Male, Sprague-Dawley rats (body weight range 250-400 g) were dosed with the appropriate dose of test article and following a 1-minute pre-treatment time, placed in locomotor activity boxes (dimensions 17″ W×17″ L×12″ H) and continuously monitored for a 1 hr period with data collected into 10 minute time bins. Animals were visually assessed for overt behavioral signs, including behaviors characteristic of 5-HT2A receptor activation (wet dog shakes, back muscle contractions), 5-HT2A receptor activation (yawning, penile grooming) and 5-HT1A behaviors (forepaw treading, hindlimb abduction) (Halberzettl et al, Behav Brain Res. 256: 328-345, 2013). Additional behavioral and somatic signs characteristic of 5-HT syndrome (e.g. tremor, salivation, flat body posture, core body temperature change) were also measured. Simultaneously, the spontaneous activity of the rats was measured using an automated tracking system (Med Associates, VT, USA). Activity data collected included total distance traveled, rearing counts and ambulatory episodes. All data were expressed as the mean±SEM of 6-10 rats per group.
Drug Discrimination in the Rat
[0579] Male Sprague-Dawley rats were initially food restricted by presentation of 18-20g food at day end (single housing). After 7 days acclimatisation to the food restriction procedure, they were trained daily to lever press for food (45 mg Bioserve pellet) in standard 2-lever operant conditioning chambers controlled by Med-PC software over a period of 1 week (Med. Associates Ins., St. Albans, Vt.). The rats were trained to lever press for food to an FR10 value (i.e 10 lever presses for a single food reward). Once stable food responding was acquired to both response levers, discrimination training began. Over a period of 20-50 training sessions, the rats were trained to associate one lever to a psilocybin training dose of 1 mg/kg SC, and the second lever to a neutral stimulus (saline, SC) (Winter et al, Pharmacol Biochem Behav. 87(4): 472-480, 2007). Training sessions lasted 30-min or until the delivery of 50 pellets and continued until the animals attained appropriate stimulus control (defined as six consecutive sessions where animals made no more than 16 lever presses before the delivery of the first reward, and at least 95% total responses on the appropriate lever). The rats continued to receive daily food ration in their home cage at day end.
[0580] Once trained, tests of substitution were conducted. On test days, both levers were designated active, i.e., every 10th response on either lever resulted in delivery of a food pellet. Test sessions continued until 50 pellets had been obtained or 30 min had elapsed. During these sessions response rate was also measured.
