Abstract:
This invention relates to substituted pyrimidinone and pyrimidithione derivatives that bind with high affifnity to CRF1 receptors, including human CRF1 receptors. This invention also relates to methods of using the compounds of the invention to treat a disorder or condition, the treatment of which can be effected or facilitated by antagonizing a CRF receptor, such as CNS disorders or diseases, particularly anxiety disorders, and depression and stress related disorders.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compounds of Formula I, or a stereoisomer thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a prodrug thereof. The compounds of the inventions are CRF1 receptor antagonists. Compounds of the invention are useful for treating, in a warm-blooded animal, particularly a mammal, and more particularly a human, various disorders that are associated with CRF or CRF1 receptors, or disorders the treatment of which can be effected or facilitated by antagonizing CRF1 receptors.
