This invention is in the field of medicinal chemistry. In particular, the invention relates to a new class of small-molecules having a tetrahydroindazole structure which function as modulators (e.g., activators or inhibitors) of sigma-1 and/or sigma-2 receptors, and their use as therapeutics for the treatment of cancer and other diseases (e.g., neurological conditions) characterized with sigma-1 and/or sigma-2 receptor activity.
Provided herein are compounds, compositions thereof and uses therewith for treating spinal muscular atrophy. In a specific embodiment, provided herein are compounds of a form that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN2 gene. In another specific embodiment, provided herein are compounds of a form that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN1 gene. In yet another embodiment, provided herein are compounds of a form that may be used to modulate the inclusion of exon 7 of SMN1 and SMN2 into mRNA that is transcribed from the SMN1 and SMN2 genes, respectively.
