The present invention provides novel compounds of Formula I and salts,
hydrates, solvates, complexes, and prodrugs thereof. The present
invention further provides methods for synthesizing compounds of Formula
I. The invention additionally provides pharmaceutical compositions
comprising the compounds of Formula I and methods of using the
pharmaceutical compositions of Formula I to treat and prevent disorders
and diseases associated with the RyR receptors that regulate calcium
channel functioning in cells. Such disorders and diseases include, by way
of example only, cardiac disorders and diseases, skeletal muscular
disorders and diseases, cognitive disorders and diseases, malignant
hyperthermia, diabetes, and sudden infant death syndrome. Cardiac
disorder and diseases include, but are not limited to, irregular
heartbeat disorders and diseases; exercise-induced irregular heartbeat
disorders and diseases; sudden cardiac death; exercise-induced sudden
cardiac death; congestive heart failure; chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease; and high blood pressure. Irregular heartbeat disorders and
diseases include and exercise-induced irregular heartbeat disorders and
diseases include, but are not limited to, atrial and ventricular
arrhythmia; atrial and ventricular fibrillation; atrial and ventricular
tachyarrhythmia; atrial and ventricular tachycardia; catecholaminergic
polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT); and exercise-induced variants
thereof. Skeletal muscular disorder and diseases include, but are not
limited to, skeletal muscle fatigue, exercise-induced skeletal muscle
fatigue, muscular dystrophy, bladder disorders, and incontinence.
Cognitive disorders and diseases include, but are not limited to,
Alzheimer's Disease, forms of memory loss, and age-dependent memory loss.
