Title: Htt modulators for treating huntington&#39;s disease

Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 63/280,551, filed Nov. 17, 2021, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. 
    
    
     FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to modulators of HTT and methods of preventing and/or treating a neurodegenerative disease or condition. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Huntington&#39;s disease (HD) is a dominant inherited progressive neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric deficits as well as neurodegeneration and brain atrophy beginning in the striatum and the cortex and extending to other subcortical brain regions. HD has a prevalence of 5-10 cases per 100,000 worldwide, which makes it the most common inherited monogenetic neurodegenerative disease. 
     Neurodegenerative diseases and conditions, such as Huntington&#39;s disease, have a profound negative impact on the lives of those effected. Current treatments for Huntington&#39;s disease are palliative, aimed at lessening the severity of symptoms. There is no disease modifying treatment available. 
     Huntington&#39;s disease is caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat domain in Exon 1 of the huntingtin gene (HTT), which is expressed as mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT), containing an expanded polyglutamine tract in the amino terminal domain of the protein. The molecular route of pathogenesis is not entirely understood even though HD is monogenic and autosomal dominant. Therefore, mHTT lowering is a clear therapeutic strategy targeting the gene products of the causative gene. In fact, several therapeutic strategies targeting mHTT lowering via antisense oligionucleotide (ASO) or AAV-miR mediated HTT RNA degradation are advancing through clinical trials in HD and have demonstrated lowering of mHTT levels in the CSF of treated patients. 
     While these modalities show great promise, they are invasive (involving repeated intrathecal injections); their distribution throughout the brain to all affected regions is not certain; and they do not address any peripheral dysfunction the ubiquitously distributed mHTT may be responsible for. Therefore, small molecule HTT lowering agents that can be delivered systemically and non-invasively would be an attractive HTT lowering therapy to pursue. Thus, there is a need for small molecule modulators of HTT protein. Such molecules may find use in treating the symptoms and/or delaying the disease progression of Huntington&#39;s disease. 
     SUMMARY 
     The present disclosure relates generally to small molecule modulators of HTT, and use thereof as therapeutic agents, for example, in treating diseases such as Huntington&#39;s disease. 
     Thus, provided herein are compounds, or an isotopically enriched analog, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, prodrug, tautomer, stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers of the compounds, that are useful in treating Huntington&#39;s disease.

The disclosure further provides compounds or compositions thereof for use in a method of treating a disease or condition that is mediated, at least in part, by a protein, or a protein fragment, implicated in neurodegenerative disease. Moreover, the disclosure provides uses of the compounds or compositions thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a disease or condition that is mediated, at least in part, by a protein, or a protein fragment, implicated in neurodegenerative disease. 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The following description sets forth exemplary embodiments of the present technology. It should be recognized, however, that such description is not intended as a limitation on the scope of the present disclosure but is instead provided as a description of exemplary embodiments. 
     Definitions 
     As used in the present specification, the following words, phrases and symbols are generally intended to have the meanings as set forth below, except to the extent that the context in which they are used indicates otherwise. 
     A compound described herein refers to a compound, or an isotopically labeled analog, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, prodrug, stereoisomer, or mixture of stereoisomers thereof, of any formula described herein, including those of Formula I, Formula Ia, Formula Ib, Formula Ic, Formula IIa, Formula IIb, Formula IIIa, Formula IIIb, Formula IIIc, or a compound described anywhere herein including the Examples, or a compound of Table 1, Table 2, or Table 2A. 
     A dash (“-”) that is not between two letters or symbols is used to indicate a point of attachment to a parent structure for a substituent. For example, —C(O)NH 2  is attached to a parent structure through the carbon atom. A dash at the front or end of a chemical group is a matter of convenience; chemical groups may be depicted with or without one or more dashes without losing their ordinary meaning. A wavy line or a dashed line drawn through a bond in a structure indicates a specified point of attachment. Unless chemically or structurally required, no directionality or stereochemistry is indicated or implied by the order in which a chemical group is written or named. 
     The prefix “C u-v ” indicates that the following group has from u to v carbon atoms, exclusive of further substitution. For example, “C 1-6  alkyl” indicates an alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms. 
     Reference to “about” a value or parameter herein includes (and describes) embodiments that are directed to that value or parameter per se. In certain embodiments, the term “about” includes the indicated amount±10%. In other embodiments, the term “about” includes the indicated amount±5%. In certain other embodiments, the term “about” includes the indicated amount±1%. Also, to the term “about X” includes description of “X”.

     In certain embodiments, “substituted” refers to a group in which one or more (e.g., 1 to 5 or 1 to 3) hydrogen atoms are independently replaced with deuterium, halo, cyano, hydroxyl, imino, nitro, azido, oxo, thioxo, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, thioalkyl, haloalkoxy, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, N-heterocyclyl, heterocyclylalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, —NR g R h , —NR g C(═O)R h , —NR g C(═O)NR g R h , —NR g C(═O)OR h , —NR g S(═O) 1-2 R h , —C(═O)R g , —C(═O)OR g , —OC(═O)OR g , —OC(═O)R g , —C(═O)NR g R h , —OC(═O)NR g R h , —OR g , —SR g , —S(═O)R g , —S(═O) 2 R g , —OS(═O) 1-2 R g , —S(═O) 1-2 OR g , —NR g S(═O) 1-2 NR g R h , ═NSO 2 R g , ═NOR g , —S(═O) 1-2 NR g R h , —SF 5 , or —SCF 3 . In certain embodiments, “substituted” also means a group in which one or more (e.g., 1 to 5 or 1 to 3) hydrogen atoms are replaced with —C(═O)R g , —C(═O)OR g , —C(═O)NR g R h , —CH 2 SO 2 R g , or —CH 2 SO 2 NR g R h . In the foregoing, R g  and R h  are the same or different and independently hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, thioalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, haloalkyl, heterocyclyl, heterocyclylalkyl, heteroaryl, and/or heteroarylalkyl, or two of R g  and R h  are taken together with the atoms to which they are attached to form a heterocyclyl ring optionally substituted with oxo, halo, or alkyl optionally substituted with oxo, halo, amino, hydroxyl, or alkoxy. 
     Polymers or similar indefinite structures arrived at by defining substituents with further substituents appended ad infinitum (e.g., a substituted aryl having a substituted alkyl which is itself substituted with a substituted aryl group, which is further substituted by a substituted heteroalkyl group, etc.) are not intended to arise from the above definitions. Unless otherwise noted, the maximum number of serial substitutions in compounds described herein is three. For example, serial substitutions of substituted aryl groups with two other substituted aryl groups are limited to ((substituted aryl)substituted aryl) substituted aryl. Similarly, the above definitions are not intended to encompass compounds having chemically unfeasable or unisolable substitution patterns (e.g., methyl substituted with 5 fluorines or heteroaryl groups having three consecutive oxygen ring atoms). Such impermissible substitution patterns are well known to the skilled artisan. When used to modify a chemical group, the term “substituted” may describe other chemical groups defined herein. 
     In certain embodiments, as used herein, the phrase “one or more” refers to one to five. In certain embodiments, as used herein, the phrase “one or more” refers to one to three. 
     Any compound or structure given herein is intended to represent unlabeled forms as well as “isotopically enriched analogs” of the compounds. Isotopically enriched forms of compounds may also be referred to as “labeled.” Isotopically enriched analogs have structures depicted herein, except that one or more atoms are enriched in an isotope having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the compounds described herein include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, chlorine, and iodine, such as  2 H,  3 H,  11 C,  13 C,  14 C,  13 N,  15 N,  15 O,  17 O,  18 O,  31 P,  32 P,  35 S,  18 F,  36 Cl,  123 I, and  125 I, respectively. Generally, an isotopically enriched analog includes compounds having any isotopic enrichment above the natural abundance of the isotope (e.g., at Earth&#39;s surface). Various isotopically labeled compounds are included in the present disclosure, for example, those into which radioactive isotopes such as  3 H,  18 F,  11 C,  13 C, and  14 C are incorporated. Compounds labeled with  18 F,  3 H, or  11 C may be useful in metabolic studies, reaction kinetic studies, detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays or in radioactive treatment of patients. 
     The term “isotopically enriched analogs” includes “deuterated analogs” of compounds described herein in which one or more hydrogens is/are replaced by deuterium, such as a hydrogen on a carbon atom. Such compounds may exhibit increased resistance to metabolism and thus may be useful for increasing the half-life of any compound when administered to a mammal, particularly a human. See, for example, Foster, “Deuterium Isotope Effects in Studies of Drug Metabolism,” Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 5(12):524-527 (1984). Such compounds are synthesized by means well known in the art, for example, by employing starting materials in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by deuterium. 
     Deuterium labelled or substituted therapeutic compounds of the disclosure may have improved DMPK (drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics) properties, relating to distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life, reduced dosage requirements, and/or an improvement in therapeutic index. Isotopically labeled compounds of this disclosure and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the schemes or in the examples and preparations described below by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. Where a compound is described as a deuterated analog, the compound may be drawn with deuterium as a substituent. 
     The concentration of such a heavier isotope, specifically deuterium, may be defined by an isotopic enrichment factor. In the compounds of this disclosure any atom not specifically designated as a particular isotope is meant to represent any stable isotope of that atom. Unless otherwise stated, when a position is designated specifically as “H” or “hydrogen”, the position is understood to have hydrogen and its isotopes at their natural abundances. 
     In many cases, the compounds of this disclosure are capable of forming acid and/or base salts by virtue of the presence of amino and/or carboxyl groups or groups similar thereto. 
     Provided also are isotopically enriched analogs, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, tautomers, stereoisomers, and mixtures of stereoisomers of the compounds described herein. “Pharmaceutically acceptable” or “physiologically acceptable” refer to compounds, salts, compositions, dosage forms and other materials which are useful in preparing a pharmaceutical composition that is suitable for veterinary or human pharmaceutical use. 
     The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” of a compound described herein refers to salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the given compound and which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. “Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” or “physiologically acceptable salts” of compounds described herein include, for example, acid addition salts obtained by interacting a compound with a basic functional group with an acid, and base addition salts obtained by interacting a compound with an acidic functional group with a base. If the compound is obtained as an acid addition salt, the free base can be obtained by basifying a solution of the acid salt. Conversely, if the compound is a free base (e.g., of an amine), an addition salt may be produced by dissolving the free base in a suitable organic solvent and treating the solution with an acid. Those skilled in the art will recognize various synthetic methodologies that may be used to prepare nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of compounds described herein may be prepared from inorganic and organic acids. Suitable inorganic acids include, e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like. Suitable organic acids include, e.g., acetic acid, propionic acid, gluconic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluene-sulfonic acid, salicylic acid, and the like. Likewise, pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be prepared from inorganic and organic bases. Salts derived from inorganic bases include, by way of example only, sodium, potassium, lithium, aluminum, ammonium, calcium, and magnesium salts. Salts derived from organic bases include, but are not limited to, salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, such as alkyl amines (i.e., NH 2 (alkyl)), dialkyl amines (i.e., HN(alkyl) 2 ), trialkyl amines (i.e., N(alkyl) 3 ), substituted alkyl amines (i.e., NH 2 (substituted alkyl)), di(substituted alkyl) amines (i.e., HN(substituted alkyl) 2 ), tri(substituted alkyl) amines (i.e., N(substituted alkyl) 3 ), alkenyl amines (i.e., NH 2 (alkenyl)), dialkenyl amines (i.e., HN(alkenyl) 2 ), trialkenyl amines (i.e., N(alkenyl) 3 ), substituted alkenyl amines (i.e., NH 2 (substituted alkenyl)), di(substituted alkenyl) amines (i.e., HN(substituted alkenyl) 2 ), tri(substituted alkenyl) amines (i.e., N(substituted alkenyl) 3 ), mono-, di- or tri-cycloalkyl amines (i.e., NH 2 (cycloalkyl), HN(cycloalkyl) 2 , N(cycloalkyl) 3 ), mono-, di- or tri-arylamines (i.e., NH 2 (aryl), HN(aryl) 2 , N(aryl) 3 ), cyclic amines (e.g., piperidine, piperazine, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane), aromatic amines (e.g., pyridine, quinoline), or mixed amines, etc. Specific examples of suitable amines include, by way of example only, isopropylamine, trimethyl amine, diethyl amine, tri(iso-propyl) amine, tri(n-propyl) amine, ethanolamine, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, piperazine, piperidine, morpholine, N-ethylpiperidine, and the like. 
     Some compounds described herein may exist as tautomers. For example, where a compound is drawn as including an amide, the compound may exist as an imidic acid tautomer, and where a compound is drawn as including a ketone, the compound may also exist as an enol tautomer. Regardless of which tautomer is shown and regardless of the nature of the equilibrium among tautomers, the compounds are understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to comprise both tautomers. Thus, for example, the amide containing compounds are understood to include their imidic acid tautomers, and the imidic acid containing compounds are understood to include their amide tautomers. 
     The compounds described herein may include an asymmetric center and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)-, or as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids. Compounds described herein are meant to include all such possible isomers, as well as their racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (+) and (−), (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallization. Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). When the compounds described herein contain double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both cis- and trans- or E- and Z-geometric isomers. 
     A “stereoisomer” refers to one of a set of compounds made up of the same atoms bonded by the same bonds but having different three-dimensional structures. Various stereoisomers and mixtures thereof are contemplated including “enantiomers,” which refers to stereoisomeric compounds that are non-superimposable mirror images of one another. 
     A “diastereomer” is one of a set of stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric atoms that are not mirror-images of each other. 
     A “prodrug” is any molecule which releases a putatively active parent drug according to a compound described herein in vivo when such prodrug is administered to a mammalian subject. A prodrug may be a form of a compound described herein modified in such a way that the modifications may be cleaved in vivo to release the parent compound. Prodrugs may be prepared by modifying functional groups present in the compound described herein in such a way that the modifications are cleaved, either in routine manipulation or in vivo, to the parent compounds. Prodrugs include compounds described herein wherein a hydroxy, amino, carboxyl, or sulfhydryl group in a compound described herein is bonded to any group that may be cleaved in vivo to regenerate the free hydroxy, amino, or sulfhydryl group, respectively. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, esters (e.g., acetate, formate, and benzoate derivatives), amides, guanidines, carbamates (e.g., N,N-dimethylaminocarbonyl) of hydroxy functional groups in compounds described herein and the like. Preparation, selection and use of prodrugs is discussed in T. Higuchi and V. Stella, “Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems,” Vol. 14 of the A.C.S. Symposium Series; “Design of Prodrugs,” ed. H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985; and in Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987, each of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. 
     As used herein, the terms “group,” “moiety,” “radical,” “substituent,” and “fragment” are synonymous and are intended to indicate portions of molecules attachable to other portions of molecules, e.g., through an indicated attachment point or bond. 
     The term “active agent” is used to indicate a compound which has biological activity in the treatment, amelioration, or prevention of a disease or condition. In some embodiments, an “active agent” is a compound or an isotopically labeled analog, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, prodrug, stereoisomer, or mixture of stereoisomers thereof, having pharmaceutical utility. For example, an active agent may be an anti-neurodegenerative therapeutic. 
     The term “effective amount” means an amount, for example, of a compound described herein, sufficient to bring about a desired response in an individual or patient. The term “therapeutically effective amount” means an amount effective, when administered to a human or non-human patient, to provide a therapeutic benefit such as amelioration of symptoms, slowing of disease progression, or prevention of disease e.g., a therapeutically effective amount may be an amount sufficient to decrease the symptoms of a disease described herein. The (therapeutically) effective amount may vary depending on the subject, the disease or condition being treated, the weight and age of the subject, the severity of the disease or condition, and the manner of administering, which can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. 
     The term “huntingtin protein” or “HTT protein” as used herein, refers to the protein encoded by the human huntingtin gene (HTT gene) located on the short (p) arm of chromosome 4 at position 16.3. More precisely, the IT 15  gene coding for the HTT protein is located from base pair 3,076,407 to base pair 3,245,686 on chromosome 4. 
     The term “protein aggregate,” as used herein, refers to an aggregation of protein which may be, for example, an insoluble fibrous amyloid comprising mis-folded HTT protein molecules (“HTT protein aggregate”) or mis-folded β-amyloid protein molecules (“β-amyloid aggregate”). A “protein implicated in neurodegenerative disease” may be a protein that is capable of forming such aggregates, in its wild type or in a mutated form, or may be a protein that participates in a pathological process related to a neurodegenerative disease. 
     In some embodiments, the term “neurodegenerative disease” refers to a disease or condition in which the function of a subject&#39;s nervous system becomes impaired. Examples of neurodegenerative diseases include those described herein.
         “Treatment” or “treating” means any treatment of a disease state in a patient, including a) inhibiting the disease (e.g., decreasing one or more symptoms resulting from the disease or condition, and/or diminishing the extent of the disease or condition);   b) slowing or arresting the development of clinical symptoms associated with the disease or condition (e.g., stabilizing the disease or condition, preventing or delaying the worsening or progression of the disease or condition, and/or preventing or delaying the spread (e.g., metastasis) of the disease or condition); and/or   c) relieving the disease, that is, causing the regression of clinical symptoms (e.g., ameliorating the disease state, providing partial or total remission of the disease or condition, enhancing effect of another medication, delaying the progression of the disease, increasing the quality of life and/or prolonging survival).       

     “Prevention” or “preventing” means any treatment of a disease or condition that causes the clinical symptoms of the disease or condition not to develop. Compounds may, in some embodiments, be administered to a subject (including a human) who is at risk (e.g., carries a genetic or epigenetic marker, has engaged in an activity, or has been exposed to an environmental condition, associated with the disease or condition) or has a family history of the disease or condition. 
     “Subject” or “patient” refers to an animal, such as a mammal, that has been or will be the object of treatment, observation or experiment. The methods described herein may be useful in both human therapy and veterinary applications. In some embodiments, the subject or patient is a mammal. In some embodiments the subject or patient is human. 
     The methods described herein may be applied to cell populations in vivo or ex vivo. “In vivo” means within a living individual, as within an animal or human. In this context, the methods described herein may be used therapeutically in an individual. “Ex vivo” means outside of a living individual. Examples of ex vivo cell populations include in vitro cell cultures and biological samples including fluid or tissue samples obtained from individuals. Such samples may be obtained by methods well known in the art. Exemplary biological fluid samples include blood, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and saliva. In this context, the compounds and compositions described herein may be used for a variety of purposes, including therapeutic and experimental purposes. For example, the compounds and compositions described herein may be used ex vivo to determine the optimal schedule and/or dosing of administration of a compound of the present disclosure for a given indication, cell type, individual, and other parameters. Information gleaned from such use may be used for experimental purposes or in the clinic to set protocols for in vivo treatment. Other ex vivo uses for which the compounds and compositions described herein may be suited are described below or will become apparent to those skilled in the art. The selected compounds may be further characterized to examine the safety or tolerance dosage in human or non-human subjects. Such properties may be examined using commonly known methods to those skilled in the art. 
     It is appreciated that certain features described herein, which are, for clarity, described in the context of separate embodiments, may also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, various features described herein, which are, for brevity, described in the context of a single embodiment, may also be provided separately or in any suitable subcombination. All combinations of the embodiments pertaining to the chemical groups represented by the variables contained within Formula I are specifically embraced herein just as if each and every combination was individually and explicitly recited, to the extent that such combinations result in stable compounds (i.e., compounds that can be isolated, characterized, and tested for biological activity).

     In some embodiments, provided is a method of treating or preventing a disease or condition mediated, at least in part, by a protein implicated in neurodegenerative disease in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein. 
     Exemplary diseases or conditions are as follows. 
     Huntington&#39;s Disease (HD) 
     Huntington&#39;s disease (HD) is an inherited progressive neurodegenerative condition, characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric deficits as well as neurodegeneration and brain atrophy. Atrophy may begin in the striatum and cortex and extend to other subcortical brain regions. HD belongs to a family of neurodegenerative diseases in which an expanded CAG repeat tract results in long stretches of polyglutamine (polyQ) in an encoded protein. The family also includes dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA), spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) and the spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). In HD, the selective neurodegeneration of the γ-aminobutyric acid-releasing spiny-projection neurons of the striatum has been observed, although neuron loss in many other brain regions has also been reported. Symptoms of HD include loss of motor control, psychiatric symptoms, memory, and/or cognitive impairment. 
     Huntingtin protein (HTT protein) is a 348-kDa multidomain protein that contains a polymorphic glutamine/proline-rich domain at its amino-terminus. The number of CAG repeats in the IT 15  gene that encodes them varies from 6 to 35 in healthy individuals; repeats of 36 or more define an HD allele. The length of the CAG expansion has been inversely correlated with age of disease onset, with cases of juvenile onset characterized by expansions of more than 60 repeats. Reduced penetrance is seen between 36 and 39 repeats. See McColgan P, et al., Huntington&#39;s disease: a clinical review, Eur. J. Neurology, 2017, Vol. 25, 24-34, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. The longer polyQ domain is believed to induce conformational changes in the HTT protein, which causes it to form intracellular aggregates that, in many, manifest as nuclear inclusions. However, aggregates can also form outside the nucleus. HTT protein is present in the nucleus, cell body, dendrites and nerve terminals of neurons, and is also associated with a number of organelles including the Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. 
     A diagnosis of Huntington&#39;s disease is based on a confirmed family history or positive genetic test and the onset of motor disturbance as defined by the Unified HD Rating Scale (UHDRS) total motor score (TMS) diagnostic confidence score. This score ranges from 0 (no motor abnormalities suggestive of HD) to 4 (≥99% to be due to HD), with a score of 4 defining motor onset or ‘manifest’ HD. However, subtle motor, cognitive and psychiatric deficits can be identified up to 10-15 years before the onset of manifest disease and this is referred to as the pre-manifest stage of the disease. 
     Huntington&#39;s disease (HD) stages are described in, e.g., Winder, J. Y. et al., Assessment Scales for Patients with Advanced Huntington&#39;s Disease: Comparison of the UHDRS and UHDRS-FAP, Mov Disord Clin Pract. 2018 September-October; 5(5): 527-533, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. HD may be classified as early stage (stage 1 or 2 Total Function Capacity (TFC) score), mid stage (stage 3 TFC score), or late stage (stage 4 or 5 TFC score). See, e.g., Shoulson, I. et al., Huntington disease: Clinical care and evaluation, Neurology, 1979, Vol. 29(1), 1; Shoulson, I., Huntington disease: functional capacities in patients treated with neuroleptic and antidepressant drugs, Neurology, 1981, Vol. 31(10), 1333-35. A new framework (HD-ISS) was published recently that stages HD based on biological, clinical, and functional assessments (Tabrizi et al, Huntington&#39;s Disease Regulatory Science Consortium (HD-RSC), A biological classification of Huntington&#39;s disease: the Integrated Staging System. Lancet Neurol. 2022, 21, 632-644). The part of the brain most affected by HD, and thus believed to be most likely to contain HTT protein abnormalities, is a group of nerve cells at the base of the brain known collectively as the basal ganglia. The basal ganglia organize muscle-driven movements of the body, or “motor movement.” The major components of the basal ganglia are the caudate and the putamen (together known as the striatum) and the globus pallidus (external and internal regions). The substantia nigra and the subthalamic nucleus are often included as part of the basal ganglia as well. 
     Basal ganglia are a group of subcortical nuclei responsible primarily for motor control, as well as other roles, such as motor learning, executive functions and behaviors, and emotions. Disruption of the basal ganglia network are believed to contribute to several movement disorders. Normal function of the basal ganglia requires fine tuning of neuronal excitability within each nucleus to determine the degree of movement facilitation or inhibition at any given moment. This is mediated by the complex organization of the striatum, where the excitability of medium spiny neurons is controlled by several pre- and postsynaptic mechanisms as well as interneuron activity, and secured by several recurrent or internal basal ganglia circuits. The motor circuit of the basal ganglia has two entry points, the striatum and the subthalamic nucleus, and an output, the globus pallidus pars interna, which connects to the cortex via the motor thalamus. 
     A compound described herein, when administered to a subject, may inhibit neuron degeneration. In some embodiments, inhibiting neuron degeneration may include inhibiting axon or neuron degeneration in a neuron. Such inhibition with respect to the entire neuron or a portion thereof, such as the neuron cell body, axons and dendrites. This can be assessed, for example, by analysis of neurological function according to methods known in the art. 
     The administration of a compound described herein may result in a rescue, for example, at least a 10% reduction (e.g., at least 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or 100%) in one or more symptoms of a disease or condition described herein. The disease or condition may be a disorder of the nervous system that is secondary to a disease, condition, or therapy having a primary effect outside of the nervous system; an injury to the nervous system caused by physical, mechanical or chemical trauma; autoimmune neural degeration; neurodegeneration secondary to infection; and/or ocular neurodegeneration. Symptoms of nerve degeneration include, e.g., tremors, slowness of movement, ataxia, loss of balance, depression, decreased cognitive function, short term memory loss, long term memory loss, confusion, changes in personality, language difficulties, loss of sensory perception, sensitivity to touch, numbness in extremities, muscle weakness, muscle paralysis, muscle cramps, muscle spasms, significant changes in eating habits, excessive fear or worry, insomnia, delusions, hallucinations, fatigue, back pain, chest pain, digestive problems, headache, rapid heart rate, dizziness, blurred vision, shadows or missing areas of vision, metamorphopsia, impairment in color vision, decreased recovery of visual function after exposure to bright light, and loss in visual contrast sensitivity. 
     The administration of a compound described herein may result in at least a 10% decrease (e.g., at least 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 100%) in the number of neurons (or neuron bodies, axons, or dendrites thereof) that degenerate in a neuron population or in a subject compared to the number of neurons (or neuron bodies, axons, or dendrites thereof) that degenerate in neuron population or in a subject that is not administered the one or more of the compounds described herein. 
     Neurons can convey information from tissues and organs into the central nervous system (afferent or sensory neurons) and transmit signals from the central nervous systems to effector cells (efferent or motor neurons). Other neurons, designated interneurons, connect neurons within the central nervous system (the brain and spinal column). Certain specific examples of neuron types that may be subject to treatment according to the disclosure include cerebellar granule neurons, dorsal root ganglion neurons, PNS neurons (e.g. sensory neurons), and cortical neurons.

     Pharmaceutical Compositions and Administration Thereof 
     Compounds provided herein may be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. Thus, provided herein are also pharmaceutical compositions that contain a compound described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. 
     Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients may include, for example, inert solid diluents and fillers, diluents, including sterile aqueous solution and various organic solvents, permeation enhancers, solubilizers and adjuvants. Such compositions are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art. See, e.g., Remington&#39;s Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mace Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa. 17th Ed. (1985); and Modern Pharmaceutics, Marcel Dekker, Inc. 3rd Ed. (G. S. Banker &amp; C. T. Rhodes, Eds.). 
     The pharmaceutical composition may be formulated for administration by various methods including, for example, oral, rectal, buccal, intranasal, and transdermal routes. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may be administered by intra-arterial injection, intravenously, intraperitoneally, parenterally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, orally, topically, or as an inhalant. 
     The pharmaceutical composition may be formulated for administration by injection. The forms in which the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be incorporated for administration by injection include, for example, aqueous or oil suspensions, or emulsions, with sesame oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs, mannitol, dextrose, or a sterile aqueous solution, and similar pharmaceutical excipients. 
     The pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspension. This suspension may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parentally acceptable vehicle, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles that may be employed are water, Ringer&#39;s solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid can be useful in the preparation of injectables. Such solutions may be formulated as 0.01%-10% isotonic solutions, pH 5-7, with appropriate salts. 
     The compound described herein may be administered parenterally in a sterile medium. Parenteral administration includes subcutaneous injections, intravenous, intramuscular, intrathecal injection, or infusion techniques. The compound described herein, depending on the vehicle and concentration used, can either be suspended or dissolved in the vehicle. Advantageously, adjuvants such as local anesthetics, preservatives, and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. In many pharmaceutical compositions for parenteral administration the carrier comprises at least 90% by weight of the total composition. In some embodiments, the carrier for parenteral administration is chosen from propylene glycol, ethyl oleate, pyrrolidone, ethanol, and sesame oil. 
     A pharmaceutical composition, for example, for injection, may comprise a cyclodextrin. The cyclodextrin may be, for example, a hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin or a sulfobutylether cyclodextrin. The cyclodextrin may be, for example, an α-cyclodextrin, a β-cyclodextrin, or a γ-cyclodextrin. 
     A compound described herein may also be administered via microspheres, liposomes, other microparticulate delivery systems or sustained release formulations placed in certain tissues including blood. Suitable examples of sustained release carriers include semi-permeable polymer matrices in the form of shared articles, e.g., suppositories or microcapsules. Examples can be found, e.g., in Remington&#39;s Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th edition, Gennaro, A. R., Lippincott Williams &amp; Wilkins; 20th edition (Dec. 15, 2000) ISBN 0-912734-04-3 and Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems; Ansel, N. C. et al. 7th Edition ISBN 0-683305-72-7, the entire disclosures of which are herein incorporated by reference. 
     The pharmaceutical composition may be formulated for oral administration. The pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of, for example, a capsule or a tablet. The oral formulation may include an enteric coating. In making the pharmaceutical composition the compound described herein is usually diluted by an excipient and/or enclosed within such a carrier that can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be in the form of a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing, for example, up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and hard gelatin capsules, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders. 
     Some examples of suitable excipients include, e.g., lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, sterile water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The pharmaceutical composition can additionally include lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl and propylhydroxy-benzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents. 
     The pharmaceutical composition can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the subject by employing procedures known in the art. Controlled release drug delivery systems for oral administration include osmotic pump systems and dissolutional systems containing polymer-coated reservoirs or drug-polymer matrix formulations. Another formulation for use in the methods disclosed herein employ transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds described herein in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents. 
     For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the compound described herein may be mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, the compound may be dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. 
     The tablets or pills of the compounds described herein may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action, or to protect from the acid conditions of the stomach. For example, the tablet or pill can include an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer that serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit the inner component to pass intact into the intestine, or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate. 
     The compound described herein can be incorporated into oral liquid preparations such as aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups, or elixirs, for example. Furthermore, pharmaceutical compositions containing the compound described herein can be presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations can contain conventional additives, such as suspending agents (e.g., sorbitol syrup, methyl cellulose, glucose/sugar, syrup, gelatin, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, aluminum stearate gel, and hydrogenated edible fats), emulsifying agents (e.g., lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia), non-aqueous vehicles, which can include edible oils (e.g., almond oil, fractionated coconut oil, silyl esters, propylene glycol and ethyl alcohol), and preservatives (e.g., methyl or propylp-hydroxybenzoate and sorbic acid). 
     Compositions for inhalation or insufflation may include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders. The liquid or solid compositions may contain suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients as described herein. In some embodiments, the compositions are administered by the oral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect. In other embodiments, compositions in pharmaceutically acceptable solvents may be nebulized by use of inert gases. Nebulized solutions may be inhaled directly from the nebulizing device or the nebulizing device may be attached to a facemask tent, or intermittent positive pressure breathing machine. Solution, suspension, or powder compositions may be administered, preferably orally or nasally, from devices that deliver the formulation in an appropriate manner. 
     A compound described herein, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, may be administered in an appropriate dose as determined by an informed medical practitioner. The compound or pharmaceutical composition may be administered in a single dosage or in multiple dosages, and in a single dosage form or in a plurality of dosage forms (e.g., two tablets or three capsules). For any particular subject, an appropriate dose will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion, active agents used in combination, and the severity of the particular disease or condition, of the subject. For example, a dose may be expressed as a number of milligrams of a compound described herein per kilogram of the subject&#39;s body weight (mg/kg) per day. A dose of about 0.1 to about 150 mg/kg may be appropriate. In some embodiments, a dose of about 0.1 to about 100 mg/kg may be appropriate. In some embodiments, a dose of from about 0.0001 to about 100 mg per kg of body weight per day, from about 0.001 to about 50 mg of compound per kg of body weight, or from about 0.01 to about 10 mg of compound per kg of body weight may be appropriate. In some embodiments, a dose may be administered in multiple administrations per day, for example, in one administration per day, two administrations per day, or three administrations per day. In some embodiments, a dose may be administered once in two days, once in three days, once in four days, or once per week. Normalizing according to the subject&#39;s body weight is particularly useful when adjusting dosages between subjects of widely disparate size, such as occurs when using the drug in both children and adult humans or when converting an effective dosage in a non-human subject such as dog to a dosage suitable for a human subject.

     Synthesis of the Compounds 
     A compound described herein may be prepared using the methods disclosed herein and routine modifications thereof, which will be apparent given the disclosure herein and methods well known in the art. Conventional and well-known synthetic methods may be used in addition to the teachings herein. The synthesis of a typical compound described herein may be accomplished as described in the following examples. If available, reagents may be purchased commercially, e.g., from Sigma Aldrich or other chemical suppliers. 
     A compound described herein can be prepared from readily available starting materials using, for example, the following general methods and procedures. It will be appreciated that where typical or preferred process conditions (i.e., reaction temperatures, times, mole ratios of reactants, solvents, pressures, etc.) are given, other process conditions can also be used unless otherwise stated. Optimum reaction conditions may vary with the particular reactants or solvent used, but such conditions can be determined by one skilled in the art by routine optimization procedures. 
     Additionally, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, conventional protecting groups may be necessary to prevent certain functional groups from undergoing undesired reactions. Suitable protecting groups for various functional groups as well as suitable conditions for protecting and deprotecting particular functional groups are well known in the art. For example, numerous protecting groups are described in Wuts, P. G. M., Greene, T. W., &amp; Greene, T. W. (2006), Greene&#39;s protective groups in organic synthesis. Hoboken, N.J., Wiley-Interscience, and references cited therein. 
     Furthermore, a compound described herein may contain one or more asymmetric (“chiral”) centers. Accordingly, if desired, such compounds can be prepared or isolated as pure stereoisomers, i.e., as individual enantiomers or diastereomers or as stereoisomer-enriched mixtures. All such stereoisomers (and enriched mixtures) are included within the scope of this disclosure, unless otherwise indicated. Pure stereoisomers (or enriched mixtures) may be prepared using, for example, optically active starting materials or stereoselective reagents well-known in the art. Alternatively, racemic mixtures of such compounds can be separated using, for example, chiral column chromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography, chiral resolving agents, and the like. When enantiomerically pure or enriched compounds are desired, chiral chromatography and/or enantiomerically pure or enriched starting materials may be employed as conventionally used in the art or as described in the Examples. 
     The starting materials for the following reactions are generally known compounds or can be prepared by known procedures or obvious modifications thereof. For example, many of the starting materials are available from commercial suppliers such as Sigma Aldrich, Alfa Aesar, and the like. Others may be prepared by procedures or obvious modifications thereof, described in standard reference texts such as Fieser and Fieser&#39;s Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-15 (John Wiley, and Sons, 1991), Rodd&#39;s Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5, and Supplementals (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989) organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley, and Sons, 1991), March&#39;s Advanced Organic Chemistry, (John Wiley, and Sons, 5th Edition, 2001), and Larock&#39;s Comprehensive Organic Transformations (VCH Publishers Inc., 1989). 
     The terms “solvent,” “inert organic solvent” and “inert solvent” refer to a solvent inert under the conditions of the reaction being described in conjunction therewith (including, for example, benzene, toluene, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran (“THF”), dimethylformamide (“DMF”), chloroform, methylene chloride (or dichloromethane), diethyl ether, methanol, pyridine and the like). Generally, the term inert, as used herein with respect to a solvent, refers to a material that does not undergo reaction to form the target compound of interest through carbon-carbon bond forming reactions. Unless specified to the contrary, the solvents used in the reactions of the present disclosure are inert organic solvents, and the reactions are carried out under an inert gas, preferably nitrogen or argon. 
     The term “q.s.” means adding a quantity sufficient to achieve a stated function, e.g., to bring a solution to the desired volume (i.e., 100%). 
     It will also be appreciated that in each of the below schemes, the addition of any substituent may result in the production of a number of isomeric products (including, but not limited to, enantiomers or one or more diastereomers) any or all of which may be isolated and purified using conventional techniques. 
     Incorporation of an isotopical label, e.g., a deuterium atom, into a compound described herein may be conducted by reacting an appropriate starting material(s) with a reagent including a radioactive isotope. Methods typically follow the same principles as standard organic chemical reactions, and may be carried out by any method known to those of skill in the art, including those provided in the present disclosure. 
     Scheme 1 provides exemplary synthetic routes for the synthesis of compounds provided herein (e.g., compounds of Formula I). The compounds of Formula I, or other formulas or compounds disclosed herein, are typically prepared by first providing Formulas Va and Vb and then attaching the desired substituents using suitable conditions (e.g., amide bond formation, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, or cross coupling). 
     In some embodiments, synthesis of a compound of Formula I proceeds according to Scheme 1. Synthesis of a compound of Formula I may proceed by coupling Compound Va with Compound Vb to form Compound Vc, coupling Compound Vc with Compound Vd, and preparing a compound of Formula I by one or more subsequent steps. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     In Scheme 1, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , X 1 , X 2 , X 3 , X 4 , Y 1 , and Y 2  are as defined herein. A 1 , A 2 , and A 3  are as defined below, and Z 3 —Z 4 -Z 5  is N—CR 7 ═CR 8  or C═CR 7 —NR 10 . 
     In Scheme 1, Compound Va may be joined with Compound Vb by amide bond formation through a leaving group at A 1  and an amine in Compound Vb (as shown in Scheme 1). A 1  may be a suitable leaving group such as, for example, a halide, a pseudohalide, a carboxylic acid, or carboylate. Compound Va may be activated at A 1  by an activating agent for activating a carboxylate group (e.g., chloro-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylformamidinium hexafluorophosphate, HATU, HBTU), optionally in the presence of a base (e.g., 1-methylimidazole, triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine), and in a suitable solvent (e.g., a polar aprotic solvent such as acetonitrile, DMF, or dichloromethane). Alternatively, a carboxylate at A 1  may be first activated by an activating agent (e.g., oxalyl chloride) and then combined with Compound Vb in the presence of a base (e.g., triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine). In such embodiments, an activated form of Compound Va (e.g., where A 1  is a halide such as a chloride) need not be isolated, and the reaction can be conducted in one pot. 
     In Scheme 1, a compound of Formula I may be prepared. Thus, Compound Vc may be joined with Compound Vd in a coupling reaction, e.g., by nucleophlic addition such as nucleophilic aromatic substitution to Compound Vc at A 2 . In such embodiments, A 2  may be a suitable leaving group (e.g., a halide such as a chloride or a fluoride, or a pseudohalide such as a sulfonyl), and A 3  may be a hydrogen atom or, where R 1  is present as an anion, a cation (e.g., sodium ion, potassium ion). A nucleophilic aromatic substitution may be carried out heated (e.g., to a temperature of 50 to 200° C.) in the presence of a base (e.g., triethylamine, cesium carbonate, NaH, potassium carbonate, pyridine), and in a suitable solvent (e.g., dioxane, DMF, acetonitrile, DMSO). Alternatively, Compound Vc may be joined with Compound Vd in a coupling reaction (e.g., a metal-catalyzed coupling reaction). In such embodiments, for example, A 2  may be a leaving group (e.g., a halide such as a chloride or a bromide, or a pseudohalide such as a sulfonyl), and R 1  may comprise a suitable coupling functionality (e.g., a carbon-carbon double bond) and A 3  may be a complimentary coupling partner to A 2  (e.g., a hydrogen atom or a tin- or boron-containing group). The reaction may be conducted with a catalyst (e.g., bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride), and optionally in the presence of a base (e.g., sodium carbonate). 
     In some embodiments, A 2  may be R 1 , and Compound Vc may be converted to a compound of Formula I directly (without reaction with Compound Vd). 
     In Compound Va, Vb, Vc, and/or Vd, any of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , X 1 , X 2 , X 3 , X 4 , Y 1 , Y 2 , Z 4 , and Z 5  may be present in a protected form, for example at an amine or hydroxyl group. Amine protecting groups include those known in the art and described herein, including, for example, the tert-butoxycarbonyl group. In such embodiments, an additional step of deprotection may be needed. For example, where the protecting group is a tert-butoxycarbonyl group, an acidic deprotection step (e.g., using HCl in dioxane or TFA) may be needed to prepare the compound of Formula I. 
     A person of skill in the art will appreciate that any of Compound Va, Vb, Vc, or Vd may be available from a commercial supplier for a particular embodiment. Alternative synthesis of Compound Va, Vb, Vc, or Vd may be as described herein or as known to those of skill in the art.

     Biological Assay Example 
     Time-resolved FRET assay: Q48-Huntingtin and total-Huntington detection Detection of endogenous HTT protein in cell lysates was performed using a protocol adapted from Weiss et al. See Weiss A et al. (2009). Single-step detection of mutant huntingtin in animal and human tissues: a bioassay for Huntington&#39;s disease. Anal. Biochem. 395(1): 8-15. 
     The multiplex assay was performed in human embryonic stem cells (GEN020 hESCs with mutant 48 Q repeat allele) which have been derived by Genea Biocells from human blastocysts of HD donors. Bradley C K et al. (2011). Derivation of Huntington&#39;s disease-affected human embryonic stem cell lines, Stem Cells Dev. 2011 March; 20(3):495-502. Cells were plated into 384-well collagen coated plates (10,000 cells per well) and left to adhere for 24 hours, test compounds were then added for 48 hours (37° C., 5% CO 2 ), cells were then lysed, and the lysate was transferred to a black 384-well assay plate. 
     The assay plate included a combination of HTRF labelled monoclonal antibodies added to recognize discreet areas of the HTT protein, the Tb “donor” antibody (2B7-Tb: 0.2 ng/well) recognizes a sequence at the N-terminus of the protein, an Alexa488 “acceptor 1” antibody (MW1-Alexa488: 30 ng/well) recognizes an area in the polyQ region, whereas a d2 “acceptor 2” antibody (MAB2166-d2: 6 ng/well) recognizes a sequence beyond the polyQ region. These detection reagents were incubated with the cell lysate at room temperature for 4-6 hours before having their fluorescence quantified at 615 nm (donor) and 535 nm and 665 nm (acceptor 1 and 2 respectively). The donor/acceptor ratio between these signals indicated the relative quantities of mHTT and tHTT. 
     Results for various compounds described herein are provided in the Tables below. tHTT activity in this assay is categorized as 10-20 μM (−); 1-10 μM (+); 0.5-1 μM (++); 0.1-0.5 μM (+++); &lt;0.1 μM (++++).
