We have previously shown that SMP-304, a serotonin uptake inhibitor with weak 5-HT1A partial agonistic activity, may act under high serotonin levels as a 5-HT1A antagonist that improves the onset of paroxetine in the rat swimming test. However, SMP-304 is mostly metabolized by CYP2D6, indicating limited efficacy among individuals and increased side effects. To reduce CYP2D6 metabolic contribution and enhance SERT/5-HT1A binding affinity, we carried out a series of substitutions at the bromine atom in the left part of the benzene ring of SMP-304 and replaced the right part of SMP-304 with a chroman-4-one. This optimization work led to the identification of the antidepressant candidate DSP-1053 as a potent SERT inhibitor with partial 5-HT1A receptor agonistic activity. DSP-1053 showed low CYP2D6 metabolic contribution and a robust increase in serotonin levels in the rat frontal cortex.
