A new class of pseudo-trisaccharide aminoglycosides having an alkyl group at the 5″ position, exhibiting efficient stop codon mutation readthrough activity, low cytotoxicity and high selectivity towards eukaryotic translation systems are provided. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, and uses thereof in the treatment of genetic disorders, as well as processes of preparing these aminoglycosides. The disclosed aminoglycosides can be represented by the general formula I: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl and aryl; and all other variables and features are as described in the specification.
A method for treating a genetic disorder associated with a premature stop codon mutation and/or a protein truncation phenotype, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of the compound:
A pharmaceutical composition being packaged in a packaging material and identified in print, in or on said packaging material, for use in the treatment of a genetic disorder associated with a premature stop codon mutation and/or a protein truncation phenotype, the composition comprising the compound:
