Basmisanil (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name; developmental codes RG-1662 and RO5186582) is a highly selective inverse agonist/negative allosteric modulator of α5 subunit-containing GABAA receptors which is under development by Roche for the treatment of cognitive impairment associated with Down syndrome.[1][2][3] As of June 2016, it is no longer studied for this purpose.[4] It underwent a clinical trial for cognitive impairment in patients with schizophrenia.[5]
