Abstract

The invention encompasses a novel class of cyclobutyl sulfone derivatives which inhibit the processing of APP by the putative γ-secretase while sparing Notch signaling pathway, and thus are useful in the treatment or prevention of Alzheimer's disease without the development of Notch inhibition mediated gastrointestinal issues. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use are also included.
