3-(ethoxydifluoromethyl)-6-(5-fluoro-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)pyridin-3-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine as an ion channel modulator

The present invention is directed to 3-(ethoxydifluoromethyl)-6-(5-fluoro-6-(2,2,2-trofluoroethoxy)pyridine-3-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-α]pyridine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a composition thereof, which is useful for preventing and/or treating a disease or condition relating to aberrant function of a voltage-gated, sodium ion channel, for example, abnormal late/persistent sodium current. Methods of treating a disease or condition relating to aberrant function of a sodium ion channel including neurological disorders (e.g., Dravet syndrome, epilepsy), pain, and neuromuscular disorders are also provided herein.
