Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention refers to the use of a specific indolocarbazole compound of general formula (1) or a pharmaceutically-acceptable a salt thereof for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of a neurode-generative and/or dementing illness driven by the molecular pathology of microtubule-associate tau such as Alzheimer's disease, frontal lobe dementia, Pick's disease, Parkinson disease with dementia, corticobasal degeneration, argyrophilic grains disease, or supranuclear palsy. A method for treating or preventing such illnesses is also disclosed. Furthermore, methods for the identification of efficacious inhibitors of neurofibrillary degeneration, and methods for the determination of an appropriate dosage of an inhibitor of the PHF-type tau hyperphosphorylation for the treatment of a condition characterized by neurofibrillary pathology are described.
