  • Patent number: 9051304
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel carboxamide compounds and their use for the manufacture of a medicament. The carboxamide compounds are inhibitors of calpain (calcium dependant cysteine proteases). The invention therefore also relates to the use of these carboxamide compounds for treating a disorder associated with an elevated calpain activity. The carboxamide compounds are compounds of the general formula I in which R1, R2, R3 R4, R5, m and n have the meanings mentioned in the claims and the description, the tautomers thereof, the hydrates thereof and the pharmaceutically suitable salts thereof.
