Abstract: The invention relates to a new (3R)-3-amino-4-carboxybutyraldehyde derivatives of general formula(I) wherein X represents a C1-4 alkyloxycarbonyl, an optionally substituted phenyl-(C1-2 alkyloxy)-carbonyl, a C1-4 alkylcarbonyl or an optionally substituted phenyl-(C1-3 alkyl)-carbonyl group, n represents 1 or 0, Y represents, in the case when n=1, a tetrapeptide of general formula Y4-Y3-Y2-Y1, a tripeptide of general formula Y3-Y2-Y1 or a dipeptide of general formula Y2-Y1 or an amino acid residue of general formula Y1, or in the case when n=0, an &agr;-hydroxyacyl-tripeptide of general formula Q4-Y3-Y2-Y1, an &agr;-hydroxyacyl-dipeptide of general formula Q3-Y2-Y1 or an &agr;-hydroxyacyl-aminoacyl residue of general formula Q2-Y1; wherein Y1-Y4 represent a residue selected from the group of the following L- or D-amino acids: alanine, alloisoleucine, cyclohexyl-glycine, phenyl-alanine, glutamine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, pipecolic acid, proline, tyrosi

Abstract: The invention relates to new peptidyl-arginine aldehyde compounds of formula (I) Q-D-Xaa-Pro-Arg-H  (I) wherein Q represents an acyl group of formula Q′—OCO, wherein Q′ represents an alkyl-group with 1-3 carbon atoms, D-Xaa represents a 3-cyclobutyl-D-alanyl- or 3-cyclopentyl-D-alanyl group, Pro represents an L-prolyl group, and Arg represents an L-arginyl group, and acid-addition salts thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, which are suitable for the prevention and cure of thrombosis and accelerated blood clotting.

Abstract: This invention relates to peptide aldehyde derivatives of formula (I): D-Xaa-Pro-Arg-H, wherein Xaa represent a 2-cycloheptyl-2-hydroxyacetyl or 2-cyclopentyl-2-hydroxyacetyl group, Pro represents an L-prolyl residue and Arg represents an L-arginyl residue, their acid-additon salts formed with an organic or inorganic acid and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same. The compounds of formula (I) of the invention have therapeutic, particularly anticoagulant, antiplatelet and antithrombotic properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a tablet or dragee composition containing a moisture-, heat- and light-sensitive compounds having monoclinic crystalline structure as active ingredients, which comprises homogenizing the active ingredient with 0.2 to 1.5 parts by weight of an anhydrous alkaline earth metal salt and 0.5 to 2.5 parts by weight of microcrystalline cellulose calculated for the active ingredient and optionally with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carrier(s) and/or additive(s) and compressing the homogeneous mixture obtained to tablets in a manner known per se and, if desired, coating the tablet thus obtained in a manner known per se.
