Abstract: This invention relates to a complex of eletriptan and a sulphobutylether-beta-cyclodextrin, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and to processes for the preparation of, pharmaceutical formulations including, and the uses of, such a complex.

Abstract: Compounds that inhibit the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (rotamase) enzyme activity of the FK-506 binding protein (FKBP) and compositions comprising these compounds are described. The FKBP-inhibiting compounds have a bicyclic [3.3.1], [4.3.1] or polycyclic azaamide nucleus. Pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds help stimulate the outgrowth of neurites in nerve cells and augmenting nerve regeneration. Methods of treating nerve cells with such compositions are useful to promote repair of neuronal damage caused by disease and physical trauma.

Abstract: This invention provides a compound of the following formula: or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof wherein Z is OH, C1-6 alkoxy, —NR2R3 or heterocycle; Q is selected from the following: (a) an optionally substituted phenyl, (b) an optionally substituted 6-membered monocyclic aromatic group containing one, two, three or four nitrogen atom(s), (c) an optionally substituted 5-membered monocyclic aromatic group containing one heteroatom selected from O, S and N and optionally containing one, two or three nitrogen atom(s) in addition to said heteroatom, (d) an optionally substituted C3-7 cycloalkyl and (e) an optionally substituted benzo-fuzed heterocycle; R1 is hydrogen, C1-4 alkyl or halo; R2 and R3 are independently hydrogen, OH, C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4 alkyl or C1-4 alkyl substituted with halo, OH, C1-4 alkoxy or CN; X is independently selected from H, halo, C1-4 alkyl, halo-substituted C1-4 alkyl, OH, C1-4 alkoxy, halo-substituted C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4 alkylthio, NO2, NH2, di-(C1-4 al

Abstract: A compound of the formula wherein R1, R2 R3, R4 R5, R6, R7, R8, R9 and Q are as defined above, useful in the treatment of a condition selected from the group consisting of arthritis, cancer, tissue ulceration, macular degeneration, restenosis, periodontal disease, epidermolysis bullosa, scleritis, and other diseases characterized by matrix metalloproteinase activity, AIDS, sepsis, septic shock and other diseases involving the production of TNF. In addition, the compounds of the present invention may be used in combination therapy with standard non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID'S) and analgesics, and in combination with cytotoxic drugs such as adriamycin, daunomycin, cis-platinum, etoposide, taxol, taxotere and other alkaloids, such as vincristine, in the treatment of cancer.
