Abstract: The present invention provides at least one LHRH antagonist for the treatment or prophylaxis of at least one lower urinary tract symptom in mammals which is to be administered in an intermediate dose, which does not cause chemical (hormonal) castration.

Abstract: The present invention provides triazole derivatives according to formula (I) as ligands of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR), which are useful for the study of and/or the treatment or prophylaxis of physiological and/or pathophysiological conditions in mammals, preferably humans, which are mediated by GPCR.

Abstract: The invention provides sterile suspensions and sterile lyophilizates of slightly soluble basic peptide complexes, and pharmaceutical formulations comprising them. The provided sterile suspensions, sterile lyophilizates and pharmaceutical formulations comprising them are particularly suitable for use in a parenteral dosage form as medicaments for the treatment and prophylaxis of diseases and pathological states in mammals, especially in humans.

Abstract: The present inventions provides a method for therapeutic management of extrauterine proliferation of endometrial tissue, chronic pelvic pain and fallopian tube obstruction by short term induction treatment with an LH-RH antagonist for 4 to 12 weeks. According to another aspect of the present invention, the short term LH-RH treatment is followed by the combined or separate administration of one or more active agents selected from the group consisting of a contraceptive, preferably an oral contraceptive, a non-steroidal anti-rheumatic agent, an analgetic, an androgen other than a 17-alpha-alkyl substituted testosterone or any combinations thereof.

Abstract: A method of treating infertility disorders by 1) administering an LH-RH antagonist, preferably Cetrorelix, in amounts to selectively suppress endogenous LH but not FSH secretion and 2) inducing follicle growth by administration of exogenous gonadotropin. The selective suppression OF LH allows FSH secretion to be at natural levelS thereby not affecting individual estrogen development. The LH-RH antagonist can be given as a single or dual subcutaneous dose in the range of 1 mg to 10 mg, preferably 2 mg-6 mg. In multiple dosing-posology, LH-RH antagonist can be administered subcutaneously in an amount in the range of 0.1 to 0.5 mg of LH-RH antagonist/day. LH-RH antagonist is applied starting cycle day 1 to 10, preferably on day 4 to 8, and ovulation can be induced between day 9 and 20 of the menstruation cycle by administering rec. LH, native LH-RH, LH-RH agonist or by HCG. In addition rec.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel indole derivatives of the general formula 1, to their preparation and to their use as medicaments, in particular for treating tumors.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel tetrahydrocarbazole derivatives which have improved properties and which can be employed as inhibitors of GPCRs. This results in the possibility of using the novel compounds to treat pathological conditions whose severity depends on the pathobiochemical effect of GPCRs. The compounds of the invention act in particular via an antagonistic inhibition of the LHRH receptor. The invention further provides medicaments which comprise one or more of the novel compounds as active ingredient. The medicaments are suitable in particular to be employed in an oral dosage form for a mammal, in particular a human.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine derivatives of the general Formula I, their preparation and use as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of malignant and other disorders based on pathological cell proliferations.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel indole derivatives of the general formula 1, to their preparation and to their use as medicaments, in particular for treating tumors.

Abstract: The present invention provides conjugates of disorazoles and their derivatives with cell-binding molecules, such as peptides, proteins, hormones, blood proteins and antibodies. The present invention further provides novel disorazole derivatives and processes of manufacturing such conjugates and disorazole derivatives. These compounds can be used as medicaments for the treatment of physiological and/or pathophysiological conditions in mammals, in particular for the treatment of various tumors.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel anthracene compounds according to the formulae (I) and (II) and also selected anthracene compound compounds. The present invention furthermore provides a process for preparing such anthracene compounds. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising these anthracene compounds. The anthracene compounds provided are particularly suitable for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of physiological and/or pathophysiological conditions which can be treated by inhibiting tubulin polymerization and/or by inhibiting microtubuli-based motor proteins, in particular various tumor disorders.

Abstract: LHRH analogues and LHRH antagonists for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of hormone-dependent cancers, in particular prostate cancer, prostate carcinoma and/or advanced prostate carcinoma, by administering an initial dose of an LHRH analogue over a first period sufficient to effect hormonal castration, then administering a maintenance dose of an LHRH antagonist over a second period, the dose being insufficient to achieve and/or maintain hormonal castration.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine derivatives of the general Formula I, their preparation and use as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of malignant and other disorders based on pathological cell proliferations.

Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of formula I which are useful for elevating the plasma level of growth hormone in a mammal as well as for the treatment of growth hormone secretion deficiency, growth retardation in child and metabolic disorders associated with growth hormone secretion deficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of dementia and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease with intermediate doses of LHRH antagonists which do not cause a castration. A preferred LHRH antagonist is cetrorelix.
