Abstract: This invention provides compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein G1, Q, D, and G2 are as defined above for Formula I. Compounds of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are inhibitors of MMP-13. The compounds are useful for treating diseases mediated by MMP-13, including the diseases recited herein such as breast cancer, cartilage damage, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

Abstract: Compounds having the formula (I), and pharmaceutically-acceptable salts, hydrates and prodrugs thereof, are useful as anti-inflammatory agents, in which R1, R2, and R3 are hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, or perfluoroalkyl; R4 is an optionally substituted alkyl or cycloalkyl group; X is a linker; A is an aryl, heteroaryl, heterocycle, cycloalkyl, or is absent; and R7 is a substituent on A as defined in the specification.

Abstract: This invention relates to a pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivative of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1, L1, L2, V, L3, and R2 are as defined in the specification, that inhibits a matrix metalloproteinase-13 enzyme and thus is useful for treating diseases resulting from MMP-13 mediated tissue breakdown such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, cartilage damage, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, heart failure, atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, age-related macular degeneration, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, periodontal diseases, psoriasis, cancer, and osteoporosis.

Abstract: Compounds having the formula (I), 1
