Abstract: A pyrazolopyridine derivative represented by the following formula (I) or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof exhibits a strong EP1 receptor antagonistic effect. Thus, the derivative or the pharmacologically acceptable salt is useful as a therapeutic agent for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), particularly, overactive bladder syndrome (OABs), or a prophylactic agent therefor and furthermore, is also useful in the treatment, prevention, or suppression of various pathological conditions in which the EP1 receptor is involved, such as inflammatory disease, pain disease, osteoporosis, and cancer. [A is a benzene ring or the like, Y1 is C1-6 alkylene, R1 is —C(?O)—OZ1 or the like, Z1 is H or the like, R2 is a branched C3-6 alkyl group or the like, R3 is H or the like, R4 is a hydrogen atom or the like, and R5 is a hydrogen atom or the like].

Abstract: A novel fused bicyclic pyrimidine derivative or a salt thereof that acts as a tachykinin receptor antagonist and, in particular, as an NK1 receptor antagonist is represented by the following general formula (1): wherein the rings A and B are each a benzene ring having 1 to 3 substituents (any adjacent two of which may be bound to one another to form a ring); the ring C is a nitrogen-containing ring; R is a hydrogen atom, a C1 to C6 alkyl group, a C1 to C6 alkylcarbonyl group, or a C1 to C6 alkylsulfonyl group; m is 1 or 2; and n is 2 or 3.
