Abstract: This invention relates to novel 8-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane derivatives useful as monoamine neurotransmitter re-uptake inhibitors. In other aspects the invention relates to the use of these compounds in a method for therapy and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the medical use of a certain group of diphenyl urea derivatives as potassium channel blockers for treating cardiovascular diseases, an obstructive or inflammatory airway disease, urinary incontinence, psychosis, epilepsy or pain, or for facilitating the blood-brain barrier permeability for other therapeutic substances. In other aspects the invention relates to the use of these compounds in a method of therapy.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel urea derivatives, which are found to be modulators of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Due to their pharmacological profile the compounds of the invention may be useful for the treatment of diseases or disorders as diverse as those related to the cholinergic system of the central nervous system (CNS), the peripheral nervous system (PNS), diseases or disorders related to smooth muscle contraction, endocrine diseases or disorders, diseases or disorders related to neuro-degeneration, diseases or disorders related to inflammation, pain, and withdrawal symptoms caused by the termination of abuse of chemical substances.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel diphenylurea derivatives useful as chloride channel blockers. In other aspects the invention relates to the use of these compounds in a method for therapy, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel compounds useful as modulators of the KCNQ channel, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, and to methods of treatment herewith.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel diarylurea derivatives useful as chloride channel blockers. In other aspects the invention relates to the use of these compounds in a method for therapy, such as for the treatment of bone metabolic diseases, diseases responsive to modulation of the mast cell or basophil activity, diseases responsive to inhibition of angiogenesis, or sickle cell anaemia, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of certain compounds for the treatment of diseases that are responsive to antiangiogenetic therapy. Excessive angiogenesis occurs in diseases such as cancer, diabetic blindness, age-related macular degeneration, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. The compounds are particularly useful for anti-metastatic treatment or for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use certain compounds for the treatment, prevention or alleviation of a disorder or disease of a subject, which disorder or disease is responsive to modulation of the mast cell or basophil activity of such a subject.
