Abstract: wherein A1, A2, R3, Rb, Rc, Rd, R3, R4, R5 and T are as defined in the description. Medicinal products containing the same which are useful in treating pathologies involving a deficit in apoptosis, such as cancer, auto-immune diseases, and diseases of the immune system.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for automatically taking actions based on triggering events in market data using a filter component are disclosed. Market trading information is received, including one or more bids and one or more asks. An triggered virtual order is received via a filter component of a graphical user interface (GUI), including a triggering event and associated action. Upon detecting, in the market trading information, an occurrence of the triggering event, the associated action is triggered. The action can include generating an alert and/or submitting an order to a marketplace based on the untriggered virtual order. In some implementations, the filter component can display a filtered portion of the market trading information, and an untriggered virtual order can be configured via the filter component by selecting a bid or ask.
