Abstract: The present invention is directed to compounds that may be used as agonists of prostaglandin receptors. More specifically, the specification describes methods and compositions for making and using DP1 receptor agonists that are pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives.

Abstract: The present invention relates to hydrazide derivatives of Formula I notably for use as pharmaceutically active compounds, as well as to pharmaceutical formulations containing such hydrazide derivatives. Said hydrazide derivatives are useful in the treatment of preterm labor, dysmenorrhea, fertility disorders, asthma, hypertension, undesired blood clotting, preelampsia, eclampsia, an eosinophil disorder, undesired bone loss, renal dysfunction, an immune deficiency disorder, ichthyosis, elevated intraocular pressure, infertility, sexual dysfunction, gastric ulcers and inflammatory disorders.

Abstract: The present invention provides 4-substituted-2-azetidinone compounds, bicyclic 2-5-diketopiperazine compounds, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof that are potent, safe and effective neuroprotective agents. Due to their strong central nervous system (CNS) activity, the compounds can be used to enhance memory and to treat a variety of neurological disorders. The compounds are particularly useful for treating neurological disorders caused by, or associated with, CNS trauma.

Abstract: The present invention relates ?-lactam derivatives, in particular for use as medicaments, as well as pharmaceutical formulations containing such ?-lactam derivatives. Said ?-lactam derivatives are useful in the treatment and/or prevention of asthma, hypertension, osteoporosis, sexual dysfunction and fertility disorders.

Abstract: 1,2-substituted 5-pyrrolidinone compounds are provided, and methods of treatment and pharmaceutical composition that utilize or comprise one or more such compounds. Compounds of the invention are useful for a variety of therapies, including treating or preventing preterm labor, dysmenorrhea, asthma, hypertension, infertility or fertility disorder, undesired blood clotting, preeclampsia or eclampsia, an eosinophil disorder, sexual dysfunction, osteporosis and other destructive bone disease or disorder, renal dysfunction, an immune deficiency disorder, dry eye, ichthyosis, elevated intraocular pressure, sleep disorder, or gastric ulcer, inflammatory disorders and other diseases and disorders associated with the prostaglandin family of compounds.

Abstract: Substituted pyrrolidine compounds are provided, and methods of treatment and pharmaceutical composition that utilize or comprise one or more such compounds. Compounds of the invention are useful for a variety of therapies, including treating or preventing preterm labor, dysmenorrhea, asthma, hypertension, infertility or fertility disorder, undesired blood clotting, preeclampsia or eclampsia, an eosinophil disorder, sexual dysfunction, osteporosis and other destructive bone disease or disorder, and other diseases and disorders associated with the prostaglandin family of compounds. In a preferred aspect, a substituted pyrrolidine compound is administered to a subject in coordination with a phosphodiesterase inhibitor compound.
