Abstract: The use of substituted amides for modulating the activity of 11?-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11?HSD1) and the use of these compounds as pharmaceutical compositions, are described. Also a novel class of substituted amides, of the general formula I. Their use in therapy, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, as well as their use in the manufacture of medicaments are described. The present compounds are modulators and more specifically inhibitors of the activity of 11?HSDI and may be useful in the treatment of a range of medical disorders where a decreased intracellular concentration of active glucocorticoid is desirable.

Abstract: A novel class of compounds of the general formula (I), their use in therapy, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, as well as their use in the manufacture of medicaments are described. The present compounds modulate the activity of 11?-hydroxy-steroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 ?HSD1) and are accordingly useful in the treatment of diseases in which such a modulation is beneficial, e.g the metabolic syndrome.
