Abstract: Compounds of formula I are provided, which are JAK inhibitors and are useful for the treatment of JAK-mediated diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, COPD and cancer.

Abstract: The invention involves compounds of structural Formula (I) and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of the invention are effective at selectively inhibiting CYP11B2, and are therefore useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders that are associated with elevated aldosterone levels, including, but not limited to, hypertension and heart failure.

Abstract: The invention relates to 1H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-c]pyridine-4-carbonitrile derived Cathepsin S inhibitors of Formula (I), wherein R1 is H or (C1-3)alkyl; R2 is halogen or (C1-4)alkyl, optionally substituted with one or more halogens; n is 1-3; X is O or CH2; U, V and W are CH; or one of U, V and W is N; Y is a group capable of interacting with the Sn . . . S2 substites of the active site of Cathepsin S; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same as well as to the use of these derivatives for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of cathepsin S related diseases such as atherosclerosis, obesity, inflammation and immune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, cancer, and chronic pain, such as neuropathic pain.
