Abstract: This invention relates to novel heterocycles, including (S)-2-phenylsulfonylamino-3-???8-(2-pyridinylaminomethyl)-!-1-oxa-2-azaspi ro-?4,5!-dec-2-en-3-yl!carbonylamino! propionic acid, which are useful as antagonists of the .alpha..sub.v .beta..sub.3 integrin and related cell surface adhesive protein receptors, to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, processes for preparing such compounds, and to methods of using these compounds, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the inhibition of cell adhesion, the treatment of angiogenic disorders, inflammation, bone degradation, cancer metastasis, diabetic retinopathy, thrombosis, restenosis, macular degeneration, and other conditions mediated by cell adhesion and/or cell migration and/or angiogenesis.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel heterocycle compounds including but not limited to 3-?3-?3-(imidazolin-2-yl amino)propyloxy!isoxazol-5-ylcarbonylamino!-2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-pro pionic acid, which are useful as antagonists of the .alpha..sub.v .beta..sub.3 and related integrin receptors, to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, processes for preparing such compounds, and to methods of using these compounds, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the inhibition of cell adhesion and the treatment of angiogenic disorders, inflammation, bone degradation, tumors, metastases, thrombosis, and other cell aggregation-related conditions.
