  • Patent number: 9284301
    Abstract: The invention relates to compounds having the structure of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which are soluble guanylate cyclase activators. The compounds are capable of modulating the body's production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (“cGMP”) and are generally suitable for the therapy and prophylaxis of diseases which are associated with a disturbed cGMP balance. The compounds are useful for treatment or prevention of cardiovascular diseases, endothelial dysfunction, diastolic dysfunction, atherosclerosis, hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, angina pectoris, thromboses, restenosis, myocardial infarction, strokes, cardiac insufficiency, pulmonary hypertonia, erectile dysfunction, asthma bronchiale, chronic kidney insufficiency, diabetes, or cirrhosis of the liver.
