Abstract: Novel compounds having general formula (I), and pharmaceutically and veterinarily acceptable salts thereof wherein R1, R2, R3, W, Y1, Y2, X, n and y are as defined above and processes for their preparation and intermediate compounds prepared therein. The novel compounds are useful for having utility in the treatment of pruritic dermatoses including allergic dermatitis and atopy in animals and humans.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a crystalline form of 6-[(2,2-diphenylethyl)amino]-9-(N-ethyl-&bgr;-D-ribofuranosyluronamide)-N-(2-{N′-[1-(2-pyridyl)-4-piperidyl]ureido}ethyl)-9H-purine-2-carboxamide and to a process for the preparation of, compositions containing and the uses of such a crystalline form.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a combination of a crystalline form of 6-[(2,2-diphenylethyl)amino]-9-(N-ethyl-&bgr;-D-ribofuranosyluronamide)-N-(2-{N′-[1-(2-pyridyl)-4-piperidyl]ureido}ethyl)-9H-purine-2-carboxamide and a tiotropium salt. Such a combination is useful in the treatment of respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
