Abstract: The invention provides N-cyclic sulfonamido compounds and salts of Formula I: wherein A is as described in the specification and R1 and R2 combine to form a [3.3.1] or a [3.2.1] ring system, where the nitrogen is attached to the two bridgehead carbons, and the [3.3.1] or [3.2.1] ring systems are optionally fused with an heteroaryl or heterocycloalkyl ring. Compounds of Formula I are useful in treating or preventing cognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer's Disease. The invention also encompasses pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of Formula I, methods of treating cognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, and the intermediates useful in preparing the compounds of Formula I.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formulae (I)-(XII), wherein R1-R71, A, B, X, Y, G, L and Z are defined herein, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. These compounds modulate the activity of c-Met and are therefore expected to be useful in the prevention and treatment of c-Met related disorders such as cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to altering the physical and/or chemical properties of at least part of at least one tissue in the eye. In a specific embodiment, it relates to the treatment and/or prevention of myopia. An activating energy source is utilized to photopolymerize or crosslink molecules in the sclera, thereby increasing the strength of the tissue. The individual is administered a crosslinking reagent or photopolymerizable molecule that becomes associated with the membrane, which is then precisely exposed to an energy source, such as light or ultrasound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to certain 3-[4-(substituted heterocyclyl)-pyrrol-2-ylmethylidene]-2-indolinone derivatives that inhibit kinases, in particular VEGFR and/or PDGFR kinases. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, methods of treating diseases mediated by kinases utilizing pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, and methods of preparing them are also disclosed.
