Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same for the treatment, amelioration and/or prevention of disease. In some embodiments, the disease is a bacterial infection. In some embodiments, the bacterial infection is caused by one or more bacterium belonging to a genus of non-tuberculous Mycobacteria, preferably M. abscessus.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new norbornen analogues of formula (I), wherein the norbornen moiety is in R5 and to the use of norbornen analogues as a drug, in particular for the prevention and/or treatment of a mycobacterial infection or for the prevention and/or treatment of a disease caused by infection with a mycobacterium.

Abstract: The present invention concerns new tricyclic spirolactams (TriSLas) compounds and their use as a drug, in particular for the prevention and/or treatment of a mycobacterial infection or for the treatment of a disease caused by infection with a Mycobacterium. The tuberculosis drug development pipeline requires further supplementation with additional candidates, ideally acting on novel targets (to minimize cross-resistance) and impacting on drug-tolerant bacilli to shorten treatment. The inventors of the present invention have identified new tricyclic spirolactams (TriSLas) compounds with particular activity against M. tuberculosis.

Abstract: The present invention concerns novel Gram-negative bacteria efflux pump inhibitors. It further relates to the use of Gram-negative bacteria efflux pump inhibitors to prevent and/or treat antibiotic resistance by potentiating the activity of antibiotics. Infections by multidrug resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria are a major threat to global healthcare. The inventors have discovered a novel class of Resistance Nodulation cell Division-efflux pump inhibitors. The inventors tested the effects of these inhibitors on growth inhibition of different bacteria as well as their impact on the boosting of antibiotic activity in different bacteria. Particularly, the inventors tested the effects of these inhibitors on E. coli, A. baumamnii, K. pneumoniae and P. aeruginosa.

Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of Formula (I) and their use in therapy, for example in the treatment of mycobacterial infections or in the treatment of diseases caused by mycobacterium, such as tuberculosis.
