Abstract: The present invention is directed to caprolactams which are positive allosteric modulators of metabotropic glutamate receptors, particularly the mGluR5 receptor, and which are useful in the treatment or prevention of neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with glutamate dysfunction and diseases in which metabotropic glutamate receptors are involved. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and the use of these compounds and compositions in the prevention or treatment of such diseases in which metabotropic glutamate receptors are involved.

Abstract: Compounds having the structure: are HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors, wherein A, X, Y, Z, R1 and R2 are defined herein. The compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful in the inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase, the prophylaxis and treatment of infection by HIV and in the prophylaxis, delay in the onset, and treatment of AIDS. The compounds and their salts can be employed as ingredients in pharmaceutical compositions, optionally in combination with other antivirals, immunomodulators, antibiotics or vaccines.

Abstract: This invention relates to potent potassium channel blocker compounds of Formula I or a formulation thereof for the treatment of glaucoma and other conditions which leads to elevated intraocular pressure in the eye of a patient. This invention also relates to the use of such compounds to provide a neuroprotective effect to the eye of mammalian species, particularly humans.
