Abstract: The present invention is directed to carbocyclic hydrazino compounds that function as inhibitors of copper-containing amine oxidases commonly known as semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidases (SSAO), including the human SSAO known as Vascular Adhesion Protein-I (VAP-1). These SSAO inhibitors have therapeutic utility as drugs to treat conditions and diseases including, but not limited to, a number of inflammatory conditions and diseases (in particular chronic inflammatory conditions such as chronic arthritis, inflammatory bowel diseases, and chronic skin dermatoses), diseases related to carbohydrate metabolism and to aberrations in adipocyte differentiation or function and smooth muscle cell function, and vascular diseases. The novel compounds have the general formula: or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate, hydrate, or salt thereof wherein R1 to R11 are as defined herein.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an ophthalmic composition in the form of a topical aqueous solution consisting essentially ofan ophthalmologically active agent containing basic groups,an ion sensitive, hydrophilic polymer containing acidic groups in an amount of 0.004 to 1.5% by weight,at least one salt selected from the group of inorganic salts and buffers in a total amount of from 0.01 to 2.0% by weight,and optionally a wetting agent and a preservative, the ratio between salt and polymer being such that the solution exhibits a viscosity of less than 1000 mpas, and the pH of the solution is 4.0 to 8.0. The composition contains a sufficient amount of polymer to provide for a controlled absorption of the drug into the eye, its viscosity having been reduced to provide for better handling characteristics.
