Abstract: The present invention relates to inhibitors of the activity of Complex (III) of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and use thereof in treatment and/or prevention of cancers presenting tumor-initiating cells. The present invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing said inhibitors alone or in combination with other pharmaceutically active agents, and their use as medicaments or as agrochemicals where their properties as inhibitors of the mitochondrial respiration is of benefit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel azetidinone-containing compounds having a novel side-chain which is attached to the aryl ring at C4 via a C—C bond and comprises a 3,3-disubstituted oxetane ring and a polar group A, and which are useful in the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis and for the reduction of cholesterol levels.
