  • Patent number: 7393840
    Abstract: The present invention relates to formulations based on at least one heparin, glycosaminoglycan or heparinoid and on a formulation base with a lipid component and a polymer component. The use of this formulation as drug form for oral administration of at least one heparin, glycosaminoglycan or heparinoid, and also a process for producing the formulations by mixing the formulation components to form a plastic mixture and, where appropriate, to manufacture the formulations as drug form, advantageously using melt extrusion, are described. The lipid component advantageously has active ingredient-promoting properties, while the polymer component is soluble or swellable. At least parts of the lipid component are embedded in a polymer matrix, preferably in the form of a molecular dispersion. The formulations can form emulsions in water or aqueous liquids.

  • Patent number: 7365088
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of the formula I wherein J1, J2, R0, R1, R2, Q, V, G and M are as defined herein. The compounds of the formula I are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. They exhibit a strong antithrombotic effect and are suitable, for example, for the therapy and prophylaxis of cardiovascular disorders like thromboembolic diseases or restenoses. They are reversible inhibitors of the blood clotting enzymes factor Xa (FXa) and/or factor VIIa (FVIIa), and can in general be applied in conditions in which an undesired activity of factor Xa and/or factor VIIa is present or for the cure or prevention of which an inhibition of factor Xa and/or factor VIIa is intended. The invention furthermore relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula I, their use, in particular as active ingredients in pharmaceuticals, and pharmaceutical preparations comprising them.

  • Patent number: 6382367
    Abstract: An actuating piston (10) of a hydraulically and mechanically actuable, spot-type disk brake for motor vehicles, which is disposed in a sealing and displaceable manner in a cylinder bore of the disk brake is provided with an axial-force-transmitting conical surface (18) cooperating with a corresponding conical surface of a mechanical actuating device of the disk brake. To make the actuating piston (10) lighter in weight but nevertheless to withstand greater stress, the part of the actuating piston (10) comprising the axial-force-transmitting conical surface (18) consists of steel and the part of the actuating piston (10) cooperating with the cylinder bore of the disk brake is made of light metal or of plastics material, said components of the actuating piston being constructed as a single-piece composite component.
