Abstract

The use of fused 1,2,4-triazoles for modulating the activity of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11βHSD1) and the use of these compounds as pharmaceutical compositions has been described. Also a novel class of fused 1,2,4-triazoles, their use in therapy, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, as well as their use in the manufacture of medicaments has been described. The present compounds are modulators and more specifically inhibitors of the activity of 11βHSD1 and may be useful in the treatment, prevention and/or prophylaxis of a range of medical disorders where a decreased intracellular concentration of active glucocorticoid is desirable.
