Page/Page column 69, (2010/02/11)
The present invention relates to novel, non-secosteroidal, sulfonate and sulfonamide functional diaryl compounds with vitamin D receptor (VDR) modulating activity that are less hypercalcemic than 1α,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3. These compounds are useful for treating bone disease and psoriasis. X-15439
Vitamin D3 mimics

The present invention relates to non-secosteroidal compounds which activate and modulate the vitamin D receptor (VDR). Because compounds of the present invention display many of the beneficial properties of 1,25(OH)2D3, but with reduced calcium mobilization effects, they may be used advantageously to treat and prevent conditions that show vitamin D sensitivity. Such disease states typically show abnormal calcium regulatory, abnormal immune responsive, hyperproliferative, and/or neurodegenerative characteristics.
