Application Number:09/462,001
Patent Claims:1. A method for treating or preventing glomerulopathy which comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable carrier: ##STR236## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each independently hydrogen atom, optionally substituted lower alkyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted aralkyl, optionally substituted heteroaryl or optionally substituted heteroarylalkyl; R.sup.3 is 1,4-phenylene or 2,5-thiophendiyl; R.sup.5 is hydrogen atom, hydroxy, optionally substituted lower alkyloxy, mercapto, lower alkylk thio, cycloalkyl, halogen, carboxy, lower alkyloxycarbonyl, nitro, cyano, lower hgaloalkyl, aryloxy, optionally substituted amino, guanidino, optionalyl substituted lower alkyl, lower alkenyl, lower alkynyl, acyl, acyoxy, --CONR.sup.A R.sup.B, --N(R.sup.C)COR.sup.D (wherein R.sup.A, R.sup.B and R.sup.C are the same or different selected from hydrogen atom, lower alkyl and aralkyl; R.sup.D is lower alkyl, aryl or aralkyl), optionally substituted non-aromatic heterocyclic group, or optionally substituted heteroaryl; Y is NHOH or OH;

its optically active substance, their pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof.

2. A method for treating or preventing glomerulopathy which comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of Formula (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable carrier: ##STR237## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and Y are as defined in claim 1; and R.sup.10 is hydrogen atom, optionally substituted lower alkyloxy, lower alkylthio, halogen, optionally substituted amino, optionally substituted lower alkyl or optionally substituted non-aromatic heterocyclic group;
