This invention is directed generally to heteroarylsulfonylmethyl hydroxamic acids and amides that, inter alia, tend to inhibit protease activity, particularly matrix metalloproteinase (also known as 'matrix metalloprotease' or 'MMP') activity and/or aggrecanase activity. This invention also is directed to compositions of such compounds; intermediates for the syntheses of such compounds; methods for making such compounds; and methods for treating conditions associated with MMP, tumor necrosis factors (or 'TNFs'), and/or aggrecanase activity, particularly pathological conditions.
