Abstract

CCR1 antagonists were prepared by coupling bridged piperazines and bridged piperidines with 2- acetylamino-4-chloro-5-methoxy cinnamic acid. Compound 2 of the series showed the desired equal potency against human, mouse and rat CCR1 (IC50= 20; 22; 28nM), exhibited a superior pharmacokinetic profile and inhibited the clinical grades in rat acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and knee swelling in rat antigen induced arthritis at doses of 2 x 30 and 2 x 15 mg/kg p.o.
