Essential for thymopoiesis and the development of several secondary lymphoid tissues, including lymph nodes. Involved in lineage specification of uncommitted CD4(+) T-helper cells into Th17 cells. Regulate the expression of several components of the circadian clock. Publication Abstract from PubMed Retinoic-acid-related orphan receptor gammat (RORgammat) is a key transcription factor implicated in the production of pro-inflammatory Th17 cytokines, which drive a number of autoimmune diseases. Despite diverse chemical series having been reported, combining high potency with a good physicochemical profile has been a very challenging task in the RORgammat inhibitor field. Based on available chemical structures and incorporating in-house knowledge, a new series of triazolo- and imidazopyridine RORgammat inverse agonists was designed. In addition, replacement of the terminal cyclopentylamide metabolic soft spot by five-membered heterocycles was investigated. From our efforts, we identified an optimal 6,7,8-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine core system and a 5-tert-butyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole as cyclopentylamide replacement leading to compounds 10 ((S)-N-(8-((4-(cyclopentanecarbonyl)-3-methylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl)-7-methylimida zo[1,2-a]pyridin-6-yl)-2-methylpyrimidine-5-carboxamide) and 33 ((S)-N-(8-((4-(5-(tert-butyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-3-methylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl )-7-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-6-yl)-2-methylpyrimidine-5-carboxamide). Both derivatives showed good pharmacological potencies in biochemical and cell-based assays combined with excellent physicochemical properties, including low to medium plasma protein binding across species. Finally, 10 and 33 were shown to be active in a rodent pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model after oral gavage at 15 mg kg-1 , lowering IL-17 cytokine production in ex vivo antigen recall assays.
