  • Patent number: 7125895
    Abstract: This invention relates to novel arylalkyl cyclic amine derivatives. This invention also relates to chemokine receptor antagonists that are be effective as therapeutic agents and/or preventive agents for diseases such as atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, transplant rejection, psoriasis, asthma, ulcerative colitis, glomerulonephritis, multiple sclerosis, pulmonary fibrosis, and myocarditis, in which tissue infiltration of blood monocytes and lymphocytes plays a major role in the initiation, progression or maintenance of the disease. Furthermore, chemokine receptor antagonists also inhibit the interaction of viruses, which attack blood monocytes and lymphocytes, through the use of a chemokine receptor. One such example is the HIV virus.
