High-throughput screening identified a low molecular weight antagonist of CXCR3 displaying micromolar activity in a membrane filtration-binding assay. Systematic modification of the benzimidazole core and tethered acetophenone moiety established tractable SAR of analogs with improved physicochemical properties and sub-micromolar activity across both human and murine receptors.
