A novel N-aryl piperazine-1-carboxamide series of human CCR2 chemokine receptor antagonists was discovered. Early analogues were potent at CCR2 but also inhibited the hERG cardiac ion channel. Structural modifications which decreased lipophilicity and basicity resulted in the identification of a sub-series with an improved margin over hERG. The pharmacological and pharmacokinetic properties of the lead compound from this series, N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-[(2R)-4-isopropylpiperazine-2-carbonyl] piperazine-1-carboxamide, are described.
