Discovery and characterization of potent and selective 4-oxo-4-(5-(5-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)indolin-1-yl)butanoic acids as S1P₁ agonists.

S1P(1) receptor driven lymphopenia has proven utility in the treatment of an array of autoimmune disease states. As a part of our efforts to develop potent and selective S1P(1) receptor agonists, we have identified a novel chemical series of 4-oxo-4-(5-(5-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)indolin-1-yl)butanoic acid S1P(1) receptor agonists.
