Abstract

The invention relates to benzimidazole acetic acid compounds which function as antagonists of the Chemoattractant Receptor-homologous molecule expressed on T-Helper type 2 cells (CRTH2) receptor. The invention also relates to the use of these compounds to inhibit the binding of prostaglandin D 2 and its metabolites or certain thromboxane metabolites to the CRTH2 receptor and to treat disorders responsive to such inhibition.
