BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:

Prostaglandin D2(PGD2) isan acidic lipid mediator derived from arachidonic acid by the sequential action of cyclooxygenase(s) (COX) and PGD2 synthase(s). PGD2 is released largely by activated mast cells in addition to some contribution from other leukocytes such as dendritic cells and T-helper 2 (Th2) cells and plays a key role in inflammatory response in allergic conditions. PGD2 exerts its actions through interaction with G-protein-coupled receptors, which include prostanoid receptor DP1 and DP2 or CRTH2 (chemoattractant receptor homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells) receptor. The DP1 receptor largely mediates the vascular effects of PGD2 such as stimulation of vasodilation and inhibition of platelet aggregation, whereas the CRT H 2 receptor primarily mediates the inflammatory effects of PGD2. CRTH2 receptors, are typically highly expressed on eosinophils, basophils and T-helper 2 cells are known to be involved in chemotaxis and activation of these cells, which form the key events initiating the inflammatory response in allergic diseases(Clin Pharmacol Drug Dev.2016J ul; 5(4): 306- 13).

In vivo, injection of PGD2 leads to the exacerbation of allergic responses in the lungs and skin of mice, an effect also demonstrated using DK-PGD2, natural selective CRTH2 agonist, indicating an important role CRTH2 in the recruitment of Th2 lymphocytes and other leukocytes to sites of allergic inflammation (Nat Rev Drug Discov. 2007 Apr; 6(4) : 313-25) . T he i importance ofPGD2-CRTH2 system i n al I ergi c ski n condi ti on is further demonstrated in CRTH2-deficient mice where these mice exhibit reduced skin responses upon exposure to allergen (J Immunol. 2006 Aug 15; 177(4): 2621 -9). Simi larly, correlation between CRT H2 levels on circulating T cells and the severity of atopic dermatitis has also been demonstrated (Int Immunol. 2004J ul; 16(7): 947-59).

Presence of an allergen is known to trigger the production of PG D2 in sensitized individuals. In asthmatics, a bronchial allergen challenge leads to the rapid production of PG D2. Local antigen challenge also stimulates PG D2 production in the nasal mucosa of patients with allergic rhinitis and in the skin of patients with atopic dermatitis (Nat Rev Drug Discov. 2007 Apr; 6(4): 313-25).

C RT H2 activation appears to have a crucial role in mediating allergic responses, and thus the use of antagonists of the C RT H2 receptor are an attractive approach to treat the inflammatory component of allergic diseases such as asthma, rhinitis, and dermatitis.

Several potent and selective C RT H2 antagonists are being investigated for clinical use si nee 2006 as new compounds for the treatment of diseases associated with al lergy and asthma (Expert Opin Ther Pat 2010 Nov; 20(11): 1505-30).

Inspite of diverse CRT H2 antagonist compounds being developed, there remai ns an unmet need to identify and develop novel compounds acting as C RT H2 antagonists which demonstrate desired efficacy and safety profile.

WO2010083725 discloses cephalosporin derivatives containing substituted nitrogen-containing fused heterocyclic ring having good anti microbial activities and can be effecti ve i ngredi ents of agents for treati ng i nf ecti ons.

WO2009108551 and W 02009023623 disclose heteroaryl amide analogues acting as dopami ne agonists and as P2X 7 receptor modulators.

W 02004022551 discloses furan and thiophene derivatives which act as PPAR regulators as well as G PR40 agonists. Similarly, W 02006060535 discloses compounds active on PPARs which can be used in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a PPA R-mediated disease or condition or a disease or condition i n which modulation of a PPA R provides a therapeutic benefit.

WO 2003035005 discloses heteroindane analogues having affinity to cannabinoid receptors.

WO2014187928 discloses novel heterocyclic compounds as pest control agents.

Present invention provides novel substituted indazole compounds as CRT H2 antagonists which have demonstrated desired efficacy and safety profile. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:

In one embodiment the present invention provides novel compounds of formula

Biological testing:

Biological example 1 : in-vitro studies

In-vitro assay for C RT H 2 antagonistic activity

Human Prostanoid Receptor DP2 (CRT H2) Aequorin Cell line from PerkinE lmer was employed. Cells contained the sequence coding for the human Prostanoid Receptor CRT H2 transfected in CHO-K 1 cells expressing G 16 and mitochondrial ly targeted Aequorin. Cells were cultured with antibiotics Zeocin (final conc.0.25mg/ml) and G418 (fi nal conc.0.4nrg/ml) in growth medium Ham s F-12.

Cells were grown in antibiotic free growth medium for 18 hours and detached gently with fresh PBS/D.5mM E DTA. After recovering by centrifugation, cells were resuspended in assay buffer (DM E M/HA M ^" s-F12 with HE PES without phenol red + 0.1 % BSA) at concentration of 9X 10 ⁵ cells /ml. Under sterile condition, ^" coelenterazine h_ was added at a final concentration of 5i M. These eel Is were i ncubated at 21 eC protected from light and with constant gentle agitation overnight. Next day cells were diluted in assay buffer to get final concentration 3X 10 ⁵ cells/ml and incubated as described above for 60 minutes. For measurement of activity of compounds, _25 ι I cells were dispended in 384 optiplate (7500 eel I s Wei I ) and 25 1 I sol uti on of compound(s) of present i nventi on was added. After 15 min of incubation, 25i I PG D2 was injected by injector to get final concentration equivalent to EC80 using E nvision (Perkin E lmer) automatic injection system (Stock of PG D2 and compounds were prepared in DMSO and diluted in assay buffer so that final cone, of DMSO <1% in well.) Immediately after PG D2 addition, calcium released was measured by recording relative light emission (R LU) for 70 seconds for each well in E nvision Multilabel Reader.

Area under curve was obtained and % inhibition was calculated by considering agonist control as 100%. Results are summarized in the table given below. T able 2

Biological example 2: in-vivo studies

In vivo efficacy evaluation in mice:

Animal model Mouse model for FITC (Fluorescein isothiocyanate)- induced allergic cutaneous inflammation bear resemblance with acute atopic dermatitis lesions. Sensitization of mice by topical application of FITC results in increased IgE levels, as well as the development of FITC specific Th2 cells. Antigen challenge by applying FITC to the ear 6 days post- sensitization results in cutaneous inflammation characterized by edema and large infiltration of inflammatory cells as mononuclear cells, eosinophils and neutrophils (Boehme SA et al., Int Immunol. 2009J an;21(1):81-93).

In-vivo efficacy studies in mice:

Efficacy of Compound no. 36 was evaluated in FITC-induced al lergic cutaneous inflammation in female BA L B/c mice. Mice were prepared for sensitization on day 0 by carefully removing hair from their bel ly using an electric hair clipper under isoflurane anesthesia. On day 1 and day 2, 400 ι L of 0.5% FITC solution was painted on the shaved ventral skin (dissolved in acetone : di butyl phthalate, 1 :1 v/v). Further on day 8, the mice were challenged with 0.5% FITC on the right ear (20 ι I volume). Mice in different treatment groups were treated with 100mg cream containing 1% or 2.2% Compound no. 36 applied topically on right ear 2 hours before and 5 hours after the FITC challenge. Mice in FITC control group were applied placebo cream. 24 hours after the FITC challenge, the right ear thickness was determined using digital V ernier caliper in anesthetized mice and histopathological analysis of formalin fixed right ear sections was performed after Hematoxylin and eosin staining (Fig 2). The results of change in ear thickness measurement has been represented graphically in Figure 1 (Data represent mean e standard error of mean). * denotes p<0.05 versus FITC control group using one way A NOV A followed by Dunnetfs post hoc analysis.
