Abstract
The present invention is directed to compounds of the formula I: 1 (wherein R1, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, X, n, x and y are defined herein) which are useful as modulators of chemokine receptor activity. In particular, these compounds are useful as modulators of the chemokine receptors CCR-5 and/or CC R-3.
