Described are RORγ modulators of the formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein all substituents are defined herein. The invention includes stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of formula I, including stereoisomerically-pure, scalemic and racemic form, as well as tautomers thereof. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Such compounds and compositions are useful in methods for modulating RORγ activity in a cell and methods for treating a subject suffering from a disease or disorder in which the subject would therapeutically benefit from modulation of RORγ activity, for example, autoimmune and/or inflammatory disorders. ##STR00001##

Vaccination is the most prevalent prophylactic means for controlling seasonal influenza infections. However, an effective vaccine usually takes at least 6 months to develop for the circulating strains. Therefore, new therapeutic options are needed for acute treatment of influenza infections to control this virus and prevent epidemic/pandemic situations from developing. Described herein are fast-acting, orally active acylated amino-substituted heterocyclyl compounds effective to control this virus. In one aspect, described herein is a method of treating an influenza infection in a subject comprising administering to the subject the compounds described herein.
