Based on our previous research on cysticidal drugs, we report the synthesis and evaluation of three new benzimidazole derivatives. In these compounds, the amido group was used as a bioisosteric replacement of the ester group. The molecular docking on β-tubulin revealed that the derivatives interacted through hydrogen bonding with N165, E198 and V236. All compounds showed in vitro activity against Taenia crassiceps cysts. Among them, benzimidazole 3 was found to be the most potent of the series (EC50 0.86 µM). This compound also exhibited the highest probability of binding and the lowest binding free energy score and was therefore selected for in vivo evaluation. Results indicated that the efficacy of compound 3 was comparable to that of the reference drug, albendazole (50.39 vs. 47.16% parasite reduction). Animals treated with compound 3 seemed to tolerate this benzimidazole well, with no changes in behavior, or food and water consumption. These findings are consistent with the in silico prediction results, which indicated low toxicity risks. The pharmacokinetic study showed that the half-life and mean residence time (6.06 and 11.9 h, respectively) were long after oral administration. Together, these results indicate that this new benzimidazole derivative represents a promising structure with cysticidal activity.
