We propose two models based on the SUð3ÞC × SUð3ÞL × Uð1ÞX gauge symmetry, each incorporating distinct inverse seesaw mechanisms for generating neutrino masses at the radiative level. Therefore, neutrino masses are suppressed by the radiative nature of the mass generation mechanism, which occurs after the spontaneous breaking of the global lepton number symmetry. Both scenarios discussed here are characterized by the presence of vectorlike charged leptons, which are involved in generating the masses of the Standard Model charged leptons. These additional vectorlike fermions also contribute to the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon. We perform a detailed analysis of the scalar sectors, show that these models can successfully accommodate the observed baryon asymmetry through resonant leptogenesis, and compute the rates of charged lepton flavor-violating decays, such as μ → eγ. We discuss the constraints of the model arising from these processes and those associated with the nonunitarity of the lepton mixing matrix.
