Abstract:
1. A method of inducing cytokine biosynthesis in an animal comprising administering a compound selected from the group consisting of N-(2-{2-[4-amino-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]ethoxy}ethyl)methanesulfonamide; N-(2-{2-[4-amino-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]ethoxy}ethyl)methanesulfonamide; N-(2-{2-[4-amino-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]ethoxy}ethyl)-N-methylmethanesulfonamide; N-(2-{2-[4-amino-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]ethoxy}ethyl)-N-methylmethanesulfonamide; 2-butyl-1-{2-[2-(1,1-dioxidoisothiazolidin-2-yl)ethoxy]ethyl}-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine; and N-[10-(4-amino-2-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl)-4,7-dioxadecyl]-5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonamide; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to the animal in an amount effective for cytokine induction.
