Claim:
A method to treat or ameliorate an inflammatory disorder or a symptom thereof, comprising administering to a patient an effective amount of a compound of general formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof: but excluding (S)-3-(1′-methylcyclohexylcarbonylamino)-caprolactam: wherein z is 1, 2, 3 or 4; A is —CO— or —SO 2 —; Q is linear or branched alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, oxyalkyl, aminoalkyl, alkylamino, alkylaminoalkyl, haloalkyl, aryl or substituted aryl, or tert-Butoxycarbonylamino; T 1 and T 2 together constitute a cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or polycycloalkyl radical composed of n additional carbon atoms, where n is between 2 and 7; and each hydrogen atom bonded to the carbon atoms in the ring generated by T 1 and T 2 may be independently substituted by a group R 1 , where R 1 is independently selected from an alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, alkenyl, alkynyl or alkylamino radical of 1 to 20 carbon atoms; or each R 1 is independently selected from fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo, hydroxy, oxyalkyl, amino, aminoalkyl or aminodialkyl radical.
