Abstract

Imidazoquinoline and tetrahydroimidazoquinoline compounds that contain ether and sulfonamide or sulfamide functionality at the 1-position are useful as immune response modifiers. The compounds and compositions of the invention can induce the biosynthesis of various cytokines and are useful in the treatment of a variety of conditions including viral diseases and neoplastic diseases.

Claims (15)

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.

2. A method of treating a viral disease in an animal in need thereof comprising administering to the animal a therapeutically effective amount of 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, that induces cytokine biosynthesis.
