4-Amino-imidazoquinoline compounds and use thereof are disclosed. The compounds of the invention are Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) and TLR8 dual agonists, which exhibit activities in inducing IL-12 and IP-10 expression without over-inducing IL-6. The TLR 7/8 dual agonists are potentially useful medications as immune response modifiers. Use of a compound or salt thereof according to the invention in the manufacture of a medicament for treating a disease or a condition wherein activation of TLR7 and/or TLR8 provides a benefit in a subject in need thereof is disclosed. A compound or a pharmaceutical composition for use in treating a viral infection, cancer, and/or an allergic disease, or for use in activating immune responses that are effective against a viral infection, a tumor, and/or an allergic disease in a subject in need thereof is also disclosed.
本发明揭示了
4-氨基咪唑喹啉化合物及其用途。本发明的化合物是Toll样受体7(TLR7)和TLR8双激动剂,具有诱导IL-12和IP-10表达活性,而不会过度诱导IL-6。TLR 7/8双激动剂可能作为免疫应答调节剂而有用。本发明揭示了根据本发明的化合物或其盐在制造用于治疗疾病或病况的药物时,其中激活TLR7和/或TLR8对需要该益处的受试者有益。本发明还揭示了一种用于治疗病毒感染、癌症和/或过敏疾病,或用于激活免疫反应以对抗病毒感染、肿瘤和/或过敏疾病的有效化合物或药物组合。
