Abstract: The present invention provides immunomodulatory compositions include an immune response modifier moiety coupled to a targeting moiety. In another aspect, the invention provides methods of providing targeted delivery of an IRM, generating a localized immune response, and treating a condition in a subject. Generally, the methods include administering to the subject an immunomodulatory composition that includes an immune response modifier moiety coupled to a targeting moiety that recognizes a delivery target.

Abstract: Methods for screening for compounds that selectively induce IFN-? production and methods for ameliorating conditions in a patient using a small molecule that selectively induces the production of IFN-? are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods for identifying a compound that activates a TLR-mediated cellular signaling pathway is disclosed. The method includes (a) exposing a TLR-positive cell culture to a test compound and measuring a TLR-mediated cellular response; (b) exposing a TLR-negative cell culture to a test compound and measuring a TLR-mediated cellular response; and (c) identifying the test compound as an IRM if the cellular response in the TLR-positive cell culture is greater than the cellular response of the TLR-negative cell culture. Methods of eliciting a TLR-mediated cellular response are also disclosed. Such methods include administration of an IRM compound to an IRM-responsive cell so that the IRM compound affects at least one TLR-mediate cellular signaling pathway.

Abstract: The present invention provides therapeutic combinations that include an immune response modifier (IRM) component and an anti-inflammatory component. The inventions further provide methods of treating a condition by administering to one having the condition a therapeutic combination that includes an IRM component and an anti-inflammatory component.

Abstract: The present invention provides immunomodulatory combinations that includes an IRM component and a therapeutic agent, each in an amount that, when in combination with the other, is effective for inducing an immune response in a subject.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of activating neutrophils. Generally, the method includes contacting neutrophils with a neutrophil-activating IRM compound and/or a TLR8-selective agonist in an amount effective to activate the neutrophils. In some embodiments, the method may be used to treat a condition treatable by activating neutrophils. In another aspect, the invention provides pharmaceutical compositions that generally include a neutrophil-activating IRM compound and/or a TLR8-selective agonist, or a pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof, in an amount effective to activate neutrophils.

Abstract: The present invention provides immunostimulatory combinations and methods. Generally, the immunostimulatory combinations include a topical formulation of an IRM compound and a pharmaceutical composition. Generally, the methods include administering (a) a topical formulation of an IRM compound, and (b) a pharmaceutical composition to an administration site of a subject.
