Abstract: Immune response modifier compounds—imidazoquinoline amines, imidazopyridine amines, 6,7-fused cycloalkylimidazopyridine amines, and 1,2-bridged imidazoquinoline amines—are useful for the treatment of TH2 mediated diseases by administering a therapeutically effective amount of such compounds in order to inhibit TH2 immune response, suppress IL-4/1L-5 cytokine induction and eosinophilia, as well as enhance TH1 immune response.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical gel formulations for topical drug delivery include drug, colloidal silicon dioxide, triacetin and, preferably, propylene glycol. The gel formulations are well suited for topical delivery of the drug 4-amino-2-ethoxymethyl-&agr;,&agr;-dimethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-1-ethanol, which when applied topically induces cytokines, such as interferon and tumor necrosis factor, locally in the skin or mucous membranes of a mammal. The gel formulations are also well-suited for topical delivery of drugs for treatment of diseases involving skin and/or mucosal lesions because the gel formulations do not need to include irritating components.

Abstract: An immunogen/vaccine adjuvant composition containing an immunogen in an amount effective to stimulate an immune response and as a vaccine adjuvant a 1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amine in an amount effective to increase the immune response to the immunogen.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical gel formulations for topical drug delivery include drug, colloidal silicon dioxide, triacetin and, preferably, propylene glycol. The gel formulations are well suited for topical delivery of the drug 4-amino-2-ethoxymethyl-.alpha.,.alpha.-dimethyl-1H-imidazo?4,5-c!quinoline -1-ethanol, which when applied topically induces cytokines, such as interferon and tumor necrosis factor, locally in the skin or mucous membranes of a mammal.
