Example 3B, (2010/01/31)
Novel monocyclic L- nucleoside compounds have general formula (I). Embodiments of these compounds are contemplated to be useful in treating a wide variety of diseases including infections, infestations, neoplasms, and autoimmune diseases. Viewed in terms of mechanism, embodiments of the novel compounds show immunomodulatory activity, and are expected to be useful in modulating the cytokine pattern, including modulation of Th 1 and Th 2 response.

A series of 1,2,4-triazole L-nucleosides were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to stimulate type i cytokine production by activated human T cells in direct comparison to the known active agent ribavirin. Among the compounds prepared, 1-β-L-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (5, ICN 17261) was found to be the most uniformly potent compound. Conversion of the 3-carboxamide group of 5 to a carboxamidine functionality resulted in 1-β-L- ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamidine hydrochloride (10), which induced cytokine levels comparable to 5 for two of the three type 1 cytokines examined. Modification of the carbohydrate moiety of 5 provided compounds of reduced activity. Significantly, ICN 17261 offers interesting immunomodulatory potential for the treatment of diseases where type I cytokines play an important role.
