Biochem/physiol Actions
Gardiquimod is developed as a new imidazoquinoline compound. It stimulates NF-κB (nuclear factor-κB) activation in cells expressing human or murine toll like receptor 7 (TLR7). Gardiquimod is found to be ten times more efficient than imiquimod. It induces splenocyte activation and prevents murine B16 melanoma growth and metastasis. Gardiquimod might serve as a therapeutic agent to prevent HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus - 1) transmission. It hinders the life cycle of HIV-1, by blocking the action of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase.
Gardiquimod is a potent and specific agonist for human or mouse Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7).
Gardiquimod is a potent and specific agonist for human or mouse Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7). Also, at high concentration gardiquimod activates TLR8. Similarly to imiquimod, gardiquimod could mimic the effects of viral nucleic acids on the immune system.

Immune response modifiers are being studied as therapeutic agents for viral infections and cancer. These molecules include agonists for the Toll-like receptors (TLR), a family of innate immune receptors. TLR7 and 8, located in cellular endosomes, bind single-stranded RNA characteristic

Immunization with tumor neoantigens is a promising vaccine approach to promote antitumor immunity due to their high immunogenicity, lack of expression in normal tissue, and preferential induction of tumor neoantigen-specific T cells, which are central mediators of the anti-cancer response.
