Nucleosides and other compounds to selectively modulate Th1 and Th2 responses relative to each other in the treatment of disease. In one aspect of the invention, administration of a nucleoside or other compound reduces the dosage at which a primary drug is administered. In another aspect of the invention, an abnormality reflected in increased response in one group of cytokines is treated by administering a nucleoside or other compound which increases response in another group of cytokines. In yet another aspect of the invention, a patient is prophylactically treated by administering a nucleoside or other compound which selectively reduces Th1 activity without significantly reducing Th2 activity. In yet another aspect of the invention, a nucleoside or other compound is administered to a patient at a dose which reduces the patient's GTP pool to a degree that selectively reduces one of the Th1 or Th2 response without significantly reducing the other response. Controlled release dosage forms are particularly contemplated to achieve that result.

L'invention concerne des nucléosides et d'autres composés permettant de moduler sélectivement des réponses Th1 et Th2 l'une par rapport à l'autre dans le traitement d'affections. Dans un aspect de l'invention, l'administration d'un nucléoside ou d'un autre composé permet de réduire la dose administrée d'un médicament principal. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention, on traite une anomalie révélée par une augmentation de la réponse dans un groupe de cytokines, par administration d'un nucléoside ou d'un autre composé qui augmente la réponse dans un autre groupe de cytokines. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention encore, un patient reçoit un traitement prophylactique consistant en l'administration d'un nucléoside ou d'un autre composé qui réduit sélectivement l'activité Th1, sans réduire de manière significative l'activité Th2. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention enfin, un nucléoside ou un autre composé est administré à un patient à une dose qui diminue le pool d'acide guanosine triphosphorique du patient à un degré réduisant sélectivement l'une des réponses Th1 ou Th2 sans réduction significative de l'autre réponse. Pour obtenir ce résultat, des formes de dosage par libération régulée sont particulièrement intéressantes.
