CA 2658016

The invention provides the use of a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist for the manufacture of a medicament for immune stimulation, such as prevention or treatment of infections or infectious conditions, in an aging mammalian subject, a mammalian subject with low serum DHEAS v a l u e s, a mammalian subject with a high serum cortisol/DHEAS ratio or a mammalian subject with high neutrophil counts. In particular, the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist can be chosen from the group consisting of a dibenzopyranyl derivative defined and/or exemplified in US6329534 and WO200116128, mifepristone, and (11.beta.,17.beta.)-11-(1,3-benzodioxol-5- yl)-17-hydroxy-17-(1-propynyl)estra-4,9-dien-3-one.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation d'un antagoniste d'un récepteur de glucocorticoïde pour fabriquer un médicament destiné à stimuler le système immunitaire, par exemple pour la prévention ou le traitement d'infections ou de condi'affections infectieuses, chez un sujet mammifère âgé, un sujet mammifère présentant de faibles valeurs de DHEAS sérique, un sujet mammifère présentant un ratiopport sérique cortisol/DHEAS élevé ou un sujet mammifère présentant des taux élevés de neutrophiles. En particulier, l'antagoniste due récepteur de glucocorticoïde peut être choisi dans le groupe comprenant un dérivé dibenzopyranyle défini et/ou décrit à titre d'exemple dans les documents 'US 6 329 534 et le WO 2001/16128, la mifépristone et la (11.beta.,17.beta.)-11-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-17-hydroxy-17-(1-propynyl)AEstra-4,9-dién-3-one.
