Abstract

The invention relates to the use of compounds of formula (I)

in the treatment of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase dependent diseases, methods of use of said compounds in the treatment of said diseases in a warm-blooded animal, especially a human, pharmaceutical preparations comprising said compounds for the treatment of said diseases and said compounds for use in the treatment of said diseases.

Claims

1. A method of inhibiting mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase in a patient with mTOR kinase dependent disease comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound 2-methyl-2-[4-(3-methyl-2-oxo-8-quinolin-3-yl-2,3-dihydro-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl)-phenyl]-propionitrile, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a patient in need thereof wherein said mTOR kinase dependent disease is selected from the group consisting of muscle wasting, atrophy and cachexia.
