and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; wherein the variables R.sup.A, R.sup.AA, subscript n, subscript q, ring A, X.sup.2, L, subscript m, X.sup.1, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, D and E have the meaning as described herein, and compositions containing such compounds and methods for using such compounds and compositions.

The present invention discloses an N-sulfonyl benzamide derivative with a heterocyclic substituent, and a preparation method therefor and a pharmaceutical application thereof. More specifically, the invention discloses a compound represented by formula (II) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, solvent compound, or prodrug thereof, and a preparation method therefor and an application thereof. Refer to the specification for definitions of each group in the

##STR00001##

Compounds of formula (I):

##STR00001##

where R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4a, R.sup.4b, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are defined herein, or stereoisomers or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are described herein. Such compounds have activity as SHIP1 modulators, and thus may be used to treat any of a variety of diseases, disorders or conditions that would benefit from SHIP1 modulation. Compositions comprising a compound of formula (I) in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent are also disclosed, as are methods of SHIP1 modulation by administration of such compounds to an animal in need thereof.
