Unleashing the Power of Covalent Drugs for Protein Degradation. (PubMed, Med Res Rev)
Two prominent PROTACs, ARV-471 and ARV-110, are currently undergoing phase III and II clinical trials, respectively. The concept of covalent degradation has also been utilized in various new forms of degraders, including covalent molecule glue (MG), in-cell click-formed proteolysis targeting chimera (CLIPTAC), HaloPROTAC, lysosome-targeting chimera (LYTAC) and GlueTAC. This review focuses on recent advancements in covalent degraders beyond covalent PROTACs and examines obstacles and future directions pertinent to this field.

Discovery of ERD-12310A as an Exceptionally Potent and Orally Efficacious PROTAC Degrader of Estrogen Receptor α (ERα). (PubMed, J Med Chem)
ERD-12310A achieved a DC50 value of 47 pM and is 10 times more potent than ARV-471...Importantly, ERD-12310A achieved strong tumor growth inhibition in MCF-7 xenograft tumors harboring the clinically relevant ESR1Y537S mutation, which confers resistance to traditional antiestrogens. Our data position ERD-12310A as a promising candidate for further development as a potential therapy for ER+ breast cancer.

Stability Evaluation and Pharmacokinetic Profiling of Vepdegestrant in Rodents Using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry. (PubMed, Molecules)
We developed and validated a sensitive and rapid liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method to quantify vepdegestrant in rodent plasma using bavdegalutamide (formerly ARV-110) as an internal standard. In liver microsomes, vepdegestrant exhibited moderate stability in rats but was stable in mice, dogs, and humans. These findings enhance the understanding of pharmacokinetic properties of vepdegestrant supporting further development of PROTAC drugs.

VERITAC-2: a Phase III study of vepdegestrant, a PROTAC ER degrader, versus fulvestrant in ER+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. (PubMed, Future Oncol)
Progression-free survival by blinded independent central review (primary end point) will be assessed in the intention-to-treat population and ESR1 mutation-positive subpopulation. Secondary end points include overall survival, tumor response, safety, pharmacokinetics, patient-reported outcomes, and circulating tumor DNA biomarkers.Clinical trial registration: NCT05654623 (ClinicalTrials.gov).

Oral estrogen receptor PROTAC® vepdegestrant (ARV-471) is highly efficacious as monotherapy and in combination with CDK4/6 or PI3K/mTOR pathway inhibitors in preclinical ER+ breast cancer models. (PubMed, Clin Cancer Res)
Vepdegestrant achieved greater ER degradation in-vivo compared to fulvestrant, which correlated with improved tumor growth inhibition, suggesting vepdegestrant could be a more effective backbone ET for patients with ER+/HER2- breast cancer.

Annual review of PROTAC degraders as anticancer agents in 2022. (PubMed, Eur J Med Chem)
As of the end of 2022, more than 20 drugs have entered clinical trials, with ARV-471 targeting estrogen receptor (ER) showing remarkable progress by entering phase III clinical studies...In this review, we aimed to update the PROTAC degraders as potential anticancer agents covering articles published in 2022. The design strategies, degradation effects, and anticancer activities were highlighted, which might provide an updated sight to develop novel PROTAC degraders with great potential as anticancer agents as well as favorable drug-like properties.
