Translational modelling to predict human pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase-targeted protein degrader BGB-16673. (PubMed, Br J Pharmacol)
The presented simplified mechanistic model with reduced number of model parameters is practically easier to be applied to research projects compared with the full mechanistic model. It can be used as a tool to better understand the PK/PD behaviour for targeted protein degraders and increase the confidence when moving to the clinical stage.

Bruton tyrosine kinase degrader BP001 attenuates the inflammation caused by high glucose in raw264.7 cell. (PubMed, In Vitro Cell Dev Biol Anim)
Consequently, it is not difficult to understand that BP001 effectively inhibits inflammation. In conclusion, the present study provides evidence that BP001, a BTK degrader, can serve as a novel immunomodulator of inflammation induced by high glucose, making it an attractive candidate for further investigation.

Kinase-impaired BTK mutations are susceptible to clinical-stage BTK and IKZF1/3 degrader NX-2127. (PubMed, Science)
Treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia with NX-2127 achieves >80% degradation of BTK in patients and demonstrates proof-of-concept therapeutic benefit. These data reveal an oncogenic scaffold function of mutant BTK that confers resistance across clinically approved BTK inhibitors but is overcome by BTK degradation in patients.

Discovery and Preclinical Pharmacology of NX-2127, an Orally Bioavailable Degrader of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase with Immunomodulatory Activity for the Treatment of Patients with B Cell Malignancies. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
NX-2127 is orally bioavailable, exhibits in vivo degradation across species, and demonstrates efficacy in preclinical oncology models. NX-2127 has advanced into first-in-human clinical trials and achieves deep and sustained degradation of BTK following daily oral dosing at 100 mg.

Initial Findings from a First-in-Human Phase 1a/b Trial of NX-5948, a Selective Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Degrader, in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory B Cell Malignancies (ASH 2023)
Current findings in this heavily pre-treated population of patients with CLL and NHL are encouraging and indicate that NX-5948 is safe and well tolerated and has clinical activity, supporting continuation of its development in CLL and NHL. NX-5948 also exhibits dose-proportional PK, resulting in rapid, robust and sustained BTK degradation. Additional data with higher dose levels and longer treatment duration will be presented at the meeting.

A First-in-Human Phase 1 Trial of NX-2127, a First-in-Class Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Dual-Targeted Protein Degrader with Immunomodulatory Activity, in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory B Cell Malignancies (ASH 2023)
This first-in-human study of NX-2127 is actively enrolling and dose-expansion cohorts in DLBCL and MCL have been initiated at the 300 mg daily dose. Findings include dose-dependent PK accompanied by degradation of BTK and Ikaros. Encouraging and persistent responses were observed in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory CLL and NHL with a manageable safety profile.

First Results from a Phase 1, First-in-Human Study of the Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Degrader Bgb-16673 in Patients (Pts) with Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) B-Cell Malignancies (BGB-16673-101) (ASH 2023)
Preliminary data from this ongoing, first-in-human study of the novel BTK degrader BGB-16673 demonstrate a tolerable safety profile and clinical responses in heavily pretreated pts with B-cell malignancies, including those with BTKi-resistant disease. Substantial reductions in BTK protein levels in peripheral blood and tumor tissue were also observed, demonstrating proof-of-concept of a strong, on-target effect.

NX-2127 and NX-5948, two clinical stage cereblon-recruiting BTK degraders, facilitate T-cell functionality in CLL (IWCLL 2023)
In addition to direct anti-neoplastic effects, BTK inhibitors ibrutinib and acalabrutinib were found to favorably modulate T-cell function in pre-clinical and clinical studies of CLL...In vitro polarization assays indicated that treatment with 1 μM NX-2127, but not NX-5948, resulted in a dramatic and significant upregulation of both IFN-γ and IL-2 under TH1-polarizing conditions, to a degree which significantly exceeded the effect of either ibrutinib or lenalidomide... CRBN-recruiting BTK degraders NX-2127 andNX-5948 induce degradation of BTK in primary CLL cells and do not interfere with T-cell activation and survival in vitro. More importantly, CRBN-immunomodulatory activity was required to upregulate CD38 (an IFN response gene), promote T-cell differentiation towards a TH1 phenotype, downregulate Treg differentiation, and facilitate immunological synapse formation, suggesting NX-2127 has the potential to reverse the immunosuppressive environment of CLL. Overall, our findings provide a strong rationale for continued investigation of these BTK degraders in CLL and lymphoid malignancies.

NX-5948 and NX-2127 potently degrade a broad array of clinically-relevant BTK mutants that display resistance to inhibitors and other BTK degraders (IWCLL 2023)
The C481S and C481R mutations eliminated the anti-proliferative effects of covalent inhibitors ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and zanubrutinib, whereas the V416L, T474I, and L528W mutations had variable effects on the covalent inhibitors. By contrast, the non-covalent inhibitors pirtobrutinib, vecabrutinib, and fenebruitnib maintained activity against C481S but displayed partially reduced potency against the C481R mutation and dramatically reduced potency against the V416L, T474I, and L528W mutations...These degrader molecules may also have utility in earlier lines of therapy due to their ability to suppress scaffold-mediated BTK signaling. Phase 1a/b trials of NX-5948 and NX-2127 in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies are ongoing (NX-5948: NCT05131022; NX-2127: NCT04830137).

BGB-16673, A BTK DEGRADER, OVERCOMES ON-TARGET RESISTANCE FROM BTK INHIBITORS AND PRESENTS SUSTAINABLE LONG-TERM TUMOR REGRESSION IN LYMPHOMA XENOGRAFT MODELS (EHA 2023)
Inhibition of BTK by covalent BTK inhibitors (BTKi), such as ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and zanubrutinib, have revolutionized the management of CLL and other B cell malignancies. BGB-16673 is a potent inhibitor against tumors expressing wildtype and clinical-relevant BTK mutations. In addition, it is superior to ibrutinib and LOXO-305 equivalent for more durable anti-tumor activities and less metastasis. Absolute lymphocyte count, Tumor model, Lymphoma, Mouse model

Proof of concept of NX-2127, a first-in-class Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) dual-targeted protein degrader with immunomodulatory activity, in patients with DLBCL (ICML 2023)
Combination therapy with ibrutinib, lenalidomide and rituximab demonstrated clinical activity in recurrent DLBCL [Goy et al. In this first-in-human, first-in-class study of a BTK degrader, NX-2127 was well tolerated and showed promising activity in a patient with non-GCB DLBCL. These data support further clinical development of NX-2127 in B cell lymphoid malignancies including DLBCL.
