Developing MYC Degraders Bearing the Von Hippel-Lindau Ligand to Target the "Undruggable" MYC. (PubMed, ACS Pharmacol Transl Sci)
The molecules are based on connecting a known MYC binder to a VHL ligand or pomalidomide to induce MYC degradation in various cancer cells known to express MYC...Encouraging results presented herein suggest that the presented analogs may serve as prototype structures of future therapeutic agents for the treatment of MYC-dependent tumors. MYC protein degraders can well complement the more established inhibition approaches that have been presented in the past (e.g., disruption of the MYC-MAX complex formation by small-molecule inhibitors).

Structure-Activity Relationship of Potent, Selective, and Orally Bioavailable Molecular Glue Degraders of CK1α. (PubMed, ACS Med Chem Lett)
The original molecular glue degraders (thalidomide, lenalidomide, and pomalidomide) are known to bind to cereblon (CRBN) and alter its surface to induce recruitment, ubiquitination, and degradation of therapeutically valuable neosubstrates (IKZF1, IKZF3, and CK1α). Herein, we describe the medicinal chemistry efforts that resulted in the discovery of SJ3149 as well as other potent and selective CK1α degraders. We report kinetic profiling and parameters of CK1α degradation, ternary complex, antiproliferative effects, in vitro ADME data, and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies with demonstrated oral bioavailability.

Pomalidomide in patients with multiple myeloma: potential impact on the reconstitution of a functional T-cell immunity. (PubMed, Immunol Res)
These observations imply that Pomalidomide treatment influences the T-cell repertoire, particularly in the CD4 + subpopulation during the later stages of treatment, raising speculation about the potential involvement of these lymphocyte expansions in mechanisms related to antitumor immunity.

Clinical response and pathway-specific correlates following TIGIT-LAG3 blockade in myeloma: the MyCheckpoint randomized clinical trial. (PubMed, Nat Cancer)
Persons with myeloma were randomized to receive an anti-TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor) or anti-LAG3 (lymphocyte activation gene) antibody followed by combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone ( NCT04150965 ). Anti-TIGIT responders had higher CD226 expression, natural killer cell activation and lower CD112 expression. These data demonstrate the clinical activity of TIGIT-LAG3 blockade and identify pathway-specific response correlates in myeloma.

Transcription factor Ikzf1 associates with Foxp3 to repress gene expression in Treg cells and limit autoimmunity and anti-tumor immunity. (PubMed, Immunity)
Pomalidomide, which degrades IKZF1 and IKZF3, induced IFN-γ overproduction in human Treg cells. Mechanistically, the Foxp3-Ikzf1-Ikzf3 complex competed with epigenetic co-activators, such as p300, for binding to target gene loci via chromatin remodeling. Therefore, the Ikzf1 association with Foxp3 is essential for the gene-repressive function of Foxp3 and could be exploited to treat autoimmune disease and cancer.

The synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles as binders of D-dopachrome tautomerase (D-DT) for the development of dual-targeting inhibitors. (PubMed, Eur J Med Chem)
Enzyme inhibition experiments led to the discovery of the compound 10d, which exhibited moderate inhibitory potency (IC50 of 5.9 ± 0.7 μM), but unfortunately demonstrated no activity in D-DT degradation experiments. In conclusion, this study offers valuable insight into the SAR of D-DT inhibition, paving the way for the development of novel molecules as tools to study D-DT functions in tumor proliferation and, ultimately, new therapeutics for cancer treatment.

Lenalidomide and pomalidomide modulate hematopoietic cell expansion and differentiation in the presence of MSC. (PubMed, Int J Hematol)
Thus, while MSCs support the presence of these immature cell populations, they simultaneously inhibit their maturation. This finding provides novel mechanistic insights into lenalidomide- and pomalidomide-induced cytopenia, and could guide therapeutic strategies for its mitigation.

O-GlcNAcylated RALY Contributes to Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells Proliferation by Regulating USP22 mRNA Nuclear Export. (PubMed, Int J Biol Sci)
Furthermore, we develop a novel RALY protein degrader based on peptide proteolysis-targeting chimeras, named RALY-PROTAC, which we chemically synthesize by linking a RALY-targeting peptide with the E3 ubiquitin ligase recruitment ligand pomalidomide. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate a novel mechanism by which O-GlcNAcylation/RALY/USP22 mRNA axis aggravates HCC cells proliferation. RALY-PROTACs as degraders of the RALY protein exhibit potential as therapeutic drugs for RALY-overexpressing HCC.

In our study, we developed a PROTAC-mimetic probe dPA by combining PACMA31 (PA) analogs with cereblon-directed pomalidomide...Our findings highlight a novel strategy for PDIA1 inhibition via targeted degradation, offering promising prospects in cancer therapeutics. This approach may overcome limitations of conventional inhibitors, presenting new avenues for advancing anti-cancer interventions.
