Multiparameter optimization allowed efficient prioritization of molecules with good potency and drug-like properties during lead optimization, which led to the discovery of a highly potent MALT1 inhibitor, SGR-1505, with a well-balanced property profile. It demonstrated strong antitumor activity alone and in combination with BTK inhibitor in multiple in vivo B-cell lymphoma xenograft models and progressed to a phase 1 clinical trial in patients with mature B-cell neoplasms.

CARD11 (Caspase Recruitment Domain Family Member 11) • MALT1 (MALT1 Paracaspase)
Mechanistically, telaprevir inhibited the recruitment of TRAF6 by MALT1, concomitant with the reduced recruitment of caspase-11 by TRAF6, and in turn, attenuated caspase-11 K63 poly-ubiquitination and activation, which was further confirmed by knockdown of TRAF6. Based on these results, we concluded that telaprevir could protect mouse heart against I/R injury by reducing caspase-11-dependent pyroptosis through inhibition of MALT1/TRAF6 pathway.
Provided herein are novel MALT1 inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions, use of such compounds in treating cancer, and processes for preparing such compounds.
Thus, our findings demonstrate that MALT1 suppression dramatically reduces FOLFOX-induced inflammatory and fibrotic conditions by modulating the NF-κB activation, paving the way for innovative HSOS therapy approaches.
