Attacking Cancers Using Novel Methods of Targeted Protein Degradation

SugarCone Biotech

It is important to be clear that this is a unique degrader strategy and not at all like ProTAC or ProMAB technologies that targets proteins by binding them to the E3-ligase controlled degradation pathway. That is a complex field that has struggled to bring therapies to approval (see [link] ).

SMR Meeting: Molecular Glues

Zobio

In person Molecular glues and targeted protein degraders are changing the landscape of drug discovery. They show great potential for treating diseases such as cancer, infectious, inflammatory, andneurodegenerative diseases, especially for those with “undruggable” pathogenic protein targets.

Kinase-impaired BTK mutations are susceptible to clinical-stage BTK and IKZF1/3 degrader NX-2127

Covalent Modifiers

Therefore, understanding mechanisms by which acquired mutations in BTK confer drug resistance and developing new therapies to overcome resistance are critically important. This effort included evaluation of BTK degradation in patients with CLL treated in a phase 1 clinical trial of NX-2127, a first-in-class BTK degrader (NCT04830137).

Antibody-drug conjugates payloads: then, now and next

Drug Target Review

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have been a groundbreaking approach to cancer treatment with their ability to deliver cytotoxic drugs directly to diseased cells while sparing healthy tissues. 1 However, efforts proved less effective than the original drugs, owing mostly to insufficient toxicity against cancer cells.
