Design and Synthesis of Novel Candidate CK1δ Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs). (PubMed, Molecules)
In the present study, we established a modular synthetic platform to systematically generate a set of PROTAC degrader candidates consisting of the CK1δ-specific inhibitor scaffold, alkyl and PEG linker motifs with various lengths, and Cereblon (CRBN)-engaging pomalidomide and thalidomide derivatives as E3 ligase binders. The most potent PROTAC P1d inhibits the phosphorylation of downstream substrates through CK1δ/ε degradation. We establish the requirement of CUL4ACRBN and the proteasome for the P1d-mediated degradation of CK1δ/ε.

Allogeneic iPSC-derived iNKT cells in recurrent head and neck cancer: a phase 1 trial. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Tumor progression was suppressed in two patients, in whom clonal expansion of memory- and effector-phenotype CD8+ T cells was observed, along with activation of the IFN-γ signaling pathway. Here, we show that iPSC-iNKT cells are safe and possess therapeutic potential as an immunotherapy for solid tumors.

Discovery of a Proteolysis Targeting Chimera for TRKA and RET-derived oncoproteins. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Mechanistically, TPM3-TRKA degradation by compound 9 was dependent on CRBN-mediated polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation; accordingly, it was hindered by inhibitors of the proteasome (MG132) or Cullins (MLN4924), by dominant negative Cullin 4A mutant, and by free pomalidomide. Finally, a compound 9 derivative, compound 20, induced in vivo degradation of TMP3-TRKA in KM12 cells mouse xenografts. In conclusion, our study indicated that PROTAC-mediated degradation is an efficient strategy to intercept RET and TRKA oncogenic signaling.

ABBV-303 is a Natural Killer Cell Engager Specific for c-Met-Expressing Tumors. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
When compared to a CD3 bispecific with the same c-Met binder, ABBV-303 drove lower levels of inflammatory cytokines at equivalent levels of tumor cell killing and enhanced tolerance of normal cells expressing c-Met, consistent with the natural tendency of NK cells to preferentially react with stressed or cancer cells as compared to normal, healthy tissue. Together, this study showed that ABBV-303 is effective at driving anti-tumor immunity against a wide range of c-Met expressing tumors.
