Tumor volumes were analyzed by two-way ANOVA, comparing to the vehicle (*** - p < 0.001; **** - p < 0.0001; Error bars - SEM). DETAILED DESCRIPTION As disclosed herein, using CRISPR drug modifier screens and systematic viability profiling, PRLX-93936 was unexpectedly found to act via the Tripartite motif containing-21 (TRIM21) E3 ubiquitin ligase, to simultaneously activate immune signaling and apoptotic pathways. TRIM21 is a RING-family E3 ligase enzyme. E3 ligase enzymes recognize substrate proteins and facilitate conjugation of ubiquitin and poly-ubiquitin chains (Buetow et al. Nat. Rev. Mol. Cell Biol.17, 626–642 (2016)). There is strong precedent for stimulating E3 ligase activities via small molecules for therapeutic benefit. For example, thalidomide derivatives act as molecular glues to stimulate CRBN-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of essential substrates such as IKZF1 (Fischer, E. S. et al. Nature 512, 49–53 (2014)) or CSNK1A1 (Petzold et al. Nature 532, 127–130 (2016)). Heterobifunctional ligase recruiting PROTACs are also being developed to expand available substrates (Jevtić et al. Cell Chem Biol 28, 1000–1013 (2021)). TRIM21 has dual actions: it can simultaneously i) bind and target antibody-conjugated proteins for proteasomal degradation via lysine 48 polyubiquitination (Clift, D. et al. Cell 171, 1692-1706.e18 (2017)), and ii) stimulate immune activation via lysine 63 polyubiquitination (Fletcher et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A.112, 10014–10019 (2015)). By recognizing antibody-bound cargo, TRIM21 is believed to play an important role in pathogen clearance by the immune system (Kiss, L. et al. Nat. Commun.10, 4502 (2019)). Accordingly, disclosed herein are compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for treating TRIM21-associated cancers.

Substituent groups include, but are not limited to, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, acyl, amino, amido, amidino, aryl, azido, carbamoyl, carboxyl, carboxyl ester, cyano, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, guanidino, halo, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl, hydroxy, hydrazino, imino, oxo, nitro, phosphate, phosphonate, sulfonic acid, thiol, thione, or combinations thereof. As used herein, in chemical structures the indication: represents a point of attachment of one moiety to another moiety (e.g., a substituent group to the rest of the compound). For compounds described herein, groups and substituents thereof may be selected in accordance with permitted valence of the atoms and the substituents, such that the selections and substitutions result in a stable compound, e.g., which does not spontaneously undergo transformation such as by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, etc. When substituent groups are specified by their conventional chemical formulae, written from left to right, such indication also encompass substituent groups resulting from writing the structure from right to left. For example, if a bivalent group is shown as -CH2O-, such indication also encompasses -OCH2-; similarly, -OC(O)NH- also encompasses - NHC(O)O-. When linker moieties are shown, the linkers can be attached to other moieties of the compound in either direction. The terms “administer,” “administering,” or “administration,” as used herein refer to implanting, absorbing, ingesting, injecting, inhaling, or otherwise introducing a compound or a pharmaceutical composition. As used herein, the terms “condition,” “disease,” and “disorder” are used interchangeably. An “effective amount” of a compound or composition refers to an amount sufficient to elicit a desired biological response (e.g., treating a condition). As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the effective amount of a compound may vary depending on such factors as the desired biological endpoint, the pharmacokinetics of the compound, the condition being treated, the mode of administration, and the age and health of the subject. An effective amount encompasses therapeutic and prophylactic treatment. For example, in treating cancer, an effective amount of a compound or composition may reduce tumor burden or stop the growth or spread of a tumor. A “therapeutically effective amount” of a compound or composition is an amount sufficient to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of a condition, or to delay or minimize one or more symptoms associated with the condition. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount is an amount sufficient to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of a condition or to minimize one or more symptoms associated with the condition. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound means an amount of therapeutic agent, alone or in combination with other therapies, that provides a therapeutic benefit in the treatment of the condition. The term “therapeutically effective amount” can encompass an amount that improves overall therapy, reduces or avoids symptoms or causes of the condition, or enhances the therapeutic efficacy of another therapeutic agent. A “subject” to which administration is contemplated includes, but is not limited to, a human (i.e., a male or female of any age group, e.g., a pediatric subject (e.g., infant, child, adolescent) or adult subject (e.g., young adult, middle-aged adult, or senior adult)) and / or other non-human animals, for example, mammals (e.g., primates (e.g., cynomolgus monkeys, rhesus monkeys); commercially relevant mammals such as cattle, pigs, horses, sheep, goats, cats, and / or dogs) and birds (e.g., commercially relevant birds such as chickens, ducks, geese, and / or turkeys). As used herein, the terms “treatment,” “treat,” and “treating” refer to reversing, alleviating, delaying the onset of, or inhibiting the progress of a disease or condition, or one or more signs or symptoms thereof. In some embodiments, “treatment,” “treat,” and “treating” require that signs or symptoms of the disease disorder or condition have developed or have been observed. In other embodiments, treatment may be administered in the absence of signs or symptoms of the disease or condition. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., in light of a history of symptoms and / or in light of genetic or other susceptibility factors). Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, for example, to delay or prevent recurrence. Compounds Disclosed herein are compounds of formula (I):

[0006] pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Certain compounds described herein may have at least one asymmetric center. Additional asymmetric centers may be present depending upon the nature of the various substituents on the molecule. Compounds with asymmetric centers give rise to enantiomers (optical isomers), diastereomers (configurational isomers) or both, and it is intended that all of the possible enantiomers and diastereomers, in mixtures and as pure or partially purified compounds, are included within the scope of this disclosure. The independent syntheses of the enantiomerically or diastereomerically enriched compounds, or their chromatographic separations, may be achieved as known in the art by appropriate modification of the methodology disclosed herein. Their absolute stereochemistry may be determined by the x-ray crystallography of crystalline products or crystalline intermediates that are derivatized, if necessary, with a reagent containing an asymmetric center of known absolute configuration. If desired, racemic mixtures of the compounds may be separated so that the individual enantiomers are isolated. The separation can be carried out by methods well known in the art, such as the coupling of a racemic mixture of compounds to an enantiomerically pure compound to form a diastereomeric mixture, followed by separation of the individual diastereomers by standard methods, such as fractional crystallization or chromatography. The coupling reaction is often the formation of salts using an enantiomerically pure acid or base. The diastereomeric derivatives may then be converted to the pure enantiomers by cleavage of the added chiral residue. The racemic mixture of the compounds can also be separated directly by chromatographic methods using chiral stationary phases, which methods are well known in the art. Alternatively, any enantiomer of a compound may be obtained by stereoselective synthesis using optically pure starting materials or reagents of known configuration by methods well known in the art. Compounds may also possess tautomeric forms, and all tautomers also constitute embodiments of the disclosure. Compounds described herein may also exhibit atropisomerism. Atropisomers are conformers that arise from restricted rotation about a single bond, and individual atropisomers can be isolated as separate chemical species. Examples of compounds exhibiting atropisomerism are ortho-substituted biphenyl and 1,1,2,2-tetra-tert-butylethane. Compounds disclosed herein may exhibit atropisomerism about the single bond marked with an asterisk in the depiction of formula (I) below. When a compound disclosed herein is shown without identifying the specific atropisomer, both atropisomers are included. Certain exemplary compounds described herein have been separated into their individual atropisomers, and in some embodiments, one atropisomer may have increased potency compared to the other. All atropisomers and mixtures thereof are within the scope of this disclosure.
[0007] The present disclosure also includes an isotopically-labeled compound, which is identical to those recited in formula (I) or formula (II), but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds of the invention are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, and chlorine, such as, but not limited to2H,3H,13C,14C,15N,18O,17O,31P,32P,35S,18F, and36Cl, respectively. Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (2H) can afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements and, hence, may be preferred in some circumstances. The compound may incorporate positron-emitting isotopes for medical imaging and positron-emitting tomography (PET) studies for determining the distribution of receptors. Suitable positron-emitting isotopes that can be incorporated in compounds of formula (I) or formula (II) are11C,13N,15O, and18F. Isotopically-labeled compounds of formula (I) or formula (II) can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the accompanying Examples using appropriate isotopically-labeled reagent in place of non-isotopically-labeled reagent. Compounds disclosed herein can exist in solvated as well as unsolvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like, and it is intended that the disclosure encompass both solvated and unsolvated forms. In one embodiment, the compound is amorphous. In one embodiment, the compound is a single polymorph. In another embodiment, the compound is a mixture of polymorphs. In another embodiment, the compound is in a crystalline form. a. Methods of Synthesis Compounds disclosed herein can be prepared by a variety of methods, including those illustrated in the Examples. Compounds and intermediates may be isolated and purified by methods well-known to those skilled in the art of organic synthesis. Examples of conventional methods for isolating and purifying compounds can include, but are not limited to, chromatography on solid supports such as silica gel, alumina, or silica derivatized with alkylsilane groups, by recrystallization at high or low temperature with an optional pretreatment with activated carbon, thin-layer chromatography, distillation at various pressures, sublimation under vacuum, and trituration, as described for instance in “Vogel's Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry,” 5th edition (1989), by Furniss, Hannaford, Smith, and Tatchell, pub. Longman Scientific & Technical, Essex CM202JE, England. Reaction conditions and reaction times for each individual step can vary depending on the particular reactants employed and substituents present in the reactants used. Reactions can be worked up in a conventional manner, e.g., by eliminating the solvent from the residue and further purified according to methodologies generally known in the art such as, but not limited to, crystallization, distillation, extraction, trituration and chromatography. Unless otherwise described, the starting materials and reagents are either commercially available or can be prepared by one skilled in the art from commercially available materials using methods described in the chemical literature. Standard experimentation, including appropriate manipulation of the reaction conditions, reagents and sequence of the synthetic route, protection of any chemical functionality that cannot be compatible with the reaction conditions, and deprotection at a suitable point in the reaction sequence of the method are included in the scope of the disclosure. Suitable protecting groups and the methods for protecting and deprotecting different substituents using such suitable protecting groups are well known to those skilled in the art; examples of which can be found in PGM Wuts and TW Greene, in Greene's book titled Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (4thed.), John Wiley & Sons, NY (2006). When an optically active form of a disclosed compound is required, it can be obtained by carrying out one of the procedures described herein using an optically active starting material (prepared, for example, by asymmetric induction of a suitable reaction step), or by resolution of a mixture of the stereoisomers of the compound or intermediates using a standard procedure (such as chromatographic separation, recrystallization, or enzymatic resolution). Similarly, when a pure geometric isomer of a compound is required, it can be obtained by carrying out one of the procedures described herein using a pure geometric isomer as a starting material, or by resolution of a mixture of the geometric isomers of the compound or intermediates using a standard procedure such as chromatographic separation. The synthetic schemes and specific examples as described are illustrative and are not to be read as limiting the scope of the disclosure or the claims. Alternatives, modifications, and equivalents of the synthetic methods and specific examples are contemplated. b. Pharmaceutically Acceptable Salts The disclosed compounds may exist as pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to salts or zwitterions of the compounds which are water or oil-soluble or dispersible, suitable for treatment of disorders without undue toxicity, irritation, and allergic response, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio and effective for their intended use. The salts may be prepared during the final isolation and purification of the compounds or separately by reacting an amino group of the compound with a suitable acid. For example, a compound may be dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as but not limited to methanol and water and treated with at least one equivalent of an acid, like hydrochloric acid. The resulting salt may precipitate out and be isolated by filtration and dried under reduced pressure. Alternatively, the solvent and excess acid may be removed under reduced pressure to provide a salt. Representative salts include acetate, adipate, alginate, citrate, aspartate, benzoate, benzenesulfonate, bisulfate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, digluconate, glycerophosphate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, formate, isethionate, fumarate, lactate, maleate, methanesulfonate, naphthylenesulfonate, nicotinate, oxalate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, picrate, oxalate, maleate, pivalate, propionate, succinate, tartrate, trichloroacetate, trifluoroacetate, glutamate, para-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, and the like. Amino groups of the compounds may also be quaternized with alkyl chlorides, bromides and iodides such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, lauryl, myristyl, stearyl and the like. Basic addition salts may be prepared during the final isolation and purification of the disclosed compounds by reaction of a carboxyl group with a suitable base such as the hydroxide, carbonate, or bicarbonate of a metal cation such as lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, or aluminum, or an organic primary, secondary, or tertiary amine. Quaternary amine salts can be prepared, such as those derived from methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, diethylamine, ethylamine, tributylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaniline, N-methylpiperidine, N-methylmorpholine, dicyclohexylamine, procaine, dibenzylamine, N,N-dibenzylphenethylamine, 1-ephenamine and N,N’-dibenzylethylenediamine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, piperidine, piperazine, and the like. Pharmaceutical Compositions The disclosed compounds may be incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration to a subject (such as a patient, which may be a human or non- human). The pharmaceutical compositions may include a “therapeutically effective amount” or a “prophylactically effective amount” of the agent. A “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary, to achieve the desired therapeutic result. A therapeutically effective amount of the composition may be determined by a person skilled in the art and may vary according to factors such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the individual, and the ability of the composition to elicit a desired response in the individual. A therapeutically effective amount is also one in which any toxic or detrimental effects of a compound of the disclosure are outweighed by the therapeutically beneficial effects. A “prophylactically effective amount” refers to an amount effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary, to achieve the desired prophylactic result. Typically, since a prophylactic dose is used in subjects prior to or at an earlier stage of disease or condition, the prophylactically effective amount will be less than the therapeutically effective amount. The pharmaceutical compositions may include pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier,” as used herein, means a non-toxic, inert solid, semi-solid or liquid filler, diluent, encapsulating material or formulation auxiliary of any type. Some examples of materials which can serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are sugars such as, but not limited to, lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches such as, but not limited to, corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives such as, but not limited to, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients such as, but not limited to, cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils such as, but not limited to, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols; such as propylene glycol; esters such as, but not limited to, ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents such as, but not limited to, magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer’s solution; ethyl alcohol, and phosphate buffer solutions, as well as other non-toxic compatible lubricants such as, but not limited to, sodium lauryl sulfate and magnesium stearate, as well as coloring agents, releasing agents, coating agents, sweetening, flavoring and perfuming agents, preservatives and antioxidants can also be present in the composition, according to the judgment of the formulator. Thus, the compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be formulated for administration by, for example, solid dosing, eye drop, in a topical oil-based formulation, injection, inhalation (either through the mouth or the nose), implants, or oral, buccal, parenteral, or rectal administration.

Methods of Use The compounds disclosed herein have TRIM21-dependent anticancer activity. Accordingly, the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein can be used for treatment of proliferative diseases such as cancer, including TRIM21-dependent cancers. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the disclosure provides a method of treating a proliferative disease in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I) or formula (II), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof), or a pharmaceutical composition described herein (e.g., a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) or formula (II), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof). In some embodiments, the proliferative disease is associated with TRIM21. In some embodiments, the proliferative disease is associated with a mutation in and / or increased activity of TRIM21, e.g., due to increased expression of TRIM21. In some embodiments, the proliferative disease is cancer (e.g., a TRIM21-associated cancer). In some embodiments, the cancer is pancreatic cancer, head and neck cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer, kidney cancer, multiple myeloma, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, bile duct cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, prostate cancer, and sarcoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is pancreatic cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is head and neck cancer. In some embodiments, the disclosed methods comprise detecting and / or quantifying the amount of TRIM21 in a sample obtained from the subject, and administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, based on the presence or amount of TRIM21 detected and / or quantified in the sample. In some embodiments, the methods comprise comparing the amount of TRIM21 to a reference level and identifying the subject as having a TRIM21-associated cancer when the amount of TRIM21 is greater than or equal to the reference level. “Reference level” as used herein refers to a value that is used to assess diagnostic, prognostic, or therapeutic efficacy and that has been linked or is associated herein with various clinical parameters (e.g., TRIM21-associated cancer). It is well-known that reference levels may vary depending on the nature of the assay used to determine the concentration, level, or amount of the analyte (e.g., antibodies employed, reaction conditions, sample purity, etc.) and that assays can be compared and standardized. It further is well within the ordinary skill of one in the art to adapt the disclosure herein for other assays to obtain assay-specific reference levels for those other assays based on the description provided by this disclosure. Whereas the precise value of the reference level may vary between assays, the findings as described herein should be generally applicable and capable of being extrapolated to other assays. The reference level may be based on positive controls from individuals identified as having a TRIM21-associated cancer. Alternatively, the reference level may be based on negative controls from a healthy subject (e.g., a subject not diagnosed with TRIM21- associated cancer). In some embodiments, the reference level is the reference level of TRIM21 in a sample or compiled samples from a subject(s) known to be afflicted with TRIM21-associated cancer. For example, a reference value may be based on the lowest value for the level of TRIM21 in known subjects with TRIM21-associated cancer, such that values for the level of TRIM21 equal to or higher than that value are indicative of TRIM21-associated cancer. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the reference level is the reference level of TRIM 21 in a sample or compiled samples from a subject(s) known to not have TRIM21-associated cancer. For example, a reference value may be based on the highest value for the level of TRIM21 in known subjects without a TRIM21-associated cancer (e.g., healthy subjects or subjects with cancer not associated with TRIM21), such that values for the leave of TRIM21 higher than that value are indicative of TRIM21-associated cancer. The “sample” broadly refers to any material, biological fluid, tissue, or cell obtained or otherwise derived from a subject. This includes blood and blood products (including whole blood, leukocytes, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, buffy coat, plasma, and serum), mucosal biopsy tissue and brushed cells, sputum, tears, mucus, nasal washes, nasal aspirate, breath, urine, semen, saliva, peritoneal washings, ascites, cystic fluid, meningeal fluid, amniotic fluid, glandular fluid, lymph fluid, nipple aspirate, bronchial aspirate (e.g., bronchoalveolar lavage), bronchial brushing, synovial fluid, joint aspirate, organ secretions, cells, a cellular extract, and cerebrospinal fluid. This also includes experimentally separated fractions of all of the foregoing. For example, a blood sample can be fractionated into serum, plasma, or into fractions containing particular types of blood cells, such as red blood cells or white blood cells (leukocytes). In some embodiments, a sample can be a combination of samples from an individual, such as a combination of a tissue and fluid sample. The term “sample” also includes materials containing homogenized solid material, such as from a stool sample, a tissue sample, or a tissue biopsy, for example. In some embodiments, the biological sample may comprise tumor tissue, suspected tumor tissue, or lymph node tissue. Any suitable methods for obtaining a biological sample can be employed; exemplary methods include, e.g., phlebotomy, swab (e.g., buccal swab), and a fine needle aspirate biopsy procedure. Exemplary tissues susceptible to fine needle aspiration include lymph node, lung, lung washes, BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage), thyroid, breast, pancreas, and liver. Samples can also be collected, e.g., by micro dissection (e.g., laser capture micro dissection (LCM) or laser micro dissection (LMD)), bladder wash, smear (e.g., a PAP smear), or ductal lavage. In some embodiments, the methods further comprise obtaining the sample(s) from the subject. The sample(s) can be obtained using techniques known to those skilled in the art, and the sample(s) may be used directly as obtained from the source or following a pretreatment to modify the character of the sample. Such pretreatment may include, for example, preparing plasma from blood, diluting viscous fluids, filtration, precipitation, dilution, distillation, mixing, concentration, inactivation of interfering components, the addition of reagents, lysing, and the like. It will be appreciated that obtaining a sample from a subject may comprise extracting the sample directly from the subject or receiving the biological sample from a third party. The sample(s) may be obtained in a medical facility, e.g., at an Emergency Room, urgent care clinic, walk-in clinic, a long term care facility, or another appropriate site of medical practice. The sample(s) may be obtained in a home or residential setting (e.g., a senior living or hospice setting), at the site of the suspected myocardial infarction, or during transportation to a medical facility (e.g., ambulance). The present disclosure is not limited by the type of assay used to detect and / or quantify the level of TRIM21. The nature of methods and the test can be any assay known in the art such as, for example, immunoassays, point-of-care assays, clinical chemistry assay, protein immunoprecipitation, immunoelectrophoresis, chemical analysis, SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis, or protein immunostaining, a protein assay, a competitive binding assay, a lateral flow assay, a functional protein assay, or chromatography or spectrometry methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC / MS). Also, the assay can be employed in a clinical chemistry format such as would be known by one of ordinary skill in the art. i. Dosages It will be appreciated that appropriate dosages of the compounds, and compositions comprising the compounds, can vary from patient to patient. Determining the optimal dosage will generally involve the balancing of the level of therapeutic benefit against any risk or deleterious side effects of the treatments described herein. The selected dosage level will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the activity of the particular compound, the route of administration, the time of administration, the rate of excretion of the compound, the duration of the treatment, other drugs, compounds, and / or materials used in combination, and the age, sex, weight, condition, general health, and prior medical history of the patient. The amount of compound and route of administration will ultimately be at the discretion of the physician, although generally the dosage will be to achieve local concentrations at the site of action which achieve the desired effect without causing substantial harmful or deleterious side-effects. Administration in vivo can be effected in one dose, continuously or intermittently (e.g. in divided doses at appropriate intervals) throughout the course of treatment. Methods of determining the most effective means and dosage of administration are well known to those of skill in the art and will vary with the formulation used for therapy, the purpose of the therapy, the target cell being treated, and the subject being treated. Single or multiple administrations can be carried out with the dose level and pattern being selected by the treating physician. ii. Combination Therapies A compound or composition described herein may be used in combination with other known therapies. Administered “in combination,” as used herein, means that two (or more) different treatments are delivered to the subject during the course of the subject’s affliction with the disorder, e.g., the two or more treatments are delivered after the subject has been diagnosed with the disorder and before the disorder has been cured or eliminated or treatment has ceased for other reasons. In some embodiments, the delivery of one treatment is still occurring when the delivery of the second begins, so that there is overlap in terms of administration. This is sometimes referred to herein as “simultaneous” or “concurrent delivery.” In other embodiments, the delivery of one treatment ends before the delivery of the other treatment begins. In some embodiments of either case, the treatment is more effective because of combined administration. For example, the second treatment is more effective, e.g., an equivalent effect is seen with less of the second treatment, or the second treatment reduces symptoms to a greater extent, than would be seen if the second treatment were administered in the absence of the first treatment, or the analogous situation is seen with the first treatment. In some embodiments, delivery is such that the reduction in a symptom, or other parameter related to the disorder is greater than what would be observed with one treatment delivered in the absence of the other. The effect of the two treatments can be partially additive, wholly additive, or greater than additive. The delivery can be such that an effect of the first treatment delivered is still detectable when the second is delivered. A compound or composition described herein and the at least one additional therapeutic agent can be administered simultaneously, in the same or in separate compositions, or sequentially. For sequential administration, the compound described herein can be administered first, and the additional agent can be administered subsequently, or the order of administration can be reversed. In some embodiments, a compound or composition described herein is administered in combination with at least one of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, cryotherapy, T cell transfer therapy, and thermotherapy, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments a compound or composition described herein is administered in combination with two or more of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, cryotherapy, T cell transfer therapy, and thermotherapy. For example, in some embodiments, a compound or composition described herein is administered in combination with an immunotherapy, such as an immune checkpoint inhibitor. In some embodiments, a compound or composition described herein is administered in combination with a T cell transfer therapy, such as CAR T-cell therapy. In some embodiments, a compound or composition described herein is used in combination with chemotherapy. In some embodiments, a compound or composition described herein is used in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent identified on the “A to Z List of Cancer Drugs” published by the National Cancer Institute.

After two days of transfection, the medium containing lentivirus was collected and stored at −80 °C before use. To transduce target cells, the lentivirus was added to the cells in the presence of 1 ug / ml Polybrene. Crispr knockout of TRIM21. sgRNAs targeting TRIM21 were designed utilizing the CrisPick design tool (https: / / portals.broadinstitute.org / gppx / crispick / public). A total of 5 pairs of oligonucleotides targeting TRIM21, and a control pair of CHR2-2, were annealed and cloned into the pXPR_023 all-in-one Cas9 vector. In brief, vector was linearized using BsmBI (New England Biolabs). The annealed oligonucleotides were ligated into the linearized and purified vector backbone with T4 DNA ligase (New England Biolabs). Constructs were transformed, purified using the Miniprep Kit (Qiagen), and the guide sequence was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. PANC1 cells were stably transduced with lentivirus for TRIM21 pXPR_023 or the negative control CHR2-2 pXPR_023 in 12-well plates via centrifugation at 2,000 rpm and 30 °C for two hours.

The TRIM21 gene cDNA was cloned into the pDONR_221 vector using BP Clonase (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and then the transferred into the pLX_311 mammalian expression vector using LR Clonase (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Lentivirus was generated as described above. Cell lines were transduced with the harvested virus, and infected cells were selected with 2 ug / mL blasticidin (Gibco) for 10 days. PANC1 CRISPR–Cas9 genome-wide knockout screen. PANC1 cells were stably transduced with pLX_311-Cas9. The Brunello genome-scale sgRNA library was obtained from the Broad Institute GPP. Virus was titrated to a goal infection efficiency of 30-50%. PANC1-Cas9 cells were infected with Brunello library virus in 12-well plates via centrifugation at 2,000 r.p.m. and 30 °C for 2 hours. The following day, cells were split into two replicate flasks and selected with 2 ug / ml puromycin for 5 d. After selection, replicates were seeded into 110 nM PRLX-93936 or DMSO control. Cells were maintained at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in CellSTACK 1,272 cm22-STACK flasks (Corning) in RPMI with 10% FBS. Cells were reseeded approximately every 3 days at a minimum of 40 million cells per passage to maintain approximately 500× library representation. Media and drugs were refreshed every 3–4 d for a total of 3 weeks. PRLX-93936 dose was gradually increased to 250 nM over the course of the screen. Genomic DNA was isolated from cell pellets using the NucleoSpin Blood XL columns (MACHEREY-NAGEL). Genomic DNA PCR and next-generation sequencing by standard Illumina methods were performed to determine guide abundance. PANC1 CRISPR–dCas9 genome-wide activation screen. PANC1 cells were stably transduced with pXPR_109 to express dCas9-VP64. The Calabrese B genome-scale virus library was obtained from the Broad Institute GPP. PANC1-dCas9-VP64 cells were infected with this library via centrifugation as described earlier. The following day, cells were split into two replicates and reseeded. One day later, 2 ug / ml of puromycin was added. After selection for 5 days, replicates were split into DMSO or 110 nM PRLX-93936 drug arms in duplicate and cultured for 2 weeks as described followed by genomic DNA isolation and sequencing as described earlier. CRISPR screen analysis. Guides targeting multiple genes or with <50 reads in the plasmid DNA pool were filtered. Counts were normalized against total library size. The guide-level log2 fold change was computed using the ratio between treatment versus vehicle control counts. The median log2 fold change from all guides targeting each gene was calculated. Statistical significance for each gene-level result was calculated using the MAGeCK-RRA method (MAGeCK version 0.5.9.5), using 10,000 permutations. Two-sided P values were corrected for multiple hypothesis testing using the Benjamini–Hochberg method. RNA-seq. PANC1 cells were seeded in 6-well plates. The following day, cells were treated in triplicate with 0.5 uM PRLX-93936 or DMSO vehicle control for 2 hours. RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN) with DNase treatment. RNA QC, library preparation, and Novaseq sequencing were performed by Genewiz. Gene-level expression values were obtained from RNA-seq using the nf-core / rnaseq pipeline (version 3.12.0). Salmon (version 1.10.1) was used to generate gene-level read counts. Differential gene expression was calculated using the DESeq2 package (version 1.28.0). These tools were run using the Stanford Sherlock computing cluster. Multiplexed cell line screening. The established PRISM cell proliferation assay was carried out as previously described. In brief, approximately 800 barcoded cell lines in pools of 20–25 were thawed and plated into 384-well plates (1,250 cells per well for adherent cells, 2,000 cells per well for suspension or mixed suspension–adherent pools). Cells were treated with an eight-point dose curve starting at 10 uM with threefold dilutions in triplicate and incubated for 120 hours. Following lysis, the barcode for each cell was detected by mRNA- based Luminex detection as previously described and input to a standardized R pipeline (https: / / github.com / broadinstitute / prism_data_processing) to generate viability estimates relative to vehicle treatment and fit dose–response curves. The area under the dose–response curve (AUC), which is correlated with drug potency, was used as a metric of drug potency for each cell line. Reference publicly available gene expression data were retrieved from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia. Predictive biomarker relationships were determined by comparing each cell line baseline molecular feature (e.g., RNA-seq gene expression) versus the observed AUC models by univariate linear modeling. Results and Discussion To determine functional mediators of PRLX-93936, genome-scale CRISPR / Cas9 drug modifier knockout and activation screens were performed in the PANC1 pancreatic cancer cell line. In the knockout screen, conducted using the Brunello CRISPR guide RNA library, TRIM21 knockout was the top hit that rescued from PRLX-93936. Other rescue hits included genes necessary for NFkB (IKK-alpha and IKK-gamma) and interferon signaling (IRF2) (FIG. 2). IKK enzymes have been reported to be direct substrates of TRIM21 (Wada et al. J. Biochem. 146, 821–832 (2009)). The results of the CRISPR gene activation screen, conducted with the Calabrese-B CRISPR guide RNA library, were highly complementary (FIG. 3). TRIM21 overexpression sensitized to PRLX-93936 treatment, along with IRF2 and IRF overexpression. Next, predictive biomarkers for PRLX-93936 response were sought via large-scale proliferation assays across 816 cancer cell lines (FIG.4A). Sensitive cell lines were identified across multiple cancer types, including lineage-specific enrichment for activity against pancreatic cancer and head and neck cancer (upper aerodigestive cancers) (FIG.4B). Next, cell line molecular features were systematically compared with PRLX-93936 drug response by linear modeling. High expression of TRIM21 was the top predictive biomarker of cell line response (FIGS.5A-5B). Thus, in addition to functionally mediating the anti-cancer activity of PRLX-93936, TRIM21 expression is a promising predictive biomarker for the drug. To validate the functional role of TRIM21 in PRLX-93936 response, multiple isogenic cancer cell lines were generated. First, TRIM21 was knocked out via CRISPR Cas9 in TRIM21-expressing PANC1 and KP3 pancreatic cancer cells. Both cell lines are sensitive to PRLX-93936 at baseline. TRIM21 knockout completely rescues from PRLX-93936 activity in a dose response viability assay (FIG. 6). Next, experiments were conducted to determine whether ectopic expression of TRIM21 in resistant cell lines would alter sensitivity to the drug. Across three resistant cell lines of various lineages (ovarian cancer, lung cancer, and melanoma) all become highly sensitive (>500x sensitization) to PRLX-93936 upon TRIM21 overexpression by lentiviral transduction (FIG.7) To confirm on-target activity of our TRIM21 CRISPR guides, knockout-restoration studies were performed in PANC1 cells. Re-expression of wild-type TRIM21 in knockout cells via guide-resistant cDNA restores sensitivity (FIG. 8). RING E3 ligases rely on a critical “linchpin” residue, most commonly arginine, to catalyze transfer of a ubiquitin molecule from an E2 enzyme to a substrate (Lips et al. EMBO J. 39, e104863 (2020)). The TRIM21 R55E linchpin mutation does not fully restore sensitivity to cells. Thus, functional TRIM21 is necessary for PRLX-93936 activity. PRLX-93936 was previously reported to induce apoptosis (unlike the parent compound, erastin, which is a prototypic ferroptosis inducer). Here, PRLX-93936 was found to induce caspase 3 / 7 activation in a TRIM21-dependent manner (FIG. 9A). In addition, multiple hallmarks of apoptosis including cleavage of PARP, caspase 3, and caspase 7 are detectable by immunoblot at 16 hours (FIG. 9B). TRIM21 knockout prevents PARP and caspase cleavage. To identify downstream effectors of PRLX-93936, RNA-Seq was performed using drug-treated cells. Results demonstrated rapid induction of multiple NFkB and interferon gene targets including IRF1, RNFAIP3, NFKBIA, CD83, CXCL3, and other genes. (FIG. 10). PRLX-93936-induced increase in protein expression and nuclear localization of NFkB (RelA) and IRF1 were confirmed by immunoblot (FIG.11) To develop TRIM21 anti-cancer therapeutics, the series of compounds described in this application was synthesized. Compounds were tested against PANC1 (intact TRIM21) and PANC1-TRIM21 knockout cells to verify TRIM21 dependency. Cell line IC50 values (CellTiterGlo at 72 hours) for each compound against PANC1 cells are shown Table 4. Table 4. IC50 Values

The coding sequence for human NUP98 APD (Uniprot P52948; residues 729-880) was ordered as a codon-optimized gBlock (IDT) and cloned into an N-terminal His6-GST-TEV fusion vector by ligation-independent cloning. The cloned genes were verified by Sanger and whole plasmid sequencing, transformed into Rosetta2(DE3)pLysS chemically competent E. coli cells (Novagene), and grown in Luria Broth supplemented with chloramphenicol and carbenicillin overnight. Saturated overnight cultures were distributed to 1 L flasks containing 2XYT medium supplemented with antibiotics. Protein expression was induced by addition of 400 µM IPTG (final concentration). The temperature was adjusted from 37 °C to 18 °C. After incubation overnight, cells were harvested by centrifugation. Cell pellets were resuspended in ~4 mL / L D800 buffer (20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5; 800 mM NaCl; 10 mM imidazole, pH 8.0; 10 % glycerol, 2 mM beta mercaptoethanol) supplemented with protease inhibitors (1 mM PMSF, 1 mM benzamidine, ~20 μg / mL pepstatin, aprotinin, and leupeptin) and frozen at -80 °C. For TRIM21 PRYSPRY purification, cell pellets were thawed briefly in warm water and lysed by sonication and addition of solid lysozyme before centrifugation at 16,233 g for 1 h at 12 °C. Clarified lysate was mixed with ~0.5 mL / L of growth cobalt resin (TaKaRa) for one hour before centrifugation at low speed to separate the beads, which were then washed by gravity flow with ~25 column volumes ice cold D800 buffer before a final wash with B50 (D800 with 50 mM NaCl) and elution with C50 (B50 with 400 mM imidazole, pH 8.0). Cobalt eluate was applied to a 5 mL anion exchange column (Q HP, Cytiva) and eluted with an 8-column volume gradient from B50 to D800. For TRIM21 PRYSPRY used for crystallography, the anion exchange column peak fractions were pooled and subjected to cleavage with TEV protease for ~4 h at room temperature before adjustment of the imidazole concentration to 50 mM and subsequent removal of uncleaved proteins, tags, and His6-TEV by Ni2+ affinity chromatography on a 5 ml Ni-FF cartridge (Cytiva). The Ni2+ flow through from this step was concentrated by ultrafiltration before application to a 24 mL gel filtration column (S200 increase, Cytiva) primed with GF150 buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP). For uncleaved preparations, S200 peak fractions were again concentrated by ultrafiltration, supplemented with 5% glycerol (v:v, final), and aliquoted and frozen at -80 °C. For cleaved preparations used for crystallography, S200 peak fractions were concentrated and used without storage or addition of glycerol. Protein crystallography. TEV-cleaved TRIM21 PRYSPRY (Uniprot P19474; residues 288-465) was concentrated to ~15 mg / mL and mixed at a 1:1.5 molar ratio with JWZ-8-103 prepared as a 500 mM stock solution in deuterated DMSO. The mixture was allowed to sit for approximately one hour at room temperature before hanging drop crystallization experiments were set up on silanized glass cover slips. The protein-small molecule sample was mixed in a 1:1 ratio (v:v) with mother liquor and incubated ~48 h at 16 °C. Diffracting crystals grew in the following crystallization solution: 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5; 4.2 M Ammonium formate. Crystals were cryopreserved in 1.2-fold concentrated mother liquor solution supplemented with ~1.2-fold molar excess JWZ-8-103 and ~10% glycerol by volume. Diffraction data were collected at Stanford SSRL experimental station BL-12-2 (wavelength = 0.97946 Å; temperature = ~80 K). The detector was a Dectris PILATUS 6M. Data reduction was done using the Xia-2-Aimless pipeline (Winter et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Biol. Crystallogr. 69, 1260–1273 (2013); Evans et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Biol. Crystallogr.69, 1204–1214 (2013)). Crystals formed in space group P41212 with unit cell dimension 99.3 Å, 99.3 Å, and 50.4 Å. Diffraction anisotropy was observed in the best datasets, with interpretable reflections in the best reciprocal space axes (along h k plane) to 1.84 Å and the worst to 2.59 Å (along l axis) as determined by CC1 / 2 > 0.3 (Karplus et al. Science 336, 1030–1033 (2012)). A resolution for refinement of 2.1 Å was chosen based on a completeness threshold of 70 % according to CTRUNCATE. To determine the structure of TRIM21 PRYSPRY, PHASER in CCP4 (McCoy et al. J. Appl. Crystallogr.40, 658–674 (2007); Winn et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Biol. Crystallogr. 67, 235–242 (2011)). and a truncated version of the human TRIM21 AlphaFold2 model (Jumper et al. Nature 596, 583–589 (2021)) (AF-P19474-F1) were used. Initial maps showed clear difference in density unaccounted for by the input model. REFMAC5 (Kovalevskiy et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Struct. Biol.74, 215–227 (2018)) was used to further refine the model. Manual model adjustments were done in Coot (Emsley et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Biol. Crystallogr.60, 2126–2132 (2004)). At later stages of refinement, JWZ-8-103 was prepared using AceDRG (Long et al. Acta Crystallogr. D Struct. Biol.73, 112–122 (2017)) and placed it into the unaccounted-for density. After further refinement, ordered solvent was added, including a water contacting TRIM21-D355. Due to the diffraction anisotropy mentioned above, the final model was refined to high resolution shells extending in reciprocal space to 2.1 Å and, separately, to 2.5 Å to confirm that relatively high Rfree values observed at higher resolution could be ameliorated by a more conservated selection of experimental data, which was the case. There was no obvious streaking or otherwise anisotropy-related pathology observed in the real-space electron density map at any resolution analyzed.93 percent of the peptide bonds are in favorable regions of the Ramachandran plot, and the overall model has a clashscore of 4. The final model and reflections have been deposited in the PDB with identifier 9EK5. JWZ-8-103 binds a shallow pocket lined by hydrophobic amino acid side chains, including TRIM21-L370, -W381, and -W393 (FIG.12). Among the compound-protein interactions that drive SAR are hydrogen bonds between the terminal nitrogen of the JWZ-8- 103 piperazine ring and the D355 side chain acid. TRIM21-F450 and -W381 further coordinate the piperazine ring, and the terminal nitrogen of the piperazine moiety may form a cation-π interaction with these residues, further stabilizing this complex. Indeed, JWZ-8-60, in which the terminal nitrogen is substituted by oxygen, is completely inactive and does not bind TRIM21 by SPR. Observation of an ordered water coordinated by the D355 acid implies further space for chemical exploration. In addition to these interactions, the JWZ-8-103 chlorophenyl ring and its attached ortho-ethoxy group extend into a shallow hydrophobic patch defined by TRIM21-W383. TRIM21-L370, -Y393, -P394, and -Q395 position the quinazoline-4 (3H)-one core, enabling its complete desolvation. A buried hydrogen bond between the free pyramidic nitrogen and the backbone amide hydrogen of L371 reinforces the position of the compound core. Substitution of this nitrogen by carbon in compound 2 ablates activity, consistent with this interpretation. Cellular point mutations underscored the importance of these contacts; TRIM21-D355A rendered PRLX and its analogues inactive, while TRIM21-W381A, -W383A, and -F450A also demonstrated reduced compound activity. Thus, extensive hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions mediate JWZ-8- 103-TRIM21 binding despite the lack of a deep compound binding cleft as commonly seen for substrate-competitive enzyme inhibitors. Further interactions with TRIM21 neo-client proteins, as described below, likely further stabilize compound binding. Example 4 Pharmacokinetics Study and In Vivo Data Pharmacokinetics Study. Pharmacokinetics were tested in male C57BL / 6 mice via intravenous dosing in the tail vein, intraperitoneal injection, and oral gavage. Triplicate mice were dosed at 1 mg / kg IV, 3 mg / kg IP, and 6 mg / kg PO formulated at 0.2 mg / mL (IV), 0.3 mg / mL (IP), and 0.6 mg / mL (PO) in 5 / 5 / 90 DMSO / Tween80 / water. Approximately 20 µL of blood was collected after 5, 15, 30, 60, 120, 240, 360, and 480 min. A micro-sampling technique was used where blood is collected in capillary hematocrit tubes to reduce the total blood taken from the mouse. This allowed a single mouse to be used for the entire time course and reduces inter-individual variability. Additionally, by using small sample volumes the health of the mouse is maintained. Plasma was generated by standard centrifugation techniques, yielding approximately 10 µL of plasma, which was immediately frozen. Plasma, 5 µL was treated with 75 µL of an 80 / 20 acetonitrile / water solution containing 20 ng / mL carbamazepine as an internal standard and allowed to sit on ice for approximately 30 min to precipitate plasma proteins. A standard curve ranging from 1 to 3300 ng / mL was prepared in mouse plasma and processed with the samples. Samples were filtered through a 0.2 micron filter and directly analyzed. Drug concentrations were determined by mass spectrometry using a Sciex 5500 mass spectrometer using multiple reaction monitoring using the mass transition of 365.2 to 99 for PRLX and 418.2 to 99 for JWZ-8-103 and comparing the peak area to the area of the carbamazepine internal standard. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a non-compartmental model (Phoenix WinNonlin, Pharsight Inc.). All procedures were approved by the Scripps Florida IACUC, and the Scripps vivarium is fully AAALAC accredited. In vivo Xenograft Procedures. All animal procedures were performed by the Transgenic, Knockout and Tumor Model Center (TKTC) in accordance with the Stanford Administrative Panel for Laboratory Animal Care (APLAC), under protocol number 34416. Six-week-old female NOD.Cg-PrkdcscidIl2rgtm1Wjl / SzJ (NSG) mice were obtained from Jackson Laboratories. Xenograft tumors were established using pathogen-free PANC1 cell lines (ATCC CRL-1469). A total of 5 × 106cells in a 100 µL suspension of PBS / Matrigel® (1:1) were injected subcutaneously into the shaved lateral flank of anesthetized mice. Tumor length and width were measured twice a week using external calipers. Starting seven days after inoculation, tumor volume (mm3) was calculated using the modified ellipsoidal formula: V = ½ (Length × Width2) (Miller et al. Tomography 2, 17–25 (2016)). When tumors reached an average size of 150 mm3, mice were treated daily for 21 days by intraperitoneal injection with vehicle, PRLX or JWZ-8-103, as indicated below. Mice were euthanized on day 60 or earlier if they met early euthanasia criteria (e.g., tumor > 2500 mm3). For PK / PD studies, compound administration was performed in tumor with an average of 500 mm3. After 24 h, terminal blood, liver, and tumors were obtained for downstream analysis. Compound preparation for in vivo administration. The injection solutions were prepared fresh on each day of compound administration. First, a stock solution was prepared for each compound by dissolving 15 mg of PRLX in 150 µL or 20 mg JWZ-8-103 in 200 µL of solvent (0.25% Tween-80, 0.1% benzyl alcohol, and 350 mM acetic acid). Later, stock solutions were 1:20 dilute using 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer and 32 mM sucrose, pH 6.8. The solutions were then filter-sterilized using 0.22 µm membrane. Mice received 200 µL containing Vehicle, PRLX (50 mg / kg) or JWZ-8-103 (50 mg / kg), an additional dilution was made using sterile 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer and 32 mM sucrose, pH 6.8 for JWZ- 8-103 (15 mg / kg). Tumor data collection. Investigators that provided treatment and monitored tumor growth were blinded to treatment designation. Tumor size was measured using electronic caliper, then volume values were plotted using GraphPad Prism version 10. Results and Discussion. JWZ-8-103 and PRLX-93936 were administered to mice as a single dose via intravenous (IV), intraperitoneal (IP), or oral (PO) routes (FIGS. 13A-13B). JWZ-8-103 displayed significantly improved pharmacokinetic profiles compared to PRLX- 93936. Following a single modest dose of 3 mg / kg (IP, FIG. 13A), JWZ-8-103 exhibited favorable plasma exposure (Cmax= 2.78 µM) and area under the curve AUC = 6.17 µM*h), a serum half-life of 2.3 hours, and low systemic clearance (CL= 18.3 mL / min / kg). Notably, JWZ-8-103 displayed oral bioavailability of 74%; with a maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of 2.12 µM and an AUC of 8.89 µM*h following oral dosing underscoring its clinical potential via this route (Table 5). Table 5. Pharmacokinetic parameters of PRLX-93936 and JWZ-8-103 following IV, IP, and PO compound administration Anti-tumor efficacy was then evaluated in the PANC-1 xenograft model. A full randomized efficacy study was conducted in which 40 NSG mice were randomized into four groups (n = 10 / group) and treated daily for three weeks with vehicle, JWZ-8-103 (15 mg / kg or 50 mg / kg), or PRLX (50 mg / kg) via intraperitoneal injection. Mice treated with JWZ-8- 103 demonstrated potent tumor growth inhibition, with reductions of 85.8% and 87% in tumor volume at the end of the experiment at doses of 15 and 50 mg / kg, respectively. At 50 mg / kg, JWZ-8-103 induced robust tumor regression; at time of final dosing, the average vehicle tumor size was 545 mm³ versus 77 mm³ in the treated animals (FIG.14). Both agents were well-tolerated without signs of toxicity.
