Description

[0001]Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) TITLE OF THE INVENTION Acyclic Glutarimide Compounds, Compositions Comprising Same, and Methods of Use Thereof STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT This invention was made with government support under CA197589 awarded by National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in the invention. CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.63 / 684,705, filed August 19, 2024, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND Targeted protein degradation (TPD) has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic approach combatting fatal diseases and cancers. By hijacking the cell’s own machinery, small molecules can either initiate non-native protein-protein interactions (PPIs) or stabilize existing ones to target and degrade specific proteins of interest. In eukaryotic cells, protein regulation primarily occurs through two recycling machineries, the proteasome and lysosome. TPD has predominantly focused on small molecule-based therapies that exploit the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) to degrade target proteins. The UPS comprises an activating enzyme (E1), a conjugating enzyme (E2), and a ligase (E3). These components work together with other proteins to facilitate the ubiquitination of proteins. The polyubiquitinated protein is subsequently recognized and degraded by the 26S proteosome. Most TPD strategies target the E3 ligase, as this component binds to the target protein while the E2 enzyme mediates the ubiquitination process. Although there are over 600 E3 ligases capable of initiating protein degradation, only two (i.e., cereblon (CRBN) and von-Hippel- Lindau tumor suppressor (VHL)) are commonly utilized in TPD. CRBN is notably versatile, modulating proteins through both recruitment of non-native PPIs and stabilization of native PPIs. Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional degraders that consist of two distinct ligands connected by a linker; one ligand binds the E3 ligase and the other binds to the target protein. By virtue of these distinct ligands, PROTACs can recruit - 1 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) proteins to the E3 ligase that would not typically interact. Conversely, immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) bind to the E3 ligase and stabilize its interaction with the target protein. This prolonged induced proximity with the ligase leads to the polyubiquitination and degradation of the target protein. Both TPD technologies have shown considerable promise, with PROTACs ARV-110, ARV-471 and NX-2127 entering clinical trials, and IMiDs including thalidomide, lenalidomide, and pomalidomide having received FDA approval, with additional IMiDs in clinical trials. While cereblon ligands have demonstrated utility in both PROTAC and IMiD therapeutic applications, the limited reactivity of the requisite glutarimide moiety in such compounds limits the scope of conjugation techniques and / or masking group approaches that can be utilized. Stimulus-sensitive technologies, such as antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) and degrader antibody conjugates (DACs), rely on drug or degrader conjugation to a cleavable linker, yet many drug moieties and / or CRBN-recruiting degraders are not suitable for conjugation to the glutarimide through traditional methods. Consequently, permissive chemical modifications must be introduced elsewhere in the degrader or drug, often compromising potency and necessitating extensive optimization. Thus, there is a need in the art for cereblon ligands, or precursors thereof, which permit alternative conjugation techniques and / or masking group approaches, and methods of using thereof. The disclosure addresses this need.

Description Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) and immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) targeting CRBN all feature the conserved glutarimide ring (FIGs.1-2). Thalidomide was among the first compounds identified to bind and interact with the E3 ligase CRBN, thus many IMiDs and PROTACs contain its phthalimide or related isoindoline substructures. Additionally, novel CRBN binding modalities that diverge from the traditional thalidomide analogs have emerged, exemplified by the IMiDs CC-122 and CFT7455. PROTACs demonstrated greater structural diversity from the traditional phthalimide substructure, leading to enhanced stability and reduced off-target interactions. Fewer IMiD scaffolds have been developed, likely due to the distinct mechanisms of action and binding modes of IMiDs versus PROTACs, with IMiDs being more sensitive towards structural modifications. Interestingly, the glutarimide moiety of both IMiDs and PROTACs is conserved across all listed compounds. This underscores the critical binding role of the glutarimide to CRBN, consistent with the crystal structure or thalidomide. In the thalidomide:CRBN cocrystal structure, the two carbonyl groups and nitrogen of the glutarimide engage in strong interactions with the CRBN backbone. Limited modifications of the glutarimide moiety have been explored, except for ligands incorporating a dihydrouracil, yet all three key interactions remain unaltered. While thalidomide was serendipitously discovered as a CRBN ligand, the natural substrate for CRBN remains unknown. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, it has been proposed that C-terminal glutarimide moieties might arise from post-translational modifications, leading to ubiquitination and subsequent protein degradation. Thus, it has been hypothesized that glutarimides could function as natural occurring degrons involved protein regulation. Their studies demonstrated that glutarimides could form through intramolecular attack by the amide - 9 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) group of an asparagine or glutamine residue on the protein backbone, cleaving the protein in a manner analogous to inteins, leaving a glutarimide present at the C-terminus. To observe glutarimide formation and cleaved proteins, LCMS was employed and an in-vitro time-course experiment was conducted. However, glutarimide levels were found to be extremely low (<1%) at all pH’s tested and after 250 hours. In one aspect, the disclosure describes the use of IMiDs to optimize glutarimide cyclization and demonstrate rapid and efficient cyclization to form the glutarimide. By modifying IMiDs with an open-form glutarimide, equipotent degradation of target proteins has been achieved, as compared to the parent compounds containing the cyclic glutarimide. This “pro-degron” approach can be applied to other IMiDs and PROTACs, given their shared glutarimide moiety. Since the cyclization process is highly efficient and does not affect compound potency, the uncyclized glutarimide can serve as an alternative attachment point for release of unmodified degraders. As demonstrated herein, the pro-degrons can be attached to stimulus recognizing agents through the formation of N-acyl carbamates, whereas the cyclic glutarimide counterpart cannot. Furthermore, efficient cleavage and release of the pro- degron compounds occur following stimulus treatment. The developed pro-degron represents an attractive alternative for the attachment and delivery of CRBN-based degraders. In one aspect, the disclosure relates to the unexpected discovery that the acyclic glutarimide precursors of the disclosure readily undergo cyclization to form active cereblon degrader moieties. Thus, in one aspect, the disclosure demonstrates that acyclic glutarimide precursors of the disclosure, upon activation by demasking to form cereblon degraders comprising an intact glutarimide, can be achieved in situ, and this strategy is applicable to PROTACs, IMiDs, and / or DACs. The disclosures of U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US20190233433A1 are incorporated herein in their entireties by reference.

In certain embodiments, the “leaving group” is a “good leaving group.” In certain embodiments, a “leaving group” is “good” where the displaced group is a weak base and / or the leaving group has a low energy barrier for displacement. Non-limiting examples of suitable “leaving groups” include halogens (e.g., F, Cl, Br, and I; preferably Cl, Br, or I), alkoxides, tosylate, mesylate, triflate, acetate, camphorsulfonate, and aryloxides. The term “linker” as used herein refers to an organic moiety that connects two parts of a compound (e.g., two small molecule drugs, or a small molecule drug and an antibody). The linker can be, in non-limiting examples, a direct bond, a single atom (e.g., -O-), a peptide, or a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene or heteroalkylene moiety (e.g., polyethylene glycol). One skilled in the art would be apprised of the common linkers suitable for use in antibody drug conjugates and methods of preparation thereof. The terms “masking group,” “protecting group,” and “blocking group” are used interchangeably herein to refer to the chemical modification or “blocking” of an integral functional group by attachment of a second moiety to disguise the chemical reactivity of the functional group and prevent it from reacting in an undesired manner during reactions at other sites in the molecule. Such modification is reversible, and allows subsequent conversion back to the original functional group by suitable treatment. In many cases, such masking formally interconverts structural functionality (e.g., a primary amine masked by acetylation becomes a substituted amide which can be later converted back to the primary amine by appropriate hydrolysis). In certain embodiments, the “masking group,” “protecting group,” or “blocking group” are selectively removed in response to stimuli (e.g., exposure to UV light, pH changes, and exposure to oxidants or reductants, inter alia).

In certain embodiments, the appropriate substituent to decrease or eliminate the susceptibility of the aromatic ring to metabolic reactions is, by way of example only, a deuterium, a halogen, or an alkyl group. - 36 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) Compounds described herein also include isotopically-labeled compounds wherein one or more atoms is replaced by an atom having the same atomic number, but 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 described herein include and are not limited to2H,3H,11C,13C,14C,36Cl,18F,123I,125I,13N,15N,15O,17O,18O,32P, and35S. In certain embodiments, isotopically-labeled compounds are useful in drug and / or substrate tissue distribution studies. In other embodiments, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium affords greater metabolic stability (for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements). In yet other embodiments, substitution with positron emitting isotopes, such as11C,18F,15O, and13N, is useful in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically-labeled compounds are prepared by any suitable method or by processes using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagent in place of the non-labeled reagent otherwise employed. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein are labeled by other means, including, but not limited to, the use of chromophores or fluorescent moieties, bioluminescent labels, or chemiluminescent labels. The compounds described herein, and other related compounds having different substituents are synthesized using techniques and materials described herein and as described, for example, in Fieser & Fieser’s Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-17 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991); Rodd’s Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5 and Supplementals (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989); Organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley and Sons, 1991), Larock’s Comprehensive Organic Transformations (VCH Publishers Inc., 1989), March, Advanced Organic Chemistry 4thEd., (Wiley 1992); Carey & Sundberg, Advanced Organic Chemistry 4th Ed., Vols. A and B (Plenum 2000,2001), and Green & Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis 3rd Ed., (Wiley 1999) (all of which are incorporated by reference for such disclosure). General methods for the preparation of compound as described herein are modified by the use of appropriate reagents and conditions, for the introduction of the various moieties found in the formula as provided herein. Compounds described herein are synthesized using any suitable procedures starting from compounds that are available from commercial sources, or are prepared using procedures described herein. In certain embodiments, reactive functional groups, such as hydroxyl, amino, imino, thio or carboxy groups, are protected in order to avoid their unwanted participation in reactions. Protecting groups are used to block some or all of the reactive moieties and prevent - 37 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) such groups from participating in chemical reactions until the protective group is removed. In other embodiments, each protective group is removable by a different means. Protective groups that are cleaved under totally disparate reaction conditions fulfill the requirement of differential removal. In certain embodiments, protective groups are removed by acid, base, reducing conditions (such as, for example, hydrogenolysis), and / or oxidative conditions. Groups such as trityl, dimethoxytrityl, acetal and t-butyldimethylsilyl are acid labile and are used to protect carboxy and hydroxy reactive moieties in the presence of amino groups protected with Cbz groups, which are removable by hydrogenolysis, and Fmoc groups, which are base labile. Carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with base labile groups such as, but not limited to, methyl, ethyl, and acetyl, in the presence of amines that are blocked with acid labile groups, such as t-butyl carbamate, or with carbamates that are both acid and base stable but hydrolytically removable. In certain embodiments, carboxylic acid and hydroxy reactive moieties are blocked with hydrolytically removable protective groups such as the benzyl group, while amine groups capable of hydrogen bonding with acids are blocked with base labile groups such as Fmoc. Carboxylic acid reactive moieties are protected by conversion to simple ester compounds as exemplified herein, which include conversion to alkyl esters, or are blocked with oxidatively-removable protective groups such as 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl, while co- existing amino groups are blocked with fluoride labile silyl carbamates. Allyl blocking groups are useful in the presence of acid- and base- protecting groups since the former are stable and are subsequently removed by metal or pi-acid catalysts. For example, an allyl-blocked carboxylic acid is deprotected with a palladium-catalyzed reaction in the presence of acid labile t-butyl carbamate or base-labile acetate amine protecting groups. Yet another form of protecting group is a resin to which a compound or intermediate is attached. As long as the residue is attached to the resin, that functional group is blocked and does not react. Once released from the resin, the functional group is available to react. Typically blocking / protecting groups may be selected from allyl, benzyl (Bn), benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz), allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc), methyl, ethyl, t-butyl, t- butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS), 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxycarbonyl (Teoc), t-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), para-methoxybenzyl (PMB), triphenylmethyl (trityl), acetyl, and fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (FMOC). Other protecting groups, plus a detailed description of techniques applicable to the creation of protecting groups and their removal are described in Greene & Wuts, Protective - 38 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, NY, 1999, and Kocienski, Protective Groups, Thieme Verlag, New York, NY, 1994, which are incorporated herein by reference for such disclosure.

In certain embodiments, formulations are stored at refrigerated temperatures (e.g., 2-8 °C) and subjected to repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The regimen of administration may affect what constitutes an effective amount. The therapeutic formulations may be administered to the subject either prior to or after the onset of the disease or disorder. Further, several divided dosages, as well as staggered dosages may be administered daily or sequentially, or the dose may be continuously infused, or may be a bolus injection. Further, the dosages of the therapeutic formulations may be proportionally increased or decreased as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic or prophylactic situation. Administration of the compositions described herein to a patient, preferably a mammal, more preferably a human, may be carried out using known procedures, at dosages and for periods of time effective to treat the disease or disorder in the patient. An effective amount of the therapeutic compound necessary to achieve a therapeutic effect may vary according to factors such as the state of the disease or disorder in the patient; the age, sex, and weight of the patient; and the ability of the therapeutic compound to treat the disease or disorder in the patient. Dosage regimens may be adjusted to provide the optimum therapeutic response. For example, several divided doses may be administered daily or the dose may be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. A non- limiting example of an effective dose range for a therapeutic compound described herein is from about 1 and 5,000 mg / kg of body weight / per day. One of ordinary skill in the art would be able to study the relevant factors and make the determination regarding the effective amount of the therapeutic compound without undue experimentation. Actual dosage levels of the active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active ingredient that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and mode of administration, without being toxic to the patient. In particular, the selected dosage level depends upon a variety of factors including the activity of the particular compound employed, the time of administration, the rate of excretion of the compound, the duration of the treatment, other drugs, compounds or materials used in combination with the compound, the age, sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of the patient being treated, and like factors well, known in the medical arts. - 41 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) A medical doctor, e.g., physician or veterinarian, having ordinary skill in the art may readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition required. For example, the physician or veterinarian could start doses of the compounds described herein employed in the pharmaceutical composition at levels lower than that required in order to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. In particular embodiments, it is especially advantageous to formulate the compound in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the patients to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of therapeutic compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical vehicle. The dosage unit forms of the compound(s) described herein are dictated by and directly dependent on (a) the unique characteristics of the therapeutic compound and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved, and (b) the limitations inherent in the art of compounding / formulating such a therapeutic compound. In certain embodiments, the compositions described herein are formulated using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or carriers. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The carrier may be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. The proper fluidity may be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it is preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, or polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions may be brought about by including in the composition an agent which delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate or gelatin. In certain embodiments, the compositions described herein are administered to the patient in dosages that range from one to five times per day or more. In other embodiments, the compositions described herein are administered to the patient in range of dosages that include, but are not limited to, once every day, every two, days, every three days to once a - 42 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) week, and once every two weeks.

Thus, single unit dosage - 46 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) forms suitable for oral administration, such as tablets, capsules, gelcaps, and caplets that are adapted for controlled-release are encompassed by the compositions and dosage forms described herein. Most controlled-release pharmaceutical products have a common goal of improving drug therapy over that achieved by their non-controlled counterparts. Ideally, the use of an optimally designed controlled-release preparation in medical treatment is characterized by a minimum of drug substance being employed to cure or control the condition in a minimum amount of time. Advantages of controlled-release formulations include extended activity of the drug, reduced dosage frequency, and increased patient compliance. In addition, controlled-release formulations can be used to affect the time of onset of action or other characteristics, such as blood level of the drug, and thus can affect the occurrence of side effects. Most controlled-release formulations are designed to initially release an amount of drug that promptly produces the desired therapeutic effect, and gradually and continually release of other amounts of drug to maintain this level of therapeutic effect over an extended period of time. In order to maintain this constant level of drug in the body, the drug must be released from the dosage form at a rate that will replace the amount of drug being metabolized and excreted from the body. Controlled-release of an active ingredient can be stimulated by various inducers, for example pH, temperature, enzymes, water, or other physiological conditions or compounds. The term “controlled-release component” is defined herein as a compound or compounds, including, but not limited to, polymers, polymer matrices, gels, permeable membranes, liposomes, or microspheres or a combination thereof that facilitates the controlled-release of the active ingredient. In some embodiments, the compound(s) described herein are administered to a patient, alone or in combination with another pharmaceutical agent, using a sustained release formulation. In some embodiments, the compound(s) described herein are administered to a patient, alone or in combination with another pharmaceutical agent, using a sustained release formulation. The term delayed release is used herein in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that provides for an initial release of the drug after some delay following drug administration and that mat, although not necessarily, includes a delay of from about 10 minutes up to about 12 hours. The term pulsatile release is used herein in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that provides release of the drug in such a way as to produce pulsed plasma - 47 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) profiles of the drug after drug administration. The term immediate release is used in its conventional sense to refer to a drug formulation that provides for release of the drug immediately after drug administration. As used herein, short-term refers to any period of time up to and including about 8 hours, about 7 hours, about 6 hours, about 5 hours, about 4 hours, about 3 hours, about 2 hours, about 1 hour, about 40 minutes, about 20 minutes, or about 10 minutes and any or all whole or partial increments thereof after drug administration after drug administration. As used herein, rapid-offset refers to any period of time up to and including about 8 hours, about 7 hours, about 6 hours, about 5 hours, about 4 hours, about 3 hours, about 2 hours, about 1 hour, about 40 minutes, about 20 minutes, or about 10 minutes, and any and all whole or partial increments thereof after drug administration. Dosing The therapeutically effective amount or dose of a compound or conjugate (e.g., ADC or DAC) described herein depends on the age, sex and weight of the patient, the current medical condition of the patient and the progression of the disease or disorder in the patient being treated. The skilled artisan is able to determine appropriate dosages depending on these and other factors. A suitable dose of a compound described herein can be in the range of from about 0.01 mg to about 5,000 mg per day, such as from about 0.1 mg to about 1,000 mg, for example, from about 1 mg to about 500 mg, such as about 5 mg to about 250 mg per day. The dose may be administered in a single dosage or in multiple dosages, for example from 1 to 4 or more times per day. When multiple dosages are used, the amount of each dosage may be the same or different. For example, a dose of 1 mg per day may be administered as two 0.5 mg doses, with about a 12-hour interval between doses. It is understood that the amount of compound dosed per day may be administered, in non-limiting examples, every day, every other day, every 2 days, every 3 days, every 4 days, or every 5 days. For example, with every other day administration, a 5 mg per day dose may be initiated on Monday with a first subsequent 5 mg per day dose administered on Wednesday, a second subsequent 5 mg per day dose administered on Friday, and so on. In the case wherein the patient’s status does improve, upon the doctor’s discretion the administration of the compound(s) described herein is optionally given continuously; alternatively, the dose of drug being administered is temporarily reduced or temporarily suspended for a certain length of time (i.e., a “drug holiday”). The length of the drug holiday - 48 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) optionally varies between 2 days and 1 year, including by way of example only, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 10 days, 12 days, 15 days, 20 days, 28 days, 35 days, 50 days, 70 days, 100 days, 120 days, 150 days, 180 days, 200 days, 250 days, 280 days, 300 days, 320 days, 350 days, or 365 days. The dose reduction during a drug holiday includes from 10%-100%, including, by way of example only, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 100%. Once improvement of the patient’s conditions has occurred, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or the frequency of administration, or both, is reduced to a level at which the improved disease is retained. In certain embodiments, patients require intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrence of symptoms and / or infection. The compounds described herein can be formulated in unit dosage form. The term “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosage for patients undergoing treatment, with each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, optionally in association with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier. The unit dosage form may be for a single daily dose or one of multiple daily doses (e.g., about 1 to 4 or more times per day). When multiple daily doses are used, the unit dosage form may be the same or different for each dose. Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such therapeutic regimens are optionally determined in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, the determination of the LD50(the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50(the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, which is expressed as the ratio between LD50and ED50. The data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies are optionally used in formulating a range of dosage for use in human. The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED50 with minimal toxicity. The dosage optionally varies within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.

Example 1: Design, preliminary evaluation, and optimization of pro-degron cyclization to prepare immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) It has been demonstrated that glutarimides can form through the intramolecular cyclization of an amino acid and the protein backbone. However, this process was shown to be slow and inefficient, thus it has been hypothesized that substituting the electrophilic amide with an ester might enhance the conversion efficiency. To test this hypothesis, conversion of an uncyclized pro-degron to the glutarimide was monitored by assessing the degradation of a target protein. The cyclized IMiD (Compound 1-1) achieved potent degradation of the target protein with a DC50 of 2.1 nM (FIGs.3A-3C). Degradation was also observed for the IMiD mimicking the amide backbone (Compound 1-2), albeit at significantly higher concentrations, consistent with the slow conversion reported in the literature. In alignment with the hypothesis, the compound with a tert-butyl ester as the electrophile (Compound 1-3) exhibited improved potency compared to the amide-based - 81 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) compound. In addition to HiBiT assays used to quantify degradation, these results were validated by western blot analysis. To confirm that the degradation was mediated by CRBN, it was demonstrated that no degradation occurred when cells were pretreated with a CRBN- degrading PROTAC (FIG.3C). Having established that the pro-degron containing IMiDs can undergo cyclization to induce degradation, a structure-activity relationship study was conducted to identify attractive leaving groups that would maximize cyclization and degradation (FIG.4 and Table 1). Following the evaluation of the tert-butyl ester, alternative leaving groups were evaluated, including methyl (Compound 1-6) and ethyl (Compound 1-8) esters, which demonstrated improved cyclization. Phenol (Compound 1-7), trifluoroethoxy (Compound 1-9), and para- nitro phenol (Compound 1-10) leaving groups were also evaluated. Surprisingly, all of these leaving groups significantly enhanced degradation, with Compound 1-6 demonstrating equipotent degradation after 24 hours. Table 1.

Although the glutamine analog (i.e., branched alpha to the amide) used in the pro-degron produced the desired glutarimide product, it did not fully mimic the structure of the glutamine (Table 2). Therefore, IMiDs incorporating L-glutamine, which is branched alpha to the ester, were synthesized and the effectiveness of the methyl (Compound 1-13) and ethyl ester (Compound 1-14) were compared (Table 2). These compounds exhibited potency equivalent to their counterparts, indicating that the branching of the amino acid does not significantly impact cyclization. Table 2.

Lenalidomide, a well-known SALL4 degrader, was modified to incorporate the methyl ester pro-degron. Following a 48 hour treatment, equipotent SALL4 degradation was observed, demonstrating that the pro- degron approach is applicable to other glutarimide-bearing compounds targeting different proteins of interest. Example 2: Cleavable protecting groups permit masking of the glutarimide moiety of celebron ligands and novel conjugation techniques for PROTACs, DACS, and / or IMiDs CRBN-based degraders constitute a large portion of the degraders currently in clinical trials. These degraders, including both PROTACs and IMiDs, vary in their CRBN ligand but consistently feature a glutarimide moiety. The development of alternative methods for achieving glutarimide formation within cells expands their potential application, not only for standalone dosing but also for innovative conjugation techniques. Degrader antibody conjugates (DACs) are an emerging therapeutic strategy that uses antibodies to specifically delivery degraders to tumor cells. This approach is analogous to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), but the cytotoxic drug is replaced with a degrader (which may also possess cytotoxic properties). Conjugation involving the glutarimide would be ideal for this technique, as it would allow for the release of an unmodified degrader, maximizing its potency. However, the glutarimide is not amenable to facile conjugation through popular techniques, such as carbamates or benzyl attachments, leading to degraders being modified with functional groups more conducive for conjugation. Such modification can significantly reduce the degrader’s potency, and identifying a functional group that does not interfere with degradation can be a challenging and time-consuming process. To determine whether the pro-degron could enable conjugation techniques not feasible with cyclized glutarimides, Compound 1-16 (DHC-585), where the amide of the uncyclized glutamine is conjugated to a UV-labile group via a carbamate, was synthesized (FIG.6). A similar reaction with the cyclized glutarimide yielded no product, indicating that - 84 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) the amides are amenable to carbamate formation, whereas glutarimides are not. Exposure of Compound 1-16 with 365 nm UV light from 30 seconds to 4 minutes triggered the release of the amide-bearing degrader, demonstrating that the pro-degron compounds can be conjugated and released in a manner not achievable with that the glutarimides. Thus, the pro-degron can be masked using various linkage types (FIG.7A). As previously demonstrated, carbamate formation can be achieved with the amide of glutamine and can be applied to both analogs regardless of branched location. As reported in the literature, asparagine can also undergo the same intramolecular cyclization to yield the cyclic aspartimide. Thus the amide groups of both glutamine and asparagine can be masked via carbamates for release of degraders. An alternative conjugation technique involves masking the carboxylic acid groups of the glutamine and asparagine analogs with a stimulus- responsive group via a carboxylic acid linkage. Examples of masked CRBN degraders are shown in FIGs.7B-7C: the first depicts a hydrogen peroxide sensitive masking group attached via a carbamate, while the second depicts a DAC that releases the amide following enzymatic cleavage. Recent studies have explored innovative conjugation strategies to glutarimide, such as a carbamates or carbonates with methene spacers and methyleneoxy phosphates. If proven effective, these methods could also be applied to conjugate the pro-degron. Additionally, given the ability of the amide to form conjugates, it can be utilized in other stimulus- responsive techniques such as ultraviolet light, H2O2, phosphatase nitroreductase, trans- cyclooctene, NAD-(P)H quinone dehydrogenase, sulfamate acetamides, and methyl acrylamides. In summary, the disclosure describes the design and validation of degron cyclization of glutarimide precursors, enabling equipotent protein degradation. Additionally, these pro- degrons grant access to conjugation techniques not applicable to the cyclic degrons so they can be employed in stimulus-responsive settings. Example 3: Development and validation of prodegraders capable of intramolecular cyclization It has been previously demonstrated that in vitro glutarimide formation within a synthetic, glutamine-containing peptide substrate was slow and inefficient, with less than 1% detected by Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LCMS) after multiple days. Despite the low conversion rate, it was hypothesized that this naturally occurring intramolecular reaction was not exclusive to peptide substrates and could be integrated into an IMiD-based - 85 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) scaffold. Specifically, it was proposed that replacing the glutarimide with a glutamine analog mimicking the peptide backbone, or an optimized analog, would facilitate cyclization, thereby transforming an inactive prodegrader into an active, glutarimide-bearing degrader. To test this, a prodegrader mimicking a peptide backbone was synthesized and in cellulo degradation of HiBiT-tagged GSPT1 was measured as the primary readout of prodegrader activity, albeit with low efficacy. Intracellular glutarimide formation of glutamine analog- containing prodegraders were validated with LCMS, and it was confirmed by ITC that prior to cyclization, prodegraders do not bind to CRBN. GSPT1 is an essential protein involved in protein translation termination and was chosen as the target neosubstrate to test the prodegrader strategy. Several GSPT1 degraders have been developed for clinical applications, such as CC-885 and CC-90009 for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), as well as MRT-2359 for treatment of MYC-driven solid tumors. A potent, GSPT1-targeting IMiD, DHC-286, (FIG.9A) (FIG.29) was used as the parent IMiD for the development of the prodegrader analogs. Adegrader with a low nanomolar half-maximal degradation concentration (DC50), would induce measurable degradation even if only a small quantity of the prodegrader cyclized (i.e., 1% cyclization of an IMiD with a DC50 = 10 nM would result in a DC50 = 1 µM). To implement this strategya prodegrader analog of DHC-286 featuring an electrophilic amide designed to mimic the peptide backbone was first synthesized, with the aim of replicating native-like glutarimide cyclization. The amide analog (DHC-291) was synthesized from the α-branched tert-butyl ester-protected glutamine, DHC-287 (FIG.9A) (FIG.30). The α-branched glutamine analog was chosen over the naturally occurring ^-branched analog, as it was hypothesized the α- branching would have minimal effect on cyclization efficiency. The cyclized parent IMiD (DHC-286), the amide analog (DHC-291), and the tert-butyl ester intermediate (DHC-287) were tested for GSPT1HiBiTdegradation in HEK293T cells stably expressing the GSPT1HiBiTreporter protein. Encouragingly, GSPT1HiBiTdegradation was observed for the peptide backbone mimic prodegrader, DHC-291, (DC50 = 6.5 ± 1.7 µM), though this was ~1000-fold less potent than DHC-286 (DC50 = 5.6 ± 3.2 nM) (FIG.3B). The intermediate, DHC-287, exhibited slightly higher degradation (DC50= 2.5 ± 0.6 µM) than the amide (DHC-291) analog, suggesting that cyclization is tunable and dependent on the electrophilicity of the carbonyl. GSPT1 degradation of DHC-287 was further validated by western blot (FIG.13). GSPT1HiBiTlevels in DHC-287 treated cells were rescued upon chemical CRBN knockdown through pretreatment with a CRBN-degrading PROTAC, confirming that the mechanism of - 86 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) GSPT1 degradation was CRBN-mediated. To investigate degradation kinetics, the degradation of GSPT1HiBiTby DHC-286 and DHC-287 was monitored over 48 hours. The cyclized IMiD, DHC-286, rapidly decreases GSPT1HiBiTlevels, reaching a maximal DC50 within 12 hours (FIG.9B). In contrast, the DC50of DHC-287 improved over 48 hours, suggesting prolonged cyclization and gradual formation of the active degrader (FIG.9C). It was next sought to demonstrate that the prodegrader analogs could not bind CRBN to induce GSPT1 degradation prior to cyclization. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) confirmed that DHC-286 exhibited a KDof 2.4 ± 1.4 µM (FIG.9D), consistent with reported ITC KD values for IMiDs binding to CRBNMidi*, whereas DHC-287 did not measurably bind to CRBNMidi*(FIGs.9E-9F) To further validate intramolecular cyclization, HEK293T cells expressing GSPT1HiBiTcells were treated with DHC-287 for various durations, following which intracellular concentrations of the cyclized product (DHC-286) and the hydrolyzed product (DHC-289) were quantified via mass spectrometry (FIG.9H). DHC-289 can form via hydrolysis of the tert-butyl ester or glutarimide, which is a common decomposition product for thalidomide analogs. While DHC-286 and DHC-289 were only present in trace quantities after 4 hours, the formation of both the cyclized and hydrolyzed products were observed at later time points (FIG.9H). These findings demonstrate that DHC-287 undergoes intramolecular cyclization in cellulo within the degradation timeframe, supporting the hypothesis that prodegraders cyclize to form glutarimide-bearing active compound. Example 4: Optimization of prodegraders to enable potent degradation It was next sought to optimize the cyclization rates of the prodegraders to enhance degradation kinetics and potency. Given that the bulky tert-butyl ester analog DHC-287 was more potent than the amide analog DHC-291, ester-containing prodegraders were pursued. Esters are generally more amenable to nucleophilic substitution than amides and are commonly used in prodrug design. Less bulky methyl (DHC-562) and ethyl (DHC-564) ester prodegraders were synthesized, in addition to more activated esters such as phenyl (DHC- 563), trifluoroethyl (DHC-565), and p-nitrophenyl ester (DHC-575) (FIG.10A andFIG.31). GSPT1HiBiTdegradation was measured at 8- and 24-hours for these ester analogs (FIG.10B). Within 8 hours, nearly all analogs exhibited potencies within 5-fold of the parent degrader, representing a significant improvement over DHC-287, which was ~1000x weaker. Structure- activity relationships (SAR) indicated that at 8 hours, the more activated esters (DHC-563, DHC-565, and DHC-575) were more potent than the methyl and ethyl esters, likely due to their faster cyclization. By 24 hours, however, the methyl ester DHC-562 emerged as the - 87 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) most potent prodegrader, nearly equipotent with DHC-286. From 8- to 24- hours, DHC-286 and the activated esters exhibited, at most, a 2-fold increase in degradation (DC50), whereas DHC-562 and DHC-564 had a 6-fold and 4-fold increase in DC50 values, respectively. It was speculated that these differences arise from the latter having slower cyclization and hydrolysis rates, exemplified by DHC-287 exhibiting generation of the active IMiD over a prolonged period (FIG.9C). In conjunction, ^-branched tert-butyl (DHC-549), ethyl (DHC-583) and methyl (DHC-582) ester analogs were synthesized and evaluated for GSPT1 degradation at 24 hours to investigate whether the branching of the glutamine moiety modulates cyclization rate and influences target degradation (FIG.10C, FIG.14, and FIG 32). Compared to their α-branched counterparts (FIG.10D), no sizeable differences in potency were observed for ^-branched glutamine esters, suggesting that both glutamine analog series have similar cyclization kinetics. Additionally, since the inductive effects of the amide in the isoindolone ring at the α- or γ-position did not impact degradation, it was anticipated that a broad range of chemical matter, including alternative CRBN-binding scaffolds, may be tolerated. To further explore the observed discrepancies in DC50 fold changes from 8 hours to 24 hours, the intramolecular cyclization rates of the GSPT1 prodegraders were monitored in vitro. Compounds were incubated in 20 mM potassium phosphate buffer at 37 °C, and prodegrader conversion was analyzed via LCMS over a 24 hour period (FIG.10E). As expected, cyclization rates varied among the compounds, with the more activated esters (DHC-563, DHC-565, DHC-575) undergoing rapid cyclization, reaching a maximal conversion within 5 hours, after which the quantity of hydrolyzed, inactive product (DHC- 289) increased (FIG.15). In alignment with the degradation data, the methyl, DHC-562, and ethyl, DHC-564, esters cyclized more gradually over the 24 hours, with 42% and 21% conversion into the cyclized product, respectively. The cyclization rates were found to be dependent on the composition of the buffer; however, the relative rates between the compounds remained the same (FIG.16). These cyclization kinetics explain why activated esters exhibited more potent degradation at 8 hours, since most of the compounds had already cyclized, but displayed only a relatively small improvement in potency from the 8- to 24-hour time point. Conversely, DHC-562 and DHC-564, cyclized more gradually and produced lower levels of active degrader at 8 hours, exhibiting weaker GSPT1 degradation at this timepoint; however, their continued cyclization through 24 hours ultimately contributed to a larger fold increase in degradation potency, surpassing that of the activated esters. - 88 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) Since DHC-562 progressively forms active degrader (DHC-286) over the course of 24 hours, it was sought to determine whether the DHC-562 DC50would continue to decrease at extended time points, as previously observed for DHC-287. GSPT1HiBiTdegradation of DHC- 286 and DHC-562, was monitored at 24, 48, and 72 hours (FIGs.10F-10G and FIG.17). The 24-hour time point was consistent with previous findings, with DHC-562 (DC50 = 15 nM) exhibiting slightly weaker potency than DHC-286 (DC50= 8.8 nM). As expected, the potency of the prodegrader DHC-562 increased from 24 to 48 hours (DC50 = 7.8 nM), whereas DHC- 286 remained unchanged (DC50= 6.9 nM), rendering the two compounds equipotent. However, beyond 48 hours, DHC-562 did not show further improvement, as the DC50 values for DHC-562 (DC50= 7.1 nM) and DHC-286 (DC50= 8.7 nM) remained the same at 72 hours (FIG.10G and FIG 17). As GSPT1 is an essential protein whose degradation induces cell death, it was hypothesized that DHC-286 and DHC-562 would exhibit similar half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) values. Indeed, cell viability measurements at 2, 3, 4 days post- treatment demonstrated equipotent cytotoxicity with DHC-286 and DHC-562 (FIG.18). These results highlight the utility of the prodegrader approach, demonstrating its ability to achieve degradation and cytotoxicity comparable to the parent glutarimide-containing IMiD. Thalidomide analogs are known to undergo rapid racemization at the stereocenter linking the glutarimide to the phthalimide or isoindolone core. The more potent (S)- enantiomer has been associated with teratogenic effects and enhanced CRBN binding. DHC- 286 was synthesized as a racemic mixture, whereas the prodegrader scaffolds were prepared from an enantiomerically pure precursor, potentially yielding the single (S)-enantiomer of DHC-562. To investigate the extent to which this stereochemistry was retained during prodegrader synthesis, Supercritical Fluid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (SFC / MS) was performed to determine the enantiomeric excess (%ee) of DHC-286 and DHC-562. As expected, DHC-286 exhibited a 50 / 50 mixture of both enantiomers. On the other hand, DHC- 562 showed a 96% ee for the (S)-enantiomer. This suggests that the pKa of the α-hydrogen in the open, prodegrader form is not acidic enough to be significantly epimerized during the synthesis of DHC-562, despite exposure to strong acids and bases. To investigate whether an enantiopure glutarimide starting material for DHC-286 would also tolerate these conditions, synthesis of its (S)-enantiomer, DHC-725, was attempted under reaction conditions similar to those used with DHC-562 (FIG.33). SFC / MS revealed that DHC-725 had only a 14 %ee. Further examination of the reaction intermediates indicated that epimerization occurred - 89 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) during the initial isoindolone core formation step, likely due to the presence of the base, diisopropylethylamine. Despite similar reaction conditions, the uncyclized glutamine analog was more resistant to epimerization under the basic conditions, suggesting that prodegraders are less prone to racemization to the less active enantiomer in cellulo prior to cyclization. As a result, preferential formation of the (S)-DHC-286 may occur upon cyclization within cells. To evaluate the impact of stereochemistry on degrader and prodegrader efficacy, the (S)-enantiomer of DHC-286 (DHC-781, 94% ee) and the racemic analog of DHC-562 were synthesized (DHC-800, FIG.34). The (S)-enantiomers and their corresponding racemates were then tested for their GSPT1HiBiTdegradation at 4, 24, and 48 hours (FIG.19). At the 4 hour timepoint, both the (S)-enantiomers – DHC-781 and DHC-562 – demonstrated only slightly greater potency than their racemic counterparts. By 24 hours, the differential narrowed further, with the (S)-enantiomers DHC-781 (DC50 = 3.1 nM) and DHC-562 (DC50 = 7.8 nM) displaying marginally improved potency compared to DHC-286 (DC50= 3.8 nM) and DHC-800 (DC50 = 11.5 nM), respectively. After 48 hours, all compounds demonstrated comparable potencies, with DC50 values in the 3-6 nM range. These results indicate that over time, the differences in activity between the (S)-enantiomer and their racemic counterparts diminishes. Notably, the similar shift in potency between the (S)-enantiomers and racemic compounds at the earlier timepoints for both degraders and prodegraders suggests that the enantiopure prodegraders preferentially cyclize to yield the (S)-enantiomer. Example 5: Application of prodegraders to other degraders Next, efforts were made to demonstrate that the prodegrader strategy could be applied to alternative cereblon binding scaffolds targeting unique POIs.5-hydroxy thalidomide (5- HT) is a known metabolite of thalidomide that contains a phthalimide scaffold and has been shown to degrade SALL4. The methyl ester prodegrader of 5-HT, DHC-749 was synthesized (FIG.35) and SALL4NLucdegradation was monitored in a SALL4-NanoLuc-expressing H1299 cell line at 24- and 48- hours posttreatment. Similarly to the GSPT1 prodegraders, the prodegrader DHC-749 showed improved potency over time, becoming equipotent (DC50= 95 nM) to the cyclized parent compound, 5-HT, (DC50 = 87 nM) after 48 hours (FIG.11A and FIG.20). Next, it was examined whether the prodegrader of yet another IMiD, lenalidomide, could confer equipotent degradation as its glutarimide counterpart. Lenalidomide is a known degrader of CK1α, so both it and its methyl ester prodegrader, DHC-608, were tested for target degradation in CK1α-NanoLuc-expressing K562 cells after 24- and 48- hours. After 48 - 90 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) hours, DHC-608 (DC50 = 73 nM) displayed nearly equipotent degradation to lenalidomide (DC50= 50 nM) (FIG.21), mirroring the trends observed for the SALL4 and GSPT1- targeting molecules. Having established prodegrader efficacy for IMiDs, their application to PROTACs was next explored. The potent BTK-degrading PROTAC, SJF-620, was selected to modify with the methyl ester prodegrader moiety, yielding DHC-753 (FIG.11B and FIG.37). BTK- dependent TMD8 cells were treated with SJF-620 and DHC-753 for 24 hours, after which BTK degradation was quantified through immunoblotting (FIG.11C). DHC-753 was able to induce BTK degradation, albeit at higher concentrations than the parent degrader SJF-620. BTK degradation by SJF-620 and DHC-753 was also tested in NAMALWA cells. A similar differential between the PROTAC SJF-620 and prodegrader DHC-753 was observed at 24 and 48 hours (FIG.22). To more accurately compare the cyclization and potency of the two compounds, determination of their ability to induce cell death in the BTK-dependent TMD8 cells was next sought. Following treatment with the BTK degrader SJF-620 and prodegrader DHC-753 for 72 hours, a 3-fold decrease in potency from DHC-753 (IC50 = 2.3 µM) to SJF- 620 (IC50 = 760 nM) was observed (FIG.11D). Without wishing to be bound by any theory, it was hypothesized that the discrepancy in potency is due to the distinct physicochemical properties of the larger, beyond the Rule of 5, PROTACs, as factors such as permeability and stability may be limiting their ability to capitalize on the gradual cyclization rate. Furthermore, in vitro incubation of PROTAC DHC-753 revealed a similar cyclization rate as the IMiD methyl ester prodegrader DHC-562, although the extent of conversion to the cyclized product was slightly lower after 24 hours (31% vs.42%, respectively, FIG.23). This modest discrepancy was attributed to the potential for intramolecular interactions or hydrophobic collapse within the larger PROTAC molecule, which may hinder its cyclization efficiency. To determine whether the difference in potency was not due to an effect of testing in an endogenous system, the GSPT1 degrader DHC-286 and prodegrader DHC-562 were tested in TMD8 cells to evaluate if the prodegrader would retain comparable potency to the degrader, as previously observed with exogenous GSPT1HiBiTdegradation. Following treatment of TMD8 cells with DHC-286 and DHC-562 for 72 hours, the observed IC50values confirmed that the two compounds were equipotent (FIG.24). This further suggests that the differential in PROTAC potency is due to the compounds physiochemical properties rather than the presence of the prodegrader moiety. Overall, these results demonstrate that prodegraders can be broadly applied to distinct CRBN targeting modalities such as IMiDs and PROTACs. - 91 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) Glutarimides are almost exclusively employed across the diverse array of CRBN- recruiting ligands; however, recent studies have demonstrated that aspartimides are also capable of binding to CRBN and may be applicable in degrader technologies. Thus, it was sought to determine whether the prodegrader approach could be extended to aspartimide- based CRBN ligands. To this end, prodegrader DHC-788 (FIG.38) was synthesized, incorporating a methyl ester asparagine analog to compare its cyclization kinetics to that of a methyl ester glutamine analog. Cyclization to the 5-membered aspartimide ring was found to be significantly faster, reaching 72% after 2 hours compared to only 6% for the glutarimide analog DHC-562 (FIG.25). These results demonstrate that the prodegrader approach is applicable to asparagine analogs and that aspartimide formation is kinetically more favorable than glutarimide formation. Although aspartimides can bind CRBN, their incorporation in PROTACs has been less successful, as direct replacement of the glutarimide with an aspartimide often results in greatly diminished degradation efficacy. To determine if this limitation extends to the GSPT1 degraders, an aspartimide-containing analog of DHC-286 (DHC-791) was synthesized and its corresponding methyl ester prodegrader counterpart (DHC-796) As anticipated, neither compound induced GSPT1HiBiTdegradation at 4, 24 or 48 hours (FIG.26). These results further demonstrate that direct substitution of the glutarimide with an aspartimide abrogates degradation and illustrates the sensitivity of IMiDs to subtle structural modifications. Example 6: Prodegraders enable conjugation of CRBN-recruiting degraders While prodegraders are comparable to glutarimides for standalone dosing, it was hypothesized that the prodegrader scaffold provides linker attachment points, which are absent in glutarimides, that can expand degrader-conjugate technologies. DACs are an emerging therapeutic modality that harnesses antibodies to deliver degraders selectively to tumor cells, analogous to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). In DACs, the degrader payloads are conjugated to an antibody through a variety of linkers, and the most common linker is enzymatically cleaved by lysosomal proteases, such as cathepsin B, upon internalization in target cells. Ideally, for CRBN-recruiting degraders, conjugation would occur via the glutarimide to prevent premature activity, since N- modification of glutarimides abrogates CRBN binding, and ultimately releases an unmodified degrader. However, the glutarimide is not amenable to facile conjugation through popular techniques such as carbamate or benzyl attachments (FIG.12A), as evidenced by the lack of - 92 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) DACs using this strategy in the literature and patents. Consequently, CRBN-recruiting degraders require modifications to introduce conjugation handles, which can require extensive SAR campaigns to discover an analog that does not suffer from decreased potency and / or selectivity. This is exemplified by the recently disclosed DAC, ORUM-5029 (WO2021198965), which added a PEG-amine (FIG.12B) to the known IMiD GSPT1 degrader, CC-885, for conjugation. Similarly, the BRD4 degrading PROTAC, ARV-826, was modified by replacing an oxygen in the PEG linker with an amine to provide the conjugation handle (WO2019140003A1). It was hypothesized that the amide of the prodegrader could be used as a conjugation site via acyl carbamate formation (FIG.12C). Upon cleavage of the stimuli-responsive group, the prodegrader would undergo intramolecular cyclization to generate the active degrader. Since the glutarimide is a core feature of CRBN-based degraders, functionalization of the uncyclized glutarimide is (1) broadly applicable and (2) ensures no CRBN binding prior to payload release. To access this approach, DHC-585 was synthesized, where the amide of the uncyclized glutamine is conjugated to a nitrobenzyl photolabile-protecting group via a carbamate (FIG.41). A similar reaction with the cyclized glutarimide, DHC-286, yielded no product, confirming that amides are more amenable to carbamate formation than glutarimides. DHC-585 was then UV-irradiated, and the release of DHC-287 was monitored by LCMS. A time-dependent increase in abundance of DHC-287 was observed from 0.5 to 4 minutes (FIG.12D and FIG.27), demonstrating that prodegrader scaffolds can be masked with stimulus-sensitive groups and subsequently released upon activation. Encouraged by these results, the utility of prodegraders to DACs was investigated by conjugating a DAC linker to prodegrader DHC-282 and enzymatically cleaving the linker. Valine-citrulline-p- aminobenzylcarbamate (Val-Cit-PABC) is a commonly used amino acid-based linker in ADCs and DACs that contains the recognition elements (Val-Cit) for cathepsin B. Once endocytosed and localized to the lysosome, the amide bond between Cit-PABC is cleaved by cathepsin B to yield the primary aniline that rapidly initiates a 1,6 benzyl elimination to release from the carbamate, which spontaneously decomposes and liberates the drug payload (FIG.12E). DHC-683 was synthesized by conjugating the amide of DHC-282 to the Val-Cit-PAB linker (FIG.42). When DHC-683 (10 µM) was incubated with purified cathepsin B (250 nM) in ammonium acetate buffer, LCMS analysis revealed rapid cleavage of the linker, with 75% of DHC-282 released in just one hour (FIG.12F and FIG.28). Importantly, in the absence of cathepsin B, < 1% of DHC-282 was released. These results - 93 - 56067759.3 Attorney Docket No.047162-7520WO1(02652) demonstrate that uncyclized glutarimide analogs of CRBN-based degraders can be successfully incorporated onto linkers for DAC development.
