AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing treatments for cancer, particularly p53 mutant cancer cells, are inadequate in inducing sufficient gene expression and apoptosis, limiting their therapeutic efficacy.

Method used

Development of bifunctional molecules that link a targeting moiety to a BET-binding moiety through a chemical linker, forming a ternary complex to enhance gene expression and induce apoptosis in cancer cells.

Benefits of technology

The bifunctional molecules demonstrate a synergistic increase in gene expression and apoptosis, effectively changing the fate of cancer cells from cell cycle inhibition to apoptosis, providing a potent therapeutic modality for cancer treatment.

Abstract

Provided herein are heterobifunctional compounds that bind a targeting moiety (e.g., a transcription factor) and a BET protein. The compounds selectively inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of cells. Also provided are compounds that are synthetic intermediates of the bifunctional compounds. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the disclosed compounds and methods of treating a disease or condition by administering a compound or composition described herein.
