Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Many patients with multiple myeloma (MM) initially respond to treatment with modern combination regimens including immunomodulatory agents (lenalidomide and pomalidomide) and proteasome inhibitors. However, some patients lack an initial response to therapy (i.e., are refractory), and although the mean survival of MM patients has more than doubled in recent years, most patients will eventually relapse. To address this need, we explored the potential of novel cereblon E3 ligase modulators (CELMoDs) for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We found that optimization beyond potency of degradation, including degradation efficiency and kinetics, could provide efficacy in a lenalidomide-resistant setting. Guided by both phenotypic and protein degradation data, we describe a series of CELMoDs for the treatment of RRMM, culminating in the discovery of CC-92480, a novel protein degrader and the first CELMoD to enter clinical development that was specifically designed for efficient and rapid protein degradation kinetics.
