Abstract
The epigenetic target CREB (cyclic-AMP responsive element binding protein) binding protein (CBP) and its homologue p300 were promising therapeutic targets for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and evaluation of a class of CBP/p300 PROTAC degraders based on our previously reported highly potent and selective CBP/p300 inhibitor 5. Among the compounds synthesized, 11c (XYD129) demonstrated high potency and formed a ternary complex between CBP/p300 and CRBN (AlphaScreen). The compound effectively degraded CBP/p300 proteins and exhibited greater inhibition of growth in acute leukemia cell lines compared to its parent compound 5. Furthermore, 11c demonstrated significant inhibition of tumor growth in a MOLM-16 xenograft model (TGI = 60%) at tolerated dose schedules. Our findings suggest that 11c is a promising lead compound for the treatment of AML.
