, (2021/08/13)
The present disclosure relates to compounds and methods for modulating the expression of dmpk, and treating diseases and conditions in which dmpk plays an active role. The compound can be a transcription modulator molecule having a first terminus, a second terminus, and oligomeric backbone, wherein: a) the first terminus comprises a DNA-binding moiety capable of noncovalently binding to a nucleotide repeat sequence CAG or CTG; b) the second terminus comprises a protein-binding moiety binding to a regulatory molecule that modulates an expression of a gene comprising the nucleotide repeat sequence CAG or CTG; and c) the oligomeric backbone comprising a linker between the first terminus and the second terminus.

As one of the most aggressive and lethal human malignancies with extremely poor prognosis, there is an urgent demand of more effective therapy for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. Reported here is a new, effective therapeutic strategy and the design of small-molecule inhibitors that simultaneously target bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) and histone deacetylase (HDAC), potentially serving as promising therapeutic agents for pancreatic cancer. A highly potent dual inhibitor (13 a) is identified to possess excellent and balanced activities against BRD4 BD1 (IC50=11 nm) and HDAC1 (IC50=21 nm). Notably, this compound shows higher in vitro and in vivo antitumor potency than the BET inhibitor (+)-JQ1 and the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat, either alone or and in combination, highlighting the advantages of BET/HDAC dual inhibitors for more effective treatment of pancreatic cancer.
