Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) plays a crucial role in the epigenetic regulation of gene transcription and some BRD4 inhibitors have been advanced to clinical trials. Nevertheless, the clinical application of BRD4 inhibitors could be limited by drug resistance. As an alternative strategy, the emerging Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) technology has the potential to overcome the drug resistance of traditional small-molecule drugs. Based on PROTACs approaches, several BRD4 degraders were developed and have been proved to degrade BRD4 protein and inhibit tumor growth. Herein, we present the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of pyrrolopyridone derivative-based BRD4 degraders. Four synthesized compounds displayed comparative potence against BRD4 BD1 with IC50 at low nanomolar concentrations. Anti-proliferative activity of 32a against BxPC3 cell line (IC50 = 0.165 μM) was improved by about 7-fold as compared to the BRD4 inhibitor ABBV-075. Furthermore, degrader 32a potently induced the degradation of BRD4 and inhibited the expression of c-Myc in BxPC3 cell line in a time-dependent manner. The exploration of intracellular antitumor mechanism showed 32a induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis effectively. All the results demonstrated that compound 32a could be considered as a potential BRD4 degrader for further investigation.

BRD4 has emerged as an attractive target for anticancer therapy. However, BRD4 inhibitors treatment leads to BRD4 protein accumulation, together with the reversible nature of inhibitors binding to BRD4, which may limit the efficacy of BRD4 inhibitors. To address these problems, a protein degradation strategy based on the proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology has been developed to target BRD4 recently. Herein, we present our design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a new class of PROTAC BRD4 degraders, which were based on a potent dihydroquinazolinone-based BRD4 inhibitor compound 6 and lenalidomide/pomalidomide as ligand for E3 ligase cereblon. Gratifyingly, several compounds showed excellent inhibitory activity against BRD4, and high anti-proliferative potency against human monocyte lymphoma cell line THP-1. Especially, compound 21 (BRD4 BD1, IC50 = 41.8 nM) achieved a submicromolar IC50 value of 0.81 μM in inhibiting the growth of THP-1 cell line, and was 4 times more potent than compound 6. Moreover, the mechanism study established that 21 could effectively induce the degradation of BRD4 protein and suppression of c-Myc. All of these results suggested that 21 was an efficacious BRD4 degrader for further investigation.

A series of (E)-3-(4-((2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)oxy)-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-cyanoacrylamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as new estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) degraders based on the proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) concept. One of the representative compounds 6c is capable of specifically degrading ERRα protein by >80% at a relatively low concentration of 30 nM, becoming one of the most potent and selective ERRα degraders to date. Compound 6c could be utilized as a new powerful research tool for further biological investigation of ERRα.
