SD-36

SD-36 is a potent and efficacious PROTAC STAT3 degrader (Kd=~50 nM), and demonstrates high selectivity over other STAT members. SD-36 also effectively degrades mutated STAT3 proteins in cells and suppresses the transcriptional activity of STAT3 (IC50=10 nM). SD-36 exerts robust anti-tumor activity, and achieves complete and long-lasting tumor regression in mouse tumor models. SD-36 is composed of the STAT3 inhibitor SI-109, a linker, and an analog of CRBN ligand Lenalidomide for E3 ubiquitin ligase[1].

SD-36 inhibits the growth of a subset of acute myeloid leukemia and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma cell lines by inducing cell-cycle arrest and/or apoptosis[1].SD-36 (0.005-5 μM; 4 days) demonstrates potent activity (IC50<2 μM) in MOLM-16, DEL, Karpas-299, KI-JK, SU-DHL-I, SUP-M2 cell lines[1].SD-36 (1 μM; 5 hours) completely depletes both monomeric and dimeric STAT3 protein in MOLM-16 cells[1].

SD-36 (25-100 mg/kg; i.v.; weekly dosing for 4 weeks) achieves complete and long-lasting tumor regression in mice[1].SD-36 effectively inhibits tumor growth at 25 and 50 mg/kg administered on day 1, 3, and 5 per week and achieved complete tumor regression at 100 mg/kg with the same schedule in the SU-DHL-1 xenograft model[1].SD-36 at 50 mg/kg 3 times per week completely inhibits tumor growth in the SUP-M2 tumor model[1]. Animal Model: SCID female mice (MOLM-16 xenograft model)[1]
