KT-474 (KYM-001; PROTAC IRAK4 degrader-7) hydrochloride is an orally active PROTAC IRAK4 degrader with anti-tumor effects. KT-474 inhibits the cell cycle and induces apoptosis. KT-474 induces tumor regression in a xenograft model of MYD88-mutated ABC DLBCL [1] [2] [3]. (Pink: IRAK4 ligand; Blue: Cereblon ligand; Black: linker).
