Definitions
- NSD2-TARGETED CHEMICAL DEGRADERS AND COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing 2 (NSD2)-targeted protein degradation ligands and pharmaceutical compositions thereof and their utility as anti-cancer agents.
- NSD2 nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing 2
- the present invention is directed to nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing 2 (NSD2)-targeted protein degradation ligands and pharmaceutical compositions thereof and their utility as anti-cancer agents.
- NSD2 Nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing 2
- MMSET multiple myeloma SET domain
- WHSC1 Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 1
- NSD2 is also required for efficient non-homologous end-joining and homologous recombination, two canonical DNA repair pathways (Shah, M. Y. et al. Oncogene, 35, 5905-5915, 2016; Zhang, J. et al., Cancer Discov., 9, 1306-1323).
- NSD2 has multiple protein-protein interaction (PPI) modules with known or potential chromatin reading functions, including five PHD (plant homeodomain) and two PWWP (proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline) domains (Bennet, R. L. et al.
- NSD2 The isolated N-terminal PWWP domain of NSD2 (NSD2-PWWP1) binds H3K36 di- and trimethylated nucleosomes; this interaction presumably is mediated by a conserved aromatic cage and stabilizes NSD2 at chromatin (Sankaran, S. M. et al., J. Biol. Chem.291, 8465-8474, 2016). Mutation of the aromatic cage residues abrogates NSD2-PWWP1 binding to nucleosomal H3K36me2, but has only modest effect on global H3K36 methylation level in cells. However, H3K36 methylation has been shown to be abolished upon mutation of the second PHD domain (PHD2)(Huang, Z. et al.
- NSD2 is aberrantly expressed, amplified or somatically mutated in multiple types of cancer, leading to increased methylation of lysine 36 of histone 3 (H3K36) (Kuo, A. J., et al. Mol. Cell, 44, 609-620, 2011) and subsequent proliferation.
- H3K36 histone 3
- high expression of the NSD2 protein has been demonstrated in different human cancer types, including bladder, brain, gastrointestinal, lung, liver, ovary, skin, uterus, breast, prostate and glioblastoma.
- NSD2 is among the most frequently mutated genes in pediatric cancer genomes.
- the NSD2 SET domain variant, E1099K was identified in both acute lymphoblastic leukemia tumors and cell lines with increased H3K36me2 that lack the t (4; 14) translocation.
- NSD2 is also among the most frequently mutated genes found in mantle cell lymphoma tumors, where both E1099K and T1150A variants are observed.
- the E1099K variant has also been reported in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), lung and stomach cancers.
- CLL chronic lymphocytic leukemia
- NSD2 upregulation is associated with aggressive tumor behavior and poor prognosis.
- Due to growing occurrence of drug resistance to current traditional anticancer drugs employed in treating such cancer there has been an ongoing need for improving such anti-cancer therapies and/or developing new treatment options, which can act via different cellular mechanisms to combat cancers.
- One of such new treatment options involves the NSD2 enzyme, which represents a promising target for anti-cancer therapy.
- SUMMARY Provided herein are compounds, which can bind to the NSD2 enzyme in the non-active site and degrade the enzyme.

- NSD2 nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing 2
- H3K36 histone 3
- NSD2 is a potent oncoprotein and has been implicated as a therapeutic target for a variety of cancers.
- Recent research efforts suggest that in addition to its catalytic SET domain, NSD2 contains several PWWP and PHD methyl-lysine (Kme) reader domains, which are thought to be critical in propagating H3K36me2 and recruiting NSD2 to its oncogenic genes.
