LD5095 demonstrates potent and selective RIPK1 degradation across cell lines, with rapid kinetics and sustained degradation over 72h post-washout, and exhibited favorable pharmacokinetics, including metabolic stability and an extended half-life.
Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) is a critical regulator of programmed cell death and is implicated in various pathological conditions, particularly in mediating tumor resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICBs). In this study, we have pioneered the development of a novel cereblon (CRBN)-recruiting RIPK1 degrader, LD5095 , through systematic optimization of linker and CRBN ligand portion. LD5095 demonstrates potent and selective RIPK1 degradation across cell lines, with rapid kinetics and sustained degradation over 72h post-washout. Functionally, RIPK1 degradation by LD5095 significantly sensitized Jurkat cells to TNFα-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, LD5095 exhibited favorable pharmacokinetics, including metabolic stability and an extended half-life. Strikingly, in vivo, a single dose of LD5095 achieved durable RIPK1 degradation in xenograft tumors over 6 days. These findings underscore the potential of LD5095 as a chemical probe for studying RIPK1 biology and a promising candidate for cancer treatment.
Activating NRAS mutations occur in approximately 20% of melanomas but remain largely undruggable due to the lack of effective targeted therapies. We previously identified casein kinase 1δ (CK1δ) as a critical upstream regulator that stabilizes oncogenic NRAS mutants. However, no selective CK1δ inhibitors have advance...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are first-line therapy for cervical cancer (CC), yet their efficacy is limited to a subset of patients owing to low tumor immunogenicity. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that CC patients exhibiting robust immune responses following radiotherapy (RT) showed upregulation of necropt...

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity worldwide, with fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) playing a pivotal role in its pathogenesis and progression. Although FGFR1-targeted therapies, particularly tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), have shown clinical efficacy, their...

The serine/threonine kinase PAK1 is increasingly recognized as a pivotal regulator of tumor progression and immune evasion in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, the development of PAK1 inhibitors with both high potency and favorable drug-like properties remains challenging. Herein, we report the design, syn...
