FIELD OF THE INVENTION WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 id="p-4"
[0004]The description provides bifunctional compounds comprising a target protein binding moiety and an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety, and associated methods of use. The bifunctional compounds are useful as modulators of targeted ubiquitination, especially with respect to Rapidly Accelerated Fibrosarcoma (RAF) proteins, which are degraded and/or otherwise inhibited by bifunctional compounds according to the present disclosure.
BACKGROUND [0005]Most small molecule drugs bind enzymes or receptors in tight and well-defined pockets. On the other hand, protein-protein interactions are notoriously difficult to target using small molecules due to their large contact surfaces and the shallow grooves or flat interfaces involved. E3 ubiquitin ligases (of which hundreds are known in humans) confer substrate specificity for ubiquitination, and therefore, are more attractive therapeutic targets than general proteasome inhibitors due to their specificity for certain protein substrates. The development of ligands of E3 ligases has proven challenging, in part due to the fact that they must disrupt protein-protein interactions. However, recent developments have provided specific ligands which bind to these ligases. For example, since the discovery of nutlins, the first small molecule E3 ligase inhibitors, additional compounds have been reported that target E3 ligases but the field remains underdeveloped. For example, since the discovery of Nutlins, the first small molecule E3 ligase mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) inhibitors, additional compounds have been reported that target MDM2 (i.e., human double minute 2 or HDM2) E3 ligases (J. Di, et al. Current Cancer Drug Targets (2011), 11(8), 987-994). [0006]Tumor suppressor gene p53 plays an important role in cell growth arrest and apoptosis in response to DNA damage or stress (A. Vazquez, et al. Nat. Rev. Drug. Dis. (2008), 7, 979-982), and inactivation of p53 has been suggested as one of the major pathway for tumor cell survival (A. J. Levine, et al. Nature (2000), 408, 307-310). In cancer patients, about 50% were found with p53 mutation (M. Hollstein, et al. Science (1991), 233, 49-53), while patients with wild type p53 were often found p53 down regulation by MDM2 through the protein-protein interaction of p53 and MDM2 (P. Chene, et al. Nat. Rev. Cancer (2003), 3, 102-109). Under normal cell condition without oncogenic stress signal, MDM2 keeps p53 at low concentration. In response to DNA damage or cellular stress, p53 level increases, and that also causes increase in MDM2 due to the feedback loop from p53/MDM2 auto regulatory system. In other words, p WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 regulates MDM2 at the transcription level, and MDM2 regulates p53 at its activity level (A. J. Levine, et al. Genes Dev. (1993) 7, 1126-1132). [0007]Several mechanisms can explain p53 down regulation by MDM2. First, MDM2 binds to N-terminal domain of p53 and blocks expression of p53-responsive genes (J. Momand, et al. Cell (1992), 69, 1237-1245). Second, MDM2 shuttles p53 from nucleus to cytoplasm to facilitate proteolytic degradation (J. Roth, et al. EMBO J. (1998), 17, 554-564). Lastly, MDM2 carries intrinsic E3 ligase activity of conjugating ubiquitin to p53 for degradation through ubiquitin- dependent 26s proteasome system (UPS) (Y. Haupt, et al. Nature (1997) 387, 296-299). As such, because MDM2 functions as E3 ligase, recruiting MDM2 to a disease causing protein and effectuating its ubiquitination and degradation is an approach of high interest for drug discovery. [0008]One E3 ligase with exciting therapeutic potential is the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor, the substrate recognition subunit of the E3 ligase complex VCB, which also consists of elongins B and C, Cul2 and Rbxl. The primary substrate of VHL is Hypoxia Inducible Factor lot (HIF-la), a transcription factor that upregulates genes such as the pro- angiogenic growth factor VEGF and the red blood cell inducing cytokine erythropoietin in response to low oxygen levels. The first small molecule ligands of Von Hippel Lindau (VHL) to the substrate recognition subunit of the E3 ligase were generated, and crystal structures were obtained confirming that the compound mimics the binding mode of the transcription factor HIF- la, the major substrate of VHL. [0009]Cereblon is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CRBN gene. CRBN orthologs are highly conserved from plants to humans, which underscores its physiological importance. Cereblon forms an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex with damaged DNA binding protein 1 (DDB1), Cullin-4A (CULAA), and regulator of cullins 1 (ROC1). This complex ubiquitinates a number of other proteins. Through a mechanism which has not been completely elucidated, cereblon ubquitination of target proteins results in increased levels of fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) and fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10). FGF8 in turn regulates a number of developmental processes, such as limb and auditory vesicle formation. The net result is that this ubiquitin ligase complex is important for limb outgrowth in embryos. In the absence of cereblon, DDB1 forms a complex with DDB2 that functions as a DNA damage-binding protein. [0010]Inhibitors of Apotosis Proteins (IAPs) are a protein family involved in suppressing apoptosis, i.e. cell death. The human IAP family includes 8 members, and numerous other WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 organisms contain ZAP homologs. IAPs contain an E3 ligase specific domain and baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domains that recognize substrates, and promote their ubiquitination. IAPs promote ubiquitination and can directly bind and inhibit caspases. Caspases are proteases (e.g. caspase-3, caspase-7 and caspace-9) that implement apoptosis. As such, through the binding of caspases, IAPs inhibit cell death. However, pro-apoptotic stimuli can result in the release of mitochondrial proteins DIABLO (also known as second mitrochondria-derived activator of caspases or SMAC) and HTRA2 (also known as Omi). Binding of DIABLO and HTRAappears to block IAP activity. [0011]SMAC interacts with essentially all known IAPs including XIAP, c-IAPl, C-IAP2, NIL-LAP, Bruce, and survivin. The first four amino acids (AVPI) of mature SMAC bind to a portion of IAPs, which is believed to be essential for blocking the anti-apoptotic effects of IAPs. [0012]Bifunctional compounds such as those that are described in U.S. Patent Application Publications 2015-0291562 and 2014-0356322 (incorporated herein by reference), function to recruit endogenous proteins to an E3 ubiquiuin ligase for degradation. In particular, the publications describe bifunctional or proteolysis targeting chimeric (PROTAC) compounds, which find utility as modulators of targeted ubiquitination of a variety of polypeptides and other proteins, which are then degraded and/or otherwise inhibited by the bifunctional compounds. [0013]An ongoing need exists in the art for effective treatments for disease associated with overexpression or aggregation of Rapidly Accelerated Fibrosarcoma (RAF), or the overactivation of RAF (such as constitutively active RAF). For example, current BRaf inhibitors (such as, vemurafenib and dabrafenib) may target V600 mutant BRaf. Thus, a need exists for diseases or disorders (such as, melanoma, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, and/or colorectal cancers) that have different BRaf mutations that are insensitive to currently marketed agents. Furthermore, resistance mutations can emerge in response to BRaf/MEK inhibitor therapy. For example, the p61 splice variant can emerge in melanoma patients treated with BRaf/MEK inhibitor therapy, which leaves these patients with no clinical options. Currently marketed agents also bind to and cause paradoxical activation of wild-type BRaf, which results in clinical complications. In addition, the family of hypoactive Class III BRaf mutants that signal through heterodimerization with CRaf, constitute 40% of BRaf mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and also appear sporadically across other cancers, cannot be targeted with any currently approved or clinical-stage BRaf inhibitors. Class I BRAF mutants (V600E, V600K, WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 V600D) have high kinase activity, are Ras and dimerization independent, and are sensitive to vemuragenib. Class II BRAF mutants has high to intermediate kinase activity, are Ras- independent and dimerization dependent, and are insensitive to vemurafenib. Class III BRAF mutatns have lot to no kinase activity, are Ras and dimerization dependent, and are insensitive to vemurafenib. [0014]Thus, non-specific effects and the inability to target and modulate RAF, remain an obstacle to the development of effective treatments. As such, small-molecule therapeutic agents that effectively targets RAF (e.g., effectively inhibiting and/or degrading mutant forms of BRaf, while sparing wild-type BRaf) and that leverage or potentiate VHL’s, cereblon ’s, MDM2’s, and IAPs ’ substrate specificity would be very useful.
SUMMARY [0015]The present disclosure describes bifunctional compounds which function to recruit endogenous proteins to an E3 ubiquitin ligase for degradation, and methods of using the same. In particular, the present disclosure provides bifunctional or proteolysis targeting chimeric (PROTAC) compounds, which find utility as modulators of targeted ubiquitination of a variety of polypeptides and other proteins, which are then degraded and/or otherwise inhibited by the bifunctional compounds as described herein. An advantage of the compounds provided herein is that a broad range of pharmacological activities is possible, consistent with the degradation/inhibition of targeted polypeptides from virtually any protein class or family. In addition, the description provides methods of using an effective amount of the compounds as described herein for the treatment or amelioration of a disease condition, such as cancer (e.g., renal cell carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, thyroid cancer, pilocytic astrocytoma, prostate cancer, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and melanoma), cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome, neurofibromatosis type 1, Costello syndrome, Noonan Syndrome, LEOPARD (Lentigo, Electrocardiographic abnormalities, Ocular hypertelorism, Pulmonary stenosis, Abnormal genitalia, Retarded growth, Deafness) syndrome. [0016]As such, in one aspect the disclosure provides bifunctional or PROTAC compounds, which comprise an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (i.e., a ligand for an E3 ubquitin ligase or "ULM" group), and a moiety that binds a target protein (i.e., a protein/polypeptide targeting ligand or "PTM" group) such that the target protein/polypeptide is placed in proximity to the WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of that protein. In a preferred embodiment, the ULM (ubiquitination ligase modulator) can be Von Hippel-Lindau E3 ubiquitin ligase (VHL) binding moiety (VLM), or a cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (CLM), or a mouse double miniute 2 homolog (MDM2) E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (MEM), or an IAP Eubiquitin ligase binding moiety (i.e., a "ILM"). For example, the structure of the bifunctional compound can be depicted as: PTM ----- ULM id="p-17"
[0017]The respective positions of the PTM and ULM moieties (e.g., VLM, CLM, MLM or ILM) as well as their number as illustrated herein is provided by way of example only and is not intended to limit the compounds in any way.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0051]The following is a detailed description provided to aid those skilled in the art in practicing the present disclosure. Those of ordinary skill in the art may make modifications and variations in the embodiments described herein without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure. All publications, patent applications, patents, figures and other references mentioned herein are expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety. [0052]Presently described are compositions and methods that relate to the surprising and unexpected discovery that an E3 ubiquitin ligase protein (e.g., inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (IAP), a Von Hippel-Lindau E3 ubiquitin ligase (VHL), a cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase, or a mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) E3 ubiquitin ligase) ubiquitinates a target protein once it and the target protein are placed in proximity by a bifunctional or chimeric construct that binds the E3 ubiquitin ligase protein and the target protein. Accordingly the present disclosure provides such compounds and compositions comprising an E3 ubiquintin ligase binding moiety ("ULM") coupled to a protein target binding moiety ("PTM"), which result in the ubiquitination of a chosen target protein, which leads to degradation of the target protein by the proteasome (see Figure 1). The present disclosure also provides a library of compositions and the use thereof. [0053]In certain aspects, the present disclosure provides compounds which comprise a ligand, e.g., a small molecule ligand (i.e., having a molecular weight of below 2,000, 1,000, 500, or 200 Daltons), which is capable of binding to a ubiquitin ligase, such as IAP, VHL, MDM2, or cereblon. The compounds also comprise a moiety that is capable of binding to target protein, in WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 such a way that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and/or inhibition) of that protein. Small molecule can mean, in addition to the above, that the molecule is non-peptidyl, that is, it is not generally considered a peptide, e.g., comprises fewer than 4, 3, or 2 amino acids. In accordance with the present description, the PTM, ULM or PROTAC molecule can be a small molecule. [0054]Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. The terminology used in the description is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the disclosure. [0055]Where a range of values is provided, it is understood that each intervening value, to the tenth of the unit of the lower limit unless the context clearly dictates otherwise (such as in the case of a group containing a number of carbon atoms in which case each carbon atom number falling within the range is provided), between the upper and lower limit of that range and any other stated or intervening value in that stated range is encompassed within the disclosure. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may independently be included in the smaller ranges is also encompassed within the disclosure, subject to any specifically excluded limit in the stated range. Where the stated range includes one or both of the limits, ranges excluding either both of those included limits are also included in the disclosure. [0056]The following terms are used to describe the present disclosure. In instances where a term is not specifically defined herein, that term is given an art-recognized meaning by those of ordinary skill applying that term in context to its use in describing the present disclosure. [0057]The articles "a" and "an" as used herein and in the appended claims are used herein to refer to one or to more than one (i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. By way of example, "an element" means one element or more than one element. [0058]The phrase "and/or," as used herein in the specification and in the claims, should be understood to mean "either or both" of the elements so conjoined, i.e., elements that are conjunctively present in some cases and disjunctively present in other cases. Multiple elements listed with "and/or" should be construed in the same fashion, i.e., "one or more" of the elements so conjoined. Other elements may optionally be present other than the elements specifically identified by the "and/or" clause, whether related or unrelated to those elements specifically WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 identified. Thus, as a non-limiting example, a reference to "A and/or B", when used in conjunction with open-ended language such as "comprising" can refer, in one embodiment, to A only (optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to B only (optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to both A and B (optionally including other elements); etc. [0059]As used herein in the specification and in the claims, "or" should be understood to have the same meaning as "and/or" as defined above. For example, when separating items in a list, "or" or "and/or" shall be interpreted as being inclusive, i.e., the inclusion of at least one, but also including more than one, of a number or list of elements, and, optionally, additional unlisted items. Only terms clearly indicated to the contrary, such as "only one of ’ or "exactly one of," or, when used in the claims, "consisting of," will refer to the inclusion of exactly one element of a number or list of elements. In general, the term "or" as used herein shall only be interpreted as indicating exclusive alternatives (i.e., "one or the other but not both") when preceded by terms of exclusivity, such as "either," "one of," "only one of," or "exactly one of." [0060]In the claims, as well as in the specification above, all transitional phrases such as "comprising," "including," "carrying," "having," "containing," "involving," "holding," "composed of," and the like are to be understood to be open-ended, i.e., to mean including but not limited to. Only the transitional phrases "consisting of and "consisting essentially of shall be closed or semi-closed transitional phrases, respectively, as set forth in the United States Patent Office Manual of Patent Examining Procedures, Section 2111.03. [0061]As used herein in the specification and in the claims, the phrase "at least one," in reference to a list of one or more elements, should be understood to mean at least one element selected from anyone or more of the elements in the list of elements, but not necessarily including at least one of each and every element specifically listed within the list of elements and not excluding any combinations of elements in the list of elements. This definition also allows that elements may optionally be present other than the elements specifically identified within the list of elements to which the phrase "at least one" refers, whether related or unrelated to those elements specifically identified. Thus, as a nonlimiting example, "at least one of A and B" (or, equivalently, "at least one of A or B," or, equivalently "at least one of A and/or B") can refer, in one embodiment, to at least one, optionally including more than one, A, with no B present (and optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to at least one, optionally WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 including more than one, B, with no A present (and optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to at least one, optionally including more than one, A, and at least one, optionally including more than one, B (and optionally including other elements); etc. [0062]It should also be understood that, in certain methods described herein that include more than one step or act, the order of the steps or acts of the method is not necessarily limited to the order in which the steps or acts of the method are recited unless the context indicates otherwise. [0063]The terms "co-administration" and "co-administering" or "combination therapy " refer to both concurrent administration (administration of two or more therapeutic agents at the same time) and time varied administration (administration of one or more therapeutic agents at a time different from that of the administration of an additional therapeutic agent or agents), as long as the therapeutic agents are present in the patient to some extent, preferably at effective amounts, at the same time. In certain preferred aspects, one or more of the present compounds described herein, are coadministered in combination with at least one additional bioactive agent, especially including an anticancer agent. In particularly preferred aspects, the co-administration of compounds results in synergistic activity and/or therapy, including anticancer activity. [0064]The term "compound ", as used herein, unless otherwise indicated, refers to any specific chemical compound disclosed herein and includes tautomers, regioisomers, geometric isomers, and where applicable, stereoisomers, including optical isomers (enantiomers) and other stereoisomers (diastereomers) thereof, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts and derivatives, including prodrug and/or deuterated forms thereof where applicable, in context. Deuterated small molecules contemplated are those in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms contained in the drug molecule have been replaced by deuterium. [0065]Within its use in context, the term compound generally refers to a single compound, but also may include other compounds such as stereoisomers, regioisomers and/or optical isomers (including racemic mixtures) as well as specific enantiomers or enantiomerically enriched mixtures of disclosed compounds. The term also refers, in context to prodrug forms of compounds which have been modified to facilitate the administration and delivery of compounds to a site of activity. It is noted that in describing the present compounds, numerous substituents and variables associated with same, among others, are described. It is understood by those of ordinary skill that molecules which are described herein are stable compounds as generally WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 described hereunder. When the bond is shown, both a double bond and single bond are represented or understood within the context of the compound shown and well-known rules for valence interactions. [0066]The term "ubiquitin ligase " refers to a family of proteins that facilitate the transfer of ubiquitin to a specific substrate protein, targeting the substrate protein for degradation. For example, IAP an E3 ubiquitin ligase protein that alone or in combination with an E2 ubiquitin- conjugating enzyme causes the attachment of ubiquitin to a lysine on a target protein, and subsequently targets the specific protein substrates for degradation by the proteasome. Thus, Eubiquitin ligase alone or in complex with an E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme is responsible for the transfer of ubiquitin to targeted proteins. In general, the ubiquitin ligase is involved in polyubiquitination such that a second ubiquitin is attached to the first; a third is attached to the second, and so forth. Polyubiquitination marks proteins for degradation by the proteasome. However, there are some ubiquitination events that are limited to mono-ubiquitination, in which only a single ubiquitin is added by the ubiquitin ligase to a substrate molecule. Mono- ubiquitinated proteins are not targeted to the proteasome for degradation, but may instead be altered in their cellular location or function, for example, via binding other proteins that have domains capable of binding ubiquitin. Further complicating matters, different lysines on ubiquitin can be targeted by an E3 to make chains. The most common lysine is Lys48 on the ubiquitin chain. This is the lysine used to make polyubiquitin, which is recognized by the proteasome. [0067]The term "patient " or "subject " is used throughout the specification to describe an animal, preferably a human or a domesticated animal, to whom treatment, including prophylactic treatment, with the compositions according to the present disclosure is provided. For treatment of those infections, conditions or disease states which are specific for a specific animal such as a human patient, the term patient refers to that specific animal, including a domesticated animal such as a dog or cat or a farm animal such as a horse, cow, sheep, etc. In general, in the present disclosure, the term patient refers to a human patient unless otherwise stated or implied from the context of the use of the term. [0068]The term "effective " is used to describe an amount of a compound, composition or component which, when used within the context of its intended use, effects an intended result.
WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 The term effective subsumes all other effective amount or effective concentration terms, which are otherwise described or used in the present application. [0069] Compounds and Compositions [0070]In one aspect, the description provides compounds comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety ("ULM") that is an IAP E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (an "ILM"), a cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety (a "CLM"), a Von Hippel-Lindae E3 ubiquitin ligase (VHL) binding moiety (VLM), and/or a mouse double minute 2 homologue (MDM2) Eubiquitin ligase binding moiety (MEM). In an exemplary embodiment, the ULM is coupled to a target protein binding moiety (PTM) via a chemical linker (L) according to the structure:(A) PTM-L-ULMwherein L is a bond or a chemical linker group, ULM is a E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety, and PTM is a target protein binding moiety. The number and/or relative positions of the moieties in the compounds illustrated herein is provided by way of example only. As would be understood by the skilled artisan, compounds described herein can be synthesized with any desired number and/or relative position of the respective functional moieties. [0071]The terms ULM, ILM, VLM, MLM, and CLM are used in their inclusive sense unless the context indicates otherwise. For example, the term ULM is inclusive of all ULMs, including those that bind IAP (i.e., ILMs), MDM2 (i.e., MLM), cereblon (i.e., CLM), and VHL (i.e., VLM). Further, the term ILM is inclusive of all possible IAP E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moieties, the term MLM is inclusive of all possible MDM2 E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moieties, the term VLM is inclusive of all possible VHL binding moieties, and the term CLM is inclusive of all cereblon binding moieties. [0072]In another aspect, the present disclosure provides bifunctional or multifunctional compounds (e.g., PROTACs) useful for regulating protein activity by inducing the degradation of a target protein. In certain embodiments, the compound comprises an ILM or a VLM or a CLM or a MLM coupled, e.g., linked covalently, directly or indirectly, to a moiety that binds a target protein (i.e., a protein targeting moiety or a "PTM"). In certain embodiments, the ILM/VLM/CLM/MLM and PTM are joined or coupled via a chemical linker (L). The ILM binds the IAP E3 ubiquitin ligase, the VLM binds VHL, CLM binds the cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase, and MLM binds the MDM2 E3 ubiquitin ligase, and the PTM recognizes a target protein and the interaction of the respective moieties with their targets facilitates the degradation of the WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 target protein by placing the target protein in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase protein. An exemplary bifunctional compound can be depicted as:(B) PTM—ILM(C) PTM—CLM(D) PTM—VLM(E) PTM—MEM [0073]In certain embodiments, the bifunctional compound further comprises a chemical linker ("L"). For example, the bifunctional compound can be depicted as:(F) PTM—L—ILM(G) PTM—L—CLM(H) PTM—L—VLM(I) PTM—L—MLMwherein the PTM is a protein/polypeptide targeting moiety, the L is a chemical linker, the ILM is a IAP E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety, the CLM is a cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety, the VLM is a VHL binding moiety, and the MLM is a MDM2 E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety. [0074]In certain embodiments, the ULM (e.g., a ILM, a CLM, a VLM, or a MLM) shows activity or binds to the E3 ubiquitin ligase (e.g., IAP E3 ubiquitin ligase, cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase, VHL, or MDM2 E3 ubiquitin ligase) with an IC50 of less than about 200 pM. The ICcan be determined according to any method known in the art, e.g., a fluorescent polarization assay. [0075]In certain additional embodiments, the bifunctional compounds described herein demonstrate an activity with an IC50 of less than about 100, 50, 10, 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001 mM, or less than about 100, 50, 10, 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001 pM, or less than about 100, 50, 10, 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001 nM, or less than about 100, 50, 10, 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001 pM. [0076]In certain embodiments, the compounds as described herein comprise multiple PTMs (targeting the same or different protein targets), multiple ULMs, one or more ULMs (i.e., moieties that bind specifically to multiple/different E3 ubiquitin ligase, e.g., VHL, IAP, cereblon, and/or MDM2) or a combination thereof. In any of the aspects or embodiments described herein, the PTMs and ULMs (e.g., ILM, VLM, CLM, and/or MLM) can be coupled directly or via one WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 or more chemical linkers or a combination thereof. In additional embodiments, where a compound has multiple ULMs, the ULMs can be for the same E3 ubiquintin ligase or each respective ULM can bind specifically to a different E3 ubiquitin ligase. In still further embodiments, where a compound has multiple PTMs, the PTMs can bind the same target protein or each respective PTM can bind specifically to a different target protein. [0077]In certain embodiments, where the compound comprises multiple ULMs, the ULMs are identical. In additional embodiments, the compound comprising a plurality of ULMs (e.g., ULM, ULM’, etc.), at least one PTM coupled to a ULM directly or via a chemical linker (L) or both. In certain additional embodiments, the compound comprising a plurality of ULMs further comprises multiple PTMs. In still additional embodiments, the PTMs are the same or, optionally, different. In still further embodiments, wherein the PTMs are different, the respective PTMs may bind the same protein target or bind specifically to a different protein target. [0078]In certain embodiments, the compound may comprise a plurality of ULMs and/or a plurality of ULM’s. In further embodiments, the compound comprising at least two different ULMs, a plurality of ULMs, and/or a plurality of ULM’s further comprises at least one PTM coupled to a ULM or a ULM’ directly or via a chemical linker or both.

In still further embodiments, wherein the PTMs are different the respective PTMs may bind the same protein target or bind specifically to a different protein target. In still further embodiments, the PTM itself is a ULM (or ULM’), such as an ILM, a VLM, a CLM, a MLM, an ILM’, a VLM’, a CLM’, and/or a MLM’. [0079]In additional embodiments, the description provides the compounds as described herein including their enantiomers, diastereomers, solvates and polymorphs, including pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms thereof, e.g., acid and base salt forms. [0080]The term "independently " is used herein to indicate that the variable, which is independently applied, varies independently from application to application. [0081]The term "alkyl " shall mean within its context a linear, branch-chained or cyclic fully saturated hydrocarbon radical or alkyl group, preferably a C1-C10, more preferably a C1-C6, alternatively a C1-C3 alkyl group, which may be optionally substituted. Examples of alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-decyl, WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 isopropyl, 2-methylpropyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopropylmethyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclopen- tylethyl, cyclohexylethyl and cyclohexyl, among others.

[0363]The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" is used throughout the specification to describe, where applicable, a salt form of one or more of the compounds described herein which are presented to increase the solubility of the compound in the gastic juices of the patient's gastrointestinal tract in order to promote dissolution and the bioavailability of the compounds. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic bases and acids, where applicable.

General Synthetic Approach [0365]The synthetic realization and optimization of the bifunctional molecules as described herein may be approached in a step-wise or modular fashion. For example, identification of compounds that bind to the target molecules can involve high or medium throughput screening campaigns if no suitable ligands are immediately available. It is not unusual for initial ligands to require iterative design and optimization cycles to improve suboptimal aspects as identified by data from suitable in vitro and pharmacological and/or ADMET assays. Part of the optimization/SAR campaign would be to probe positions of the ligand that are tolerant of substitution and that might be suitable places on which to attach the linker chemistry previously referred to herein. Where crystallographic or NMR structural data are available, these can be used to focus such a synthetic effort. [0366]In a very analogous way one can identify and optimize ligands for an E3 Ligase, i.e. ULMs/ILMs/VLMs/CLMs/ILMs. 328 WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 id="p-367"
[0367]With PTMs and ULMs (e.g. ILMs, VLMs, CLMs, and/or ILMs) in hand, one skilled in the art can use known synthetic methods for their combination with or without a linker moiety. Linker moieties can be synthesized with a range of compositions, lengths and flexibility and functionalized such that the PTM and ULM groups can be attached sequentially to distal ends of the linker. Thus a library of bifunctional molecules can be realized and profiled in in vitro and in vivo pharmacological and ADMET/PK studies. As with the PTM and ULM groups, the final bifunctional molecules can be subject to iterative design and optimization cycles in order to identify molecules with desirable properties. [0368]In some instances, protecting group strategies and/or functional group interconversions (FGIs) may be required to facilitate the preparation of the desired materials. Such chemical processes are well known to the synthetic organic chemist and many of these may be found in texts such as "Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis " Peter G. M. Wuts and Theodora W. Greene (Wiley), and "Organic Synthesis: The Disconnection Approach " Stuart Warren and Paul Wyatt (Wiley).

[2404] The following examples are used to assist in describing the disclosure, but should not be seen as limiting the disclosure in any way.
EXAMPLES Assays and Degradation Data [2405] Protocol for a cellular assay of target protein degradation (A375 cells).A3cells were cultured in ATCC DMEM+10%FBS in 12 well plates, and treated with indicated compound from Tables 1-41 or 0.1% DMSO vehicle control for 16 hours. Cells were harvested in Cell Signaling lysis buffer (Cat# 9803) with the addition of Roche protease inhibitor tablets (Cat# 11873580001), and lysates clarified by microcentrifugation. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes using an Invitrogen iBlot system. Immunoblotting was performed for BRAE (Santa Cruz Cat# 9002), CRAF (BD Cat#610151), and pErk (Cell Signaling Cat#9106). GAPDH (Cat#) was used as a loading control. Quantification was carried out using the BioRad Image Lab 5 software. [2406] Protocol for an In-Cell Western cellular assay of target protein degradation (A375 cells).A375 cells were cultured in ATCC DMEM+10% FBS in 96-well plates, and treated with indicated compounds from Tables-43 or 0.1% DMSO vehicle control for 72 hours. Cells were washed with PBS lx, and affixed to plate using 4% PEA in phosphate buffered saline 953 WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 for 15 minutes; washed IX and permeabilized using 0.1% Triton-X-100 in PBS for 5 minutes; washed IX and blocked with LICOR blocker (Cat.# 927-50000) for 1 hour. Cells were then incubated with B-Raf antibody (Santa Cruz Cat# 9002) and tubulin antibody (Sigma #T6074) in LICOR blocker for 18 hours. Cells were washed 3x prior to adding secondary antibodies (LICOR cat #926-32210 and 926-68071) and incubated for Ihr. Cells were washed 3x and imaged using LICOR Odyssey Software. [2407] The bifunctional compounds of Tables 1A, IB, IC, and ID (Figures 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D, respectively) are examples of the bifunctional compounds that are described in the claims of this application. Some of them have been tested to see if they would exhibit the degradation activity of BRAF protein in cells, and their results are given in the columns of DC50 and Dmax in Tables 2A, 2B, and 2D (Figures 3 A, 3B, and 3D). Herein, DC50 is the compound concentration at which the BRAF concentration level reaches a midpoint between the maximum level and the minimum level in the dose-response curve measuring the BRAF protein concentration in a cell as a function of the compound concentration added to the medium incubating the cells with the compound, and Dmax is the maximum protein degradation level that can be achieved by varying the compound concentration. Many compounds in these tables are not given any values or ranges of DC50 and Dmax because either they have not been tested or synthesized or they are prophetic examples. id="p-2408"
[2408] Protocols for Half Life and Percent Release of Prodrugs.Chain length isomers differ slightly in retention time during chromatographic separations, which provides a mixture that is enriched for the desired PEG chain length. Thus, the chromatographic separation does not provide for isolation of homogenous chain length products. Furthermore, analysis of pegylated samples by LCMS will show a slightly different mixture of chain lengths depending on the time point within the HPLC peak that the MS signal is reported for, or the interval over which the mass signals are averaged over id="p-2409"
[2409] For pegylated compounds that are mixtures of chain length isomers, the MS data in Table 2C report the signal that matches closely to the calculated mass for a chain length of the particular compound (e.g., n = 22). id="p-2410"
[2410] Due to the natural abundance of carbon 13 and deuterium (in the order of ~ 1 % each) organic molecules of the size of the prodrugs (MW~ 2000) are likely to contain a carbon- 954 WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 atom or deuterium atom in them. Therefore, the most intense mass spec signal for these molecules is one unit heavier than the calculated mass for the [M+H]+ ion that assumes carbon and H-l. The lightest isotope peak (all carbon 12 and H-l) is observable in all the samples, and is reported in the data tables. id="p-2411"
[2411] Large molecules, such as the prodrugs of the present disclosure, typically, and expected by someone skilled in the art, show m/z signals for mono-, double- and triple- protonated ions. [M+H]+, [M+2H]2+and [M+3H]3+.Often the MSsignal for the mono-charged [M+H]+ion is weaker than the double- and triple-charged ions. id="p-2412"
[2412] Names for the PEGylated prodrugs of Table IC were generated by Chemdraw Pro (Version 18.0) are for the n = 22 chain length form, do not represent the mixture of chain lengths, and are found in Table 2C. id="p-2413"
[2413] PEG-Prodrugs of the present disclosure were treated with Heparin-stabilized plasma of multiple species to study release rates of parent drug. id="p-2414"
[2414] Protocol for determination of release rates of parent drug from PEG prodrugs of this invention: A stock solution of test compound was prepared in DMSO and diluted to the final concentration of 1 mM. 1 mM lovastatin and propantheline working solution was prepared in DMSO and acetonitrile, respectively. Propantheline and lovastatin was used as positive control. 2.5 pL of this 1 mM stock solution was spiked to 497.5 pL plasma to reach a final concentration of 5 pM. The final concentration of organic solvents was 0.5 %. The assay was performed in duplicated. The reaction samples were incubated at 37°C at approximately 60 rpm in a water bath. For prodrug samples, aliquots of 50 pL were taken from the reaction samples at 0, 2, 5, 15, 30, 120, 300 and 1440 minutes. For the intermediate or parent standard, aliquots of 50 pL were taken from the reaction samples at 0 minute. The pH value was measured before and after the incubation. id="p-2415"
[2415] The reaction was stopped by the addition of 7 volumes of cold acetonitrile containing internal standards (IS, 200 ng/mL). Alternatively, methanol with 0.1% formic acid was used for those compounds that precipitated from acetonitrile. id="p-2416"
[2416] All samples were vortexed for 2 minutes, followed by centrifugation at 3220 g for minutes to precipitate proteins. 100 pL of the supernatant was transferred to a new plate. The 955 WO 2020/051564 PCT/US2019/050114 supernatant was diluted with ultrapure water according to the LC-MS signal response and peak shape. Samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. id="p-2417"
[2417] EC system: Shimadzu Triple Quad 6500+ Low Mass from AB Inc (Canada) with an ESI interface, Column temperature: 40 °C, Injection volume: 10 pL, Column: XSelect Hss T2.5p (2.1x30 mm) Column XP coupled with preguard column, Mobile phase: 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile (B) and 0.1% formic acid in water (A). id="p-2418"
[2418] All calculations were carried out using Microsoft Excel. Remaining percentages of prodrug at each time point were determinied by the peak area ratios from extracted ion chromatograms. Appearance of the intermediate or parent (uM) were calculated by the peak area ratios of the intermediate or parent of prodrug samples and intermediate or parent standard respectively. id="p-2419"
[2419] Summary of Figures 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 6C, 7, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, and 10.Bifunctional compounds comprising PTM-IIa and PTM-IIb, such as compound 512, induces targeted degradation of BRAE mutants sensitive (Class 1) and insensitive (Class 2 and Class 3) to vemurafenib. Degradation of mutant BRAE suppresses MAPK and can halt cancer cell growth. Wild-type BRAE is spared from degradation despite the ability to engage bifunctional compounds of the present disclosure and form a ternary complex; inefficient recruitment of Cullin 2 might explain the osbserved results. Induced degradation may be a strategy to overcome vemuragenib resistance.
