• This disclosure features chemical entities (e.g., a compound or apharmaceutically acceptable salt, and/or hydrate, and/or cocrystal, and/or drug combination of the compound) that modulate (e.g., agonizes or partially agonizes) NLRP3 that are useful, e.g., for treating a condition, disease or disorder in which an increase in NLRP3 signaling may correct a deficiency in innate immune activity that contributes to the pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression and/or treatment refractory state of the condition, disease or disorder (e.g., cancers with low T-cell infiltration) in a subject (e.g., a human).
• This disclosure also features compositions as well as other methods of using and making the same.
• NLRs Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors
• PAMPs pathogen-associated molecular patterns
• endogenous molecules see, e.g., Ting, J. P. Y. et al., "The NLR gene family: a standard nomenclature,” Immunity, 28(3):285-287, (2008)).
• NLRPs represent a subfamily of NLRs that include a Pyrin domain and are constituted by proteins such as NLRP1, NLRP3, NLRP4, NLRP6, NLRP7, and NLRP12. NLRPs are believed to be involved with the formation of multiprotein complexes termed inflammasomes (see, e.g., Chaput, C. et al., "NOD-like receptors in lung diseases," Frontiers in Immunology, 4: article 393, (2013)).
• These complexes typically include one or two NLR proteins, the adapter molecule apoptosis associated speck-like containing a CARD domain (ASC) and pro-caspase-1 F (see, e.g., Bauernfeind, F and Hornung, V. "Of inflammasomes and pathogens— sensing of microbes by the inflammasome,” EMBO Molecular Medicine, 5(6): 814-826, (2013)).
• ASC CARD domain
• pro-caspase-1 F see, e.g., Bauernfeind, F and Hornung, V. "Of inflammasomes and pathogens— sensing of microbes by the inflammasome," EMBO Molecular Medicine, 5(6): 814-826, (2013).
• inflammasome is formed by the NLRP3 scaffold, the ASC adaptor and pro-caspase-1 (see, e.g., Hirota, J. A., et al, "The airway epithelium nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat protein 3 inflammasome is activated by urban particulate matter," Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 129(4): 1 116.e6-l 125. e6, (2012)), and its expression is believed to be induced by inflammatory cytokines and TLR agonists in myeloid cells and human bronchial epithelial cells (Id.).

• An "agonist" of NLRP3 includes compounds that, at the protein level, directly bind or modify NLRP3 such that an activity of NLRP3 is increased, e.g., by activation, stabilization, altered distribution, or otherwise.
• Certain compounds described herein that agonize NLRP3 to a lesser extent than a NLRP3 full agonist can function in assays as antagonists as well as agonists. These compounds antagonize activation of NLRP3 by a NLRP3 full agonist because they prevent the full effect of NLRP3 interaction. However, the compounds also, on their own, activate some NLRP3 activity, typically less than a corresponding amount of the NLRP3 full agonist. Such compounds may be referred to as "partial agonists of NLRP3".
• the compounds described herein are agonists (e.g. full agonists) of NLRP3. In other embodiments, the compounds described herein are partial agonists of NLRP3.
• a receptor exists in an active (Ra) and an inactive (Ri) conformation.
• Certain compounds that affect the receptor can alter the ratio of Ra to Ri (Ra/Ri).
• a full agonist increases the ratio of Ra/Ri and can cause a "maximal", saturating effect.
