Novel potent and orally active cereblon (CRBN) E3 ligase modulator

Ref: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0268960X22000686

Golcadomide is a modulator of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex containing cereblon (CRL4-CRBN E3 ubiquitin ligase), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, golcadomide specifically binds to cereblon (CRBN), thereby affecting the ubiquitin E3 ligase activity, and targeting certain substrate proteins for ubiquitination. This induces proteasome-mediated degradation of certain transcription factors, some of which are transcriptional repressors in T-cells. This leads to modulation of the immune system, including activation of T-lymphocytes, and downregulation of the activity of other proteins, some of which play key roles in the proliferation of certain cancer cell types. CRBN, the substrate recognition component of the CRL4-CRBN E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, plays a key role in the ubiquitination of certain proteins.

Additional 2-MeTHF (500 ml) was added to dilute the organic layer, resulting in a concentration of about 20 mg product per ml. A solution of HCl (total 0.98 eq.) in 2-MeTHF was prepared and a portion (20% of total, corresponding to ~0.2 eq.) then added to the reaction mixture over the course of about 10 min. Seeds of Compound 1 hydrochloride (~5% wt) were added, but did not dissolve. The batch was held under vigorous agitation for one hour. To the slurry, the remaining portion of the HCl solution (~0.78 eq.) was added over the course of 3 hours at a constant rate. Vigorous agitation was maintained. After addition was complete, the batch was held for one hour, after which the batch was filtered, washed three times with 3 L/kg of 2-MeTHF . The filter cake was placed in a vacuum oven at 22 °C for 12 hours, at which point the temperature was raised to 40 °C. Dry cake of Compound 1 hydrochloride (58g, 75% yield) was obtained and packaged. Achiral HPLC purity: 98.91%; chiral HPLC purity: 99.68%.
