A PROTAC that drives mutant EGFR degradation
Gefitinib-based PROTAC 3, conjugating an EGFR binding element to a VHL ligand via a linker, induces EGFR degradation with DC50s of 11.7 nM and 22.3 nM in HCC827(exon 19 del) and H3255 (L858R mutantion) cells, respectively[1].
H3255 cells expressing L858R EGFR treated with Gefitinib-based PROTAC 3 (25 nM-10 μM; 24 hours), HCC827 cells expressing exon 19 del EGFR treated with Gefitinib-based PROTAC 3 (100 nM-10 μM; 24 hours), which enables the degradation of both exon-19 deletion EGFR as well as the mutant isoform containing the L858R activating point mutation, while sparing the WT EGFR[1].
