Patent attributes
Bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of B-cell lymphoma 6 protein (BCL6; target protein), are described herein. In particular, the bifunctional compounds of the present disclosure contain on one end a cereblon ligand that binds to the respective E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds the target protein, such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of target protein. The bifunctional compounds of the present disclosure exhibit a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with degradation/inhibition of target protein. Diseases or disorders that result from aggregation or accumulation of the target protein are treated or prevented with compounds and compositions of the present disclosure.
