Off-Target Selectivity Assesments

Potency end-point : DC50 13 nM (88% Dmax)
Potency assay (off target): Selective against IKZF1, GSPT1 possible SALL4 off-target was discarded after cellular assay.
Potency assay, off target (cells): Quantitative proteomics profiling of Jurkat cells treated for 16 h with 2.5 μM DKY709 or DMSO display DKY709 to be selective against IZKF3 DC50 > 50uM (IZKF4 13 nM DC50 but Dmax is only 21%)

SERP Comments:

DKY709 is a very well-characterized molecular glue degrader of IKZF2 and an excellent probe. Similar in structure to pomalidomide, DKY709 was successfully designed to not degrade other neosubstrates of pomalidomide like IKZF1, IKZF3, and GSPT1. Selectivity is demonstrated with a quantitative proteomics study and rationalized with X-ray crystallography. Appropriate PK studies in multiple species enable accurate in vivo dosing. Of note: DKY709 partially degrades IKZF4 and quite effectively degrades SALL4; therefore, users should take care to confirm whether these proteins are expressed in their experimental system or control whether they play a role in any identified phenotypes.
