Novel pyrrolopyridone BET degraders were designed and synthesized based on the binding mode between the pyrrolopyridone BET inhibitor with the BRD4 protein. The potent degraders on MV-4-11?cells were discovered through structure-activity relationship study. Modification of warhead on pyrrolopyridone BET degraders significantly regulates BRD4 isoform (long and short) protein degradation, which induces differential cell cycle arrest and apoptosis on MV-4-11?cells. Docking study revealed that the fine structural modification of BET degraders may bind with the BD domain of BRD4 protein to engage various surface areas that bind with CRBN.
