Seldegamadlin (also known as KT-253) is an advanced experimental oncology drug designed as a first-in-class, highly potent MDM2 PROTAC degrader and p53 stabilizer. It utilizes targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology to selectively eliminate the MDM2 oncoprotein, which restores the normal function of the critical tumor suppressor protein, p53.

How it Works

  • Targeted Protein Degradation: It acts as a heterobifunctional PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera). It features one end that binds tightly to MDM2 and another end that recruits the cereblon (CRBN) E3 ubiquitin ligase.
  • p53 Stabilization: By tethering them together, it forces the cell's natural disposal machinery to ubiquitinate and rapidly destroy MDM2. Because MDM2 normally suppresses and destroys p53, deleting MDM2 leads to an immediate up-regulation and stabilization of active p53.
  • Apoptosis Activation: The sudden resurgence of active p53 fires up downstream targets like p21, forcing wild-type p53 cancer cells to halt their cell cycle (at the G2/M phase) and trigger rapid programmed cell death (apoptosis).

Primary Areas of Research

Seldegamadlin is actively being evaluated and researched for therapeutic efficacy against specific wild-type p53 malignancies:

  • Hematologic Tumours: Including Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).
  • Solid Tumours: Such as Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) and other forms retaining functional p53 signaling pathways

protease inhibitor, antiviral, S-892216, S 892216, FMV68MJ8XK

Secutrelvir (also known by its developmental code S-892216) is an advanced, next-generation oral antiviral drug developed by the pharmaceutical company Shionogi. It functions as a potent SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease (3CLpro / \(M^{\text{pro}}\)) inhibitor designed primarily for the treatment of COVID-19.

As of August 2026, the drug has entered late-stage development, with Shionogi moving into Phase 3 clinical trials to assess its efficacy and safety in patients.

Key Properties & Advantages

Unlike first-generation COVID-19 antivirals, secutrelvir was structurally optimized to address the limitations of existing treatments like Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) and Shionogi’s own Xocova (ensitrelvir).

  • No CYP Booster Required: Secutrelvir offers 100% oral bioavailability without needing a pharmacokinetic booster like ritonavir. This dramatically reduces the risk of severe drug-drug interactions that complicate Paxlovid prescriptions.
  • Overcoming Viral Resistance: In laboratory assays, the compound demonstrates zero cross-resistance to viral mutants that have grown resistant to nirmatrelvir or ensitrelvir (such as those carrying E166V or M49L mutations).
  • High Off-Target Selectivity: It features high selectivity (>15,000-fold) over human proteases, ensuring it specifically targets viral replication without disrupting normal human cellular functions.
  • Broad Spectrum (Pan- β-CoV): The compound maintains high potency against a wide range of SARS-CoV-2 variants—including newer strains like Omicron JN.1—as well as other coronaviruses like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV.

Mechanism of Action

Secutrelvir relies on a structure-based design incorporating a nitrile warhead. It enters the catalytic active site of the virus's main protease (\(M^{\text{pro}}\)) and forms a reversible covalent bond with the catalytic amino acid residue cysteine C145. By binding to this pocket, it halts the protease from cutting viral polyproteins, effectively stopping viral replication in its tracks.

Clinical Evaluation Status

  • Pharmacokinetics: Clinical pharmacology data released by Shionogi Medical demonstrated excellent safety, high tolerability, and no clinically relevant food effects, meaning the drug can be taken with or without food.
  • Phase 3 Trials (NCT07743580 / NCT07746544): Late-stage double-blind, placebo-controlled interventional studies are assessing the drug in symptomatic, non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients who are at risk of progressing to severe illness. To qualify for the trials, patients must receive the drug within 72 hours of symptom onset

Rugocrixan (also known by its developmental codes KAND567 and AZD8797) is a first-in-class, orally active small molecule drug candidate developed by Novakand Pharma (formerly Kancera). It acts as a potent, non-competitive allosteric antagonist of the CX3CR1 receptor, which is commonly referred to as the fractalkine receptor. By blocking this specific pathway, the drug prevents hyperinflammation and inhibits the proliferation and DNA repair mechanisms of certain cancer cells.

KAND567, a small molecule, blocks the fractaline (CX3CL1) receptor, which mediates the immune system response to inflammation. Because COVID-19 involves cytotoxic cells associated with this pathway, KAND567 is currently being tested as a treatment for those with the illness.

Key Clinical Developments and Therapeutic Focus

Originally acquired from AstraZeneca, the drug has advanced into multiple Phase II clinical trials. Novakand Pharma transitioned its core business strategy to focus heavily on orphan drug designations for niche, treatment-resistant conditions. Its primary areas of investigation include:

  • Ovarian Cancer: Evaluated in the Phase IIa "KANDOVA" clinical trial for patients with treatment-resistant ovarian cancer. It functions by suppressing DNA repair in tumor cells, which enhances the effectiveness of platinum-based chemotherapy and drives the cancer cells into programmed cell death.
  • Hematological Cancers: In preclinical studies alongside institutions like the Karolinska Institutet, rugocrixan has demonstrated a capability to block the unwanted growth-promoting effects of immune cells on advanced blood cancers, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
  • Cardioprotection: Investigated via the "FRACTAL" Phase IIa trial in patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing angioplasty. The drug met its safety endpoints and showed signals of protecting heart tissue by reducing myocardial bleeding and the risk of thrombosis.

Companion Prodrug

Novakand Pharma is also developing a second-generation, water-soluble phosphate prodrug named fosrugocrixan (KAND145). Once administered, fosrugocrixan is metabolized into the active form of rugocrixan, offering enhanced product properties for intravenous or alternative delivery methods.

Because rugocrixan targets a brand-new pharmacological pathway, the World Health Organization (WHO) assigned it a unique suffix stem, establishing it as the international nomenclature standard for this entire new class of CX3CR1 antagonists

.xHCI

Compound 4 (1 .852 g, 5.74 mmol), DIPEA (1.1 12 g, 8.61 mmol) and D-leucinol (1.008 g, 8.61 mmmol) were dissolved in NMP (12 ml.) and the mixture was stirred at 120 °C in a sealed pyrex tube (start: 17:40).

HPLC after 15.5 h: ca. 98% conversion

HPLC after 19.5 h: >99% conversion

Work up: Ice water was poured into the mixture. Initially a solid was formed, but at the end of the addition the solid collapsed to a dark brown oil. EtOAc (50 ml.) was added and the phases were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2x25 ml_), and the combined organic phases were washed with water (8 ml_), sat. NaHC03 (3x8 ml_), water (8 ml.) and brine (8 ml_), dried over MgS04, filtered and evaporated. Dried in vacuum to yield 2.697 g of crude material as a brown oil. HPLC purity: ca. 92%. The oil was dissolved in MEK (ca. 18 mL) and cone. HCI (12.5 M, 574 pL, 7.18 mmol) was added. There was no spontaneous precipitation of the HCI salt. The mixture was gently stirred at RT and after ca. 20 min precipitation occurred. The mixture was stirred gently for 2.5 h and the solid was isolated by filtration on a P3 sintered glass filter. The solid was washed with three portions of MEK and was then dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 2.5 days. Yield (batch 1 ): 1 .224 g (48.5%) of the product as hydrochloride salt.

HPLC purity: 99.0% (basic method);

97.4% (acidic method).

A substantial amount of solids passed through the filter into the filtrate. The solids were isolated by centrifugation and the supernatant was removed by pipette. The solid was washed with two portions (ca. 2x5 mL) of MEK. After the last supernatant was removed the product was dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 2.5 days. Yield (batch 2): 324 mg (12.8%) of the product as hydrochloride salt.

HPLC purity: 99.0% (basic method);

97.5% (acidic method).

Combined yield: 1.548 g (61 .3%)

Both batches contain ca. 0.07% DMF (w/w). The DMF was already present in the starting material.

Further purification of the combined batches

The two batches of compound 5 were combined (1.338 g, 3.041 mmol) in a 50 mL roundbottomed flask and water (6 mL) was added followed by 2M NaOH (1.6 mL, 3.2 mmol). The mixture was stirred and EtOAc (40 mL) was added. An additional 0.5 mL (1 mmol) 2M NaOH was added during stirring. After 15 min all of the solids were dissolved and the phases were separated. The pH of the aqueous phase was measured with a pH stick =>pH=7. More 2M NaOH (0.4 mL, 0.8 mmol) was added to the aqueous phase resulting in a pH of 10. The aq. phase was extracted with EtOAc (25 mL) and the phases were separated. The combined organic phases were dried over Na2S04, filtered and evaporated to yield the free base as a crystalline beige solid. The free base was dissolved in MEK (15 mL) and HCI (37%, 12.5 M, 255 pL, 3.19 mmol) was added during stirring. A white precipitate was immediately formed. The mixture was stirred gently for 2 h and the solid was collected by filtration on a P4 sintered glass filter. The solids were washed with MEK (5 mL) and dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 3 h. Yield: 1.187 g (89% based on the unpurified material) of 99% pure product as a white solid. 1H NMR (600 MHz, CD30D) d ppm 7.49 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 2 H) 7.37 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 2 H) 7.27 - 7.32 (m, 1 H) 5.23 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 1 H) 4.60 - 4.70 (m, 1 H) 3.55 (d, J=5.5 Hz, 2 H) 1.83 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 3 H) 1.67 - 1.76 (m, 1 H) 1.58 -1.65 (m, 1 H) 1.48 - 1.54 (m, 1 H) 1.00 (d, J=6.7 Hz, 3 H) 0.98 (d,J=6.7 Hz, 3 H). MS (ESI+) m/z 404 [M+H]+

The diasteromeric ratio of the final product reflects the enantiomeric ratio of the starting material (compound 1 ), which was 99.7% (S).

1H NMR: The spectrum looks very pure. Trace amounts of DMF were, however, detected.

Romaciclib is an investigational new drug being evaluated by Ryvu Therapeutics for the treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). It is a dual inhibitor of CDK8 and CDK19.[1][2][3]

Romaciclib is an investigational, orally bioavailable small-molecule dual inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases 8 and 19 (CDK8 and CDK19), being developed by Ryvu Therapeutics for the treatment of hematologic malignancies such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelofibrosis.

Mechanism of Action

  • Targeted Inhibition: Romaciclib selectively targets CDK8 and CDK19 to disrupt oncogenic transcription programs essential for cancer cell survival while minimizing off-target effects.
  • Oral Administration: As an oral pill, it offers convenience and supports long-term therapy compliance compared to intravenous treatments.
  • Combination Potential: Preclinical and clinical evaluations show it helps overcome resistance mechanisms—such as restoring sensitivity to venetoclax (VEN) in relapsed/refractory AML—and exhibits synergistic activity with JAK inhibitors in myelofibrosis models.

Clinical Development

  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Evaluated in the Phase II RIVER-81 study in combination with venetoclax, showing encouraging anti-leukemic activity and durable responses in patients with relapsed or refractory disease.

Romaciclib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases 8 and 19 (CDK8/19), with potential antineoplastic and chemoprotective activities. Upon oral administration, romaciclib targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of CDK8/19, which prevents activation of CDK8/19-mediated oncogenic signaling pathways, blocks selective transcription of various tumor-promoting genes, and inhibits proliferation of CDK8/19-overexpressing tumor cells. CDK8/19, serine/threonine kinases involved in the regulation of the cell cycle, are overexpressed in certain cancer cell types and play key roles in tumor cell proliferation.
