TMX-2172
Based on 1 Customer Validation
TMX-2172 is a selective bivalent cereblon-recruiting PROTAC-based dual CDK2 and CDK5 degrader with IC50 values of 6.5 nM and 6.8 nM, respectively. TMX-2172 shows selectivity for CDK2 and CDK5 over other cell cycle CDKs (CDK1, CDK4, and CDK6) and transcriptional CDKs (CDK7 and CDK9). TMX-2172 inhibits CDK2/CDK5 enzymatic activity, induces their proteasomal degradation, reduces ASCL1 protein levels and half-life, induces cancer cell death, and exerts antiproliferative effects. TMX-2172 can be used for the research of ovarian cancer and small cell lung cancer.

CDK2 6.5 nM (IC50) |
CDK5 6.8 nM (IC50) |
TMX-2172 (6.5-33 nM) acts as a dual CDK2/CDK5 degrader, potently inhibiting CDK2 enzyme activity (IC50 6.5 nM), OVCAR8 ovarian cancer cell proliferation (IC50 33 nM), and inducing CDK2 degradation in OVCAR8 cells (DC50 33 nM), with cell death dependent on CDK2 degradation rather than CDK5 activity[1].
TMX-2172 (0.12-10 μM) efficiently degrades HiBit-tagged CDK2 in CRISPR-edited HEK293T cells, as measured by reduced normalized luminescence signals[2].
TMX-2172 (500 nM; 36 h) down-regulates CDK2 and ASCL1 protein levels in NCI-H1876 human SCLC cells, with no significant change in ASCL1 mRNA levels[3].
TMX-2172 (500 nM; 8 h) down-regulates CDK2 and ASCL1 protein and mRNA levels in 97-2 mouse SCLC cells[3].
TMX-2172 (500 nM; 4 h) decreases the half-life of ASCL1 protein in 97-2 mouse SCLC cells, with the half-life reduced from 28 to 21 minutes following treatment with 500 nM TMX-2172 for 4 hours plus cycloheximide chase[3].
TMX-2172 (250 nM; dose-dependent concentrations) selectively degrades CDK2 in Jurkat and OVCAR8 human cancer cell lines, with CDK5 degradation in OVCAR8 cells not contributing to anti-proliferative activity[4].
TMX-2172 exhibits potent inhibitory activity against CDK2/cyclin A and CDK5/p25 (IC50 = 6.5 nM and 6.8 nM, respectively), with drastically reduced potency against CDK1, CDK4, CDK6, CDK7, and CDK9[5].
TMX-2172 engages CRBN in cells with an IC50 of 46.9 nM, demonstrating good cell permeability[5].
TMX-2172 (0.05-5 μM; 6 h) induces dose-dependent CRBN-mediated degradation of CDK2 and CDK5, but not CDK1, CDK4, CDK6, CDK7, or CDK9, in Jurkat cells[5].
TMX-2172 (250 nM; 6 h) effectively degrades CDK2, CDK5, and Aurora A, and weakly degrades RSK1, JNK2, and STK33, but does not degrade CDK1, in OVCAR8 cells[5].
TMX-2172 (0.05-5 μM; 6 h) induces dose-dependent degradation of CDK2 and CDK5, but not CDK1, CDK4, CDK6, CDK7, or CDK9, in OVCAR8 cells; 5 μM is required for observable Aurora A degradation[5].
TMX-2172 (72 h) potently inhibits OVCAR8 cell growth with a GR50 of 33.1 nM, with activity driven primarily by CDK2 degradation rather than CDK5 degradation[5].
