    Molecular glue targets ALK resistance

    Conery et al. report in Nature the discovery and preclinical characterization of TRI-611, a selective, brain-penetrant molecular glue degrader that targets ALK fusion proteins in non-small-cell lung cancer, including tyrosine kinase inhibitor-resistant variants. The approach aims to address acquired resistance driven by ALK kinase domain mutations, TKI toxicity, and limited CNS penetration that hinders treatment of brain metastases. Further preclinical and clinical development would follow.

    Why it matters: Molecular glue degrader offers a new way to overcome ALK TKI resistance and CNS penetration limits in NSCLC.

    TRI-611, a selective, brain-penetrant molecular glue degrader of ALK.

    TRI-611, a brain-penetrant molecular glue degrader, bridges the ALK kinase domain and the CRL4 adaptor CRBN through a degron interface distinct from the kinase active site, yielding proteome-wide selectivity. It degrades all ALK fusion protein forms tested, including wild-type and TKI-resistant versions, driving regression of subcutaneous and intracranial tumour models of ALK-positive NSCLC, alone and synergistically with ALK TKIs. It is described as the first clinical-stage molecular glue degrader targeting an oncogenic gene fusion.

    Why it matters: It offers an orthogonal, degradation-based option for ALK-positive NSCLC after progression on approved TKIs.
