PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 is the first potent IDO1 (indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1) degrader that hijacks IDO1 to CRBN E3 ligase to introduce IDO1 into UPS and eventually achieve ubiquitination and degradation (DC50=2.84 μM). PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 moderately improves the tumor-killing activity of H ER2 CAR-T cells[1]. PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 (compound 2c) (10 μM; 24 hours) notably decreases IDO1 level induced by IFN-γ[1].PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 and IFN-γ (5 ng mL) are incubated with HeLa cells for 24 h, and a significant dose-dependent degradation is observed. PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 combined with chimeric antigen receptor-modified T (CAR-T) cells can improve the tumor-killing activity of HER-2 CAR-T cells[1].PROTAC IDO1 Degrader-1 induces significant and persistent degradation of IDO1 with maximum degradation (dmax) of 93% in HeLa cells[1].

IDO1 TDO-IN-3 is a powerful inhibitor targeting IDO1 and TDO enzymes. It displays noteworthy effectiveness against IDO1 (IC50: 0.005 μM) and TDO (IC50: 0.004 μM). Additionally, IDO1 TDO-IN-3 demonstrates considerable in vivo anti-tumor properties while exhibiting no apparent toxicity [1].
IDO1 TDO-IN-1 (30) is a highly effective inhibitor that targets both IDO1 and TDO enzymes with uncompetitive (Ki = 0.23 μM) and competitive (Ki = 0.73 μM) mechanisms, respectively. This compound, IDO1 TDO-IN-1 (30), exhibits a significant capacity to induce cell apoptosis via the potential mitochondria-mediated Bcl-2 Bax pathway [1].
(Rac)-IDO1-IN-5 is a racemate of IDO1-IN-5, a potent, selective, and brain-penetrating inhibitor of Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) activity. It specifically binds to apo-IDO1, which lacks heme, instead of mature heme-bound IDO1.
CAY10763 is a dual inhibitor of indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1; IC50= 46 nM) and STAT3 activation.1It binds to STAT3 (Kd= 530 nM) and selectively reduces the levels of STAT3 phosphorylated at the tyrosine in position 705 (STAT3Y705) over phosphorylated STAT3S727, STAT1, and STAT5 in SKOV3 cells when used at a concentration of 500 nM. It also inhibits STAT3 nuclear translocation in SKOV3 cells. CAY10763 is cytotoxic to HCT116, SKOV3, A549, and HepG2 cancer cells (IC50s = 37, 28, 33, and 12 nM, respectively). It reduces tumor growth in B16 F10 mouse melanoma and HepG2 mouse xenograft models when administered at doses of 100 and 10 mg kg, respectively. 1.Huang, R., Jing, X., Huang, X., et al.Bifunctional naphthoquinone aromatic amide-oxime derivatives exert combined immunotherapeutic and antitumor effects through simultaneous targeting of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3J.

IDO1-IN-7, a potent and selective indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) inhibitor, exhibits high potency with an IC 50 of 6.1 nM in the cellular assay (SKOV3). Apart from its inhibitory properties, IDO1-IN-7 also demonstrates immunomodulatory effects, contributing to its potential applications in cancer research.
IDO1-IN-14 (compound 4a) is a highly effective inhibitor of the IDO1 enzyme, exhibiting an IC50 value of 396.9 nM. Additionally, IDO1-IN-14 demonstrates excellent suppression of cellular IDO1 activity, as observed in HeLa cells with an EC50 value of 3393 nM [1].
