, (2021/04/17)
The present invention provides, in one aspect, bifunctional compounds that can be used to promote or enhance degradation of certain circulating proteins. In another aspect, the present invention provides bifunctional compounds that can be used to promote or enhance degradation of certain autoantibodies. In certain embodiments, treatment or management of a disease and/or disorder requires degradation, removal, or reduction in concentration of the circulating protein or the autoantibody in the subject. Thus, in certain embodiments, administration of a compound of the invention to the subject removes or reduces the circulation concentration of the circulating protein or the autoantibody, thus treating, ameliorating, or preventing the disease and/or disorder. In certain embodiments, the circulating protein is TNF.
CYTOTOXIC-DRUG DELIVERING MOLECULES TARGETING HIV (CDM-HS), CYTOTOXIC ACTIVITY AGAINST THE HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS AND METHODS OF USE

Sheet 8, (2013/11/18)
The present invention is directed to new bifunctional compounds and methods for treating HIV infections. The bifunctional small molecules, generally referred to as CDM-Hs, function through orthogonal pathways, by inhibiting the gp120-CD4 interaction, and by introducing cytotoxic moieties to gp120-expressing cells, thereby causing cell death and preventing cell infection and spread of HIV. It is shown that CDM-Hs bind to gp120 and gp-120 expressing cells competitively with CD4, and these compounds cause cell death of HIV-infected cells, thereby decreasing viral infectivity. Compounds and methods are described herein.
