ND2158 (ND-2158) is a highly potent and selective IRAK4 inhibitor with IC50 of 1.3 nM;
ND2158 demonstrates high selectivity against 334 kinases, and >1000-fold over IRAK1.
ND2158 blocked TNF production, collagen-induced arthritis, and gout formation in mice, suppressed LPS-induced TNF production, alleviated collagen-induced arthritis, and blocked gout formation in mouse models.
IRAK4 inhibition promoted killing of ABC DLBCL lines harboring MYD88 L265P, by down-modulating survival signals, including NF-κB and autocrine IL-6/IL-10 engagement of the JAK-STAT3 pathway.
In ABC DLBCL xenograft models, IRAK4 inhibition suppressed tumor growth as a single agent, and in combination with the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib or the Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-199.
