Summary for Patent: 10,172,905
Title:Treatment of protein degradation disorders
Abstract: The invention relates to methods of treating protein degradation disorders, such cellular proliferative disorders (e.g., cancer) and protein deposition disorders (e.g., neurodegenerative disorders). The invention provides methods and pharmaceutical compositions for treating these diseases using aggresome inhibitors or combinations of aggresome inhibitors and proteasome inhibitors. The invention further relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for treating multiple myeloma. New HDAC/TDAC inhibitors and aggresome inhibitors are also provided as well as synthetic methodologies for preparing these compounds.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the aggresome inhibitor is of the formula: ##STR00074## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen, or an aliphatic, alicyclic, heteroaliphatic, heterocyclic, aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety; n is 1-5; R.sup.2 is hydrogen, a protecting group, or an aliphatic, alicyclic, heteroaliphatic, heterocyclic, aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety; X is --O--, --C(R.sup.2A).sub.2--, --S--, or --NR.sup.2A--, wherein R.sup.2A is hydrogen, a protecting group, or an aliphatic, alicyclic, heteroaliphatic, heterocyclic, aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety; or wherein two or more occurrences of R.sup.2 and R.sup.2A, taken together, form an alicyclic or heterocyclic moiety, or an aryl or heteroaryl moiety; R.sup.3 is an aliphatic, alicyclic, heteroaliphatic, heterocyclic, aromatic, or heteroaromatic moiety; and Y is hydrogen or an aliphatic, alicyclic, heteroaliphatic, heterocyclic, aromatic, or heteroaromatic moiety.
