| Targets |
SMARCA2 (BRM), a catalytic subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex. SMD-3040 is a selective SMARCA2 PROTAC degrader with a DC50 of 12 nM and a maximum degradation (Dmax) of 91%. It binds to SMARCA2 and the VHL E3 ligase simultaneously, tagging SMARCA2 with ubiquitin for proteasomal destruction. This mechanism exploits the synthetic lethal relationship in cancers that have lost the paralog, SMARCA4.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, SMD-3040 demonstrates potent and selective degradation of SMARCA2 (DC50 = 12 nM) in a variety of cancer cell lines, with minimal effect on its highly related family member SMARCA4. This degradation results in the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, particularly in SMARCA4-deficient cells. SMD-3040 effectively kills these cancer cells by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, validating SMARCA2 as a therapeutic target.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, SMD-3040 exhibits strong antitumor activity in preclinical xenograft models. In mice bearing SMARCA4-deficient human tumor xenografts, systemic administration of SMD-3040 leads to robust SMARCA2 degradation in the tumor tissue, which correlates with significant tumor growth inhibition or regression. These studies demonstrate the therapeutic potential of SMARCA2 degradation for treating specific cancers, such as non-small cell lung cancer.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A non-cell-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) assay is used to confirm ternary complex formation. VHL protein (His-tagged) and SMARCA2 protein (Flag-tagged) are incubated with increasing concentrations of SMD-3040 (0-10000 nM). Terbium-labeled anti-His and fluorescein-labeled anti-Flag antibodies are added. TR-FRET signal is measured. A positive signal indicates the compound's ability to bridge the E3 ligase and target.
|
| Cell Assay |
SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer cells (e.g., NCI-H1299) are seeded in 96-well plates. After 24 hours, cells are treated with increasing concentrations of SMD-3040 (0-1000 nM) for 5 days. Cell viability is measured using a CellTiter-Glo assay. For degradation analysis, cells are treated with 0.1-100 nM of the compound for 8-24 h, lysed, and analyzed by Western blotting with SMARCA2 and SMARCA4 antibodies.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Female BALB/c nude mice are subcutaneously implanted with SMARCA4-deficient cancer cells. When tumors reach ~150-200 mm3, mice are randomized into groups (n=8-10). SMD-3040 is administered via intraperitoneal injection at doses of 1-30 mg/kg, once daily or every other day, for 3-4 weeks. Tumor volume is measured using calipers every 3 days. At the end of the study, tumors are collected for Western blot analysis of SMARCA2 degradation and downstream pharmacodynamic markers.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
SMD-3040 is a research compound with a molecular weight of 943.21 and a purity of ≥98%. It is soluble in DMSO at concentrations >100 mg/mL. For in vivo administration, it is typically formulated in a vehicle such as 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween-80, and 45% saline. PK studies are needed, but it is expected to have a short to moderate half-life (2-6 hours), moderate clearance, and good tissue distribution.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
SMD-3040 is for research use only and is not approved for human clinical use. In preclinical toxicology studies in mice, the compound is generally well-tolerated at effective doses, with no significant body weight loss or major organ toxicities reported. Since it targets a chromatin regulator, the primary risk is on-target hematologic toxicity, but selectivity over SMARCA4 may reduce this risk. Standard handling precautions for chemical probes should be followed.

| Additional Infomation |
SMD-3040 (CAS: 3033109-92-8) is a chemical probe used to study the SMARCA2/4 synthetic lethal axis. The compound demonstrates a remarkable balance of high potency (DC50 = 12 nM) and high selectivity for SMARCA2 over SMARCA4. It is not an approved drug but is a valuable research tool. Storage as a powder at -20degC is recommended for long-term stability. It is a PROTAC molecule, not a traditional inhibitor.
