Lenalidomide (hydrochloride)

Lenalidomide hydrochloride (CC-5013 hydrochloride), a derivative of Thalidomide, acts as molecular glue. Lenalidomide hydrochloride is an orally active immunomodulator. Lenalidomide hydrochloride (CC-5013 hydrochloride) is a ligand of ubiquitin E3 ligase cereblon (CRBN), and it causes selective ubiquitination and degradation of two lymphoid transcription factors, IKZF1 and IKZF3, by the CRBN-CRL4 ubiquitin ligase. Lenalidomide hydrochloride (CC-5013 hydrochloride) specifically inhibits growth of mature B-cell lymphomas, including multiple myeloma, and induces IL-2 release from T cells[1][2].
