"The small molecule VLX1570 and an analog b-AP15 specifically block the activity of DUBs USP14 and UCHL5 in the 19S regulatory subunit, which results in the rapid accumulation of high molecular weight ubiquitin conjugates, proteasome shutdown, and robust anti-tumor activity in well established orthotopic and xenograft models of MM, lymphoma, Ewing 's sarcoma, and other malignancies [XREF_BIBR - XREF_BIBR]."

"Notwithstanding this success, the potency of pimozide (IC 50 ~ 2muM) is lower than those of clinically approved UPS inhibitor 26S proteasome inhibitor Bortezomib (IC 50 ~ 100nM) (XREF_FIG and XREF_TABLE), and another UPS inhibitor VLX1570, which inhibited the DUBs UCHL5 and USP14 (IC 50 ~ 100nM) and was previously studied in clinical trials but terminated due to limiting toxicities (study identifier NCT02372240)."
