SMARCA2 has been identified as a synthetic lethal target in SMARCA4 mutated tumors, however, homology between the two has hindered the development of selective SMARCA2 inhibitors. Here, the authors synthesize a proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) capable of SMARCA2 specific degradation and demonstrate its utility in the treatment of SMARCA4 mutated tumors.
