A small molecule antagonist compound having a toll-like receptor 3/7/8/9 inhibitory function and its use in inhibiting TLR7, TLR8, TLR9 and TLR3 are disclosed. A novel compound expressed by TAC5 and TAC5-a, TAC5-c, TAC5-d or TAC5-e which are derivatives thereof not only prevents TNF secretion, NFkB activation, IkB degradation and MAPKs phosphorylation induced by poly(I:C) (TLR3 agonist), IMQ (TLR7 agonist), CL075 (TLR7/8 agonist), R848 (TLR7/8 agonist), TL8 (TLR8 agonist) or CpG ODN (TLR9 agonist), but also inhibits generation of inflammatory cytokine, and thus is highly advantageous for preventive or therapeutic use for TLR3/7/8/9-related autoimmune diseases and inflammatory diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis and the like.

Described herein are pyridine compounds of Formula (XIII) that are useful in treating a TYK2-mediated disorder. In some embodiments, the TYK2-mediated disorder is an autoimmune disorder, an inflammatory disorder, a proliferative disorder, an endocrine disorder, a neurological disorder, or a disorder associated with transplantation ##STR00001##

The present invention relates to the use of 5-Fluoro-4-(4-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-N-{4-[(S-methylsulfonimidoyl)methyl]pyridin-2-yl}pyridin-2-amine (compound A), more particularly (+)5-Fluoro-4-(4-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-N-{4-[(S-methylsulfonimidoyl)methyl]pyridin-2-yl}pyridin-2-amine (compound A), for treating diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), especially in germinal-centre B-cell type of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and especially in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma which cells have an amplification or translocation of the MYC gene and/or BCL2 gene and/or an overexpression of MYC and/or BCL2.

The present disclosure relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility to degrade (and inhibit) Androgen Receptor. In particular, the present disclosure is directed to compounds, which contain on one end a cereblon ligand which binds to the E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds Androgen Receptor, such that Androgen Receptor is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of Androgen Receptor. The present disclosure exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with compounds according to the present disclosure, consistent with the degradation/inhibition of Androgen Receptor.

It has been demonstrated that certain compounds bind to TNF and stabilise a conformation of trimeric TNF that binds to the TNF receptor. Accordingly, these compounds can be used as modulators of TNF. A new assay for identifying compounds with this mechanism of action is also disclosed.
