Synthetic sulfonamide anticancer drugs, including E7820, indisulam, tasisulam, and chloroquinoxaline sulfonamide, exhibit diverse mechanisms of action and therapeutic potential, functioning as molecular glue degraders. E7820 targets RBM39, affecting RNA splicing and angiogenesis by suppressing integrin α2. Phase I studies have demonstrated some stability in advanced solid malignancies; however, further efficacy studies are required. Indisulam causes G1 cell cycle arrest and delays the G1/S transition by modulating splicing through RBM39 degradation via DCAF15. Despite its limited initial efficacy, it shows promise in combination therapies, particularly for hematopoietic malignancies and gliomas. Tasisulam inhibits VEGF signaling, suppresses angiogenesis, and induces apoptosis. Although early trials indicated broad activity, safety concerns have halted its development. Chloroquinoxaline sulfonamide, initially investigated for cell cycle arrest and topoisomerase II inhibition, was discontinued owing to its limited efficacy and toxicity, despite promising initial results. Recent studies revealed the structural interaction of E7820 with DCAF15 and RBM39, although phase II trials on myeloid malignancies have shown limited efficacy. Indisulam is effective against glioblastoma and neuroblastoma, with potential synergy in combination therapies and metabolic disruption. Recent research on tasisulam reveals its potential in cancer therapy by targeting RBM39 degradation through DCAF15-mediated pathways. Understanding these mechanisms could lead to new treatments that affect alternative splicing and improve cancer therapies Overall, although these drugs exhibit promising mechanisms of action, further research is required to optimize their clinical efficacy and safety.
