Ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) plays a critical role in multiple signaling pathways, and many recent studies have proved its association with many diseases. The USP7-murine double minute 2-p53 pathway and the relationship between USP7 and the important immune protein PD-L1 in cancer progression and metastasis have been clarified. Recently, USP7 has emerged as a promising and potent therapeutic target for cancer and has attracted both academic and industrial attention. This review focuses on the structure, activity, and applications of USP7 inhibitors in cancer therapy. It also focuses on patents reported since 2014. Recently, USP7 has attracted considerable attention owing to its physiological and pathophysiological roles in cancer progression, and few studies have focused on the development of USP7 inhibitors. Compared with micromolar first-generation USP7 inhibitors, second-generation USP7 inhibitors exhibit higher potency (at nanomolar level for both USP7 and cell inhibitory activities), higher selectivity, and better pharmacokinetic properties, and they largely broaden the range of candidates for further clinical tests. However, there is still a need for a more precise description of compounds with receptors, the structural diversity of these compounds, and screening methods.
