Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1)

Bomedemstat increases p53 expression and methylation while concurrently inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis in Jak2V617F cells[1]. Cell cycle arrest and enhanced survival are caused by bomedemstat (50 nM-1 μM; 96 h), which also promotes apoptosis via BCL-XL and PUMA in a TP53-dependent manner[1].

Treatment with bomedemstat (oral gavage; 45 mg/kg; once daily; 56 d) improves or returns blood cell counts to normal, decreases spleen sizes, reestablishes normal splenic architecture, and lessens fibrosis in the bone marrow[1].

Apoptosis Analysis[1]
Cell Types: SET-2 cells
Tested Concentrations: 50 nM, 100 nM, and 1 μM
Incubation Duration: 96 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: diminished levels of the antiapoptotic protein BCL-XL and increased levels of the pro-apoptotic protein PUMA.

Animal/Disease Models: Mx-Jak2V617F mice[1]
Doses: 45 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); 45 mg/kg; one time/day; 56 days
Experimental Results: decreased splenomegaly Dramatically with a few treated mice normalizing their spleen weight, the 56-day course led to partial restoration of lymph follicles and spleen architecture by histological examination.

IMG-7289 is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03136185 (IMG-7289 in Patients With Myelofibrosis).

Bomedemstat is an orally available, irreversible inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, bomedemstat binds to and inhibits LSD1, a demethylase that suppresses the expression of target genes by converting the di- and mono-methylated forms of lysine at position 4 of histone H3 (H3K4) to mono- and unmethylated H3K4. LSD1 inhibition enhances H3K4 methylation and increases the expression of tumor suppressor genes. In addition, LSD1 demethylates mono- or di-methylated H3K9 which increases gene expression of tumor promoting genes; thus, inhibition of LSD1 also promotes H3K9 methylation and decreases transcription of these genes. Altogether, this may lead to an inhibition of cell growth in LSD1-overexpressing tumor cells. LSD1, an enzyme belonging to the flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent amine oxidase family is overexpressed in certain tumor cells and plays a key role in the regulation of gene expression, tumor cell growth and survival.

Despite recent advances, the myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are attended by considerable morbidity and mortality. Janus kinase (Jak) inhibitors such as ruxolitinib manage symptoms but do not substantially change the natural history of the disease. In this report, we show the effects of IMG-7289, an irreversible inhibitor of the epigenetically active lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) in mouse models of MPN. Once-daily treatment with IMG-7289 normalized or improved blood cell counts, reduced spleen volumes, restored normal splenic architecture, and reduced bone marrow fibrosis. Most importantly, LSD1 inhibition lowered mutant allele burden and improved survival. IMG-7289 selectively inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of JAK2 V617F cells by concomitantly increasing expression and methylation of p53, and, independently, the pro-apoptotic factor PUMA and by decreasing the levels of its antiapoptotic antagonist BCLXL. These data provide a molecular understanding of the disease-modifying activity of the LSD1 inhibitor IMG-7289 that is currently undergoing clinical evaluation in patients with high-risk myelofibrosis. Moreover, low doses of IMG-7289 and ruxolitinib synergize in normalizing the MPN phenotype in mice, offering a rationale for investigating combination therapy.[1]

Histone demethylase LSD1 plays key roles during carcinogenesis, targeting LSD1 is becoming an emerging option for the treatment of cancers. Numerous LSD1 inhibitors have been reported to date, some of them such as TCP, ORY-1001, GSK-2879552, IMG-7289, INCB059872, CC-90011, and ORY-2001 currently undergo clinical assessment for cancer therapy, particularly for small lung cancer cells (SCLC) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This review is to provide a comprehensive overview of LSD1 inhibitors in clinical trials including molecular mechanistic studies, clinical efficacy, adverse drug reactions, and PD/PK studies and offer prospects in this field.[2]
