Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

EED226 is a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable EED inhibitor. induces robust and sustained tumor regression in EZH2MUT preclinical DLBCL model. EED226 induces a conformational change upon binding EED, leading to loss of PRC2 activity. EED226 shows similar activity to SAM-competitive inhibitors in blocking H3K27 methylation of PRC2 target genes and inducing regression of human lymphoma xenograft tumors. Interestingly, EED226 also effectively inhibits PRC2 containing a mutant EZH2 protein resistant to SAM-competitive inhibitors. EED226 inhibits PRC2 activity via an allosteric mechanism and offers an opportunity for treatment of PRC2-dependent cancers. demonstrated very impressive antitumor activities in mouse xenograft model.

More Info
Overexpression and somatic heterozygous mutations of EZH2, the catalytic subunit of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), are associated with several tumor types. EZH2 inhibitor, EPZ-6438 (tazemetostat), demonstrated clinical efficacy in patients with acceptable safety profile as monotherapy. EED, another subunit of PRC2 complex, is essential for its histone methyltransferase activity through direct binding to trimethylated lysine 27 on histone 3 (H3K27Me3).
Biological target:
EED226 is a polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) inhibitor, which binds to the K27me3-pocket on embryonic ectoderm development (EED).
In vitro activity:
The basal expression of PRC2-related proteins was determined in HK1, C17C, NPC43 and C666-1 cell lines, with an immortalized epithelial nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line NP69 serving as a control. EZH2 and EED are expressed in all 4 NPC cell lines, while the expression levels of EZH2 and EED in EBV-positive NPC cell lines (C17C, NPC43 and C666-1) appeared to be higher than in the EBV-negative NPC cell lines (HK1) and NP69 cells (Figure 1C). Following treatment with EED226 at 1 μM, 5 μM and 10 μM for up to 72 hours, H3K27me3 expression was significantly reduced in both C666-1 and HK1 cell lines in a dose-response relationship (Figure 1D). EED226 could significantly reduce EED expression, but the effect on EZH2 was relatively modest (Figure 1E). Using proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) as an indicator, EED226 at low concentrations could inhibit cellular proliferation in C666-1 cells, while higher concentrations of EED226 were needed to inhibit proliferation in HK1 cells (Figure 1F).

In vivo activity:
To further assess the effect of PRC2 inhibition by EED226 in vivo, 4 and 40 mg/kg twice-daily doses of EED226 were given to mice orally for a longer period of time, and tumor volume was measured. Both 4 and 40 mg/kg doses were well tolerated, and the 40 mg/kg dose induced complete tumor regression when dosed for 32 d (Fig. 4f,g and Supplementary Fig. 4c). In the 4 mg/kg bid dose group, tumor growth was also inhibited and reached stasis at the end of the dosing period (Fig. 4f). Thus, EED226 clearly demonstrates a dose-dependent efficacy in the mouse xenograph study. Reference: Nat Chem Biol. 2017 Apr;13(4):381-388. https://www.nature.com/articles/nchembio.2304
