Description: EPZ015666, also known as GSK3235025, is a potent and selective and orally active PRMT5 inhibitor with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 22 nM and broad selectivity against a panel of other histone methyltransferases. Treatment of MCL cell lines with EPZ015666 led to inhibition of SmD3 methylation and cell death, with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. Oral dosing with EPZ015666 demonstrated dose-dependent antitumor activity in multiple MCL xenograft models. EPZ015666 represents a validated chemical probe for further study of PRMT5 biology and arginine methylation in cancer and other diseases.

More Info:

Biological target: EPZ015666 (GSK3235025) is an orally available inhibitor of PRMT5 with an IC50 of 22 nM.
In vitro activity: The impact of EPZ015666 on T-cell proliferation and viability was checked. EPZ015666 reduced T-cell proliferation with increasing concentrations. Cells were more sensitive to this inhibitor as suppression was already detectable at much lower doses, but even the highest tested concentration was less effective compared with MTA (Fig. 1E). Freshly isolated human CD8+ T cells were stimulated with autologous Mart-1 peptide-loaded mDCs in the presence or absence of 10 μmol/L EPZ015666. The frequency of Mart-1–specific CTLs was monitored by Mart-1 multimer staining over 18 days. No Mart-1+ cells could be detected in the presence of EPZ015666 after 18 days (Fig. 2D). In addition, there was a stronger reduction of Mart-1+ CTLs after 18 days compared with MTA-treated cells (Fig. 2B and E).

In vivo activity: EPZ015666 is orally bioavailable and amenable to in vivo studies. 21-d efficacy studies were performed in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice bearing subcutaneous Z-138 and Maver-1 xenografts, with twice-daily (BID) oral dosing on four dose groups: 25, 50, 100 and 200 mg per kilogram of body weight (mg kg−1). After 21 d of continuous dosing, animals were euthanized, and blood and tissues were analyzed to determine the relationship between methylmark pharmacodynamics and tumor-growth inhibition (TGI). EPZ015666 showed dose-dependent exposure and TGI after 21 d in both MCL models (Fig. 4c,d). Tumors in all EPZ015666 dose groups measured on day 21 showed statistically significant differences in weight, volume and tumor growth compared to vehicle-treated tumors. EPZ015666 was well tolerated in all three models, with minimal bodyweight loss in the 200 mg kg−1 dose group and no other clinical observations (Supplementary Fig. 16). To measure in vivo target inhibition, a highly quantitative SDMA ELISA was developed to allow for higher throughput and to complement the SDMA western blot. In the SDMA ELISA, Z-138 xenograft tumors collected on day 21 showed dose-dependent changes of >40% and >95% inhibition (>48% and >87% for Maver-1 tumors at day 21; >66% and >95% for Granta-519 tumors at day 18) of the methyl mark achieved at the lowest dose and highest dose, respectively (Fig. 4e,f and Supplementary Figs. 17–22).
