T-3775440 HCl is an irreversible LSD1 inhibitor that is highly selective for LSD1 relative to other monoamine oxidases (e.g., MAO-A and MAO-B), with an IC50 value of 2.1 nmol/L.
T-3775440 treatment enforces transdifferentiation of erythroid/megakaryocytic lineages into granulomonocytic-like lineage cells. T-3775440 disrupts the interaction between LSD1 and growth factor-independent 1B (GFI1B), a transcription factor critical for the differentiation processes of erythroid and megakaryocytic lineage cells. 48-hour T-3775440 treatment induces cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis in AEL (TF-1a, HEL92.1.7) and AMKL cell lines (CMK11-5, M07e). T-3775440 treatment increases the G1 and sub-G1 phase populations in TF-1a and CMK11-5 cells[1].
T-3775440 exerts tumor growth suppression in in vivo mouse xenograft models of AML. In mice, T-3775440 treatment results in a transient reduction in platelets, followed by a significant rebound. There is no obvious effect on red blood cell counts following a single administration. T-3775440 also exhibits potent antitumor effects in an additional AEL model of HEL 92.1.7 and an AMKL model of CMK11-5, possessing profound anti-AEL and anti-AMKL activity[1].
