The histone methyltransferase mixed-lineage-leukemia-1 drives T cell phenotype via notch signaling in diabetic tissue repair. (PubMed, JCI Insight)
Treatment of diabetic wound CD4T cells with a small molecule inhibitor of MLL1 (MI-2) yielded a significant reduction in CD4+TH17 cells and IL17A. This is the first study to identify the MLL1-mediated mechanisms responsible for regulating the TH17/Treg balance in normal and diabetic wounds and define the complex role of Notch signaling in CD4+T cells in wounds, where increased or decreased Notch signaling both result in pathologic wound repair. Therapeutic targeting of MLL1 in diabetic CD4+TH cells may decrease pathologic inflammation through regulation of CD4+T cell differentiation.

Foundation Medicine Partners with Syndax to Develop a Companion Diagnostic in Hematology and Support Efforts to Pursue Regulatory Approval for an Assay Based on the FoundationOne Heme Platform (Businesswire)
"Foundation Medicine, Inc. today announced a collaboration with Syndax Pharmaceuticals...to develop a companion diagnostic for the identification of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients harboring an NPM1 mutation. As part of the collaboration, Syndax will also support Foundation Medicine’s efforts to pursue regulatory approval of an assay based on the FoundationOne Heme platform....If approved, the assay could be the first next-generation sequencing companion diagnostic to detect genomic alterations in hematologic neoplasms, including enhancing the identification of patients with NPM1 mutations who may be eligible for revumenib."

Revumenib for patients with acute leukemia: a new tool for differentiation therapy. (PubMed, Haematologica)
It will focus on the pathophysiology of leukemias sensitive to menin inhibition, delineation of how this understanding led to targeted drug development, and data from clinical trials. The important discovery of resistance mechanisms will also be explored, as well as future directions in using menin inhibitors for treating leukemia.

Distinct Responses to Menin Inhibition and Synergy with DOT1L Inhibition in KMT2A-Rearranged Acute Lymphoblastic and Myeloid Leukemia. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Finally, we demonstrate significant synergy between revumenib and the DOT1L inhibitor pinometostat in KMT2A-rearranged ALL, suggesting that such drug combinations represent a potent therapeutic strategy for these patients. Collectively, our findings underscore the complexity of resistance mechanisms and advocate for precise patient stratification to optimize the use of menin inhibitors in KMT2A-rearranged acute leukemia.

Synergistic effects of the KDM4C inhibitor SD70 and the menin inhibitor MI-503 against MLL::AF9-driven acute myeloid leukaemia. (PubMed, Br J Haematol)
Differential gene expression analysis by RNA-seq following combined pharmacological inhibition of SD70 and MI-503 revealed changes in numerous genes, with MYC target genes being the most significantly downregulated. Taken together, these data provide preclinical evidence that the combination of SD70 and MI-503 is a potential dual-targeted therapy for MLL::AF9 AML.

A 2024 Update on Menin Inhibitors. A New Class of Target Agents against KMT2A-Rearranged and NPM1-Mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia. (PubMed, Hematol Rep)
To date, this new class of drugs has been tested in phase I and II clinical trials, both alone and in combination with synergistic drugs showing promising results in terms of response rates and safety in heavily pre-treated acute leukemia patients. In this brief review, we summarize the key findings on menin inhibitors, focusing on the mechanism of action and preliminary clinical data on the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia with this promising new class of agents, particularly revumenib and ziftomenib.

Arachidonic acid released by PIK3CA mutant tumor cells triggers malignant transformation of colonic epithelium by inducing chromatin remodeling. (PubMed, Cell Rep Med)
Finally, the combination of VTP50469, an inhibitor of the Menin-MLL interaction, and alpelisib synergistically represses PDX tumors harboring PIK3CA mutations. Together, these findings unveil the metabolic link between PIK3CA mutant tumor cells and the IECs, highlighting AA as the potential target for the treatment of patients with CRC harboring PIK3CA mutations.
