UCT-000445 was well tolerated in vivo and using a CD-1 nude mouse model we found that while reticulocyte proliferation (a surrogate marker for bone marrow cytopenias) is abrogated by continuous treatment with UCT-000445, the use of intermittent dosing schedules overcomes this effect, while yielding equivalent efficacy. Our data with UCT-000445 indicate that SAM-competitive PRMT5 inhibitors may represent a novel and compelling therapeutic strategy for the treatment of multiple solid tumors.
