COMBINATION THERAPIES
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel combinations comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a menin-mixed-lineage leukemia 1 (menin-MLL) inhibitor of Formula (I) , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a solvate thereof; and a therapeutically effective amount of a B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) inhibitor; and optionally, a therapeutically effective amount of at least one other antineoplastic agent; as well as to methods for treating a subject who has been diagnosed with a hematopoietic disorder.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Of the 10 million cancer deaths recorded by GLOBOCAN in 2020, 7.1%are attributed to hematopoietic disorders. Accordingly, new treatment modalities are urgently needed for hematopoietic disorders, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as further detailed below.
AML is a common hematological malignancy whose incidence rises from 3: 100,000 in young adults to greater than 20: 100,000 in older adults. For patients <60 years of age, overall survival (OS) is 40 to 50%, but is only 5%for patients >60 years of age. The majority of newly diagnosed patients with AML are over the age of 60. In this patient population, standard induction chemotherapy is often not an option due to increased treatment-related mortality as a result of age and co-morbidities. Standard of care for AML patients unfit for combination chemotherapy is treatment with hypomethylating agents (azacitidine or decitabine) or low dose cytarabine. Despite these frontline treatments, median OS is only about 10 months. In all types of AML, disease relapse is common despite an initial therapeutic response and is the most common reason for death. Standard chemotherapy and allogeneic stem cell transplant (when used) often fail to eradicate all tumor-propagating cells and select for chemotherapy-resistant leukemia-propagating subclones. Patients refractory to salvage therapy are treated palliatively, as current treatment options are extremely limited. These patients have a median survival of 2 months. In addition, patients with newly diagnosed intermediate or higher-risk MDS and those who relapse after standard care have a poor prognosis and high risk of progression to AML. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new treatment modalities for relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML and MDS patients, newly diagnosed AML patients ineligible for induction chemotherapy based on age and co-morbidities, and newly diagnosed intermediate/high/very high risk MDS patients.
ALL is a hematologic malignancy propagated by impaired differentiation, proliferation, and accumulation of lymphoid progenitor cells in the bone marrow and/or extramedullary sites. ALL represents 12%of all leukemia cases and is the most common childhood acute leukemia, with a worldwide incidence projected to be 1 to 4.75 per 100,000 people. ALL represents about 20%of adult leukemias. Despite high rates of complete remission (CR) (80%to 90%) with current therapies, the majority of adult patients with ALL relapse. The 5-year overall survival rate is approximately 30 to 40%in adults and elderly patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new treatment modalities for relapsed/refractory ALL particularly in adult and especially elderly patients.

The term “comprising” as used herein, encompasses the terms "consisting of" and "consisting essentially of. ” All embodiments described herein using the term “comprising” are also applicable for embodiments of the invention wherein the term “comprising” is limited to “consisting of. ” Likewise, all embodiments described herein using the term” comprising” are also applicable for embodiments of the invention wherein the term “comprising” is limited to “consisting essentially of. ”
The term “subject” as used herein, refers to an animal, preferably a mammal (e.g., cat, dog, primate or human) , more preferably a human, who is or has been the object of treatment, observation or experiment.
The term “therapeutically effective amount” as used herein, means that amount of active compound or pharmaceutical agent that elicits the biological or medicinal response in a tissue system, animal or human that is being sought by a researcher, veterinarian, medicinal doctor or other clinician, which includes alleviation or reversal of the symptoms of the disease or disorder being treated.
The term “composition” is intended to encompass a product including the specified ingredients in the specified amounts, as well as any product which results, directly or indirectly, from combinations of the specified ingredients in the specified amounts.
The terms “treatment” and “treating, ” as used herein, are intended to refer to all processes wherein there may be a slowing, interrupting, arresting or stopping of the progression of a disorder, or amelioration of one or more symptoms thereof, but does not necessarily indicate a total elimination of all symptoms.
As used herein, any chemical formula with bonds shown only as solid lines and not as solid wedged or hashed wedged bonds, or otherwise indicated as having a particular configuration (e.g., R, S) around one or more atoms, contemplates each possible stereoisomer, or mixture of two or more stereoisomers.
Hereinbefore and hereinafter, the term “compound (s) of Formula (I) ” is meant to include the tautomers thereof and the stereoisomeric forms thereof.
Hereinbefore and hereinafter, the term “compound (s) of Formula (Z) ” is meant to include the tautomers thereof and the stereoisomeric forms thereof.
The terms “stereoisomers” , “stereoisomeric forms” or “stereochemically isomeric forms” hereinbefore or hereinafter are used interchangeably.
The invention includes all stereoisomers of the compounds of the invention either as a pure stereoisomer or as a mixture of two or more stereoisomers.
Enantiomers are stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. A 1: 1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a racemate or racemic mixture.
Atropisomers (or atropoisomers) are stereoisomers which have a particular spatial configuration, resulting from a restricted rotation about a single bond, due to large steric hindrance. All atropisomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
Diastereomers (or diastereoisomers) are stereoisomers that are not enantiomers, i.e., they are not related as mirror images. If a compound contains a double bond, the substituents may be in the E or the Z configuration.
Substituents on bivalent cyclic saturated or partially saturated radicals may have either the cis-or trans-configuration; for example, if a compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the substituents may be in the cis or trans configuration.
Therefore, the invention includes enantiomers, atropisomers, diastereomers, racemates, E isomers, Z isomers, cis isomers, trans isomers and mixtures thereof, whenever chemically possible.
The meaning of all those terms, i.e., enantiomers, atropisomers, diastereomers, racemates, E isomers, Z isomers, cis isomers, trans isomers and mixtures thereof are known to the skilled person.
The absolute configuration is specified according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system. The configuration at an asymmetric atom is specified by either R or S. Resolved stereoisomers whose absolute configuration is not known can be designated by (+) or (-) depending on the direction in which they rotate plane polarized light. For instance, resolved enantiomers whose absolute configuration is not known can be designated by (+) or (-) depending on the direction in which they rotate plane polarized light.
When a specific stereoisomer is identified, this means that said stereoisomer is substantially free, i.e., associated with less than 50%, preferably less than 20%, more preferably less than 10%, even more preferably less than 5%, in particular less than 2%and most preferably less than 1%, of the other stereoisomers. Thus, when a compound of Formula (I) is for instance specified as (R) , this means that the compound is substantially free of the (S) isomer; when a compound of Formula (I) is for instance specified as E, this means that the compound is substantially free of the Z isomer; when a compound of Formula (I) is for instance specified as cis, this means that the compound is substantially free of the trans isomer.
Some of the compounds according to Formula (I) may also exist in their tautomeric form. Such forms in so far as they may exist, although not explicitly indicated in the above Formula (I) are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention. It follows that a single compound may exist in both stereoisomeric and tautomeric form.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include acid addition salts and base addition salts. Such salts may be formed by conventional means, for example by reaction of a free acid or a free base form with one or more equivalents of an appropriate base or acid, optionally in a solvent, or in a medium in which the salt is insoluble, followed by removal of said solvent, or said medium, using standard techniques (e.g., in vacuo, by freeze-drying or by filtration) . Salts may also be prepared by exchanging a counter-ion of a compound of the invention in the form of a salt with another counter-ion, for example using a suitable ion exchange resin.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts as mentioned hereinabove or hereinafter are meant to comprise the therapeutically active non-toxic acid and base salt forms which the compounds of Formula (I) and solvates thereof, are able to form.
Appropriate acids comprise, for example, inorganic acids such as hydrohalic acids, e.g., hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric and the like acids; or organic acids such as, for example, acetic, propanoic, hydroxyacetic, lactic, pyruvic, oxalic (i.e., ethanedioic) , malonic, succinic (i.e., butanedioic acid) , maleic, fumaric, malic, tartaric, citric, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, cyclamic, salicylic, p-aminosalicylic, pamoic and the like acids. Conversely said salt forms can be converted by treatment with an appropriate base into the free base form.
The compounds of Formula (I) and solvates thereof containing an acidic proton may also be converted into their non-toxic metal or amine salt forms by treatment with appropriate organic and inorganic bases.
Appropriate base salt forms comprise, for example, the ammonium salts, the alkali and earth alkaline metal salts, e.g., the lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium, magnesium, calcium salts and the like, salts with organic bases, e.g., primary, secondary and tertiary aliphatic and aromatic amines such as methylamine, ethylamine, propylamine, isopropylamine, the four butylamine isomers, dimethylamine, diethylamine, diethanolamine, dipropylamine, diisopropylamine, di-n-butylamine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, morpholine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, quinuclidine, pyridine, quinoline and isoquinoline; the benzathine, N-methyl-D-glucamine, hydrabamine salts, and salts with amino acids such as, for example, arginine, lysine and the like. Conversely the salt form can be converted by treatment with acid into the free acid form.
The term “prodrug” includes any compound that, following oral or parenteral administration, in particular oral administration, is metabolised in vivo to a (more) active form in an experimentally-detectable amount, and within a predetermined time (e.g., within a dosing interval of between 0.5 and 24 hours, or e.g., within a dosing interval of between 6 and 24 hours (i.e., once to four times daily) ) . For the avoidance of doubt, the term “parenteral” administration includes all forms of administration other than oral administration, in particular intravenous (IV) , intramuscular (IM) , and subcutaneous (SC) injection.
Prodrugs may be prepared by modifying functional groups present on a compound in such a way that the modifications are cleaved in vivo when such prodrug is administered to a mammalian subject. The modifications typically are achieved by synthesizing the parent compound with a prodrug substituent. In general, prodrugs include compounds wherein a hydroxyl, amino, sulfhydryl, carboxy or carbonyl group is bonded to any group that may be cleaved in vivo to regenerate the free hydroxyl, amino, sulfhydryl, carboxy or carbonyl group, respectively.
Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, esters and carbamates of hydroxy functional groups, esters groups of carboxyl functional groups, N-acyl derivatives and N-Mannich bases. General information on prodrugs may be found e.g., in Bundegaard, H. “Design of Prodrugs” p. l-92, Elesevier, New York-Oxford (1985) .
The term solvate comprises the solvent addition forms as well as the salts thereof, which the compounds of Formula (I) are able to form. Examples of such solvent addition forms are e.g., hydrates, alcoholates and the like.
The compounds of the invention as prepared in the processes described below may be synthesized in the form of mixtures of enantiomers, in particular racemic mixtures of enantiomers, that can be separated from one another following art-known resolution procedures. A manner of separating the enantiomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) , and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and solvates thereof, involves liquid chromatography using a chiral stationary phase. Said pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be derived from the corresponding pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the appropriate starting materials, provided that the reaction occurs stereospecifically. Preferably if a specific stereoisomer is desired, said compound would be synthesized by stereospecific methods of preparation. These methods will advantageously employ enantiomerically pure starting materials.
The term "enantiomerically pure" as used herein means that the product contains at least 80%by weight of one enantiomer and 20%by weight or less of the other enantiomer. Preferably the product contains at least 90%by weight of one enantiomer and 10%by weight or less of the other enantiomer. In the most preferred embodiment the term "enantiomerically pure" means that the composition contains at least 99%by weight of one enantiomer and 1%or less of the other enantiomer.
The present invention also embraces isotopically-labeled compounds which are identical to those recited herein, but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature (or the most abundant one found in nature) .
All isotopes and isotopic mixtures of any particular atom or element as specified herein are contemplated within the scope of the invention, either naturally occurring or synthetically produced, either with natural abundance or in an isotopically enriched form. Exemplary isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, chlorine and iodine, such as

2H,
3H,
11C,
13C and
18F. Preferably, the isotope is selected from the group of
2H,

13C-enriched compounds are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention. In particular, deuterated compounds are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
Certain isotopically-labeled compounds (e.g., those labeled with
3H and
14C) may be useful for example in substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (
3H) and carbon-l4 (
14C) isotopes are useful for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,
2H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Positron emitting isotopes such as
15O,
13N,
11C and
18F are useful for positron emission tomography (PET) studies. PET imaging in cancer finds utility in helping locate and identify tumors, stage the disease and determine suitable treatment. Human cancer cells overexpress many receptors or proteins that are potential disease-specific molecular targets. Radiolabelled tracers that bind with high affinity and specificity to such receptors or proteins on tumor cells have great potential for diagnostic imaging and targeted radionuclide therapy (Charron, Carlie L. et al. Tetrahedron Lett. 2016, 57 (37) , 4119-4127) . Additionally, target-specific PET radiotracers may be used as biomarkers to examine and evaluate pathology, by for example, measuring target expression and treatment response (Austin R. et al. Cancer Letters (2016) , doi: 10.1016/j. canlet. 2016.05.008) .

In the context of Formula (Z) , the following definitions apply:
The term "alkenyl" includes unsaturated aliphatic groups analogous in length and possible substitution to the alkyls described above, but that contain at least one double bond. For example, the term "alkenyl" includes straight-chain alkenyl groups (e.g., ethenyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, hexenyl, heptenyl, octenyl, nonenyl, decenyl, etc. ) . The term alkenyl further includes alkenyl groups which include oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur or phosphorous atoms replacing one or more carbons of the hydrocarbon backbone. In certain embodiments, a straight chain or branched chain alkenyl group has 6 or fewer carbon atoms in its backbone (e.g., C
2-6 for straight chain, C
3-6 for branched chain) .
The term “haloalkyl” refers to a straight-or branched-chain alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the chain optionally substituting hydrogens with halogens. The term “C
1-
6 haloalkyl” as used here refers to a straight-or branched-chain alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the chain, optionally substituting hydrogens with halogens. The term “C
1-4 haloalkyl” as used here refers to a straight-or branched-chain alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the chain, optionally substituting hydrogens with halogens. Examples of “haloalkyl” groups include trifluoromethyl (CF
3) , difluoromethyl (CF
2H) , monofluoromethyl (CH
2F) , pentafluoroethyl (CF
2CF
3) , tetrafluoroethyl (CHFCF
3) , monofluoroethyl (CH
2CH
2F) , trifluoroethyl (CH
2CF
3) , tetrafluorotrifluoromethylethyl (CF (CF
3)
2) , and groups that in light of the ordinary skill in the art and the teachings provided herein would be considered equivalent to any one of the foregoing examples.
The term "haloalkenyl" includes unsaturated aliphatic groups analogous in length and possible substitution to the alkyls described above, but that contain at least one double bond and having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the chain optionally substituting hydrogens with halogens.
The term “aryl” refers to a monocyclic, aromatic carbocycle (ring structure having ring atoms that are all carbon) having 6 atoms per ring. (Carbon atoms in the aryl groups are sp2 hybridized. )
The term “heteroaryl” refers to a monocyclic or fused bicyclic heterocycle (ring structure having ring atoms selected from carbon atoms and up to four heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur) having from 3 to 9 ring atoms per heterocycle. Illustrative examples of heteroaryl groups include the following entities, in the form of properly bonded moieties:
Those skilled in the art will recognize that the species listed or illustrated above are not exhaustive, and that additional species within the scope of these defined terms may also be selected.
The term “variable point of attachment” means that a group is allowed to be attached at more than one alternative position in a structure. The attachment will always replace a hydrogen atom on one of the ring atoms. In other words, all permutations of bonding are represented by the single diagram, as shown in the illustrations below.

It will be appreciated that where appropriate functional groups exist, compounds of various formulae or any intermediates used in their preparation may be further derivatized by one or more standard synthetic methods employing condensation, substitution, oxidation, reduction, or cleavage reactions. Particular substitution approaches include conventional alkylation, arylation, heteroarylation, acylation, sulfonylation, halogenation, nitration, formylation and coupling procedures.
The compounds of Formula (I) may be synthesized in the form of racemic mixtures of enantiomers which can be separated from one another following art-known resolution procedures. The racemic compounds of Formula (I) containing a basic nitrogen atom may be converted into the corresponding diastereomeric salt forms by reaction with a suitable chiral acid. Said diastereomeric salt forms are subsequently separated, for example, by selective or fractional crystallization and the enantiomers are liberated therefrom by alkali. An alternative manner of separating the enantiomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) involves liquid chromatography using a chiral stationary phase. Said pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be derived from the corresponding pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the appropriate starting materials, provided that the reaction occurs stereospecifically.
In the preparation of compounds of Formula (I) , protection of remote functionality (e.g., primary or secondary amine) of intermediates may be necessary. The need for such protection will vary depending on the nature of the remote functionality and the conditions of the preparation methods. Suitable amino-protecting groups (NH-Pg) include acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) , benzyloxycarbonyl (CBz) and 9-fluorenyl-methyleneoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) . The need for such protection is readily determined by one skilled in the art. For a general description of protecting groups and their use, see T.W. Greene and P.G.M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 4th ed., Wiley, Hoboken, New Jersey, 2007. Several methods for preparing the compounds of Formula (I) are illustrated in the following examples. Unless otherwise noted, all starting materials were obtained from commercial suppliers and used without further purification, or alternatively can be synthesized by a skilled person by using well-known methods.

PHARMACOLOGICAL PART
1) Menin/MLL Homogenous Time-Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF) Assay
To an untreated, white 384-well microtiter plate was added 40 nL 200X test compound in DMSO and 4 μL 2X terbium chelate-labeled menin (vide infra for preparation) in assay buffer (40 mM Tris·HCl, pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT (dithiothreitol) and 0.05%Pluronic F-127) . After incubation of test compound and terbium chelate-labeled menin for 30 min at ambient temperature, 4 μL 2X FITC-MBM1 peptide (FITC-β-alanine-SARWRFPARPGT-NH
2) ( “FITC” means fluorescein isothiocyanate) in assay buffer was added, the microtiter plate centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 min and the assay mixtures incubated for 15 min at ambient temperature. The relative amount of menin·FITC-MBM1 complex present in an assay mixture is determined by measuring the homogenous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) of the terbium/FITC donor /acceptor fluorophore pair using an EnVision microplate reader (ex. 337 nm/terbium em. 490 nm/FITC em. 520 nm) at ambient temperature. The degree of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (the HTRF value) is expressed as the ratio of the fluorescence emission intensities of the FITC and terbium fluorophores (F
em 520 nm/F
em 490 nm) . The final concentrations of reagents in the binding assay are 200 pM terbium chelate-labeled menin, 75 nM FITC-MBM1 peptide and 0.5%DMSO in assay buffer. Dose-response titrations of test compounds are conducted using an 11 point, four-fold serial dilution scheme, starting typically at 10 μM.
Compound potencies were determined by first calculating %inhibition at each compound concentration according to equation 1:
%inhibition = ( (HC -LC) - (HTRF
compound -LC) ) / (HC -LC) ) *100 (Eqn 1)
where LC and HC are the HTRF values of the assay in the presence or absence of a saturating concentration of a compound that competes with FITC-MBM1 for binding to menin, and HTRF
compound is the measured HTRF value in the presence of the test compound. HC and LC HTRF values represent an average of at least 10 replicates per plate. For each test compound, %inhibition values were plotted vs. the logarithm of the test compound concentration, and the IC
50 value derived from fitting these data to equation 2:
%inhibition = Bottom + (Top-Bottom) / (1+10^ ( (logIC
50-log [cmpd] ) *h) ) (Eqn 2)
where Bottom and Top are the lower and upper asymptotes of the dose-response curve, respectively, IC
50 is the concentration of compound that yields 50%inhibition of signal and h is the Hill coefficient.
Preparation of Terbium cryptate labeling of Menin: Menin (a. a1-610-6xhis tag, 2.3 mg/mL in 20mM Hepes (2- [4- (2-Hydroxyethyl) -1-piperazinyl] ethane sulfonic acid) , 80 mM NaCl, 5mM DTT (Dithiothreitol) , pH 7.5) was labeled with terbium cryptate as follows. 200 μg of Menin was buffer exchanged into 1x Hepes buffer. 6.67 μM Menin was incubated with 8-fold molar excess NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide) -terbium cryptate for 40 minutes at room temperature. Half of the labeled protein was purified away from free label by running the reaction over a NAP5 column with elution buffer (0.1M Hepes, pH 7 + 0.1%BSA (bovine serum albumin) ) . The other half was eluted with 0.1M phosphate buffered saline (PBS) , pH7. 400 μl of eluent was collected for each, aliquoted and frozen at -80℃. The final concentration of terbium-labeled Menin protein was 115 μg/mL in Hepes buffer and 85 μg/mL in PBS buffer, respectively.

2a) Proliferation Assay
The anti-proliferative effect of menin/MLL protein/protein interaction inhibitor test compounds was assessed in human leukemia cell lines. The cell line MOLM-14 harbors a MLL translocation and expresses the MLL fusion protein MLL-AF9, respectively, as well as the wildtype protein from the second allele. OCI-AML3 cells that carry the NPM1c gene mutation were also tested. MLL rearranged cell lines (e.g., MOLM-14) and NPM1c mutated cell lines exhibit stem cell-like elevated HOXA/MEIS1 gene expression signatures. KO-52 was used as a control cell line containing two MLL (KMT2A) wildtype alleles in order to exclude compounds that display general cytotoxic effects.
MOLM-14 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 (Sigma Aldrich) supplemented with 10%heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (HyClone) , 2 mM L-glutamine (Sigma Aldrich) and 50μg/ml gentamycin (Gibco) . KO-52 and OCI-AML3 cell lines were propagated in alpha-MEM (Sigma Aldrich) supplemented with 20%heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (HyClone) , 2 mM L-glutamine (Sigma Aldrich) and 50 μg/ml gentamycin (Gibco) . Cells were kept at 0.3 –2.5 million cells per ml during culturing and passage numbers did not exceed 20.
In order to assess the anti-proliferative effects, 200 MOLM-14 cells, 200 OCI-AML3 cells or 300 KO-52 cells were seeded in 200 μl media per well in 96-well round bottom, ultra-low attachment plates (Costar, catalogue number 7007) . Cell seeding numbers were chosen based on growth curves to ensure linear growth throughout the experiment. Test compounds were added at different concentrations and the DMSO content was normalized to 0.3%. Cells were incubated for 8 days at 37℃ and 5%CO
2. Spheroid like growth was measured in real-time by live-cell imaging (IncuCyteZOOM, Essenbio, 4x objective) acquiring images at day 8. Confluence (%) as a measure of spheroid size was determined using an integrated analysis tool.
In order to determine the effect of the test compounds over time, the confluence in each well as a measure of spheroid size, was calculated. Confluence of the highest dose of a reference compound was used as baseline for the LC (Low control) and the confluence of DMSO treated cells was used as 0%cytotoxicity (High Control, HC) .
Absolute IC
50 values were calculated as percent change in confluence as follows:
LC = Low Control: cells treated with e.g., 1 μM of the cytotoxic agent staurosporin, or e.g., cells treated with a high concentration of an alternative reference compound;
HC = High Control: Mean confluence (%) (DMSO treated cells) ;
%Effect = 100 - (100* (Sample-LC) / (HC-LC) ) ; and
GraphPad Prism (version 7.00) was used to calculate the IC
50. Dose-response equation was used for the plot of %Effect vs Log10 compound concentration with a variable slope and fixing the maximum to 100%and the minimum to 0%.
2b) MEIS1 mRNA Expression Assay
MEIS1 mRNA expression upon treatment of compound was examined by Quantigene Singleplex assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific) . This technology allows for direct quantification of mRNA targets using probes hybridizing to defined target sequences of interest and the signal is detected using a Multimode plate reader Envision (PerkinElmer) . The MOLM-14 cell line was used for this experiment. Cells were plated in 96-well plates at 3,750 cells/well in the presence of increasing concentrations of compounds. After incubation of 48 hours with compounds, cells were lysed in lysis buffer and incubated for 45 minutes at 55℃. Cell lysates were mixed with human MEIS1 specific capture probe or human RPL28 (Ribosomal Protein L28) specific probe as a normalization control, as well as blocking probes. Cell lysates were then transferred to the custom assay hybridization plate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and incubated for 18 to 22 hours at 55℃. Subsequently, plates were washed to remove unbound materials followed by sequential addition of preamplifiers, amplifiers, and label probe. Signals (= gene counts) were measured with a Multimode plate reader Envision. IC
50s were calculated by dose-response modelling using appropriate software. For all non-housekeeper genes response equal counts corrected for background and relative expression. For each sample, each test gene signal (background subtracted) was divided by the normalization gene signal (RPL28: background subtracted) . Fold changes were calculated by dividing the normalized values for the treated samples by the normalized values for the DMSO treated sample. Fold changes of each target gene were used for the calculation of IC
50s.
The results are summarized below in Table 5.

3) Mouse PK (In vivo T
1/2 and oral bioavailability)
In vivo pharmacokinetics (PK) were assessed in fasted male CD-1 mice (age 6-8 weeks) following a single intravenous (IV, 0.5 or 1.0 mg/kg administered at 2.5 ml/kg) or oral (PO, 5 mg/kg administered at 10 ml solution/kg) dose of test article formulated in a 20% (w: vol) HP-β-CD solution or in Pyrogen free water.
Plasma and/or whole blood samples were collected from the dorsal metatarsal vein at desired timepoints via serial capillary microsampling (approx. 0.03 mL) using EDTA as an anticoagulant. Concentrations of compound in the plasma and blood samples were analyzed using a qualified LC-MS/MS method. In silico analysis of main pharmacokinetic parameters was performed using WinNonlin (PhoenixTM, version 6.1) or similar software. )
4) Metabolic Stability in Human/Mouse Liver Microsomes
Experimental Procedure
The objective of this study is to measure in vitro metabolic stability of test compound (s) in human and mouse liver microsomes and provide quantitative information on the rate of metabolic turnover (i.e., determination of the apparent intrinsic clearance of test) .
Test items were prepared at a stock concentration of 10 mM in DMSO. For determination of metabolic turnover, a final working solution was prepared by adding 2 μL of 10 mM DMSO stock solution for test compound or positive control compounds to 198 μL of acetonitrile (100 μM final concentration) .
Incubations were performed as follows: First, liver microsomes were thawed on ice and a master solution containing liver microsomes in 100 mM PBS (phosphate-buffered saline) at pH 7.4 is prepared. Next, the liver microsomes solution was added to the incubation plates and 10 mM NADPH (Nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) was added (MW: 833.4 g/mol; Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Germany. Dissolved in phosphate buffer (100 mmol/L, pH 7.4) ) . The mixture was mixed for 10 seconds and pre-warmed in the incubation plate at 37℃ for 10 minutes. The metabolic reaction was initiated with the addition of 5 μL of the 100 μM working solution for test compound or positive control compounds to incubation plate (final test item concentration = 1 μM) . The reaction final mixture should contain 1 mM NADPH, 0.5 mg/mL microsomes protein and 1 μM test compound or positive control compound in 100 mM PBS at pH 7.4. The percentage of organic solvent in incubation mixture is 1%with DMSO ≤ 0.02%.
The reaction was quenched by transferring 50 μL of the incubated mixture at selected time points into the quenching plate containing 200 μL of cold methanol. After sampling of all the timepoints the quenching plate was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 40 minutes to precipitate protein. A total of 90 μL of the supernatant was transferred to an analysis plate and ultra-pure H
2O water is added into each well for LC/MS/MS analysis. All incubations and analysis were performed in duplicate.
Data analysis
All calculations were carried out using Microsoft Excel. The slope value, k, was determined by linear regression of the natural logarithm of the remaining percentage of the parent drug vs. incubation time curve. The results are summarized below in Table 6.
The in vitro half-life (in vitro t
1/2) was determined from the slope value:
in vitro t
1/2 = - (0.693 /k)
Conversion of the in vitro t
1/2 (in min) into the in vitro intrinsic clearance (in vitro CL
int, in μL/min/mg proteins) was done using the following equation:

5) Protocol for Pharmacodynamics (PD) Activity in Subcutaneous (sc or SC) Xenografts of MOLM-14 or OCI-AML3 Cells
Test Agents and Controls
Compound A3 was formulated in 20%hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and prepared to reach a total volume of 0.2 mL (10 mL/kg) per dose for a 20 g animal. Doses were adjusted by individual body weight each day. Working stocks of Compound A3 were prepared once per week for each study and stored at room temperature. Compound A3 was administered orally (PO) , daily.
Assay
The in vivo pharmacodynamics (PD) activity of compounds was evaluated in subcutaneous (SC) xenografts of MOLM-14 cells or OCI-AML3 cells. Nude NMRI mice (Crl: NMRI-Foxn1nu/-) harboring MOLM-14 or OCI-AML3 tumors were treated with 3 daily doses of vehicle or compounds. Plasma samples were collected at 23 hours after day 2 dose, 0.5 hours post final dose, and 16 hours post final dose and tumor samples were collected 16 hours post final dose. To examine the effects of compounds on the expression of multiple Menin-KMT2A target genes (e.g., MEIS1, MEF2C, FLT3) QuantiGene Plex technology (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used. Frozen tumors were homogenized and transferred to individual lysing matrix tubes in lysis buffer and incubated for 30 minutes at 55℃. Cell lysates were mixed with target-specific capture probes, Luminex beads, and blocking probes, transferred to the custom assay hybridization plate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and incubated for 18 to 22 hours at 54℃. Subsequently, plates were transferred to a magnetic separation plate and washed to remove unbound materials from beads followed by sequential hybridization of preamplifiers, amplifiers, and label probe and subsequent streptavidin phycoerythrin binding. Signals from the beads were measured with a Luminex FlexMap three-dimensional instrument. For all non-housekeeper genes response equal counts corrected for background and relative expression. For each sample, each test gene signal (background subtracted) was divided by the normalization gene signal (RPL19, RPL28, ATP6V1A: background subtracted) . Fold changes were calculated by dividing the normalized values for the treated samples by the normalized values for the DMSO treated sample. The results are summarized below in Tables 7 and 8.

Tumor Model and Cell Culture Method
Human AML MOLM-14 cells were cultured at 37℃, 5%CO
2 in the indicated complete culture media (RPMI 1640 + 10%HI-FBS + 2mM L-glutamine + 50ug/ml Gentamycin ) . Cells were harvested while in logarithmic growth and resuspended in cold (4℃) Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 in serum-free medium.
Each mouse received 5×10
6 MOLM-14 cells in 50%Matrigel in the right flank, in a total volume of 0.2 mL using a 1cc syringe and a 27-gauge needle.
Study Designs
Compound A3 was administered orally (PO) , daily.
Day 0 is the day of tumor cell implantation and study initiation.
Mice bearing SC MOLM-14 tumors were randomized on Day 16 post-tumor implantation and assigned to treatment groups according to tumor volume (mean of ~130 mm
3; n=10/group) . Treatment with vehicle or Compound A3 (at 30 and 100 mg/kg) was initiated on the same day, with daily oral dosing for 21 days. Plasma was collected at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 23 hours after the last dose (n=4-5/group/time point) for PK (pharmacokinetics) analysis.
Animal Monitoring
SC tumor volume was measured for each animal 2 to 3 times per week or more throughout the study.
Calculations
Tumor volume was calculated using the formula:
Tumor volume (mm
3) = (D×d
2/2) ; where ‘D’ represents the larger diameter and ‘d’ the smaller diameter of the tumor as determined by caliper measurements. Tumor volume data was graphed as the mean tumor volume ± SEM.
The %ΔTGI was defined as the difference between mean tumor burden of the treatment and control groups, calculated as %ΔTGI = ( [ (TV
cTVc
0) (TV
tTV
t0) ] / (TV
cTVc
0) ) ×100 where ‘TV
c’ is the mean tumor burden of a given control group, ‘TVc
0’ is the mean initial tumor burden of a given control group, ‘TV
t’ is the mean tumor burden of the treatment group, and ‘TV
t0’ is the mean initial tumor burden of the treatment group. %TGI was defined as the difference between.
Mean tumor volumes of the treated and control groups, calculated as:
%TGI = ( (TV
cTV
t) /TV
c) ×100 where ‘TV
c’ is the mean tumor volume of the control group and ‘TV
t’ is the mean tumor volume of the treatment group. As defined by National Cancer Institute criteria, ≥60%TGI is considered biologically significant.
The %Tumor Regression (TR) , quantified to reflect the treatment-related reduction of tumor volume as compared to baseline independent of the control group, was calculated as %TR= (1-mean (TV
ti/TV
t0i) ) x 100 where ‘TV
ti’ is the tumor burden of individual animals in a treatment group, and ‘TV
t0i’ is the initial tumor burden of the animal.
Data Analysis
Tumor volumes were graphed using Prism software (GraphPad version 7 or 8) . Statistical significance for most studies was evaluated for Compound A3-treated groups compared with HPβCD vehicle-treated controls on the last day of the study when 2/3 or more mice remained in each group. Differences between groups were considered significant when p≤0.05.
Statistical significance for animal tumor volume was calculated using the linear mixed-effects (LME) analysis in R software version 3.4.2 (using Janssen’s internally developed Shiny application version 4.0) , with treatment and time as fixed effects and animal as random effect. Logarithmic transformation was performed if individual longitudinal response trajectories were not linear.
The information derived from this model was used to make pairwise treatment comparisons of tumor volumes to that of the control group or between all the treatment groups. The results are shown in FIG. 2.
7) Cardio-Electrophysiological Effects of the Testing Compounds in Synchronously Beating Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes (hSC-CMs) Using a Ca
2+-Fluorescence Assay (CTCM human)
Protocol
Compounds were tested in the 96-well plates.
Compounds were tested at 0.1 μM, 0.2 μM, 0.5 μM, 1 μM, 2.5 μM and 5 μM (n = 4 per dose) on Cor. 4U
or on
Cardiomyocytes2.
Alternatively, compounds were tested at 0.1 μM, 0.3 μM; 1 μM, 3 μM, 10 μM and 30 μM (n = 4 per dose) mostly on
Cardiomyocytes2.
Positive and Negative controls
Vehicle control: Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) . The solutions of the compound in DMSO or its solvent (final concentration of 0.1%DMSO; n = 8) .
Preparation of Test Article and Controls
Tested compounds were dissolved in DMSO at 1000-fold the intended concentrations. A compound “mother-plate” was made, containing the test compounds and positive and negative controls at 1000-fold the final concentrations. At the experiment day, these stock solutions were diluted with Tyrode (Sigma) , supplemented with 10 mM HEPES (Gibco) , to 2-fold the intended concentration (in round bottom compound plates) . Final DMSO concentration in test solutions and vehicle control was 0.1%.
Cells
hSC-CMs (Cor.
Cardiomyocytes) were obtained from CDI (Ncardia, Germany) . Cells are pre-plated and seeded in fibronectin-coated 96-well plates at a density suited to form a monolayer and maintained in culture in a stage incubator (37℃, 5%CO
2) , according to the instructions of the cell provider.
Second line hSC derived cardiomyocyte called
Cardiomyocytes2 were purchased from FUJIFILM Cellular Dynamics (USA) . The experiments with test drugs are carried out 5 to 7 days after plating the cells onto the plate to have a living, beating monolayer of hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. The beating monolayer in 96-well-plates are normally taken from 2 Vials of frozen
Cardiomyocytes2 (≈5 million cells/vial) , which will be plated onto three 96-well plates (≈50K/well) .
Before Start of Experiment
At least one hour before the start of the experiments the normal cell medium was replaced with Tyrode solution with Calcium dye (see below) .
Cal 520 dye (AAT Bioquest) was dissolved in 11 ml of Tyrode supplemented with 10 mM HEPES and warmed up to 37 C before adding to the cells.
35 μl cell culture medium was removed from each well and replaced with 35 μl of pre-warmed Cal 520 dye solution and cell plate was incubated for 45 min at 37 ℃ /5%CO
2. Cells were incubated for 5 min at 37 ℃.
Experiment
Spontaneous electrical activity is recorded, using Cal520
TM (AAT Bioquest) calcium fluorescence-dye signalling. This dye integrates the total intracellular calcium activity over the whole well. A bottle of Cal520 dye (50μg, MW: 1103/mol) is dissolved with 50 μl DMSO as a stock solution of 0.9 mM. 50 μL of the stock solution of the dye was added to 10 ml Tryodes solution to have dye concentration of 4.5 μM. Subsequently, 35 μl of this dye solution was added into each well, to have a final dye concentration of 1.58 μM. The current dye protocol on this CTCM human assay was established recently (Ivan Kopljar et al, Journal of Pharmacological and toxicological methods 2018.91: 80-86; Lu et al., Tox Sci 2019.170 (2) : 345-356) .
Fluorescent signals (Ca
2+ transient morphology) were measured using the Functional Drug Screen System (FDSS/μCell; Hamamatsu, Japan) and the recordings were subsequently analyzed off-line, using appropriate software e.g., Notocord.
The cell plate was loaded into the FDSS/μCell for a test run: Ca
2+ transients were measured for 4 minutes to check for synchronous beating of the cardiomyocytes in each well. All 96 wells were measured simultaneously (sampling interval: 0.06 s, short exposure time: 10 ms;excitation wavelength 480 nm; emission wavelength 540 nm; FDSS/μCell warmed to 37℃) . When all showed synchronous beating, the 96-well plate was measured repeatedly for 3 times (to verify synchronous beating in all 96-well at baseline, wells that did not meet the preset criteria were excluded from the study and not treated with compound) :
T = 0: control period (-5 to -1 min) + compound addition, followed for 3 min.
T = 30: measured from 29 to 34 min after compound addition
During the compound addition step, 100 μl of the respective double-concentrated test solutions was pipetted into each well simultaneously.
Data were analyzed off-line using appropriate software e.g., Notocord-Hem (version 4.3) .
The following parameters of the Ca
2+ transient morphology were measured:
- beat rate (BR)
- amplitude of the Ca
2+ transient (Amp) ,
- CTD
90: Ca
2+ transient duration at 90% (time to 90%of the initial base value) .
The presence of various ‘arrhythmia-like’ activities were also noted during the experimental periods. These included:
● ‘early afterdepolarization-like’ (EAD-like) events (defined as “an extra small peak of the transient waveform following the initial peak of the transient” ) ,
● ‘ventricular tachycardia-like’ (VT-like) events (defined as a very fast beating rate) or
● ‘ventricular fibrillation-like’ (VF-like) events (defined as “small amplitude, fast-rate Ca
2+ waveforms with irregularities and non-measurable transient potentials)
● ‘cessation of beating’ of the cells (no Ca
2+ transients observed) .
If compound-induced changes on the calcium transient signal could not be analyzed by the software, then these signals were identified as BQL (below quality analyses level) .
Data Analysis
Data, measured from the FDSS-μCell, were copied for off-line analysis and were analyzed and uploaded in SPEC-II (our operational management system) for further analysis. The values of the variables before and after administration of the compound were collected and transferred into an Excel workbook.
All values (actual units and percentage changes from the baseline values) are expressed as median (minimum and maximum) . Changes versus the corresponding baseline values (in actual units) observed in the compound group were compared with those in the solvent control group using the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Test. Two-tailed tests with Bonferroni correction for multiplicity adjustment were conducted. Since there are 10 treatment groups each compared to the solvent group, alpha level of 0.05/10 (0.005) was considered to reflect a statistically significant difference from the solvent group. All statistical analysis was performed using appropriate software e.g., R software version 3.5.2.
Quality Control of the hiPSC-CMs in the plate:
Plates were rejected if they did not meet following criteria:
- Stable regular beating
- Amplitude > 500 relative units
- Beat rate between 25 and 80 beats per minute
- CTD
90 between 300 and 800 ms.
In the present study, the hiPSC-CMs in the plates met the above criteria.
These parameters combined with incidence of arrhythmia or cessation of beating were used to calculate the potential hazard level using a weighted scoring method (based on Kopljar et al., Stem Cell Reports 2018.11, 1365-1377) . This hazard score is calculated per concentration by adding weighted points based on the Tolerance Intervals (TI) on the changes of CTD
90, the beat rate and amplitude (ΔΔ%) and incidence of beating stop and early afterdepolarization (EAD) . Consequently, for each concentration one of four different hazard levels will be generated. This will be done after 30-min of incubated with compound. The hazard levels are:
No hazard: within the vehicle effect levels or small non-relevant changes.
Low hazard: relevant effect but potentially low risk for cardiac liabilities.
High hazard: relative high risk for cardiac liabilities.
Very high hazard: very high risk due to arrhythmic like events (EAD’s) .
The ‘Hazard Score’ results provide an identification for potential acute cardiac drug-induced effects at free drug equivalent (as no plasma proteins are added to the wells) . Evaluation of hazard identification is conducted using a ‘scoring reference book’ called CTCM_Scoring_version 1 (Kopljar et al., Stem Cell Reports 2018.11: 1365-1377) , and levels are indicated according to the following color scheme of Table 10.

8) Effect on the Membrane Potassium Current I
Kr in hERG Transfected Cell Lines
Protocol 1:
Abbreviations
Methods
Experiments were performed using CHO cells stably expressing the hERG potassium channel. Cells were grown at 37℃ and 5%CO
2 in culture flasks in Ham’s F12 Medium supplemented with 10%heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, hygromycin B (100 μg/ml) and geneticin (100 μg/ml) . For use in the automated patch-clamp system QPatch (Sophion) cells were harvested to obtain cell suspension of single cells.
Solutions: The bath solution contained (in mM) 145 NaCl, 4 KCl, 10 glucose, 10 HEPES ( (4- (2-hydroxyethyl) -1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) , 2 CaCl
2 and 1 MgCl
2 (pH 7.4 with NaOH) . The pipette solution contained (in mM) 120 KCl, 10 EGTA (Ethylene glycol-bis (2-aminoethylether) -N, N, N', N'-tetraacetic acid) , 10 HEPES, 5.374 CaCl
2 and 1.75 MgCl
2 (pH 7.2 with KOH) .
Patch-clamp experiments were performed in the voltage-clamp mode and whole-cell currents were recorded with an automated patch-clamp assay utilizing the QPatch system (Sophion) . Current signals were amplified and digitized, stored and analyzed by using the QPatch assay software.
The holding potential was -80 mV. The hERG current (K
+-selective outward current) was determined as the maximal tail current at -40 mV after a 2 second depolarization to +60 mV. Pulse cycling rate was 15 s. A short pulse (90 ms) to -40 mV served as a baseline step to calculate the tail current amplitude. After establishing whole-cell configuration and a stability period, the solvent control (0.3%DMSO) was applied for 5 minutes followed by the test substance by four increasing concentrations of 3 x 10
-7 M, 3 x 10
-6 M, 10
-5 M and 3 x 10
-5 M. Each concentration of the test substance was applied twice. The effect of each concentration was determined after 5 min as an average current of 3 sequential voltage pulses. To determine the extent of block the residual current was compared with vehicle pre-treatment.
Concentration/response relations were calculated by non-linear least-squares fits to the individual data points. The half-maximal inhibiting concentration (IC50) was calculated by the fitting routine.
Protocol 2:
Cells
The compound, vehicle control and positive control were tested on hERG-transfected HEK293 cells. A human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293) with a stable transfection of hERG (Zhou Z et al. Biophysical Journal 1998.74, 230-241; McDonald T.V. et al, Nature 1997. 388, 289-292) was used (University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA) . The cells were kept in culture in MEM (Minimum Essential Medium, Gibco) which was supplemented with (amounts indicated added to 500 ml MEM) : 5 ml L-Glutamine-Penicillin-Streptomycin (Sigma) , 50 ml Fetal Bovine serum (Bio-Whittaker) , 5 ml Non-essential Amino Acids 100x (Gibco) , 5 ml sodium pyruvate 100 mM (Gibco) and 4 ml geneticin 50 mg/ml (Gibco) using T175 flasks. The cells were incubated at 37℃ in 5%CO
2 atmosphere (in air) .
Cell Harvesting for Assay
Cells were harvested as described below using accumax
TM (Sigma) as the dissociating reagent. Cells were then resuspended in a mixture of 33%DMEM/F12 (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 -Sigma) media/67%extracellular physiological solution.
The flasks were washed twice carefully with ~5-10 ml phosphate buffered saline (PBS) (Gibco
TM) containing 2mM EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) (Sigma) . The cells were dissociated using ~3 ml of accumax
TM (cell detachment solution) and incubated for ~5 to 10 min. at 37℃. Cold external physiological solution (2-5 ml) was added and the flasks are incubated at ~4 ℃ for 5-10 min. Then, the cell suspension in each flask was gently dissociated with a 5ml pipette. The cell suspension was transferred to a low binding petri-dish (~10 mm diameter) . Each flask was washed with ~ additional 5 ml cold external physiological solution and this solution was also added to the petri-dish. The petri-dish was then incubated for another 5 to 10 minutes at ~4 ℃. After another gentle dissociation of the cell suspension in the petri dish, the cells were transferred to a reservoir kept on an orbital shaker at 200 rpm at 16℃. Before experiments were performed, the cells recovered for ~20 min.
Compounds
A 10 mM solution of the compound was used and plated in a 384 well plate. Aliquots of the stock solutions are diluted with the recording solution using automated liquid handling (Biomek FXP; final DMSO concentration: 0.03 to 0.3 %) . A standard range of screening concentrations was used ranging from 1 μM to 30 μM.
A positive control (E-4031) was included within each run to evaluate the sensitivity of the assay. Table 13 summarizes the external and intracellular solutions used in the experiments. In Table 13, the composition of the intracellular and external buffer solutions is shown in [mM] and “NMDG” means N-methyl-D-glucamine.
Table 13 -External and Intracellular Solutions
Study Design
The whole cell patch clamp technique on transfected cells allows the study of ion-channels with no -or limited interference from other ion-channels. The effects of the compounds on the hERG current were studied with an automated planar patch clamp system, SyncroPatch 384PE (Obergrussberger et al, Journal of Laboratory Automation 2016.21 (6) , 779-793) . All cells were recorded in the whole cell mode of the patch clamp technique. The module is incorporated in a liquid handling pipetting robot system, Biomek FXP, for application of cells and compounds, vehicle control and positive control.
The different concentrations of the compounds were applied in two cumulatively increasing concentrations for the compounds (1 μM and 10 μM, and 3 μM and 30 μM, respectively) . The hERG current was determined as the maximal tail current at -30 mV and percent inhibition upon compound or vehicle and positive control addition was reported.
After cells are caught onto the individual holes of the recording chips using the chip fill solution, the seal is increased with the seal enhancer solution (increased [Ca
2+] ; then the cells were washed twice with recording solution before using a pressure protocol to go into the whole cell mode.
After the whole cell mode was achieved, test pulses were given for ~10 minutes to quantify the hERG current in control conditions. During this control period vehicle control solution (recording solution containing 0.03%DMSO) was added three times into the individual wells. While continuing the pulse protocol, cumulatively increasing concentrations of the vehicle control, compound or positive control was added. The effect of the vehicle, compound and positive control was measured after 5 minutes of drug application. Two concentrations of the compound were tested per cell.
The use of the internal and recording solutions will result in ~10 mV liquid junction potential and the command voltage step will take this into account.
Electrophysiological measurements: The membrane current of the cells was measured at distinct membrane potentials with the patch clamp technique by means of an automated patch clamp system. The holding potential is -70 mV. The hERG current (K
+-selective outward current) was determined as the maximal tail current at -30 mV after a 2 second depolarization to +70 mV (refs. 1, 4) . Pulse cycling rate was 15 s.
Data analysis
The leak corrected hERG current (K
+-selective outward current) was determined as the maximal tail current at -30 mV after a 2-second of depolarization to +70 mV measured between 2336.3 ms and 3083.6 ms. The median of three current amplitudes was taken at the end of the control period and at the end of each addition of compound, vehicle and positive control to calculate the percent inhibition.
QC parameters were set in the SyncroPatch 384PE PatchControl384 software to automatically exclude wells from the analysis if values fall outside the range. The QC criteria are dependent on the type of recording plate (chip) . Typically, a 4xChip (medium size hole) was used to record from hERG-transfected HEK293 cells. QC criteria 4-6 were set before the first addition of the compound; QC criteria 4 and 5 were also set at the end of each compound addition.
QC Criteria and acceptable ranges:
1. Board Check: -500pA -500pA
2. Contact seal resistance: -100kOhm -10MOhm
3. Junction potential offset: 0 -100mV
4. Rseal ≥ 100 MOhm
5. Rseries: between 1 -25 MOhm
6. hERG tail current ≥ 0.2 nA before compound addition
Each compound was replicated on the same plate in at least 5 wells. Percent inhibition of at least 2-3 replicates per concentration will be reported as median. The results are summarized below in Tables 14 and 15 for Protocol 1 and Protocol 2, respectively.

9) Efficacy Study in Disseminated OCI-AML3 Model
Test Agents and Controls
Compound A3 was formulated in 20%hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and prepared to reach a total volume of 0.2 mL (10 mL/kg) per dose for a 20 g animal. Doses were adjusted by individual body weight each day. Working stocks of Compound A3 were prepared once per week for each study and stored at 25℃.
Animals
Female SCID beige mice (CB17. Cg-PrkdcscidLystbg-J/Crl/-) were used when they were approximately 6 to 8 weeks of age and weighed approximately 25 g. All animals could acclimate and recover from any shipping-related stress for a minimum of 7 days prior to experimental use. Autoclaved water and irradiated food were provided ad libitum, and the animals were maintained on a 12 hour light and dark cycle. Cages, bedding, and water bottles were autoclaved before use and changed weekly. The tissue culture and cell injection reagents are summarized below in Table 16.

Tumor Model and Cell Culture Method
Human AML cell line OCI-AML3 was cultured at 37℃, 5%CO
2 in the indicated complete culture media (MEM Alpha + 20%HI-FBS (Heat-Inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum) + 2mM L-glutamine + 50ug/ml Gentamycin) . Cells were harvested while in logarithmic growth and resuspended in cold (4℃) MEM ( (Minimum Essential Medium) Alpha in serum-free medium.
For the disseminated OCI-AML3 model, each mouse received 5x10
5 cells via IV injection in a total volume of 0.2 mL using a 26-gauge needle.
Study Designs
Compound A3 was administered orally (PO) , daily.
Day 0 is the day of tumor cell implantation and study initiation.
In the efficacy study, mice bearing IV OCI-AML3 xenograft tumors were randomly assigned to treatment groups 3 days post-tumor cell engraftment. Treatment with vehicle or Compound A3 (at 30, 50, 100 mg/kg) was initiated on the same day, with daily dosing for 28 days.
Animal Monitoring
Animals were monitored daily for clinical signs related to either compound toxicity or tumor burden (i.e., hind limb paralysis, lethargy, etc. ) .
Calculations
For survival assessment, results were plotted as the percentage survival against days post tumor implant. Negative clinical signs and/or ≥20%body weight loss was used as a surrogate endpoint for death. Median survival was determined utilizing Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The percent increased life span (ILS) was calculated as: ( (median survival day of treated group -median survival day of control group) /median survival day of control group) × 100. Animals failing to reach the surrogate endpoint due to adverse clinical signs (such as ulcerated tumors, body weight loss, etc. ) or death unrelated to treatment were censored for the survival assessment. As defined by NCI criteria, ≥25%ILS is considered biologically significant. (Johnson JI et al. Br J Cancer. 2001.84 (10) , 1424-1431) .
Data Analysis
Survival and body weight data were graphically represented utilizing Prism (Version 7) . Statistical significance for body weights was evaluated as described above. Statistical significance was evaluated for Kaplan-Meier survival plots comparing therapeutic treatment group vs. appropriate vehicle-treated control using log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test in R software version 3.4.2. Differences between groups were considered significant when the p value was ≤0.05.
Survival
The Kaplan-Meier survival curve is shown in FIG. 3. Mice bearing established OCI-AML3 tumors were orally dosed daily with Compound A3 at 30, 50, 100 mg/kg in 20%HP-β-CD formulation for a total of 28 days (n=9-10/group) . For Compound A3 treated groups, the median days of survival were reached at the following days for 30 mg/kg at day 75.5, for 50 mg/kg at day 58.5 and for 100 mg/kg at day 75 this compared to a median survival of 38.5 days for the vehicle-treated control group. Compound A3 treatment resulted in statistically significant increased lifespan of OCI-AML3 tumor-bearing mice by 96.1%, 51.9%and 94.8%(at the 30, 50 and 100 mg/kg dose levels) as compared to that of control mice, (p≤0.001) . This was a biologically significant ILS as per NCI criteria threshold of ≥25%ILS (Johnson JI et al. Br J Cancer. 2001.84 (10) , 1424-1431) .
10) Efficacy of Menin-MLL Inhibitor in Combination with Venetoclax, and Optionally, Azacitidine, in OCI-AML3 (NPM1c) IV Model in NSG Mice
The disseminated OCI-AML3 model described above was also used to examine the efficacy of menin-MLL-inhibitor (formulated as described above) in combination with venetoclax (formulated in polyethylene glycol [PEG] -400/Phosal50/dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO] ) , and optionally azacitidine (formulated in 10%DMSO) , with the following differences: (i) instead of female SCID beige, NSG (non-obese diabetic [NOD] scid gamma or NOD. Cg-Prkdc
scid Il2rg
tm1Wjl/SzJ) were utilized, (ii) instead of 5x10
5 cells, each mouse received an injection of 1x10
6 cells, (iii) instead of 3 days, treatment with compound (s) was initiated 5 days after cell injection, and (iv) instead of a total volume of 0.2 mL (10 ml/kg) per dose, compound (s) prepared to reach a volume of 8 ml/kg Compound A1 was given in the morning, and venetoclax or azacitidine was given in the afternoon, approximately 6-8 hr apart. The treatment of each group using compound (s) in this efficacy study is summarized in Table 17.
Table 17 –Treatment of OCI-AML3 tumors in mice
The Kaplan-Meier survival curve is shown in FIG. 4A. The impact on life span of treating mice bearing established OCI-AML3 tumors for 4 weeks is summarized in Table 18.
Table 18 Impact on Life Span following Treatment of OCI-AML3-tumors in mice
p<0.05 as compared with vehicle-treated control mice except where noted as not significant (ns) . *p≤0.05 versus Aza and Ven monotherapies, and Aza+Ven combination doublet.
As reflected in Table 18, treatment of mice with Compound A1 in combination with either venetoclax or venetoclax plus azacitidine resulted in statistically significant increased lifespan (ILS) of OCI-AML3 tumor-bearing mice as compared to that of vehicle control treated mice or with either azacitidine or venetoclax alone or the doublet combination of ventetoclax plus azacitidine. Notably, there is no antagonism with the triplet combination (Compound A1 plus venetoclax and azacitidine) or doublets (venetoclax plus azacitidine or Compound A1) , and efficacy seems solely driven by Compound A1.
11) Efficacy of Menin-MLL Inhibitor in Combination with Venetoclax and Optionally, Azacitidine, in MOLM-13 (KMT2A-r) IV Model in NSG Mice
A similar approach to the disseminated OCI-AML3 model described herein for examining the efficacy of menin-MLL-inhibitor in combination with venetoclax, and optionally azacitidine, was adopted with the MOLM-13 cells being used instead of OCI-AML3 cells.
Tumor Model and Cell Culture Method
Human AML cell line MOLM-13 was cultured at 37℃, 5%CO2 in the indicated complete culture media (RPMI, Roswell Park Memorial Institute [RPMI] 1640 + 10%HI FBS + 2mM L-glutamine + 50 μg/ml Gentamycin) . Cells were harvested while in logarithmic growth and resuspended in cold (4℃) serum-free RPMI 1640 medium. Each mouse received an injection of 1x10
5 MOLM-13 cells, and all other parameters were conducted as described for experiment (10) .
The treatment of each group using compound (s) in this efficacy study is summarized in Table 19.
Table 19 –Treatment of MOLM-13-tumors in mice
The Kaplan-Meier survival curve is shown in FIG. 4B. The impact on life span of treating mice bearing established MOLM-13 tumors for 4 weeks is summarized in Table 20.

p<0.05 as compared with vehicle-treated control mice except where noted as not significant (ns) . *p≤0.05 versus Aza and Ven monotherapies. **p≤0.05 versus Compound A1, Aza, and Ven monotherapies, and Aza+Ven combination doublet.
As reflected in Table 20, treatment of mice with Compound A1 in combination with either venetoclax or venetoclax plus azacitidine resulted in statistically significant increased lifespan (ILS) of MOLM-13 tumor-bearing mice as compared to that of mice treated with venetoclax alone or the doublet combination of ventetoclax plus azacitidine.
(12) In Vitro Proliferation Protocol
(A) Menin-MLL Inhibitor in Combination with Venetoclax and Optionally, Azacitidine
The effect of Compound A3 in combination with venetoclax, or in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine, was determined in proliferation assays using the MOLM-13 (KMT2A-r) cell line. MOLM-13 cells were seeded at 500 cells/well in 96-well plates and exposed to the indicated drug alone or in combination at the specified concentration detailed in Table 21A and Table 21B. In particular, for the combination of Compound A3 with venetoclax (without azacitidine) a concentration range of Compound A3 (a7-point, 4-fold serial dilution starting at an initial concentration of 1 μM) was combined venetoclax (a6-point, 5-fold serial dilution starting at an initial concentration of 1 μM) . For the combination of Compound A3 with venetoclax and azacitidine a concentration range of Compound A3 (a6-point, 4-fold serial dilution starting at an initial concentration of 1 μM) was combined with the combination of azacitidine (a7-point, 5-fold serial dilution starting at an initial concentration of 25 μM) and venetoclax (a7-point, 5-fold serial dilution starting at an initial concentration of 1 μM) in a 25:1 ratio. Compound A3 and azacitidine (when added) were treated at day 0 and venetoclax was added at day 4. MOLM-13 cells were incubated at 37℃, 5%CO
2 with the indicated drug combination concentration for 8 days (Compound A3 and azacytidine) and for 4 days (venetoclax) in quadruplicate.
Spheroid-like growth was monitored in real-time by non-invasive live-cell imaging using the 4× objective of the Incucyte ZOOM live cell imaging system (Essen BioScience) , and acquiring images on Day 8. The percent confluence, as a measure of spheroid size, was determined using an integrated analysis tool that is the part of the Incucyte ZOOM software “IncuCyte ZOOM 2016B” (Essen BioScience) . The DMSO content was normalized to 0.3%and the percent confluence from the DMSO well was used as baseline response.
Potential combination effects were evaluated at day 8 and analyzed for synergy using an R-based Biochemically Intuitive Generalized Loewe (BIGL) model implemented with a highest single agent (HSA) null model (Van der Borght 2017) . Data from 2 independent experiments were pooled and analyzed.
Results
The doublet combination of Compound A3 with venetoclax led to significantly increased inhibition of cell proliferation compared to Compound A3 or venetoclax monotherapy (see FIG. 5A) . Strong synergistic effects were observed across a range of concentrations in MOLM-13 cells as reflected in the contour plot (FIG. 5A) and detailed below in Table 21A where effect size is represented as the difference between the observed outcome and the expected outcome of combination treatments with 95%confidence interval shown in parentheses.
The triplet combination of Compound A3 with venetoclax and azacitidine led to significantly increased inhibition of cell proliferation compared to Compound A3 monotherapy or the doublet combination of venetoclax and azacitidine (see FIG. 5B) . Strong synergistic effects were observed across a range of concentrations in MOLM-13 cells as reflected in the contour plot (FIG. 5B) and detailed below in Table 21B where effect size is represented as the difference between the observed outcome and the expected outcome of combination treatments with 95%confidence interval shown in parentheses.

(B) Menin-MLL Inhibitor in Combination with Decitabine and Venetoclax
The effect of Compound A4 in combination with decitabine as compared to in combination with decitabine and venetoclax was determined in proliferation assays using the MOLM-13 (KMT2A-r) and OCI-AML3 (NPM1c) cell lines.
Cell lines
AML cell lines MOLM-13 and OCI-AML3 were purchased from DSMZ. MOLM-13 were grown in RPMI medium supplemented with 10%Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and 1%penicillin/streptomycin. OCI-AML3 cells were cultured in 80-90%alpha-MEM (with ribo-and deoxyribonucleosides) + 10-20%FBS. All cell lines were cultured at 37℃ in 5%CO2 atmosphere.
Cell Titer Glo assays
AML cell lines, MOLM-13 and OCI-AML3, (5 x 10
3 cells/well) were seeded in 96-well plates and grown for 6 days in serum (10%) -containing medium in the presence or absence of inhibitors at the indicated concentrations detailed below in Table 22A and Table 22B. Proliferation was analyzed by means of a Cell Titer Glo assay using the CellTiter 96 Aqueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) , according to the manufacturer's instructions. Data are mean with standard deviation from two to four independent experiments in technical triplicates. Compound A4 and decitabine were added at day 0 and venetoclax (when added) was added at day 4.
Synergy calculations
R-based Biochemically Intuitive Generalized Loewe (BIGL) model implemented with a highest single agent (HSA) null model. Specifically, the BIGL methodology was applied to calculate drug-drug interactions (Van der Borght, K., Tourny, A., Bagdziunas, R. et al. BIGL: Biochemically Intuitive Generalized Loewe null model for prediction of the expected combined effect compatible with partial agonism and antagonism. Sci Rep 7, 17935 (2017) ; Thas, O., Tourny, A., Verbist, B., Hawinkel, S., Nazarov, M., Mutambanengwe, K., &Bijnens, L. Statistical detection of synergy: New methods and a comparative study. Pharmaceutical Statistics (2021) ) .
Synergy matrix results of the BIGL analysis of the cell line data with HSA as mean model calculated on the basis of the cellular metabolic activity using Cell Titer-Glo assay. Bootstrap confidence intervals are indicated. Effect sizes and their confidence intervals are shown. Notably, each data point based on the p-value and sign of the respective maxR statistic with the size of the dots reflecting the degree of synergy or antagonism corresponding to graded scale. No significant average effect if zero is included in the interval.
Results
A pairwise matrix combination of decitabine and Compound A4 in the absence or presence of venetoclax was evaluated in MOLM-13 (KMT2A-AF9; FLT3-ITD) and OCI-AML3 (NPM1c AML) cells using a 6-day CellTiter-Glo assay format. Notably, the combination of decitabine and Compound A4, with or without venetoclax, was synergistically cytotoxic in MOLM-13 (KMT2A-AF9; FLT3-ITD) cells as reflected in the contour plots (FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B) and detailed below in Tables 22A and 22B, respectively.
