AS-99 TFA is a first-in-class, potent and selective ASH1L histone methyltransferase inhibitor ( IC 50 = 0.79 µM, K d = 0.89 µM) with anti-leukemic activity. AS-99 TFA blocks cell proliferation, induces apoptosis and differentiation, downregulates MLL fusion target genes, and reduces the leukemia burden in vivo [1] .
0.79 µM (ASH1L histone methyltransferase) [1]
AS-99 TFA is tested against a panel of 20 histone methyltransferases, including NSD1, NSD2, NSD3, and SETD2. NO significant inhibition is observed at 50 µM of AS-99 TFA on any of the tested histone methyltransferases, indicating over 100-fold selectivity towards ASH1L
[1]
.
AS-99 shows a several fold weaker effect on the proliferation of leukemia cells without
MLL1
translocations, such as SET2 and K562, with no or limited effects at 10 µM or higher concentrations
[1]
.
AS-99 (1-8 µM; 7 days) TFA also induces apoptosis in the MLL leukemia cells, but not in the K562 cells, as assessed by the quantification of the Annexin V positive cells
[1]
.
AS-99 TFA suppresses MLL fusion driven transcriptional programs
[1]
.
AS-99 results in a reduced number of H3K36me2 peaks when compared to the DMSO-treated cells

AS-99 (30 mg/kg; i.p.; q.d., treated for 14 consecutive days) TFA reduces leukemia burden in mice
[1]
.
AS-99 TFA is used for in vivo studies in mice, which reveals favorable exposure in plasma upon i.v. and i.p. administration (AUC = 9701 hr* ng/mL and 10,699 hr* ng/mL, respectively), suitable half-life (~5–6 h) and Cmax >10 µM
