IACS-9571 is a potent and selective inhibitor TRIM24 and BRPF1. The bromodomain containing proteins TRIM24 (Tripartite motif containing protein 24) and BRPF1 (bromodomain and PHD finger containing protein 1) are involved in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and have been implicated in human cancer. Overexpression of TRIM24 correlates with poor patient prognosis and BRPF1 is a scaffolding protein required for the assembly of histone acetyltransferase complexes, where the gene of MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein) was first identified as a recurrent fusion partner in leukemia patients (8p11 chromosomal rearrangements). IACS-9571 has low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC Kd = 31 nM and 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC50 = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties (F = 29%), IACS-9571 is a high-quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo.

The bromodomain containing proteins TRIM24 (tripartite motif containing protein 24) and BRPF1 (bromodomain and PHD finger containing protein 1) are involved in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and have been implicated in human cancer. Overexpression of TRIM24 correlates with poor patient prognosis, and BRPF1 is a scaffolding protein required for the assembly of histone acetyltransferase complexes, where the gene of MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein) was first identified as a recurrent fusion partner in leukemia patients (8p11 chromosomal rearrangements). Here, we present the structure guided development of a series of N,N-dimethylbenzimidazolone bromodomain inhibitors through the iterative use of X-ray cocrystal structures. A unique binding mode enabled the design of a potent and selective inhibitor 8i (IACS-9571) with low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC K_d = 31 nM and ITC K_d = 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC₅₀ = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties (F = 29%), 8i is a high-quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo.

Bromodomains are an important class of chromatin remodeling proteins that recognize acetylated lysine residues on histone tails. As epigenetic targets they regulate gene transcription and offer a new way to treat diseas es, particularly in inflammation and oncology. The bromodomain and extra- terminal (BET) family has emerged as an important and druggable example of this class of proteins with the successful entry of small- molecule inhibitors into the clinic. Other families of bromodomains are only starting to be explored, such as the Tripartite Motif -containing 24 protein (TRIM24) and bromodomain- PHD finger protein 1 (BRPF1). Both proteins contain a dual PHD -bromo motif which have a role in recognizing specific histone mar ks. TRIM24 recognizes the dual histone marks of unmodified H3K4 and acetylated- H3K23 within the same histone tail. TRIM24 is a potent co- activator of ER -alpha and overexpression of TRIM24 has been linked to poor survival rates in breast cancer patients.
This presentation will describe the structure guided development of a series of N,N- dimethyl -benzimidazolones through the iterative use of X -ray cocrystal structures. A unique binding mode enabled the design of a potent and selective inhibitor (IACS -9571) with low nanomolar affinities for TRIM24 and BRPF1 (ITC Kd = 31 nM and ITC Kd = 14 nM, respectively). With its excellent cellular potency (EC 50 = 50 nM) and favorable pharmacokinetic properties, IACS -9571 is a high- quality chemical probe for the evaluation of TRIM24 and/or BRPF1 bromodomain function in vitro and in vivo
