| Targets |
The primary target of MM-589 is WDR5 (WD repeat domain 5), functioning by blocking the interaction between WDR5 and MLL (mixed lineage leukemia) proteins. WDR5 is a core component of the H3K4 histone methyltransferase complex, interacting with MLL1-MLL4 family members and playing a key role in histone H3K4 trimethylation, chromatin remodeling, and transcriptional activation of target genes. MM-589 binds to WDR5 with high affinity, competitively occupying the MLL binding interface, thereby specifically inhibiting MLL1 methyltransferase activity without affecting other MLL family members.

| ln Vitro |
Human leukemia cell lines with the MLL translocation exhibit a potent and selective inhibition of cell growth when exposed to MM-589 (0.01-10 µM) for 4 or 7 days [1].
MM-589 exhibits excellent inhibitory activity in vitro. By fluorescence polarization competition assay, MM-589 binds to WDR5 with an IC₅₀ of 0.90 nM (Ki < 1 nM); in a fully reconstituted MLL core complex (MLL1-WDR5-RbBP5-ASH2L) histone methyltransferase (HMT) assay, it inhibits with an IC₅₀ of 12.7 nM. In MLL-rearranged human leukemia cell lines (e.g., MLL-AF9, MLL-ENL), MM-589 potently and selectively inhibits cell proliferation, demonstrating >40-fold improved potency compared to MM-401. MM-589 treatment significantly reduces H3K4me3 levels and downregulates expression of MLL target genes such as HOXA9 and MEIS1. |
| ln Vivo |
MM-589 demonstrates in vivo anti-leukemic activity in animal models. MM-589 derivatives administered by intravenous injection effectively suppress tumor cell expansion and prolong survival in mouse models of MLL leukemia. Studies indicate that MLL-WDR5 interaction inhibitor derivatives with improved pharmacokinetic properties have the potential to be trialed in cancer patients. Compared to MM-401, MM-589 exhibits superior pharmacodynamic profiles in in vivo studies due to its improved cellular permeability and metabolic stability. No significant toxicity to normal hematopoietic function has been observed during treatment.

| Enzyme Assay |
WDR5 Protein Expression and Purification: Express recombinant human WDR5 protein in E. coli and purify by affinity chromatography and size-exclusion chromatography.
Fluorescence Polarization Competition Assay: Incubate WDR5 protein with fluorescently labeled MLL-derived peptide (FAM-labeled WIN peptide) and varying concentrations of MM-589, measure changes in fluorescence polarization. MM-589 binds to WDR5 with an IC₅₀ of 0.90 nM (Ki < 1 nM).
In Vitro MLL HMT Functional Assay: Use AlphaLISA or scintillation counting methods. Pre-incubate the reconstituted MLL core complex (MLL1-WDR5-ASH2L-RbBP5) with varying concentrations of MM-589, add histone H3 substrate and [³H]-SAM to initiate the reaction, measure [³H]-methyl incorporation. The IC₅₀ for HMT activity inhibition is 12.7 nM.
Co-crystallization Structure Determination: Mix WDR5 and MM-589 at a 1:2 molar ratio, crystallize by hanging-drop vapor diffusion method, and determine the co-crystal structure at 1.64 Å resolution (PDB: 5VFC).

| Cell Assay |
Cell viability assay [1]
Cell Types: MV4-11 and MOLM-13 Cell Tested Concentrations: 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 μM Incubation Duration: 4 days or 7 days Experimental Results: Effectively inhibits the growth of MV4-11 and MOLM-13 cells, IC50 The values are 0.25 and 0.21 μM respectively. The inhibitory activity on the cell growth of HL-60 cell line is weak, with IC50 of 8.6 μM. Cell Culture: Culture MLL-rearranged leukemia cell lines (e.g., MLL-AF9-transduced cells, MV4-11, KOPN-8) and non-MLL leukemia cells (e.g., K562, HL60, U937) in RPMI-1640 medium with 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C, 5% CO₂. Cell Proliferation Assay: Seed cells in 96-well plates (1×10⁵/mL), treat with varying concentrations of MM-589 (0-10 μM) or MM-401 as control, culture for 3-5 days, and measure cell viability using CellTiter-Glo or CCK-8 assays. Cell Cycle Analysis: After 48 hours of MM-589 treatment, fix cells with 70% ethanol, stain with PI, and analyze cell cycle distribution by flow cytometry. Apoptosis Detection: Detect apoptosis rate using Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. Western Blot Analysis: Extract proteins to detect H3K4me3 levels and expression changes of target proteins such as HOXA9 and MEIS1. Data Analysis: MM-589 exhibits >40-fold improved growth inhibition potency against MLL-rearranged leukemia cells compared to MM-401. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal Models: Establish disseminated leukemia models by intravenous injection of MLL-rearranged leukemia cells (e.g., MLL-AF9 cells) into immunodeficient mice (NSG or NOD/SCID mice) via the tail vein.
Dosing Regimen: Administer MM-589 by intravenous injection, typically once daily for 2-3 consecutive weeks. Due to the improved solubility of the TFA salt form of MM-589, it should be formulated in appropriate vehicle buffers.
Efficacy Assessment: Monitor tumor burden by bioluminescent imaging, record survival (Kaplan-Meier analysis), and detect the percentage of leukemia cells (hCD45⁺) in peripheral blood and bone marrow by flow cytometry.
Toxicity Assessment: Monitor animal body weight changes, behavioral performance, and peripheral blood cell counts to evaluate effects on normal hematopoietic function.
Pharmacodynamic Analysis: Collect bone marrow or spleen samples to detect H3K4me3 levels and target gene expression such as HOXA9.
Data Analysis: Compare survival differences and tumor burden changes between treatment and control groups.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a macrocyclic peptidomimetic, MM-589 exhibits significantly improved metabolic stability and cellular permeability through a cyclization strategy compared to the linear peptide MM-101. This compound has good solubility in DMSO. The TFA salt form has improved solubility in aqueous buffers, making it more suitable for in vivo administration. MM-589 powder is stable for 2-3 years when stored at -20°C or 4°C protected from light; solutions are stable for 6 months at -80°C protected from light. MM-589 represents the most potent inhibitor of the WDR5-MLL interaction reported to date, and further optimization may yield a new therapy for acute leukemia.
