EP652
EP652 is a METTL3 inhibitor and antitumor agent with IC50 values of 2 nM, <10 nM, and 37 nM in SPA, intracellular, and ATPlite assays, respectively. EP652 exhibits high selectivity against 40 other methyltransferases and FTO, and possesses favorable pharmacokinetic parameters. EP652 reduces intracellular N6-methyladenosine (m6A) levels in mRNA. EP652 inhibits tumor growth and progression of both hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. EP652 can be used for the research of acute myeloid leukemia, ovarian cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Biological Activity
EP652 (range; 24 h for Calu-6) potently reduces intracellular m6A levels across multiple liquid and solid tumor cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 3 nM to 9 nM, including an IC50 of 8.6 nM in Calu-6 cells after 24-hour treatment[1].
EP652 inhibits 3D spheroid proliferation of NCI-H1650 lung cancer cells with an IC50 of 99 nM[1].
EP652 (respective IC50 concentrations; 72 h) modulates key oncogenic and pro-apoptotic biomarkers in solid tumor cell lines after 72-hour treatment at their respective IC50 concentrations, reducing Bcl-2 levels and increasing Bax levels[1].

EP652 (30 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily; for 91 consecutive days) significantly prolongs the survival of patient-derived xenograft models of acute myeloid leukemia, with a 100% survival rate on day 112[1].
EP652 (10-30 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; days 19 to 31) inhibits the progression of acute myeloid leukemia, reduces the human cancer cell burden in the blood, bone marrow and spleen, and a dose-dependent response is observed at the doses of 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg[1].
EP652 (30 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily) prolongs the survival time of mice in orthotopic xenograft models of non-small cell lung cancer and subcutaneous xenograft models of pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, respectively[1].
