GSK-LSD1 2HCl, the dihydrochloride salt of GSK-LSD1 (GSK-LSD-1), is an irreversible, potent and selective inhibitor of Lysine (K) -specific demethylase 1A (LSD1) with antineoplastic activity. It inhibits LSD1 with an IC50 of 16 nM, and shows > 1000 fold selectivity for LSD1 over other closely related FAD dependent enzymes such as LSD2, MAO-A, and MAO-B. It displays potent in vitro antiproliferative activity and high in vivo antitumor efficacy.

| ln Vivo | To assess the activity of LSD1 inhibition in vivo, secondary recipient mice engrafted with 1 × 10~5 MLL-AF9 primary AML cells were treated with GSK-LSD1. The drug was administered daily during a 14-day treatment window at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg. Treatment was initiated only after peripheral blood engraftment was confirmed (supplemental Figure 1A, available on the Blood Web site). After treatment, some mice were killed and analyzed using flow cytometric detection of GFP as a readout of MLL-AF9 allele burden. GSK-LSD1–treated mice exhibited a lower proportion of GFP+ cells in the bone marrow (Figure 1A), peripheral blood, and spleen (supplemental Figure 1B-C). Other measures of disease burden, including spleen weight, were markedly reduced in the setting of GSK-LSD1 treatment (supplemental Figure 1E). Mice treated with GSK-LSD1 exhibited a significant decline in platelet count (P = .003; supplemental Figure 1D), which is consistent with an on-target effect of LSD1 depletion.18 Immunophenotyping of bone marrow cells after 3 days of GSK-LSD1 treatment revealed a reduction of more primitive GFP+ leukemia cells coexpressing c-kit and Mac-1 (Figure 1B). GSK-LSD1–treated mice also had markedly improved survival (median survival, 78 days) compared with control mice (median survival, 39 days) (Figure 1C). Strikingly, a small proportion of treated mice had no detectable disease even 248 days after transplantation. In order to confirm this effect of LSD1 inhibition on survival, we performed serial transplantation of MLL-AF9 cells harvested from leukemic mice treated for 3 days with either vehicle alone or GSK-LSD1. Equivalent numbers of GFP+ cells purified from vehicle- or GSK-LSD1–treated mice were injected into sublethally irradiated mice. Tertiary recipient mice transplanted with cells harvested from GSK-LSD1–treated mice had improved survival when compared with vehicle-treated mice. While recipient mice transplanted with vehicle-treated cells had a median survival of 23 days, mice challenged with GSK-LSD1–treated leukemia cells had a median survival of 51 days (Figure 1D). Only 50% of the mice engrafted with GSK-LSD1–treated leukemia cells succumbed to AML. The remaining 50% of the mice transplanted with GSK-LSD1–treated cells remained healthy up to 308 days after transplantation and showed no signs of leukemia. These data suggest that LSD1 inhibition has potent antileukemic activity, improves overall survival, and occasionally causes complete disease eradication in an aggressive model of MLL-AF9–driven AML.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5897868/ | |
| Cell Assay |
Cell cycle analysis Cell cycle analysis was performed by BrdU staining of cells treated in vitro for 48 hours with GSKLSD1. BrdU Flow Kit (BD Biosciences) was used. Briefly, after 48 hours of exposure to GSK-LSD1, cells were exposed to 10 µM BrdU per manufacturer’s instructions for 20 min. After this, cells were harvested, permeabilized and stained with anti-BrdU antibody labelled with APC, while leukemic cells were GFP+ (harbouring pMSCV-MLL-AF9-IRES-GFP plasmid). For DNA staining SYTOX™ Blue Dead Cell Stain was used. The SYTOX Blue signal was acquired in a linear mode. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5897868/#sec12 MLL-AF9 leukemia cells were treated in vitro by culturing cells in IMDM supplemented with 15% FBS, IL-3, IL-6, and mSCF with the addition of vehicle alone or GSK-LSD1 at a concentration of 0.5 µM for 48 hours. Similarly, leukemia cells were treated with the DOT1L inhibitor EPZ4777 for 6 days at a concentration of 1 µM. Colony forming assays were performed according to manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 500 cells/dish were plated in MC3434 methylcellulose and numbers of colonies were scored after 6 days of incubation. For each arm 3 independent dishes were scored, and colony assays were performed at least in duplicate. GSK-LSD1 was added to MC3434 semisolid medium at day 0 at a concentration of 0.5 µM and colonies were scored six days later.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5897868/#sec12 |

| Animal Protocol | For in vivo treatment experiments, GSK-LSD1 was administered via intraperitoneal injections at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg daily. Treatment was initiated only after peripheral blood engraftment of MLL-AF9 leukemia cells was confirmed at a minimum chimerism of 0.1-1% GFPpositive cells for syngeneic murine MLL-AF9 leukemia cells or 12.3% ± 2.7 hCD45-positive cells for xenotransplantation experiments. Mice were treated for 3 days (Figure 1B), 2 weeks (Figure 1C) or 6 weeks (Figure 1G). Cytological staining was performed on cytospin preparations of suspension cells from in vitro culture (Figures 1E, 5E, 6D+F) or from peripheral blood of mice (Figure 1J) using the Deep Quick Stain kit. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5897868/#sec12 | |
