Pharmacology

Indication

Tazemetostat is indicated to treat adult and pediatric patients 16 years and older with metastatic or locally advanced epithelioid sarcoma that is not eligible for complete resection.6 It is also indicated to treat adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma whose tumors are positive for an IZH2 mutation and who have received at least 2 prior systemic therapies.6 Additionally, it is indicated in adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma who have no satisfactory alternative treatment options.6

Pharmacodynamics

Tazemetostat is a methyltransferase inhibitor that prevents hyper-trimethylation of histones and inhibits cancer cell de-differentiation.6 The duration of action is long as it is given twice daily.6 Patients should be counselled regarding the risk of secondary malignancies and embryo-fetal toxicity.6

Mechanism of action

EZH2 is a methyltransferase subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) which catalyzes multiple methylations of lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3K27).6 Trimethylation of this lysine inhibits the transcription of genes associated with cell cycle arrest.3,6 PRC2 is antagonized by the switch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) multiprotein complex.3 Abnormal activation of EZH2 or loss of function mutations in SWI/SNF lead to hyper-trimethylation of H3K27.3 Hyper-trimethylation of H3K27 leads to cancer cell de-differentiation,1 a gain of cancer stem cell-like properties.2 De-differentiation can allow for cancer cell proliferation.1,2,3,6

Tazemetostat inhibits EZH2,6 preventing hyper-trimethylation of H3K27 and an uncontrollable cell cycle.3

General Function
Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Catalytic subunit of the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' (H3K9me) and 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. Able to mono-, di- and trimethylate 'Lys-27' of histone H3 to form H3K27me1, H3K27me2 and H3K27me3, respectively. Displays a preference for substrates with less methylation, loses activity when progressively more methyl groups are incorporated into H3K27, H3K27me0 > H3K27me1 > H3K27me2 (PubMed:22323599). Compared to EZH1-containing complexes, it is more abundant in embryonic stem cells and plays a major role in forming H3K27me3, which is required for embryonic stem cell identity and proper differentiation. The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems. Genes repressed by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex include HOXC8, HOXA9, MYT1, CDKN2A and retinoic acid target genes. EZH2 can also methylate non-histone proteins such as the transcription factor GATA4 and the nuclear receptor RORA. Regulates the circadian clock via histone methylation at the promoter of the circadian genes. Essential for the CRY1/2-mediated repression of the transcriptional activation of PER1/2 by the CLOCK-ARNTL/BMAL1 heterodimer; involved in the di and trimethylation of 'Lys-27' of histone H3 on PER1/2 promoters which is necessary for the CRY1/2 proteins to inhibit transcription.

Able to mono-, di- and trimethylate 'Lys-27' of histone H3 to form H3K27me1, H3K27me2 and H3K27me3, respectively. Required for embryonic stem cell derivation and self-renewal, suggesting that it is involved in safeguarding embryonic stem cell identity. Compared to EZH2-containing complexes, it is less abundant in embryonic stem cells, has weak methyltransferase activity and plays a less critical role in forming H3K27me3, which is required for embryonic stem cell identity and proper differentiation.
