摘要

Menin inhibitors have entered clinical trials for histone lysine methyltransferase 2 A (KMT2A)-rearranged and nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1)-mutant acute leukemias and are demonstrating promising activity. CRISPR base editor screening previously predicted several MEN1 (menin) mutations that have arisen in patients receiving SNDX-5613 and confer resistance. The extent to which MEN1 mutations will impact each menin inhibitor is mostly unknown. Here we show that CRISPR base editor screens can be leveraged to profile the MEN1 mutations that may impact five different menin inhibitors in clinical trials. We identify shared (M327I/V/T, G331D) and inhibitor-specific (C334R, E368K/V, V372A) resistance mutations. Co-crystal structures of menin bound to each menin inhibitor suggest resistance mechanisms related to how each inhibitor engages the KMT2A binding pocket of menin. Orthogonal in vitro and in vivo MEN1 mutation generation under therapeutic pressure suggest the MEN1 mutations identified with CRISPR base editor screening are likely to arise and impact all menin inhibitors.
