BET and EZH2 Inhibitors: Novel Approaches for Targeting Cancer.

Current Oncology Reports 2019 Februrary 5
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Increasing evidence suggests that epigenome plays a central role in cancer development making it a promising target for anticancer treatments. Here, we review two new classes of epigenome-targeting agents: the bromodomain and extraterminal domain proteins (BET) inhibitors and the enhancer of zeste homolog (EZH2) inhibitors.

RECENT FINDINGS: Clinical research evaluating BET and EZH2 inhibitors is still at an early stage; however, both classes of drugs have demonstrated activity among different hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. Several studies on BETi and EZH2i are ongoing to better define their potential role in cancer treatment, which patients are most likely to benefit and if the association with other drugs can improve their efficacy.
