Pharmacology
Lenalidomide is an immunomodulatory agent that mediates cellular activities through binding to cereblon, a component of a cullin ring E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme complex, leading to degradation of substrate proteins and resulting in direct cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects.
Tazemetostat is a selective inhibitor of EZH2 methyltransferase and certain gain-of-function mutations (Y646X, A682G, A692V), blocking trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 and relieving transcriptional repression that drives tumor growth in epithelioid sarcoma (via SWI/SNF complex dysfunction) and B-cell lymphoma with or without EZH2 mutation.
