BRG1/BRM Inhibitor FHD-286 is an orally bioavailable, allosteric, small molecule inhibitor of transcription activator BRG1 (SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily A member 4; SMARCA4) and BRM (SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily A member 2; SMARCA2), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, BRG1/BRM inhibitor FHD-286 targets, binds to, and inhibits the activity of BRG1 and/or BRM, the primary ATPase components and mutually exclusive subunits of the BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) complexes. This may lead to the inhibition of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, disrupt chromatin remodeling and gene expression, and result in the downregulation of oncogenic pathways and the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. BAF is an important regulator of transcriptional programs and gene expression. Mutations in BAF or its transcription factor partners are found in certain diseases including cancers.
