Abstract

Disclosed herein are heterocyclic compounds that inhibit the binding of menin and MLL or MLL fusion proteins. Also described are specific inhibitors of menin-MLL interaction. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include the compounds. Methods of using the menin-MLL inhibitors are disclosed, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the treatment of autoimmune diseases or conditions, heteroimmune diseases or conditions, cancer, including lymphoma, leukemia and other diseases or conditions dependent on menin-MLL interaction; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

two R groups on the same nitrogen are taken together with their intervening atoms to form a 4-7 membered saturated, partially unsaturated, or heteroaryl ring having 0-3 heteroatoms, in addition to the nitrogen, independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur;

R 5a is H, C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-6 haloalkyl, halo, or CN;

R 6a is H or and C 1-6 alkyl; and

n is 1, 2, 3, or 4.
