WK369 is a novel BCL6 small molecule inhibitor, which exhibits excellent anti-ovarian cancer bioactivity, induces cell cycle arrest and causes apoptosis. WK369 can directly bind to the BCL6-BTB domain and block the interaction between BCL6 and SMRT, leading to the reactivation of p53, ATR and CDKN1A.
