     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     Histone methyltransferases (HMTs) play a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression. In particular, HMTs are involved in the regulation of cellular division and of cellular differentiation. HMTs mediate the methylation of histones associated with particular genes. Depending on the amino acid residues that are methylated, the methylation event can either signal a silencing event or an activation event for the associated gene. Examples of a silencing mark include the trimethylation of H3K27; whereas, trimethylation of H3K4 results in a gene activating signal. Many cell cycle check point regulators and tumor suppressor genes exist in a “bivalent” state, wherein these contain both activating histone modifications (e.g. H3K27me3) and suppressing histone modifications (e.g. H3K4me3). Genes in a bivalent state are poised to undergo either activation or suppression depending on external factors. EZH2 regulates bivalent genes involved in B-cell differentiation and maturation, including CDKN1, PRDM1, and IRF4. 
     EZH2 is a histone methyltransferase that is the catalytic subunit of the PRC2 complex which catalyzes the mono- through tri-methylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3-K27). Histone H3-K27 trimethylation is a mechanism for suppressing transcription of specific genes that are proximal to the site of histone modification. This trimethylation is known to be a cancer marker with altered expression in cancer, such as prostate cancer (see, e.g., U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003/0175736; incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Other studies provided evidence for a functional link between dysregulated EZH2 expression, transcriptional repression, and neoplastic transformation. Varambally et al. (2002)  Nature  419(6907):624-9 Kleer et al. (2003)  Proc Natl Acad Sci USA  100(20):11606-11. 
     EZH2 methylation activity plays an important role in the regulation and activation of germinal center B-cells. EZH2 protein levels increase following the activation of B-cells. Following activation, B-cells take residence in the germinal center of lymphoid organs, wherein somatic hypermutation occurs, a process associated with the repression of anti-apoptotic genes and check point regulators. EZH2 methylating events target genes that are involved in B-cell proliferation, differentiation and maturation, including CDKN1A (role in cellular proliferation), PRDM1 (role in B-cell differentiation) and IRF4 (role in B-cell differentiation). 
     Genetic alterations within the EZH2 gene are associated with altered histone methylation patterns. For example, certain point mutations in EZH2 are associated with altered methylation of H3K4 in DLBCL; furthermore, chromosomal translocation and fusion, SSX:SS18, is associated with altered H3K27 methylation in synovial sarcoma. EZH2 mutations leading to the conversion of amino acid Y641 (equivalent to Y646, catalytic domain), to either F, N, H, S or C results in hypertrimethylation of H3K27 and drives lymphomagenesis. Additional genetic alterations that affect the methylation of H3K27 include EZH2 SET-domain mutations, overexpression of EZH2, overexpression of other PRC2 subunits, loss of function mutations of histone acetyl transferases (HATs), and loss of function of MLL2. Cells that are heterozygous for EZH2 Y646 mutations result in hypertrimethylation of H3K27 relative to cells that are homozygous wild-type (WT) for the EZH2 protein, or to cells that are homozygous for the Y646 mutation. 
     EPZ-6438 (Compound (A)) is a small molecule inhibitor of EZH2, the catalytic subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 that methylates H3K27. Hypertrimethylation of H3K27 (H3K27Me3) appears tumorigenic in various malignancies, including subsets of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) with mutant EZH2. Inhibition of H3K27Me3 with EPZ-6438 leads to killing of EZH2 mutant lymphoma cells and other EZH2 inhibitors show activity in models of mutant and WT EZH2 NHL. In addition, tumors with loss of INI1, a subunit of the SWI-SNF chromatin remodeling complex, appeared dependent on EZH2. EPZ-6438 was shown to induce apoptosis and differentiation of INI1-deleted malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) models in vitro and in MRT xenograft-bearing mice. 
     This disclosure is based on, at least in part, discovery that Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) inhibitors may effectively treat cancer(s), for example cancer(s) that are characterized by aberrant H3-K27 methylation. 
     An aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing an INI1-negative tumor. The method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of an EZH2 inhibitor to a subject in need thereof. Another aspect relates to a method for treating an INI1-negative tumor. In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for treating an INI1-negative tumor comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of an EZH2 inhibitor to a subject in need thereof, wherein the INI1-negative tumor is selected from rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK), atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, myoepithelial carcinoma, and renal medullary carcinoma. 
     Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing a rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK). In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT). 
     Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing an epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing a myoepithelial carcinoma. Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing a renal medullary carcinoma.

     In one embodiment, the subject is a human being. 
     In one embodiment, the subject is younger than 18 years. In certain embodiments, in any method described herein, the subject is an adult patient aged 18 years or older. 
     In certain embodiments, in any method described herein, the subject is a pediatric patient aged 12 months or younger (e.g., between 3 and 12 months old). 
     In certain embodiments, in any method described herein, the subject is a subject older than 12 months but younger than 18 years old. 
     In any method described herein, the subject can be a pediatric (non-adult) patient aged 3 months to 18 years. 
     In any of the above aspects or embodiments, the disclosure also relates to methods for detecting levels of histone methylation, e.g., H3K27 trimethylation, in a skin biopsy. Histone methylation is detected prior to initiation of treatment, while the subject is receiving treatment, and/or after treatment has concluded. 
     In one embodiment, the compound suitable for the methods disclosed herein is EPZ-6438 (tazemetostat): 
                         
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
 
     EPZ-6438 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as described herein, is potent in targeting both WT and mutant EZH2. EPZ-6438 is orally bioavailable and has high selectivity to EZH2 compared with other histone methyltransferases (i.e. &gt;20,000 fold selectivity by Ki). Importantly, EPZ-6438 has target methyl mark inhibition that results in the killing of genetically defined cancer cells in vitro. Animal models have also shown sustained in vivo efficacy following inhibition of target methyl mark. Clinical trial results described herein also demonstrate the safety and efficacy of EPZ-6438. 
     In one embodiment, EPZ-6438 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered to the subject at a dose of approximately 100 mg to approximately 3200 mg daily, such as about 100 mg BID to about 1600 mg BID (e.g., 100 mg BID, 200 mg BID, 400 mg BID, 800 mg BID, or 1600 mg BID), for treating a NHL. In one embodiment the dose is 800 mg BID.

     In certain embodiments, a compound (e.g., EZH2 inhibitor) that can be used in any methods presented here is CPI-1205 or GSK343. 
     Additional suitable EZH2 inhibitors will be apparent to those skilled in the art. In some embodiments of the strategies, treatment modalities, methods, combinations, and compositions provided herein, the EZH2 inhibitor is an EZH2 inhibitor described in U.S. Pat. No. 8,536,179 (describing GSK-126 among other compounds and corresponding to WO 2011/140324), the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
     In some embodiments of the strategies, treatment modalities, methods, combinations, and compositions provided herein, the EZH2 inhibitor is an EZH2 inhibitor described in PCT/US2014/015706, published as WO 2014/124418, in PCT/US2013/025639, published as WO 2013/120104, and in U.S. Ser. No. 14/839,273, published as US 2015/0368229, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
     In one embodiment, the compound disclosed herein is the compound itself, i.e., the free base or “naked” molecule. In another embodiment, the compound is a salt thereof, e.g., a mono-HCl or tri-HCl salt, mono-HBr or tri-HBr salt of the naked molecule. 
     Compounds disclosed herein that contain nitrogens can be converted to N-oxides by treatment with an oxidizing agent (e.g., 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA) and/or hydrogen peroxides) to afford other compounds suitable for any methods disclosed herein. Thus, all shown and claimed nitrogen-containing compounds are considered, when allowed by valency and structure, to include both the compound as shown and its N-oxide derivative (which can be designated as N→O or N + —O − ). Furthermore, in other instances, the nitrogens in the compounds disclosed herein can be converted to N-hydroxy or N-alkoxy compounds. For example, N-hydroxy compounds can be prepared by oxidation of the parent amine by an oxidizing agent such as m-CPBA. All shown and claimed nitrogen-containing compounds are also considered, when allowed by valency and structure, to cover both the compound as shown and its N-hydroxy (i.e., N—OH) and N-alkoxy (i.e., N—OR, wherein R is substituted or unsubstituted C 1 -C 6  alkyl, C 1 -C 6  alkenyl, C 1 -C 6  alkynyl, 3-14-membered carbocycle or 3-14-membered heterocycle) derivatives. 
     “Isomerism” means compounds that have identical molecular formulae but differ in the sequence of bonding of their atoms or in the arrangement of their atoms in space. Isomers that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “stereoisomers.” Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another are termed “diastereoisomers,” and stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed “enantiomers” or sometimes optical isomers. A mixture containing equal amounts of individual enantiomeric forms of opposite chirality is termed a “racemic mixture.” 
     A carbon atom bonded to four nonidentical substituents is termed a “chiral center.” 
     “Chiral isomer” means a compound with at least one chiral center. Compounds with more than one chiral center may exist either as an individual diastereomer or as a mixture of diastereomers, termed “diastereomeric mixture.” When one chiral center is present, a stereoisomer may be characterized by the absolute configuration (R or S) of that chiral center. Absolute configuration refers to the arrangement in space of the substituents attached to the chiral center. The substituents attached to the chiral center under consideration are ranked in accordance with the Sequence Rule of Cahn, Ingold and Prelog. (Cahn et al.,  Angew. Chem. Inter. Edit.  1966, 5, 385; errata 511; Cahn et al.,  Angew. Chem.  1966, 78, 413; Cahn and Ingold,  J. Chem. Soc.  1951 (London), 612; Cahn et al.,  Experientia  1956, 12, 81; Cahn,  J. Chem. Educ.  1964, 41, 116). 
     “Geometric isomer” means the diastereomers that owe their existence to hindered rotation about double bonds or a cycloalkyl linker (e.g., 1,3-cylcobutyl). These configurations are differentiated in their names by the prefixes cis and trans, or Z and E, which indicate that the groups are on the same or opposite side of the double bond in the molecule according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules. 
     It is to be understood that the compounds disclosed herein may be depicted as different chiral isomers or geometric isomers. It should also be understood that when compounds have chiral isomeric or geometric isomeric forms, all isomeric forms are intended to be included in the scope of the disclosure, and the naming of the compounds does not exclude any isomeric forms. 
     Furthermore, the structures and other compounds discussed in this disclosure include all atropic isomers thereof “Atropic isomers” are a type of stereoisomer in which the atoms of two isomers are arranged differently in space. Atropic isomers owe their existence to a restricted rotation caused by hindrance of rotation of large groups about a central bond. Such atropic isomers typically exist as a mixture, however as a result of recent advances in chromatography techniques, it has been possible to separate mixtures of two atropic isomers in select cases. 
     “Tautomer” is one of two or more structural isomers that exist in equilibrium and is readily converted from one isomeric form to another. This conversion results in the formal migration of a hydrogen atom accompanied by a switch of adjacent conjugated double bonds. Tautomers exist as a mixture of a tautomeric set in solution. In solutions where tautomerization is possible, a chemical equilibrium of the tautomers will be reached. The exact ratio of the tautomers depends on several factors, including temperature, solvent and pH. The concept of tautomers that are interconvertible by tautomerizations is called tautomerism. 
     Of the various types of tautomerism that are possible, two are commonly observed. In keto-enol tautomerism a simultaneous shift of electrons and a hydrogen atom occurs. Ring-chain tautomerism arises as a result of the aldehyde group (—CHO) in a sugar chain molecule reacting with one of the hydroxy groups (—OH) in the same molecule to give it a cyclic (ring-shaped) form as exhibited by glucose. 
     Common tautomeric pairs are: ketone-enol, amide-nitrile, lactam-lactim, amide-imidic acid tautomerism in heterocyclic rings (e.g., in nucleobases such as guanine, thymine and cytosine), imine-enamine and enamine-enamine. An example of keto-enol equilibria is between pyridin-2(1H)-ones and the corresponding pyridin-2-ols, as shown below. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     It is to be understood that the compounds disclosed herein may be depicted as different tautomers. It should also be understood that when compounds have tautomeric forms, all tautomeric forms are intended to be included in the scope of the disclosure, and the naming of the compounds does not exclude any tautomer form. 
     The compounds disclosed herein include the compounds themselves, as well as their salts and their solvates, if applicable. A salt, for example, can be formed between an anion and a positively charged group (e.g., amino) on an aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzene compound. Suitable anions include chloride, bromide, iodide, sulfate, bisulfate, sulfamate, nitrate, phosphate, citrate, methanesulfonate, trifluoroacetate, glutamate, glucuronate, glutarate, malate, maleate, succinate, fumarate, tartrate, tosylate, salicylate, lactate, naphthalenesulfonate, and acetate (e.g., trifluoroacetate). The term “pharmaceutically acceptable anion” refers to an anion suitable for forming a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Likewise, a salt can also be formed between a cation and a negatively charged group (e.g., carboxylate) on an aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzene compound. Suitable cations include sodium ion, potassium ion, magnesium ion, calcium ion, and an ammonium cation such as tetramethylammonium ion. The aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzene compounds also include those salts containing quaternary nitrogen atoms. In the salt form, it is understood that the ratio of the compound to the cation or anion of the salt can be 1:1, or any ration other than 1:1, e.g., 3:1, 2:1, 1:2, or 1:3. 
     Additionally, the compounds disclosed herein, for example, the salts of the compounds, can exist in either hydrated or unhydrated (the anhydrous) form or as solvates with other solvent molecules. Nonlimiting examples of hydrates include monohydrates, dihydrates, etc. Nonlimiting examples of solvates include ethanol solvates, acetone solvates, etc. 
     “Solvate” means solvent addition forms that contain either stoichiometric or non stoichiometric amounts of solvent. Some compounds have a tendency to trap a fixed molar ratio of solvent molecules in the crystalline solid state, thus forming a solvate. If the solvent is water the solvate formed is a hydrate; and if the solvent is alcohol, the solvate formed is an alcoholate. Hydrates are formed by the combination of one or more molecules of water with one molecule of the substance in which the water retains its molecular state as H 2 O. 
     As used herein, the term “analog” refers to a chemical compound that is structurally similar to another but differs slightly in composition (as in the replacement of one atom by an atom of a different element or in the presence of a particular functional group, or the replacement of one functional group by another functional group). Thus, an analog is a compound that is similar or comparable in function and appearance, but not in structure or origin to the reference compound. 
     As defined herein, the term “derivative” refers to compounds that have a common core structure, and are substituted with various groups as described herein. For example, all of the compounds disclosed herein are aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted benzene compounds. 
     The term “bioisostere” refers to a compound resulting from the exchange of an atom or of a group of atoms with another, broadly similar, atom or group of atoms. The objective of a bioisosteric replacement is to create a new compound with similar biological properties to the parent compound. The bioisosteric replacement may be physicochemically or topologically based. Examples of carboxylic acid bioisosteres include, but are not limited to, acyl sulfonimides, tetrazoles, sulfonates and phosphonates. See, e.g., Patani and LaVoie,  Chem. Rev.  96, 3147-3176, 1996. 
     The present disclosure is intended to include all isotopes of atoms occurring in the present compounds. Isotopes include those atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. By way of general example and without limitation, isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium, and isotopes of carbon include C-13 and C-14. 
     In certain aspects, “combination therapy” also embraces the administration of the therapeutic agents as described above in further combination with other biologically active ingredients and non-drug therapies (e.g., surgery or radiation treatment). Where the combination therapy further comprises a non-drug treatment, the non-drug treatment may be conducted at any suitable time so long as a beneficial effect from the co-action of the combination of the therapeutic agents and non-drug treatment is achieved. For example, in appropriate cases, the beneficial effect is still achieved when the non-drug treatment is temporally removed from the administration of the therapeutic agents, perhaps by days or even weeks. 
     In another aspect, a composition disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, analog or derivative thereof, may be administered in combination with radiation therapy. Radiation therapy can also be administered in combination with a composition disclosed herein and another chemotherapeutic agent described herein as part of a multiple agent therapy. 
     A “pharmaceutical composition” is a formulation containing a compound in a form suitable for administration to a subject. A compound disclosed herein and one or more other therapeutic agents described herein each can be formulated individually or in multiple pharmaceutical compositions in any combinations of the active ingredients. Accordingly, one or more administration routes can be properly elected based on the dosage form of each pharmaceutical composition. Alternatively, a compound disclosed herein and one or more other therapeutic agents described herein can be formulated as one pharmaceutical composition. 
     In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition is in bulk or in unit dosage form. The unit dosage form is any of a variety of forms, including, for example, a capsule, an IV bag, a tablet, a single pump on an aerosol inhaler or a vial. The quantity of active ingredient (e.g., a formulation of the disclosed compound or salt, hydrate, solvate or isomer thereof) in a unit dose of composition is an effective amount and is varied according to the particular treatment involved. One skilled in the art will appreciate that it is sometimes necessary to make routine variations to the dosage depending on the age and condition of the patient. The dosage will also depend on the route of administration. A variety of routes are contemplated, including oral, pulmonary, rectal, parenteral, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, inhalational, buccal, sublingual, intrapleural, intrathecal, intranasal, and the like. Dosage forms for the topical or transdermal administration of a compound of this disclosure include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches and inhalants. In one embodiment, the active compound is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that are required. 
     “Pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” means an excipient that is useful in preparing a pharmaceutical composition that is generally safe, non-toxic and neither biologically nor otherwise undesirable, and includes excipient that is acceptable for veterinary use as well as human pharmaceutical use. A “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” as used in the specification and claims includes both one and more than one such excipient. 
     A pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein is formulated to be compatible with its intended route of administration. Examples of routes of administration include parenteral, e.g., intravenous, intradermal, subcutaneous, oral (e.g., inhalation), transdermal (topical), and transmucosal administration. Solutions or suspensions used for parenteral, intradermal, or subcutaneous application can include the following components: a sterile diluent such as water for injection, saline solution, fixed oils, polyethylene glycols, glycerin, propylene glycol or other synthetic solvents; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl parabens; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; buffers such as acetates, citrates or phosphates, and agents for the adjustment of tonicity such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The pH can be adjusted with acids or bases, such as hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide. The parenteral preparation can be enclosed in ampoules, disposable syringes or multiple dose vials made of glass or plastic. 
     A composition disclosed herein can be administered to a subject in many of the well-known methods currently used for chemotherapeutic treatment. For example, for treatment of cancers, a compound disclosed herein may be injected directly into tumors, injected into the blood stream or body cavities or taken orally or applied through the skin with patches. The dose chosen should be sufficient to constitute effective treatment but not so high as to cause unacceptable side effects. The state of the disease condition (e.g., cancer, precancer, and the like) and the health of the patient should preferably be closely monitored during and for a reasonable period after treatment. 
     In certain embodiments the therapeutically effective amount of each pharmaceutical agent used in combination will be lower when used in combination in comparison to monotherapy with each agent alone. Such lower therapeutically effective amount could afford for lower toxicity of the therapeutic regimen. 
     For any compound, the therapeutically effective amount can be estimated initially either in cell culture assays, e.g., of neoplastic cells, or in animal models, usually rats, mice, rabbits, dogs, or pigs. The animal model may also be used to determine the appropriate concentration range and route of administration. Such information can then be used to determine useful doses and routes for administration in humans. Therapeutic/prophylactic efficacy and toxicity may be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, e.g., ED 50  (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population) and LD 50  (the dose lethal to 50% of the population). The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, and it can be expressed as the ratio, LD 50 /ED 50 . Pharmaceutical compositions that exhibit large therapeutic indices are preferred. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed, sensitivity of the patient, and the route of administration. 
     Dosage and administration are adjusted to provide sufficient levels of the active agent(s) or to maintain the desired effect. Factors which may be taken into account include the severity of the disease state, general health of the subject, age, weight, and gender of the subject, diet, time and frequency of administration, drug combination(s), reaction sensitivities, and tolerance/response to therapy. Long-acting pharmaceutical compositions may be administered every 3 to 4 days, every week, or once every two weeks depending on half-life and clearance rate of the particular formulation. 
     In any method or formulation (e.g., an oral dosage form) described herein, in one embodiment, said cancer is advanced, refractory or resistant cancer. In any method or formulation (e.g., an oral dosage form) described herein, in one embodiment, said cancer is an INI1-deficient tumor. 
     INT1 is a critical component of the SWI/SNF regulatory complex, a chromatin remodeler that acts in opposition to EZH2. INI1-negative tumors have altered SWI/SNF function, resulting in aberrant and oncogenic EZH2 activity. This activity can be targeted by small molecule inhibitors of EZH2 such as tazemetostat. INI1-negative tumors are generally aggressive and are poorly served by current treatments. For example, current treatment of MRT, a well-studied INI1-negative tumor, consists of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, which are associated with limited efficacy and significant treatment-related morbidity. 
     In any method or formulation (e.g., an oral dosage form) described herein, in one embodiment, the subject is human.

     Other compounds suitable for the methods of the disclosure are described in U.S. Publication 20120264734, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. Further, Compound (A) is suitable for administration as part of a combination therapy with one or more other therapeutic agents or treatment modality, suitable to be administered together, sequentially, or in alternation. 
     In one embodiment, Compound (A) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered to the subject at a dose of approximately 100 mg to approximately 3200 mg daily, such as about 100 mg BID to about 1600 mg BID (e.g., 100 mg BID, 200 mg BID, 400 mg BID, 800 mg BID, or 1600 mg BID), for treating INT1-negative tumor (e.g., rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK), atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, myoepithelial carcinoma, and renal medullary carcinoma). 
     The use of the articles “a”, “an”, and “the” herein are to be construed to cover both the singular and the plural, unless otherwise indicated herein or clearly contradicted by context. For example, the term “a disintegrant” refers to one or more disintegrants included in or suitable for use in the formulation described herein. Similarly, the term “a therapeutic agent” refers to one or more therapeutic agents included in or suitable for use in the formulation described herein. For example, the formulation described herein can include Compound (A) alone as the therapeutic agent or active ingredient or include a mixture of Compound (A) and another compound (e.g., HBr salt of Compound (A) or another anticancer drug). The terms “comprising”, “having”, “including”, and “containing” are to be construed as open terms (i.e., meaning “including but not limited to”) unless otherwise noted. Additionally whenever “comprising” or another open-ended term is used in an embodiment, it is to be understood that the same embodiment can be more narrowly claimed using the intermediate term “consisting essentially of” or the closed term “consisting of.” 
     The concentration of the therapeutic agent in the formulation is expressed as equivalent to a certain amount of Compound (A). As used herein, the term “equivalent” amount or weight percentage refers to the quantity of the drug substance that is adjusted as per potency adjustment factor, a value derived for the assay value obtained from Compound (A). Methods for determining the equivalent amount are well known in the art (see, e.g., http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/ . . . /Guidances/ucm070246.pdf). 
     The term “about”, “approximately”, or “approximate”, when used in connection with a numerical value, means that a collection or ranger of values is included. For example, “about X” includes a range of values that are ±10%, ±5%, ±2%, ±1%, ±0.5%, ±0.2%, or ±0.1% of X, where X is a numerical value. In addition, “about X” may also include a range of X±0.5, X±0.4, X±0.3, X±0.2, or X±0.1, where X is a numerical value. In one embodiment, the term “about” refers to a range of values which are 5% more or less than the specified value. In another embodiment, the term “about” refers to a range of values which are 2% more or less than the specified value. In another embodiment, the term “about” refers to a range of values which are 1% more or less than the specified value. 
     In the present specification, the structural formula of the compound represents a certain isomer for convenience in some cases, but the present disclosure includes all isomers, such as geometrical isomers, optical isomers based on an asymmetrical carbon, stereoisomers, tautomers, and the like. In addition, a crystal polymorphism may be present for the compounds represented by the formula. It is noted that any crystal form, crystal form mixture, or anhydride or hydrate thereof is included in the scope of the present disclosure. Furthermore, so-called metabolite which is produced by degradation of the present compound in vivo is included in the scope of the present disclosure. 
     Furthermore, the structures and other compounds discussed in this disclosure include all atropic isomers thereof “Atropic isomers” are a type of stereoisomer in which the atoms of two isomers are arranged differently in space. Atropic isomers owe their existence to a restricted rotation caused by hindrance of rotation of large groups about a central bond. Such atropic isomers typically exist as a mixture, however as a result of recent advances in chromatography techniques, it has been possible to separate mixtures of two atropic isomers in select cases. 
     The term “crystal polymorphs”, “polymorphs” or “crystalline forms” means crystal structures in which a compound (or a salt or solvate thereof) can crystallize in different crystal packing arrangements, all of which have the same elemental composition. Different crystal forms usually have different XRPD patterns, infrared spectral, melting points, density hardness, crystal shape, optical and electrical properties, stability and solubility. Recrystallization solvent, rate of crystallization, storage temperature, and other factors may cause one crystal form to dominate. Crystal polymorphs of the compounds can be prepared by crystallization under different conditions. 
     Compounds of the disclosure may be crystalline, semi-crystalline, non-crystalline, amorphous, mesomorphous, etc. 
     Additionally, the compounds or crystalline forms of the present disclosure, for example, the salts of the compounds or crystalline forms, can exist in either hydrated or unhydrated (the anhydrous) form or as solvates with other solvent molecules. Nonlimiting examples of hydrates include hemihydrates, monohydrates, dihydrates, trihydrates, etc. Nonlimiting examples of solvates include ethanol solvates, acetone solvates, etc. 
     “Solvate” means solvent addition forms that contain either stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts of solvent. Some compounds have a tendency to trap a fixed molar ratio of solvent molecules in the crystalline solid state, thus forming a solvate. If the solvent is water the solvate formed is a hydrate; and if the solvent is alcohol, the solvate formed is an alcoholate. Hydrates are formed by the combination of one or more molecules of water with one molecule of the substance in which the water retains its molecular state as H 2 O. A hemihydrate is formed by the combination of one molecule of water with more than one molecule of the substance in which the water retains its molecular state as H 2 O. 
     The present disclosure is intended to include all isotopes of atoms occurring in the present compounds. Isotopes include those atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. By way of general example and without limitation, isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium, and isotopes of carbon include C-13 and C-14. 
     As used herein, a “subject” is interchangeable with a “subject in need thereof”, both of which refer to a subject having a disorder in which EZH2-mediated protein methylation plays a part, or a subject having an increased risk of developing such disorder relative to the population at large. A “subject” includes a mammal. The mammal can be e.g., a human or appropriate non-human mammal, such as primate, mouse, rat, dog, cat, cow, horse, goat, camel, sheep or a pig. The subject can also be a bird or fowl. In one embodiment, the mammal is a human. A subject in need thereof can be one who has been previously diagnosed or identified as having cancer or a precancerous condition. A subject in need thereof can also be one who has (e.g., is suffering from) cancer or a precancerous condition. Alternatively, a subject in need thereof can be one who has an increased risk of developing such disorder relative to the population at large (i.e., a subject who is predisposed to developing such disorder relative to the population at large). A subject in need thereof can have a precancerous condition. A subject in need thereof has an INI1-negative tumor. 
     INI1 is a regulatory complex that opposes the enzymatic function of EZH2. Due to a variety of genetic alterations, INT1 loses its regulatory function. As a result, EZH2 activity is misregulated, causing EZH2 to play a driving, oncogenic role in a set of genetically defined cancers that include rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK), atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, myoepithelial carcinoma, and renal medullary carcinoma. 
     A subject in need thereof can have refractory or resistant cancer (i.e., cancer that doesn&#39;t respond or hasn&#39;t yet responded to treatment). The subject may be resistant at start of treatment or may become resistant during treatment. In some embodiments, the subject in need thereof has cancer recurrence following remission on most recent therapy. In some embodiments, the subject in need thereof received and failed all known effective therapies for cancer treatment. In some embodiments, the subject in need thereof received at least one prior therapy. In a preferred embodiment, the subject has cancer or a cancerous condition. 
     In certain embodiments, in any method described herein, the subject is an adult patient aged 18 years or older.

     In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition is in bulk or in unit dosage form. The term “unit dosage form” as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. The unit dosage form is any of a variety of forms, including, for example, an IV bag, a tablet, a single pump on an aerosol inhaler or a vial. The quantity of active ingredient (e.g., a formulation of the disclosed compound or salt, hydrate, solvate or isomer thereof) in a unit dose of composition is an effective amount and is varied according to the particular treatment involved. One skilled in the art will appreciate that it is sometimes necessary to make routine variations to the dosage depending on the age and condition of the patient. The dosage will also depend on the route of administration. A variety of routes are contemplated, including oral, pulmonary, rectal, parenteral, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, inhalational, buccal, sublingual, intrapleural, intrathecal, intranasal, and the like. Dosage forms for the topical or transdermal administration of a compound of this disclosure include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches and inhalants. In one embodiment, the active compound is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that are required.

     The term “therapeutically effective amount”, as used herein, refers to an amount of a pharmaceutical agent to treat, ameliorate, or prevent an identified disease or condition, or to exhibit a detectable therapeutic or inhibitory effect. The effect can be detected by any assay method known in the art. The precise effective amount for a subject will depend upon the subject&#39;s body weight, size, and health; the nature and extent of the condition; and the therapeutic selected for administration. Therapeutically effective amounts for a given situation can be determined by routine experimentation that is within the skill and judgment of the clinician. 
     The pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure containing active compounds may be manufactured in a manner that is generally known, e.g., by means of conventional mixing, dissolving, granulating, dragee-making, levigating, emulsifying, encapsulating, entrapping, or lyophilizing processes. Pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a conventional manner using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers comprising excipients and/or auxiliaries that facilitate processing of the active compounds into preparations that can be used pharmaceutically. Of course, the appropriate formulation is dependent upon the route of administration chosen. 
     Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions (where water soluble) or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersion. For intravenous administration, suitable carriers include physiological saline, bacteriostatic water, Cremophor EL™ (BASF, Parsippany, N.J.) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS). In all cases, the composition must be sterile and should be fluid to the extent that easy syringeability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, and sodium chloride in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by including in the composition an agent which delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin. 
     Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the active compound in the required amount in an appropriate solvent with one or a combination of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtered sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the active compound into a sterile vehicle that contains a basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, methods of preparation are vacuum drying and freeze-drying that yields a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution thereof. 
     Oral compositions generally include an inert diluent or an edible pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. They can be enclosed in gelatin capsules or compressed into tablets. For the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active compound can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, troches, or capsules. Oral compositions can also be prepared using a fluid carrier for use as a mouthwash, wherein the compound in the fluid carrier is applied orally and swished and expectorated or swallowed. Pharmaceutically compatible binding agents, and/or adjuvant materials can be included as part of the composition. The tablets, pills, capsules, troches and the like can contain any of the following ingredients, or compounds of a similar nature: a binder such as microcrystalline cellulose, gum tragacanth or gelatin; an excipient such as starch or lactose, a disintegrating agent such as alginic acid, Primogel, or corn starch; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or Sterotes; a glidant such as colloidal silicon dioxide; a sweetening agent such as sucrose or saccharin; or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring. 
     For administration by inhalation, the compounds are delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from pressured container or dispenser, which contains a suitable propellant, e.g., a gas such as carbon dioxide, or a nebulizer. 
     Systemic administration can also be by transmucosal or transdermal means. For transmucosal or transdermal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art, and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, detergents, bile salts, and fusidic acid derivatives. Transmucosal administration can be accomplished through the use of nasal sprays or suppositories. For transdermal administration, the active compounds are formulated into ointments, salves, gels, or creams as generally known in the art. 
     The active compounds can be prepared with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers that will protect the compound against rapid elimination from the body, such as a controlled release formulation, including implants and microencapsulated delivery systems. Biodegradable, biocompatible polymers can be used, such as ethylene vinyl acetate, polyanhydrides, polyglycolic acid, collagen, polyorthoesters, and polylactic acid. Methods for preparation of such formulations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The materials can also be obtained commercially from Alza Corporation and Nova Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to infected cells with monoclonal antibodies to viral antigens) can also be used as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These can be prepared according to methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,811. 
     It is especially advantageous to formulate oral or parenteral compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. The specification for the dosage unit forms disclosed herein are dictated by and directly dependent on the unique characteristics of the active compound and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved. 
     In therapeutic applications, the dosages of the EZH2 inhibitor compounds described herein, or the pharmaceutical compositions used in accordance with the disclosure vary depending on the agent, the age, weight, and clinical condition of the recipient patient, and the experience and judgment of the clinician or practitioner administering the therapy, among other factors affecting the selected dosage. Generally, the dose should be sufficient to result in slowing, and preferably regressing, the growth of the tumors and also preferably causing complete regression of the cancer. Dosages can range from about 0.01 mg/kg per day to about 5000 mg/kg per day. In preferred aspects, dosages can range from about 1 mg/kg per day to about 1000 mg/kg per day. In an aspect, the dose will be in the range of about 0.1 mg/day to about 50 g/day; about 0.1 mg/day to about 25 g/day; about 0.1 mg/day to about 10 g/day; about 0.1 mg to about 3 g/day; or about 0.1 mg to about 1 g/day, in single, divided, or continuous doses (which dose may be adjusted for the patient&#39;s weight in kg, body surface area in m 2 , and age in years). An effective amount of a pharmaceutical agent is that which provides an objectively identifiable improvement as noted by the clinician or other qualified observer. For example, regression of a tumor in a patient may be measured with reference to the diameter of a tumor. Decrease in the diameter of a tumor indicates regression. Regression is also indicated by failure of tumors to reoccur after treatment has stopped. As used herein, the term “dosage effective manner” refers to amount of an active compound to produce the desired biological effect in a subject or cell. 
     It is especially advantageous to formulate oral compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. The specification for the dosage unit forms of the disclosure are dictated by and directly dependent on the unique characteristics of the active Compound (A) and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved. 
     In therapeutic applications, the dosages of the pharmaceutical compositions used in accordance with the disclosure vary depending on the agent, the age, weight, and clinical condition of the recipient patient, and the experience and judgment of the clinician or practitioner administering the therapy, among other factors affecting the selected dosage.

In one embodiment, the compound is administered orally. One skilled in the art will recognize the advantages of certain routes of administration. 
     The dosage regimen utilizing the compounds is selected in accordance with a variety of factors including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of the patient; the severity of the condition to be treated; the route of administration; the renal and hepatic function of the patient; and the particular compound or salt thereof employed. An ordinarily skilled physician or veterinarian can readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the drug required to prevent, counter, or arrest the progress of the condition. 
     Techniques for formulation and administration of the disclosed compounds of the disclosure can be found in  Remington: the Science and Practice of Pharmacy,  19 th  edition, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa. (1995).

Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include inert solid fillers or diluents and sterile aqueous or organic solutions. The compounds will be present in such pharmaceutical compositions in amounts sufficient to provide the desired dosage amount in the range described herein. 
     Cancer is a group of diseases that may cause almost any sign or symptom.

     As used herein, the term “selectively” means tending to occur at a higher frequency in one population than in another population. The compared populations can be cell populations. Preferably, a compound disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, acts selectively on a cancer or precancerous cell but not on a normal cell. Preferably, a compound disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, acts selectively to modulate one molecular target (e.g., a target protein methyltransferase) but does not significantly modulate another molecular target (e.g., a non-target protein methyltransferase). The disclosure also provides a method for selectively inhibiting the activity of an enzyme, such as a protein methyltransferase. Preferably, an event occurs selectively in population A relative to population B if it occurs greater than two times more frequently in population A as compared to population B. An event occurs selectively if it occurs greater than five times more frequently in population A. An event occurs selectively if it occurs greater than ten times more frequently in population A; more preferably, greater than fifty times; even more preferably, greater than 100 times; and most preferably, greater than 1000 times more frequently in population A as compared to population B. For example, cell death would be said to occur selectively in cancer cells if it occurred greater than twice as frequently in cancer cells as compared to normal cells. 
     A composition disclosed herein does not significantly modulate the activity of a molecular target if the addition of the compound does not stimulate or inhibit the activity of the molecular target by greater than 10% relative to the activity of the molecular target under the same conditions but lacking only the presence of said compound. 
     As used herein, the term “isozyme selective” means preferential inhibition or stimulation of a first isoform of an enzyme in comparison to a second isoform of an enzyme (e.g., preferential inhibition or stimulation of a protein methyltransferase isozyme alpha in comparison to a protein methyltransferase isozyme beta). Preferably, a compound disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, demonstrates a minimum of a fourfold differential, preferably a tenfold differential, more preferably a fifty fold differential, in the dosage required to achieve a biological effect. Preferably, a compound disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, demonstrates this differential across the range of inhibition, and the differential is exemplified at the IC 50 , i.e., a 50% inhibition, for a molecular target of interest.

     Administering a compound disclosed herein, e.g., a composition comprising any compound disclosed herein or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more other therapeutic agents, such as prednisone, to a cell or a subject in need thereof results in modulation (i.e., stimulation or inhibition) of an activity of an intracellular target (e.g., substrate). Several intracellular targets can be modulated with the compounds disclosed herein, including, but not limited to, protein methyltrasferase. 
     Activating refers to placing a composition of matter (e.g., protein or nucleic acid) in a state suitable for carrying out a desired biological function. A composition of matter capable of being activated also has an unactivated state. An activated composition of matter may have an inhibitory or stimulatory biological function, or both. 
     Elevation refers to an increase in a desired biological activity of a composition of matter (e.g., a protein or a nucleic acid). Elevation may occur through an increase in concentration of a composition of matter. 
     Treating cancer or a cell proliferative disorder can result in cell death, and preferably, cell death results in a decrease of at least 10% in number of cells in a population. More preferably, cell death means a decrease of at least 20%; more preferably, a decrease of at least 30%; more preferably, a decrease of at least 40%; more preferably, a decrease of at least 50%; most preferably, a decrease of at least 75%. Number of cells in a population may be measured by any reproducible means. A number of cells in a population can be measured by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS), immunofluorescence microscopy and light microscopy. Methods of measuring cell death are as shown in Li et al.,  Proc Natl Acad Sci USA.  100(5): 2674-8, 2003. In an aspect, cell death occurs by apoptosis. 
     Preferably, an effective amount of a composition disclosed herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, is not significantly cytotoxic to normal cells. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound is not significantly cytotoxic to normal cells if administration of the compound in a therapeutically effective amount does not induce cell death in greater than 10% of normal cells. A therapeutically effective amount of a compound does not significantly affect the viability of normal cells if administration of the compound in a therapeutically effective amount does not induce cell death in greater than 10% of normal cells. In an aspect, cell death occurs by apoptosis.

     Unless otherwise clear from the context, all numerical values provided herein are modified by the term “about.” 
     EXAMPLE 
     Example 1 
     INI1 is a critical component of the SWI/SNF regulatory complex, a chromatin remodeler that acts in opposition to EZH2. INI1-negative tumors have altered SWI/SNF function, resulting in aberrant and oncogenic EZH2 activity. This activity can be targeted by small molecule inhibitors of EZH2 such as tazemetostat. INI1-negative tumors are generally aggressive and are poorly served by current treatments. For example, current treatment of MRT, a well-studied INI1-negative tumor, consists of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, which are associated with limited efficacy and significant treatment-related morbidity. 
     The adult phase 2 multicenter study will enroll up to 90 patients in three cohorts. The first cohort will be comprised of patients with malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT), rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK) and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT). The second cohort will be comprised of patients with other INI1-negative tumors including epithelioid sarcoma, epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma, myoepithelial carcinoma, and renal medullary carcinoma. The third cohort will be comprised of patients with synovial sarcoma. Dosing in all three cohorts will be at the recommended phase 2 dose of 800 mg twice per day (BID) with a tablet formulation. The primary endpoint is overall response rate (ORR) for patients with INI1-negative tumors and progression-free survival (PFS) for patients with synovial sarcoma. Secondary endpoints include duration of response, overall survival (OS), PFS for patients with INI1-negative tumors, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK). 
     The pediatric phase 1 multicenter study will enroll approximately 40 patients in a dose escalation design, followed by dose expansion, with an oral suspension of tazemetostat. The study will enroll subjects with INI1-negative tumors or synovial sarcoma. INI1-negative tumors include MRT, ATRT, RTK, and other INI1-negative tumors as previously described. The primary endpoint of study is safety with the objective of establishing the recommended phase 2 dose in pediatric patients. Secondary endpoints include PK, ORR, duration of response, PFS and OS. 
     The disclosure can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. The foregoing embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects illustrative rather than limiting on the disclosure described herein. Scope of the disclosure is thus indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes that come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are intended to be embraced therein.
