Abstract
Benzamides and picolinamides that are meta-substituted with imino-, guanidino-, or heterocycle-containing groups disrupt the WDR5-MLL1 protein-protein interaction, and have use in pharmaceutical compositions and in treating proliferative disorders and conditions in a subject, such as cancer.
