Edoxaban (DU-176b, trade names Savaysa, Lixiana) is a selective factor Xa inhibitor reduces thrombin generation and thrombus formation and is an orally bioavailable anticoagulant drug. It was developed by Daiichi Sankyo to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism following 5-10 days of initial therapy with a parenteral anticoagulant.

Palbociclib is an oral, reversible, selective, small-molecule inhibitor of CDK4 and CDK6 indicated in combination with letrozole for the treatment of postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer as initial endocrine-based therapy for their metastatic disease. CDK4 and CDK6 along with their regulatory partner cyclin D1 play a key role in regulating the G1- to S-phase cell-cycle transition via regulation of phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein. Inhibition of these proteins leads to reduced phosphorylation of Rb, inhibition of downstream signalling, and increased tumor growth arrest. Palbociclib received an accelerated approval from the Food and Drug Administration on February 3, 2015. Palbociclib is marketed under the trade name Ibrance. IBRANCE is a kinase inhibitor indicated in combination with letrozole for the treatment of postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer as initial endocrine-based therapy for their metastatic disease.

Cangrelor is a P2Y12 inhibitor that has been approved as an antiplatelet drug. It is marketed in the US under the brand name Kengreal and in Europe as Kengrexal. Cangrelor is an intravenous, direct-acting reversible P2Y12 inhibitor for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Sacubitril is a prodrug neprilysin inhibitor used in combination with valsartan (sold under the brand name Entresto among others) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with chronic heart failure (NYHA Class II-IV) and reduced ejection fraction. It was approved under the FDA's priority review process for use in heart failure on July 7, 2015. Sacubitril's active metabolite, LBQ657 inhibits neprilysin, a neutral endopeptidase that would typically cleave natiuretic peptides such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and c-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). ANP and BNP are released under atrial and ventricle stress, which activate downstream receptors leading to vasodilation, natriuresis and diuresis. Under normal conditions, neprilysin breaks down other vasodilating peptides and also vasoconstrictors such as angiotensin I and II, endothelin-1 and peptide amyloid beta-protein. Inhibition of neprilysin therefore leads to reduced breakdown and increased concentration of endogenous natriuretic peptides in addition to increased levels of vasoconstricting hormones such as angiotensin II.

Avibactam (formerly NXL104, AVE1330A) is a synthetic non-β-lactam, covalent, slowly reversible β-lactamase inhibitor that inhibits the activities of Ambler class A and C β-lactamases and some Ambler class D enzymes. The combination of ceftazidime with avibactam exhibited broad-spectrum activity against Ambler class A- and class C-producing Enterobacteriaceae. AVYCAZ is a combination of ceftazidime, a cephalosporin, and avibactam indicated for the treatment of patients with the following infections caused by designated susceptible microorganisms: Complicated Intra-abdominal Infections, used in combination with metronidazole and Complicated Urinary Tract Infections, including Pyelonephritis.

Suvorexant is a selective dual antagonist of orexin receptors OX1R and OX2R. It has been approved for the treatment of insomnia. The mechanism by which suvorexant exerts its therapeutic effect in insomnia is presumed to be through antagonism of orexin receptors. The orexin neuropeptide signaling system is a central promoter of wakefulness. Blocking the binding of wake-promoting neuropeptides orexin A and orexin B to receptors OX1R and OX2R is thought to suppress wake drive.

Olaparib is an oral inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase enzymes, including PARP1, PARP2, and PARP3 which are involved in normal cellular homeostasis, such as DNA transcription, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair. Olaparib has shown activity in ovarian and breast tumors with known BRCA mutations and was the first FDA approved drug in this class. Lynparza (olaparib) is indicated for treatment of gBRCA-mutated advanced ovarian cancer. Its use together with other chemotherapy medicines can lead to increased effects on the blood resulting in reduction in the numbers of white blood cells and platelets, and anaemia.

Nintedanib is a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potential antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activities. It is the only kinase inhibitor drug approved to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. that targets multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and non-receptor tyrosine kinases (nRTKs). Nintedanib inhibits the following RTKs: platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) α and β, fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1-3, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) 1-3, and Fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3). Among them, FGFR, PDGFR, and VEGFR have been implicated in IPF pathogenesis. Nintedanib binds competitively to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding pocket of these receptors and blocks the intracellular signaling which is crucial for the proliferation, migration, and transformation of fibroblasts representing essential mechanisms of the IPF pathology.
