Henagliflozin (also known as SHR3824) was developed by Jiangsu HengRui Medicine as a sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This drug successfully passed phase I clinical trials, however, information about further development is not available.

Totrombopag is an orally bioavailable, nonpeptide, small-molecule thrombopoietin receptor agonist. It induces proliferation and differentiation of megakaryocytes and progenitor cells, ultimately increasing the production of platelets. Totrombopag has been investigated in healthy volunteers in a phase 1, single-blind, randomized fashion to cause a dosedependent increase in platelet count with demonstrated safety. There were no serious adverse events, no significant changes in laboratory or cardiovascular safety parameters and there was no observed relationship between the incidence or severity of adverse events and dose. Most adverse events were mild in intensity and self-limiting. Totrombopag was developed for the treatment of immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

CRS-3123, also known as REP-3123, is a methionyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitor potentially for the treatment of enteric infections. CRS-3123 is in Phase 1 clinical development for the treatment of Clostridium difficile Infection (CDI). CRS-3123 is a small molecule protein synthesis inhibitor that acts on the novel target methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetRS). REP-3123 has been shown to be active in vitro against clinical isolates of C. difficile including epidemic strains such as B1/ NAP1/027; MIC values of REP-3123 for C. difficile are typically 0.5 -- 1.0 mg/l. REP-3123 is also active against a range of clinically important aerobic Gram-positive bacteria including methicillin-susceptible and -resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MIC90 values of 0.06 and 0.25 mg/l, respectively), Streptococcus pyogenes (MIC90 0.5 mg/l) and enterococci (MIC90 32 mg/l). CRS-3123 has numerous potential advantages over current CDI therapies. In addition to being highly potent against all clinical isolates of C. difficile tested, CRS-3123 has several desirable qualities for the treatment of CDI which include: Narrow spectrum for C. difficile, which may substantially reduce the disruption of normal intestinal flora compared to current therapies; Inhibition of toxin production, potentially leading to lower morbidity and mortality; Inhibition of sporulation, potentially leading to lower rates of transmission and recurrence; A novel mechanism of action, which means that its use will not compromise the utility of systemic antibiotics while maintaining activity against pre-existing resistance mechanisms.
