Sodium glucaspaldrate is an anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent.

Ciraparantag (PER-977, aripazine), developed by Perosphere Inc., is a small, synthetic, water-soluble, cationic molecule and can reverse the anticoagulation mediated by unfractionated heparin, low-molecular-weight heparin, factor Xa and factor IIa inhibitors, and fondaparinux. It has the potential to be a universal antidote, inhibiting nearly all anticoagulants except vitamin K antagonists and argatroban. In April 2015, ciraparantag received FDA fast-track designation as an investigational anticoagulant reversal agent. Phase I/II trials are currently underway to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PER977 in reversing anticoagulation of edoxaban, LMWH, and UFH.2.

Metoxepin was developed as an antiemetic, neuroleptic and antihistamine agent. This drug has never been marketed.

Procodazole is a non-specific active immunoprotective agent against viral and bacterial infections

Acridine carboxamide (XR5000) is a tricyclic acridine-based (or carboxamide-based) drug with dual topoisomerase inhibitor and potential antineoplastic activities. Acridine carboxamide inhibits both topoisomerases I and II and intercalates into DNA, resulting in DNA damage, the disruption of DNA repair and replication, the inhibition of RNA and protein synthesis, and cell death. Acridine carboxamide has been used in trials studying the treatment of lung cancer and brain and central nervous system tumors. In clinical trials acridine carboxamide did not show efficacy when tested against various types of cancers.

Rivipansel (GMI-1070) is a glycomimetic compound that acts as a pan-selectin inhibitor (binding to E-, P- and L-selectin). It has a 100-fold greater inhibitory acitivity for E-selectin than for P-selectin. In a phase II clinical trial, rivipansel has shown potential to reduce time of resolution for vaso-occlusive crises (although statistically insignificant) and to reduce opioid analgesic use in sickle cell disease patients. Two phase III studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of rivipansel in sickle cell disease patients were still ongoing in 2019. Besides studies in sickle cell disease or related disorders, clinical trials have also evaluated the use of rivipansel in moderate hepatic and renal impairment.

Peficitinib (formerly known as ASP015K) is a pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine derivative orally administered once-daily JAK inhibitor in development for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. In preclinical studied Peficitinib inhibited JAK1 and JAK3 with IC50 of 3.9 and 0.7 nM, respectively. Peficitinib also inhibited IL-2-dependent T cell proliferation in vitro and STAT5 phosphorylation in vitro and ex vivo. Furthermore, Peficitinib dose-dependently suppressed bone destruction and paw swelling in an adjuvant-induced arthritis model in rats via prophylactic or therapeutic oral dosing regimens.In clinical trials, Peficitinib treatment prescribed at 50, 100 and 150 mg amounts each showed statistically significantly higher ACR20 response rates compared to the placebo and response rates increased up to the 150 mg dosage. Adverse events included neutropenia, headache, and abdominal pain. The treatment-emergent adverse events occurring more frequently in the Peficitinib group compared with the placebo group included diarrhea, nasopharyngitis, and increased serum creatine phosphokinase activity. No cases of serious infections were reported. Herpes zoster occurred in four patients (two each in the peficitinib 25 and 100 mg cohorts). The authors concluded that treatment with peficitinib as monotherapy for 12 weeks in Japanese patients with moderate to severe RA is efficacious and showed an acceptable safety profile.

Axelopran (previously known as TD-1211), a peripherally selective, multivalent µ-opioid receptor antagonist that is under development by Theravance Biopharma. This drug participated in phase II clinical trials in subjects with opioid-induced constipation. The most common adverse events were abdominal pain, nausea, and diarrhea. There were no indications of opioid withdrawal effects or reductions in opioid analgesia in patients treated with axelopran.

Senazodan (previously known as MCI 154), a positive inotropic agent that inhibits phosphodiesterase III and possesses a vasodilating property. Senazodan was studied in the phase II clinical trial in Japan in patients with acute heart failure. However, this study was discontinued.
