Camptothecin-20(S)-O-propionate (CZ48) is a prodrug of camptothecin, an alkaloid isolated from the Chinese tree Camptotheca acuminata, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon entry into cells, camptothecin-20(S)-O-propionate is hydrolyzed by esterases into the active form camptothecin. Camptothecin selectively stabilizes topoisomerase I-DNA covalent complexes, thereby inhibiting religation of topoisomerase I-mediated single-strand DNA breaks and producing potentially lethal double-strand DNA breaks when encountered by the DNA replication machinery. CZ48 is being investigated in clinical trials for the treatment of advanced solid tumors and lymphomas.

PND-1186, also known as SR-2156 and VS-4718, is a potent FAK inhibitor with a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 1.5 nM in vitro. PND-1186 has an IC50 of ~100 nM in breast carcinoma cells. PND-1186 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 trial in patients with advanced solid tumors. In addition, an ongoing collaboration with Wash U is evaluating PND-1186 in combination with gemcitabine and Abraxane in 1st line pancreatic cancer.

Milataxel, a taxane that binds to and stabilizes tubulin, resulting in the inhibition of microtubule depolymerization. Milataxel has completed phase II clinical trials for non-small cell lung cancer patients, and for colorectal cancer patients. Besides, it was studied for malignant mesothelioma. However, the drug has been discontinued due to toxicity issues at the dose level of 35 mg/m 2.

PF-06747775 is an irreversible pyrrolopyrimidine inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutants which provides potent EGFR activity against the four common mutants (exon 19 deletion (Del), L858R, and double mutants T790M/L858R and T790M/Del), selectivity over wild-type EGFR, and desirable ADME properties. The third-generation class of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors PF-06747775 is a clinical candidate drug for treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) driven by mutant EGFR.

MIV-150 is a tight-binding, allosteric inhibitor of reverse transcriptase that is active against HIV-1 and HIV-2. MIV-150 has been shown to inactivate viruses that are resistant to other antiviral drugs, including non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and protease inhibitors. MIV-150 effectively inactivated free virus. Combination of MIV-150 and Carraguard demonstrated an additive antiviral effect. Seminal fluid had no effect on the antiviral activity of MIV-150 or Carraguard. The average concentration that blocks 50% of infection (EC50) for PC-815 was approximately 10 times stronger than Carraguard for the different clinical isolates used in the study.
