Isavuconazole is an active form of isavuconazonium, a prodrug which is marketed under the name Cresemba. Isavuconazole inhibits lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase (or CYP51A1) and leads to the accumulation of ergosterol toxic precursors in the fungal cytoplasm. Isavuconazole is indicated for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis and invasive mucormycosis.

Pasireotide is a synthetic long-acting cyclic hexapeptide with somatostatin-like activity. It is marketed as a diaspartate salt called Signifor, indicated for the treatment of adult patients with Cushing’s disease for whom pituitary surgery is not an option or has not been curative. SIGNIFOR is an injectable cyclohexapeptide somatostatin analogue. Pasireotide exerts its pharmacological activity via binding to somatostatin receptors (ssts). Pasireotide binds and activates the hsst receptors resulting in inhibition of ACTH secretion, which leads to decreased cortisol secretion.

Crizotinib (trade name Xalkori, Pfizer, Inc.) is an anti cancer drug approved for the treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors are anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive as detected by an FDA-approved test. Crizotinib is an inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinases including ALK, Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (HGFR, c-Met), ROS1 (c-ros), and Recepteur d’Origine Nantais (RON). Common adverse reactions in clinical trials with crizotinib, occurring at an incidence of 25% or higher, included visual disorders, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, edema, elevated transaminases, and fatigue. Crizotinib is currently under investigational study for use in treatment of Uveal Melanoma.

Ticagrelor (known trade names Brilinta, Brilique and Possia) is a P2Y12 platelet inhibitor. Brilinta has been approved by the US Food and Drug administration (FDA) in 2011 and is indicated to reduce the rate of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or a history of myocardial infarction. Brilinta also reduces the rate of stent thrombosis in patients who have been stented for treatment of ACS. Ticagrelor and its major metabolite reversibly interact with the platelet P2Y12 ADP-receptor to prevent signal transduction and platelet activation. Ticagrelor and its active metabolite are approximately equipotent. In vitro metabolism studies demonstrate that ticagrelor and its major active metabolite are weak inhibitors of CYP3A4, potential activators of CYP3A5 and inhibitors of the P-gp transporter. Most common adverse reactions are bleeding 12% and dyspnea 14%.
