Codeine is an opiate used to manage mild to moderate pain severe enough to require an opioid. Codeine is a selective agonist for the mu opioid receptor and has an affinity to delta and kappa-opioid receptors. In some countries, this drug is regulated under various narcotic control laws, because its chronic use can cause physical dependence. In others, it is available without a medical prescription in combination with paracetamol.

Sepantronium bromide (YM155) is a selective survivin suppressant that exhibits potent antitumor activities by inducing apoptosis and autophagy in various types of cancer. Sepantronium bromide inhibited the growth of various human cancer cell lines in vitro with GI50 values in the low nM range. Sepantronium bromide blocked the growth of 119 human cancer cell lines, with the greatest inhibition in lines derived from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, hormone-refractory prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, sarcoma, non-small-cell lung cancer, breast cancer, leukemia, and melanoma, with an average GI50 of 15 nM. Sepantronium bromide inhibited the growth of tumor cell lines regardless of their p53 status and demonstrated significant antitumor activity in 5 mice xenograft models. It also caused tumor regressions in vivo, possibly by its effects in reducing intratumoral survivin expression levels and increasing apoptosis. Sepantronium Bromide had been in phase II clinical trials by Astellas for the treatment of prostate cancer, melanoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, breast cancer, diffuse large B cell lymphoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other solid tumors. This compound had also been in clinical trials by National Cancer Institute (NCI) for the treatment of solid tumors (phase I) and advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (phase II). However, all these researches about this compound for all indications were discontinued.

Saracatinib (AZD0530) is an oral, dual inhibitor of c-Src/Abl kinases initially developed by AstraZeneca for the treatment of cancer. The drug was tested for many neoplasms and reached phase III for ovarian cancer (in combination with paclitaxel), however without demonstrating any significant effect. Sarcatinib is also tested in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (Phase II). Its effect on Alzheimer's Disease patients is explained by inhibition of another kinase, Fyn, which is highly expressed in brain.

Omidenepag isopropyl, a prodrug, is hydrolyzed in the eye to the active form (Omidenepag) which functions as a selective, nonprostaglandin, prostanoid EP2 agonist, has been developed by Ube Industries and Santen Pharmaceutical as an ophthalmic solution (EYBELIS®) for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Omidenepag isopropyl increases the outfow of aqueous humor via both the uveoscleral outfow and the trabecular outfow pathways, resulting in potent and stable reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP). In September 2018, omidenepag isopropyl ophthalmic solution 0.002% was approved in Japan for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. On September 22, 2022, the FDA approved Santen’s Omlonti (omidenepag isopropyl), for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Lesinurad (brand name Zurampic) is a urate transporter inhibitor for treating hyperuricemia associated with gout in patients who have not achieved target serum uric acid levels with a xanthine oxidase inhibitor alone. In gout patients, Lesinurad lowered serum uric acid levels and increased renal clearance and fractional excretion of uric acid. Following single and multiple oral doses of Lesinurad to gout patients, dose-dependent decreases in serum uric acid levels and increases in urinary uric acid excretion were observed. Lesinurad reduces serum uric acid levels by inhibiting the function of transporter proteins involved in uric acid reabsorption in the kidney. Lesinurad inhibited the function of two apical transporters responsible for uric acid reabsorption, uric acid transporter 1 (URAT1) and organic anion transporter 4 (OAT4), with IC50 values of 7.3 and 3.7 µM, respectively. URAT1 is responsible for the majority of the reabsorption of filtered uric acid from the renal tubular lumen. OAT4 is a uric acid transporter associated with diuretic-induced hyperuricemia. Lesinurad does not interact with the uric acid reabsorption transporter SLC2A9 (Glut9), located on the basolateral membrane of the proximal tubule cell. Based on in vitro studies, lesinurad is an inhibitor of OATP1B1, OCT1, OAT1, and OAT3; however, lesinurad is not an in vivo inhibitor of these transporters. In vivo drug interaction studies indicate that lesinurad does not decrease the renal clearance of furosemide (substrate of OAT1/3), or affect the exposure of atorvastatin (substrate of OATP1B1) or metformin (substrate of OCT1). Based on in vitro studies, lesinurad has no relevant effect on P-glycoprotein.
