Nicametate is a vasodilator, which enhances blood flow and oxygen to the brain, aids stroke recovery. It also can use for treating intermittent claudication in certain patients.

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.

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.

N-Gene Research Laboratories is developing BGP-15 (NP-51), a small molecule, orally available, indirect Jun kinase (JNK) inhibitor and insulin sensitiser, for glycaemic control in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus, and as an adjunct treatment for insulin resistance due to antipsychotics or obesity. In March 2002, N-Gene Research Laboratories granted Allos Therapeutics an exclusive license to its intellectual property surrounding BGP 15 in the US. BGP-15 has previously been used in clinical trials for the treatment of skeletal muscle pathology associated with Type 2 Diabetes (through insulin sensitization), Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and heart failure (through anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic mechanisms). Via its action as a modulator of the cytoprotective response to cellularstress, and specifically as a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, heat shock protein-inducer, membrane lipid therapeutic and an antioxidant inducer, BGP-15 has previously been shown to protect against skeletal muscle dysfunction, damage and wasting.

CB-5083 is a novel first in class, potent orally bio-available p97 inhibitor that disrupts cellular protein homeostasis and demonstrates anti-tumor activity in solid and hematological models. CB-5083 causes rapid and sustained accumulation of poly-ubiquitin in tumor xenografts after a single administration. CB-5083 showed activity to inhibit tumor growth in multiple rodent models of human cancer. Furthermore, CB-5083 appears to exhibit greater potency over current proteasome inhibitors that further validate targeting p97 and protein homeostasis in the treatment of cancer. CB-5083 is a potent inhibitor of endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation and induces a lethal unfodled protein response. CB-5083 recently began Phase 1 testing in relapsed/refractory or refractory multiple myeloma, and advanced solid tumors.

XK-469 (2-[4-(7-chloro-2-quinoxalinyloxy)phenoxy]-propionic acid) is a novel synthetic quinoxaline phenoxypropionic acid derivative. The R-isomer of XK-469 was approximately twice as effective as the S-isomer of XK-469R. R( )-isomers induce reversible protein DNA crosslinks in mammalian cells. It acts as a selective topoisomerase IIβ inhibitor. A phase I study was performed to determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of XK-469, (R)- in patients with various neoplasms.

Motesanib (AMG 706), a novel nicotinamide, was identified as a potent, orally bioavailable inhibitor of the VEGFR1/Flt1, VEGFR2/kinase domain receptor/Flk-1, VEGFR3/Flt4 and Kit receptors. Motesanib was expected to reduce vascular permeability and blood flow in human tumours. A phase III trial of motesanib in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in non-squamous NSCLC has been terminated by Takeda and subsequently the development was discontinued. Motesanib has also been investigated up to phase II in breast, thyroid, colorectal and gastrointestinal stromal tumours. However, development has been discontinued in these indications.

Avasimibe (CI 1011) is a potent ACAT (Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase) inhibitor. Avasimibe inhibits both ACAT1 and ACAT2 isoforms. Avasimibe was in development by Parke-Davis (now Pfizer) in the US for the treatment of atherosclerosis and hyperlipidaemia. Avasimibe was in phase III studies and more than 1300 patients had been treated for up to one year, however, in October 2003, Pfizer announced that development had been discontinued.
