HaiHe Biopharma (Shanghai HaiHe Pharmaceutical) is developing simmitecan, an ester pro-drug of chimmitecan for the treatment of cancer. Simmitecan is in phase I development for solid tumours and colorectal cancer in China. Simmitecan (L-P) is a water-soluble ester prodrug of chimmitecan (L-2-Z) with potent anti-tumor activities in different experimental animals. Chimmitecan，a novel CPT derivative, exhibited potent antitumor activities both in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting topoisomerase I.

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.

Uprosertib is an oral potent Akt inhibitor which acts equally on Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3. The drug is under clinical development in combination with trametinib for the treatment of different cancers, including melanoma, myeloma, breast, endometrial, cervical cancer, etc.

PAC-14028 was developed as a transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) antagonist. It is known that TRPV1 might be deeply associated with skin permeability barrier function, suggesting that modulation of TRPV1 might be beneficial for the skin disorders with barrier damages. Amorepacific developed a topical cream formulation of PAC-14028. This drug completed phase III clinical trial for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. In addition, PAC-14028 participated in phase II clinical trials to evaluate its safety and efficacy in seborrheic dermatitis and in rosacea. Moreover, PAC-14028 has been used in trials studying the treatment of pruritus.
