Broparestrol, (Z)- is an isomer of Broparestrol -- synthetic, nonsteroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) of the triphenylethylene group that has been used in Europe as a dermatological agent and for the treatment of breast cancer. Broparestrol, (Z)- and Broparestrol, (E)- demonstrates antiestrogenic activity but, unlike broparestrol, were never marketed.

Tandamine was developed as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor for the treatment of depression. Tandamine participated in clinical trials in hospitalized depressed patients, where it showed that the well-tolerated drug could be of some benefit for retarded depressions. In addition, was found in human volunteers, that tandamine possessed significant anticholinergic activity, to reduce appetite and to produce sedation. However, this drug has never been marketed.

KW-2478 is a novel and potent non-ansamycin inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 designed to overcome the limitations, including low water solubility and hepatotoxicity, of 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG). KW-2478 exerts a strong antitumor activity against multiple myeloma (MM) cells with various chromosomal translocations. KW-2478 inhibits cell growth and apoptosis associated with Hsp90 client protein degradation. Recent study results have revealed that KW-2478 is able to deplete Hsp90 client Cdk9 and the phosphorylated 4E-BP1, a transcriptional kinase and a transcription inhibitor respectively, leading to reduced expression of FGFR3, c-Maf, and cyclin D1. KW-2478 suppresses tumor growth and induces the degradation of client proteins in tumors in NCI-H929 s.c. inoculated model at doses of 100 mg/kg or more. KW-2478 reduces both serum M protein and MM tumor burden in the bone marrow in OPM-2/GFP i.v. inoculated mouse model at doses of 100 mg/kg.

Batefenterol, previously known as GSK961081, a bifunctional muscarinic (M2 and M3 receptors) antagonist β2-agonist that is developed for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The drug has successfully completed phase II clinical trials with clinically significant improvements in lung function. No new or unexpected safety signals were observed in this COPD population. The conclusion from the trial was following that batefenterol 300 µg might represent the optimal dose for Phase III studies.

Nolpitantium (SR-140333) is a highly selective nonpeptide antagonist of neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor. Nolpitantium potently, selectively and competitively inhibited substance P binding to NK1 receptors from various animal species, including humans. In vitro, it was a potent antagonist in functional assays for NK1 receptors such as [Sar9, Met(O2)11]substance P-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation of rabbit pulmonary artery and contraction of guinea-pig ileum. Up to 1 mkM, Nolpitantium had no effect in bioassays for NK2 and NK3 receptors. The antagonism exerted by Nolpitantium toward NK1 receptors was apparently non-competitive, with pD2' values between 9.65 and 10.16 in the different assays. Nolpitantium also blocked in vitro [Sar9, Met(O2)11]substance P-induced release of acetylcholine from rat striatum. In vivo, Nolpitantium exerted highly potent antagonism toward [Sar9, Met(O2)11]substance P-induced hypotension in dogs, bronchoconstriction in guinea-pig) and plasma extravasation in rats. Nolpitantium was found to be effective in the modulation of the inflammatory response and airway remodeling in mice. Nolpitantium is reported to cause antagonism of the SP-induced relaxations of human isolated intralobar pulmonary arterial rings. Nolpitantium also blocked the activation of rat thalamic neurons after nociceptive stimulation. Nolpitantium has been shown to reduce the severity of inflammation in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colitis in the rat colon. Nolpitantium inhibited mustard oil-induced plasma protein extravasations in the dorsal skin of the rat hind paw. Nolpitantium had been in some phase II clinical trials but further studies were discontinued.

Artefenomel, a novel trioxolane, is a lead candidate for inclusion in a new antimalarial combination, specifically formulated for children. Artefenomel has been demonstrated curative in as little as one dose.
