Azeliragon is an orally bioavailable small molecule that inhibits the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE). RAGE has been proposed to contribute to Alzheimer's disease pathology by promoting vascular leakage, promoting influx of peripheral amyloid beta into brain, mediating amyloid beta induced oxidative stress, mediating AGE induced hyperphosphorylation of tau and amyloid beta mediated neuronal death. Azeliragon is in Phase III clinical trial for the treatment of mild Alzheimer's disease.

Ipatasertib, an investigational Akt inhibitor, is currently in clinical development based on its potential to specifically target Akt in tumors with activated Akt signaling. Preclinical data have shown that ipatasertib selectively decreased cell viability and increased apoptosis in tumor cell lines characterized by activated Akt. Ipatasertib is advancing in clinical development including three Phase 2 trials in patients with breast cancer, gastric cancer and prostate cancer. The most commonly reported adverse events associated with Ipatasertib were Grade 1-2 diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, vomiting, decreased appetite and rash.

Octabenzone is a UV absorber/screener. It is used to protect polymers (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinylchloride) against damage by UV light.

Mapracorat (BAY-865319, BOL-303242-X or ZK-245186) is a selective non-steroid glucocorticoid receptor agonist exerting anti-inflammatory activity. Mapracorat showed partial attenuation of the classical NF-κB pathway, consistent with traditional steroids. However, mapracorat uniquely potentiated a novel anti-inflammatory mechanism through rapid upregulation of RelB, an anti-inflammatory member of the NF-κB alternative pathway. Mapracorat was being studied in the treatment of ocular and skin inflammatory diseases.

Evobrutinib is a highly selective, irreversible inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). It potently inhibits BCR- and Fc receptor-mediated signaling and, thus, subsequent activation and function of B cells and innate immune cells such as monocytes and basophils. Evobrutinib demonstrated effectivity in autoimmune disease preclinical models. Evobrutinib is being developed by Merck Serono for the treatment of various autoimmune disorders.

Sarafloxacin [A 55620] is a quinolone antibiotic that was under development with Abbott Laboratories in the USA. It was removed from clinical use by its manufacturer Abbott Laboratories from April 30, 2001. It was never approved for use in the US or Canada.

Zaurategrast (CDP323) is an ethyl ester prodrug of CT7758, a potent carboxylic acid antagonist of integrin alpha4-beta1 (α4β1) or very late antigen 4 (VLA4). CDP323 was under development with UCB and Biogen Idec for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Its development was discontinued in 2009 based on inadequate interim efficacy data in a phase II clinical trial.
