Vapendavir (BTA-798) is an orally active capsid-binding inhibitor. It is a potent, orally bioavailable, broad spectrum inhibitor of the large group of HRVs. Vapendavir binds tightly to VP1s canyon and disrupts the ability of the capsid to bind to a specific cell surface receptor. This further inhibits the release of the viral RNA into the cell cytoplasm during the viral uncoating process (removing the lipid bilayer), thereby disrupting viral replication. Vapendavir is designed to be dosed orally. Vapendavir is in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of rhinovirus-induced aggravation of pre-existing asthma or COPD. Vapendavir has shown significant results in proof-of-concept studies. Thus far, from the Phase 1/2 studies conducted, vapendavir has demonstrated a desirable clinical pharmacology profile with high bioavailability, linear pharmacokinetic profile, remained unaffected by concomitant medications, and was not exclusively metabolized.

Pfizer developed fosdagrocorat (PF-04171327), a dissociated agonist of the glucocorticoid receptor for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The drug successfully completed the phase II clinical trial; however, further study of the drug was discontinued.

PF-04217903 is a triazolopyrazine inhibitor of c-MET that displays anticancer chemotherapeutic and anti-metastatic activities. PF-04217903 inhibits cell proliferation, invasion, and migration as well as tumor growth in various cancer models. In animal models of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, this compound prevents lymph node metastasis. PF-04217903 had been in phase I clinical trials by Pfizer for the treatment of solid tumors. In 2011, the company discontinued the development of the compound.

Dimetholizine has antihypertensive activity. It is an antihistaminic agent too. Histamine H1 receptor was predicted as a primary target for dimetholizine. Moreover, it was found to bind the Dopamine D2 and 5-HT1A receptors. Dimetholizine was predicted to be alpha1D-Adrenergic blocker.

Dipraglurant (ADX48621) is a novel, potent mGluR5 negative allosteric modulator that reduced the severity of drug-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease. Dipraglurant pharmacokinetic variables were similar to those of levodopa, suggesting that both drugs can be co-administered simultaneously in further studies. Dipraglurant might be useful in torsion dystonia treatment also. Detected adverse events are: sweating, dyskinesia, nausea, dizziness, and anxiety. One serious adverse event described as possible syncope.

Safotibant (previously known as LF22-0542) was developed as an antagonist at bradykinin B1 receptor for the topical treatment of diabetic macular edema. This drug participated in phase II clinical trials in Australia, in Belgium and in the Czech Republic. However, further, development was discontinued.

Briciclib (also known as ON-013105 and ON-014185) has the potential of targeting and inhibition of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) for solid cancers. eIF4E is a proto-oncogene that promotes translation of several genes essential for cellular proliferation (cyclin D1, c-Myc, mTOR), survival (Akt), angiogenesis (VEGF), and metastasis (MMP9). Overexpression of eIF4E has been observed in almost all major groups of cancers and has been shown to induce increased expression of cyclin D1 and c-Myc). An intravenous formulation of briciclib was being investigated in the Phase 1 clinical trial. The purpose of the study was to determine the highest dose of briciclib that could be given safely in patients with relapsed/refractory Lymphoma or B-cell Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (Philadelphia chromosome negative). However, this study was terminated because of the lack of available clinical drug supply. In addition, briciclib was also involved in phase I clinical trials with advanced cancer and solid tumors, to determine the highest dose that can be safely given.

Oxi0-4503 (now known as combretastatin A1 phosphate), a diphosphate prodrug of combretastatin A1, was developed by Mateon therapeutics as a second-generation, dual-mechanism vascular disrupting agent from the combretastatin family. On November 21, 2012, Oxi-4503 has been granted orphan designation by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of acute myelogenous leukemia. It is known that the orphan drug designation qualifies a company for several benefits, including the potential for market exclusivity, development grants, and tax credits. Oxi0-4503 is currently participating in phase I/II clinical trial the treatment of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. In addition, phase I clinical trial was successfully completed where was studied the safety of Oxi0-4503 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Octriptyline was used as an antidepressant, however, it has never been marketed.
