Benzo-lipoxin A4 as a bLXA4-ME also known as ClinRinse-1 participated in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of gingival diseases. It was shown that nano-proresolving medicines (NPRM) containing a lipoxin analog (benzo-lipoxin A4, bLXA4) was a mimetic of endogenous resolving mechanisms with potent bioactions. That offered a new therapeutic tissue-engineering approach for the treatment of chronic osteolytic inflammatory diseases.

Amfepentorex (CB 2201) was marketed as an appetite suppressant in France in the 1970s.

Clonazoline is an imidazoline sympathomimetic, an alpha-adrenoreceptor agonist. It was used as a nasal decongestant and vasoconstrictor. The drug was marketed in Italy in combination with Fluocinolone under tradename Localyn.

JNJ-41443532 is a C-C motif chemokine receptor 2 antagonist. It is under development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Normorphine is an opiate analog, specifically the N-demethylated derivative of morphine. It was first described in the 1953 as part of an effort to characterize N-substituted morphine analogs. Normorphine has relatively little opioid activity, but it is a useful intermediate for the production of more potent morphine analogs. It is also a major metabolite of morphine.

Dofequidar (MS-209), a quinolone-derived sphingomyelin synthase inhibitor that blocks P-glycoprotein and multidrug resistance-associated protein-1, is under development by Schering for the potential treatment of multidrug resistant tumors. MS-209 had been in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of breast cancer and non-small lung cancer. But this research was discontinued in 2004. Detected adverse events are: nausea, vomiting, leukopenia, neutropenia, anorexia, constipation.

HM-30181 is a highly selective and potent inhibitor of Multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1, ABCB1), also known as P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Co-administration of HM30181 greatly increased oral bioavailability of tubulin-stabilizing chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel. Oraxol is an oral dosage form of paclitaxel administered orally with the HM30181A molecule. Oraxol offers patients with paclitaxel-responsive tumors the possibility of oral therapy without the requirement for premedication to prevent infusion-related hypersensitivity-type reactions. Current clinical data suggests the promising potential of a better clinical response and tolerability profile, which can likely to be attributed to the better pharmacokinetic profile achieved. Oraxol is presently in a Phase 3 trial in metastatic breast cancer and poised to enter into a combination study for treatment of advanced gastric cancer with ramucirumab through a clinical trial collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company.
