Elacridar is an oral bioenhancer that targets multiple drug resistance in tumors. Elacridar is a strong and relatively specific inhibitor of P-gp and BCRP, two main efflux transporters. Development of elacridar is assumed to have been discontinued.

LECOZOTAN, a benzodioxanylpiperazine derivative, is a selective serotonin 1A receptor antagonist. It was in development for the symptomatic treatment of cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease.

Cadazolid is a new antibiotic in development for the treatment of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea. Cadazolid is active against all (including linezolid- and moxifloxacin-resistant) Clostridium difficile strains. In phase I and II clinical trials, cadazolid was shown to be safe, well tolerated, and efficacious positioning itself as a potential future viable therapeutic option for CDI. Using a series of macromolecular labeling, in vitro transcription/translation, and topoisomerase studies, it was determined that protein synthesis inhibition via the oxazolidinone moiety is the primary mechanism of action of cadazolid. Cadazolid is in phase III clinical trials by Actelion Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Clostridium difficile infection. The US FDA has designated cadazolid as both a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) and a Fast Track development program for this indication.

Hyodeoxycholic acid, also known as HDCA, is a secondary bile acid. Natural 6alpha-hydroxylated bile acids are receptor-specific activators of nuclear liver X receptor alpha (LXRalpha), a nuclear receptor regulating the expression of the cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase gene. AHRO-001 (Hyodeoxycholic acid) is in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of atherosclerosis. Through a complex signaling processes utilizing LXR receptors, the compound is designed to increase the efficiency of cholesterol efflux using the HDL cells, which act on all cholesterol in the arterial circulation as well as in the lipid core of plaque deposits in the artery walls. Use of AHRO-001 has shown no adverse effects on morbidity, mortality or toxicity and has been well tolerated at high doses.
