INN:pytamine [INN]
Source URL:

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)

Pytamine is a nitrosamine derivative patented by Hercules Powder Co. as antioxidants, stabilizers, rubber additives, insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, and pharmaceutical intermediates. In preclinical trials Pytamine shows potent psychotropic effects associated modulation of GABAA receptors.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)

Fospirate is an organophosphorus insecticide used in veterinary as an anthelmintic agent.
Gomisin A (BESIGOMSIN/GA) one of the major dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans isolated from Schisandra chinensis Baill, has proved to possess a variety of pharmacological effects. It has been found to promote hepatocyte growth factor, limit lipid peroxidation, and inhibit apoptosis in acute hepatic injury animal models. Besigomsine also acts as an anti-inflammatory by preventing the release of arachidonic acid in macrophages in vitro. Laboratory evidence suggests that Besigomsine may have anticarcinogenic effects. Chronic administration of Gomisin A had an antihypertensive effect in AngII-induced hypertensive mice. Gomisin A may exert neuroprotective effects by attenuating the microglia-mediated neuroinflammatory response via inhibiting the TLR4-mediated NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways. Also it induces marked protective effects against hepatic and renal injury induced by CCl(4) exposure through differential regulation of the MAPK signal transduction pathway.

INN:adibendan

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)

Adibendan [BM 14478] is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor that increases the calcium sensitivity of the myocardium. Adibendan selectively inhibited phosphodiesterase III (PDE III) activity concentration-dependently (IC50 = 2.0 umol/l). The IC50 values for the inhibition of PDE I or II were more than 60-fold higher. Adibendan has both vasodilator and positive inotropic properties. Adibendan was investigated as the potential treatment of heart failure and ischaemic heart disorders. However, research has been discontinued at phase II of development.
Sonolisib (PX-866) is a small-molecule inhibitor of the alpha, gamma, and delta isoforms of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) with potential antineoplastic activity. Sonolisib inhibits the production of the secondary messenger phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) and activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which may result in inhibition of tumor cell growth and survival in susceptible tumor cell populations. Inhibition of the PI3K pathway with Sonolisib leads to inhibition of cell growth and decreased activation of downstream targets in GBM, both in vitro and in vivo, using U87–tumor-bearing mice, including Akt, S6, and mTOR. Sonolisib was in phase II clinical trials by Oncothyreon for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). It was in phase I/II clinical trials for the treatment of malignant melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer and Head and neck cancer. In clinical trials, Sonolisib was well tolerated, with common side effects being diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and elevated liver enzymes. However, no recent development has been reported.

INN:inecalcitol
Source URL:

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)

Inecalcitol is a calcitriol analog with potential antineoplastic activity patented by a global pharmaceutical company Laboratoire Theramex. Inecalcitol is a potent agonist of vitamin D receptor (VDR). Inecalcitol was shown to be more potent than calcitriol in decreasing tumor cell growth and inducing apoptosis in a number of different model systems including models of breast cancer, prostate cancer, and squamous cell cancer. Importantly, at the doses shown to induce tumor regression in the animal models investigated, Inecalcitol had no major effect on blood calcium levels. In this phase I study, Inecalcitol was found to be well tolerated. Currently, Inecalcitol in combination with the cytotoxic drug, decitabine is undergoing a phase II clinical trial in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who are unfit to receive standard chemotherapy.

INN:verucerfont [INN]
Source URL:

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)

Verucerfont (formerly GSK561679), a corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) receptor 1 antagonist, is being developed by GlaxoSmithKline under the license from Neurocrine Biosciences, for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder and congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Verucerfont is a potent, selective CRF1 receptor antagonist (IC50 for CRF1, CRF2, and CRF-BP ~ 6.1, >1000 and >1000 nM, respectively), and is orally available and brain penetrant. Verucerfont is in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder or alcoholism. The compound was also in trials for the treatment of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). However, this research has been discontinued. In 2015, orphan drug designation was received in U.S. for the indication.

INN:oxamisole [INN]
Source URL:

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)

Oxamisole (previously known as PR 879-317A), a selective immunomodulatory agent that was studied for the treatment of viral infections. Experiments on mice have shown that antiviral properties of oxamisole were mediated through the immunomodulatory effects of this compound on the immune system. However, further development of this drug was discontinued.
Lisofylline [1-(5R-hydroxyhexyl)-3,7-dimethylxanthine] is a unique metabolite of pentoxifylline. Lisofylline inhibited the generation of phosphatidic acid and free fatty acids. Lisofylline blocked the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in oxidative tissue injury, in response to cancer chemotherapy and in experimental sepsis. Lisofylline regulates immune cell function and autoimmune response by inhibition of IL-12 signalling and cytokine production. Lisofylline may have therapeutic value in the prevention of autoimmune disorders, including Type 1 diabetes, autoimmune recurrence following islet transplantation, and in preservation of beta cell functional mass during islet isolation.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)


Conditions:

Turofexorate Isopropyl (XL335) is a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable FXR agonist. Binds to the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of human FXR. Turofexorate Isopropyl resides in a predominately hydrophobic pocket with only a few polar atoms making contact with WAY-362450. Turofexorate Isopropyl promotes transcription of the human BSEP, human SHP, and mouse IBABP genes utilizing reporter constructs with EC50 of 17, 230, and 33 nM, respectively in promoter assays. Turofexorate Isopropyl had been in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of hyperlipidemia. This compound was originally discovered by Exelixis Pharmaceuticals, then licensed to Wyeth (now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pfizer). However, the studies were discontinued.
