AZD-1208 is an orally available, potent and highly selective Pim inhibitor that effectively inhibits all three isoforms. AZD-1208 inhibits the growth of several AML cell lines and sensitivity correlates with the level of Pim-1 expression, STAT5 activation and presence of protein tyrosine kinase mutation. AZD-1208 causes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in MOLM-16 cells in culture. This is accompanied by a dose-dependent reduction in phosphorylation of BAD, 4EBP1 and p70S6K. In addition, AZD-1208 leads to potent inhibition of colony growth of primary AML cells from bone marrow aspirates and downregulates phosphorylation of Pim targets. AZD-1208 was in Phase 1 trials to evaluate the safety and tolerability profile and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). There were two trials where AZD-1208 had been administered orally in AML and solid tumour (of all types) patients. The studies had being discontinued due to safety reasons.

Bioresmethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. It is the (+)-trans isomer of resmethrin which itself contains a minimum of 30% bioresmethrin. Bioresmethrin is the [1R, trans] isomer of resmethrin and has greater insecticidal activity than the racemic mixture. Bioresmethrin is a potent contact insecticide effective against a wide range of household insects, plant pests, grain pests and insects found in animal housing. It exhibits a high order of insecticidal activity, which when coupled with its excellent toxicological properties, makes it potentially one of the safest and most useful insecticides now being produced.

Pfizer was developing PF-4455242, a selective, short-acting (non-"inactivating") antagonist of the κ-opioid receptor. PF-4455242 was pursued in phase I clinical trial for the treatment of the bipolar disorder and was also investigated as a treatment for depression and substance abuse. In September 2010 Pfizer discontinued the development of the compound.

DC-0623 is an orally active, selective and ATP-uncompetitive MEK inhibitor with potential antineoplastic activity. GDC-0623 specifically inhibits mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK or MAP/ERK kinase), resulting in inhibition of growth factor-mediated cell signaling and tumor cell proliferation. In a panel of mutant cancer cell lines, GDC-0623 inhibits cellular proliferation with EC50 values in the low nanomolar range. In vivo, GDC-0623 (40 mg/kg, p.o.) causes potent tumor growth inhibition (TGI) in mouse MiaPaCa-2 (120%), A375 (102%) and HCT116 (115%) xenografts. GDC-0623 had been in phase I clinical trials by Genentech, Inc. for the treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors. However, the clinical development of GDC-0623 was discontinued.

Valopicitabine is a nucleoside analog and the orally bioavailable prodrug of NM107 that competitively inhibits HCV NS5B polymerase, causing chain termination. Valopicitabine had been in phase II clinical trial for once-daily oral treatment of Hepatitis C virus infection. However, because of the overall risk/benefit profile of subjects undergoing clinical trials, further development of the drug has been temporarily placed on hold by the Swiss drug major Novartis and USA-based Idenix Pharmaceuticals company and the FDA.

Emilium is an antiarrhythmic agent and cardiac depressant.
