Difelikefalin (Korsuva™) is a synthetic peptide agonist of the kappa opioid receptor being developed by Cara Therapeutics for the treatment of pruritus. In August 2021, intravenous difelikefalin was approved in the USA for the treatment of moderate-to-severe pruritus associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults undergoing haemodialysis. Difelikefalin selectively acts on kappa opioid receptors in peripheral tissues, which contribute to pruritis and nociception. The activation of opioid receptors in peripheral neurons and keratinocytes reduces afferent (sensory) impulses towards the central nervous system, decreasing pain signals. Activating kappa opioid receptors on immune cells, including monocytes and T lymphocytes, decreases the release of pro-inflammatory chemicals such as prostaglandins.

Maralixibat (Livmarli™) is a potent, apical, sodium‐dependent, bile acid transporter competitive inhibitor with minimal systemic absorption being developed by Mirum Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of rare cholestatic liver diseases including Alagille syndrome (ALGS), progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) and biliary atresia. Maralixibat received its first approval on 29 September 2021, in the USA, for use in the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with ALGS 1 year of age and older. Maralixibat is also under regulatory review for ALGS in Europe, and clinical development for cholestatic liver disorders including ALGS in patients under 1 year of age, PFIC and biliary atresia is continuing in several other countries. This article summarises the milestones in the development of maralixibat leading to this first approval for ALGS.

Ibrexafungerp (BREXAFEMME®) is an orally active triterpenoid antifungal drug being developed by SCYNEXIS, Inc. for the treatment of fungal infections. The inhibition of β-1,3-D glucan synthetase by ibrexafungerp compromises the integrity of fungal cell walls. Ibrexafungerp has been recently approved for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), and it is the first novel antifungal drug class to be approved in more than 20 years. Food and Drug Administration's decision was based on positive results from two pivotal phase III studies in which oral ibrexafungerp proved both safe and effective in patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis. Development for the treatment of recurrent VVC and invasive fungal infections is ongoing.

Finerenone (Kerendia®), a first-in-class, orally administered, selective, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), is being developed by Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and heart failure (HF), including chronic HF (CHF). Finerenone blocks MR mediated sodium reabsorption and MR overactivation in both epithelial (e.g., kidney) and nonepithelial (e.g., heart, and blood vessels) tissues. MR overactivation is thought to contribute to fibrosis and inflammation. Finerenone has a high potency and selectivity for the MR and has no
relevant affinity for androgen, progesterone, estrogen, and glucocorticoid receptors. Finerenone has been approved in the USA to reduce the risk of sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, end stage renal disease (ESRD), cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), and hospitalization for HF in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Finerenone is undergoing regulatory assessment in the EU and in China. A phase III trial is investigating finerenone in patients who have HF with preserved ejection fraction.

DCFPYL F-18 is an urea-based radiotracer composed of the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeting agent DCFPyL and labeled with the positron-emitting isotope, fluorine F 18, that can potentially be used for positron-emitting tomography (PET) imaging. Upon administration of fluorine F 18 DCFPyL, the DCFPyL moiety binds to PSMA expressed on tumor cells. The fluorine F 18 moiety facilitates PET imaging of PSMA-expressing tumor cells. DCFPYL F-18 is investigated in a number of clinical trials in patients with prostate cancer and neuroendocrine tumors.

KD025 is an orally available, selective small molecule inhibitor of ROCK2 (Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase 2), a molecular target in multiple autoimmune, fibrotic and neurodegenerative diseases. KD025 is the only ROCK2-specific inhibitor in the clinical trials. KD025 down-regulates the IL-17 and IL-21 secretion in human PBMCs, and leads to down-regulation of STAT3 phosphorylation, IRF4, and RORγt expression in CD4+ T cells. Kadmon Pharmaceuticals initiated phase II clinical trials of KD025 for the treatment of Graft-versus-host disease; Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; Plaque psoriasis.

Bempedoic acid (also known as ETC-1002) is a novel investigational drug being developed for the treatment of dyslipidemia, hypercholesterolemia and other cardio-metabolic risk factors. The hypolipidemic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-obesity, and glucose-lowering properties of ETC-1002, characterized in preclinical disease models, are believed to be due to dual inhibition of sterol and fatty acid synthesis and enhanced mitochondrial long-chain fatty acid β-oxidation. Investigations into the mechanism of action revealed that bempedoic acid-free acid activates AMP-activated protein kinase in a Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase β-independent and liver kinase β-1-dependent manner, without detectable changes in adenylate energy charge. In the liver, bempedoic acid is also converted to a coenzyme A (CoA) derivative (ETC-1002-CoA )which directly inhibits ATP citrate lyase (ACL), a key enzyme that supplies a substrate for cholesterol and fatty acid synthesis in the liver. Inhibition of ACL by ETC-1002-CoA results in reduced cholesterol synthesis and upregulation of LDL receptor activity in the liver. This promotes the removal of LDL-C from the blood.

Remimazolam is an intravenous benzodiazepine sedative-hypnotic with rapid onset and offset of action. This compound undergoes organ-independent metabolism to an inactive metabolite. Like other benzodiazepines, remimazolam can be reversed with flumazenil to rapidly terminate sedation and anesthesia. Phase I and II clinical trials have shown that remimazolam is safe and effective when used for procedural sedation. Phase III clinical trials have been completed investigating efficacy and safety in patients undergoing bronchoscopy and colonoscopy. The developer of this drug has suggested that intensive care unit sedation (beyond 24 hours) could be another possible indication for further development, since it is unlikely that prolonged infusions or higher doses of remimazolam would result in accumulation and extended effect.

Bristol-Myers Squibb developed Rimegepant, also known as BMS-927711. Rimegepant is a potent, selective, competitive and orally active calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antagonist in clinical trials for treating migraine. Rimegepant has shown in vivo efficacy without vasoconstrictor effect; it is superior to placebo at several different doses (75 mg, 150 mg, and 300 mg) and has an excellent tolerability profile.
