Conditions:

Oteracil is an adjunct to antineoplastic therapy, used in combination with Gimeracil and Tegafur. Gimeracil/oteracil/tegafur combination is approved for the gastric cancer treatment. Oteracil is an orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (OPRT) inhibitor that decreases the activity of 5-fluorocil (tegafur is a prodrug of 5-fluorocil) in normal gastrointestinal mucosa.
Lasofoxifene is an active component of Fablyn. Fablyn is used for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Lasofoxifene is a nonsteroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator. Lasofoxifene has no effect on CYP2E1- or CYP2D6-mediated drug metabolism and should not affect drugs metabolized by other cytochrome P450 isoenzymes. Common adverse reactions considered to be related to Fablyn therapy were muscle spasms, hot flush and vaginal discharge. Lasofoxifene approved in the EU in 2009 is now withdrawn from use in the European Union.

Sarpogrelate (brand name Anplag; former developmental code names MCI-9042, LS-187,118) is a drug which acts as an antagonist at the 5HT2A and 5-HT2B receptors. It blocks serotonin-induced platelet aggregation and has applications in the treatment of many diseases including diabetes mellitus, Buerger's disease, Raynaud's disease, coronary artery disease, angina pectoris, and atherosclerosis.

Conditions:

Doxifluridine is a 5-fluorouracil prodrug that is being tested for the treatment of cancer. The cleavage into 5-fluorouracil occurs enzymatically via a nucleoside phosphorylase. Thus, doxifluridine is not active by itself and its antitumor activity is related to its metabolic conversion into 5-fluorouracil. Doxifluridine has neurotoxic adverse effects.

Falecalcitriol is an analog of calcitriol. Falecalcitriol was first approved by Pharmaceuticals and Medicals Devices Agency of Japan (PMDA) on Apr 4, 2001. It was co-developed by Taisho, Dainippon Sumitomo and Kissei, then marketed as Hornel by Taisho and Taisho Toyama or as Fulstan by Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma and Kissei in JP. It has a higher potency both in vivo and in vitro systems, and longer duration of action in vivo. This medicine improves bone disease and symptoms caused by shortage of vitamin D, etc. It also prompts calcium absorption to supply lacked calcium and prevents bone-thinning. It is usually used to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism under maintenance dialysis, hypoparathyroidism, rickets or osteomalacia. Falecalcitriol regulates the proliferation of parathyroid cells and parathyroid hormone synthesis possibly via binding to a nuclear receptor for vitamin D (VDR). It is often not possible to administer doses high enough to sufficiently inhibit parathyroid hormones because of the risk of hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia.

Vildagliptin, previously identified as LAF237, is a new oral anti-hyperglycemic agent (anti-diabetic drug) of the new dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class of drugs. Vildagliptin inhibits the inactivation of GLP-1 and GIP by DPP-4, allowing GLP-1 and GIP to potentiate the secretion of insulin in the beta cells and suppress glucaon release by the alpha cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. It is currently in clinical trials in the U.S. and has been shown to reduce hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus. While the drug is still not approved for use in the US, it was approved in Feb 2008 by European Medicines Agency for use within the EU and is listed on the Australian PBS with certain restrictions. Vildagliptin is marketed under the trade names Galvus, Zomelis.
Ornidazole is nitroimidazole derivative. It is an antiprotozoal drug that has proven to be effective against Trichomonas vaginalis, Entoamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia and Helicobacter pylori. The reduction of the nitro group and the generation of short-lived reactive intermediates are the basis of its parasiticidal activity. Ornidazole is a DNA-tropic drug with selective activity against microorganisms with enzyme systems capable of reducing the nitrogroup and catalyze the interaction between ferrodoxin proteins and nitrocompounds. After the drug penetrates the microbial cell, the mechanism of its action is based reducing the nitrogroup under the influence of the microorganism’s nitroreductases and the activity of the reduced nitroimidazole. The reduction products create compounds with DNA causing it to degrade, and disrupt the DNA replication and transcription processes. Furthermore, the drug’s metabolism products have cytotoxic properties and disrupt cellular respiration processes. It is indicated for the treatment of anaerobic systemic infections caused by ornidazole-sensitive microflora, prevention of infections caused by anaerobic bacteria, during operative treatment (especially middle and straight intestine surgeries), gynecological surgeries, severe intestinal ameobiasis, all extra-intestinal ameobiasis forms, giardiasis. Ornidazole was shown to be effective for the prevention of recurrence of Crohn's disease after ileocolonic resection.

Edoxudine (5-ethyl-2'-deoxyuridine), an antiviral drug, has been clinically studied against the recurrent genital herpes.
Teduglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) analogue. It is made up of 33 amino acids and is manufactured using a strain of Escherichia coli modified by recombinant DNA technology. Teduglutide differs from GLP-2 by one amino acid (alanine is substituted by glycine). The significance of this substitution is that teduglutide is longer acting than endogenous GLP-2 as it is more resistant to proteolysis from dipeptidyl peptidase-4. GLP-2 is known to increase intestinal and portal blood flow, and inhibit gastric acid secretion. Teduglutide binds to the glucagon-like peptide-2 receptors located in intestinal subpopulations of enteroendocrine cells, subepithelial myofibroblasts and enteric neurons of the submucosal and myenteric plexus. Activation of these receptors results in the local release of multiple mediators including insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, nitric oxide and keratinocyte growth factor (KGF). FDA approved on December 21, 2012. In Europe it has been granted orphan drug status and is marketed under the brand Revestive by Nycomed. It works by promoting mucosal growth and possibly restoring gastric emptying and secretion.
