Anhydrous dibasic calcium phosphate is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid. It is used as a diluent in pharmaceutical industry, in some toothpastes as a polishing agent. Calcium phosphate is generally recognized as safe by FDA. Dibasic calcium phosphate is ised as a supplement to treat conditions associated with calcium deficit, such as bone loss (osteoporosis), weak bones (osteomalacia/rickets), decreased activity of the parathyroid gland (hypoparathyroidism), and a certain muscle disease (latent tetany)

Struvite, a crystalline substance first identified in the 18th century, is composed of magnesium ammonium phosphate. Struvite urinary stones are also known as ‘infection stones’, and account for 15%-20% of all urinary stones. Bacterial urease, usually from a Proteus species, is responsible for the chemical changes in urine which result in struvite formation.

Squalamine is a steroid-polyamine conjugate compound with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and anti-angiogenic activity. Squalamine selectively inhibits new blood vessel formation; this activity is thought to be mediated through inhibition of the sodium-hydrogen antiporter sodium-proton exchangers (specifically the NHE3 isoform) causing inhibition of hydrogen ion efflux from endothelial cells, with subsequent reduction of cellular proliferation. Studies in tumor-bearing mice have shown that squalamine inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth in xenograft models of lung, breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer and in brain and breast allograft tumor models in rats. Squalamine also has been shown to prevent lung metastases in the murine Lewis lung carcinoma model, both as a single agent and in combination with various other chemotherapeutics. Squalamine does not appear to have substantial direct effects on primary tumor growth in animal models when administered as a single agent. However, enhanced antitumor responses are observed when squalamine is administered in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents when compared with cytotoxic agents used alone. Squalamine was studied as a potential cancer drug and as a potential treatment for wet macular degeneration but as of 2018 had not succeeded in Phase III trials for any use.

Onalespib (AT13387; (2,4-dihydroxy-5-isopropyl-phenyl)-[5-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl] methanone, l-lactic acid salt), is wholly owned by Astex, a novel, high-affinity HSP90 inhibitor, which is currently being clinically tested, has shown activity against a wide array of tumor cell lines, including lung cancer cell lines. As a targeted inhibitor of Hsp90, onalespib has the potential to control the proliferation of multiple solid tumors and hematological malignancies where uncontrolled cell growth is dependent on the interaction between Hsp90 and its client proteins. Astex is pursuing an approach based on the observation that addition of onalespib to a molecularly targeted agent may delay the emergence of resistance to the agent, and hence prolong the window of therapeutic benefit. Onalespib is currently being evaluated via a CRADA with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in various tumor types, and in a Phase 1/2 clinical study in combination with AT7519, Astex CDK inhibitor.

Tozasertib, originally developed as VX-680 by Vertex (Cambridge, MA) and later renamed MK-0457 by Merck (Whitehouse Station, NY), was the first aurora kinase inhibitor to be tested in clinical trials. The drug, a pyrimidine derivative, has affinity for all aurora family members at nanomolar concentrations with inhibitory constant values (Ki(app)) of 0.6, 18, and 4.6 nM for aurora A, aurora B, and aurora C, respectively. Preclinical studies confirmed that tozasertib inhibited both aurora A and aurora B kinase activity, and activity has been reported against prostate, thyroid, ovarian, and oral squamous cancer cell lines. Upon treatment with tozasertib, cells accumulate with a 4N DNA content due to a failure of cytokinesis. This ultimately leads to apoptosis, preferentially in cells with a compromised p53 function. Tozasertib is an anticancer chemotherapeutic pan-aurora kinase (AurK) inhibitor that also inhibits FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) and Abl. Tozasertib is currently in clinical trials as a potential treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In cellular models of cancer, tozasertib activates caspase-3 and PARP and decreases expression of HDAC, increasing apoptosis and inhibiting cell growth. In other cellular models, tozasertib inhibits cell proliferation and metastasis by blocking downstream ERK signaling and downregulating cdc25c and cyclin B. This compound also decreases tumor growth in an in vivo model of prostate cancer.
