LY2886721 is a BACE inhibitor used for the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease. LY2886721 did not inhibit other aspartyl proteases such as cathepsin D, pepsin, and renin, and reduced Aβ in a dose-dependent manner in HEK293Swe cells and in primary neurons from PDAPP transgenic mice. LY2886721 was the first BACE inhibitor to reach Phase 2 clinical research. Lilly completed six Phase 1 studies of LY2886721’s safety, tolerability, and pharmacology in a total of 150 healthy volunteers and people with Alzheimer’s disease at doses of 1–70 mg. Single and multiple ascending oral dosing was accompanied by repeat CSF sampling in the hours and days thereafter. This was done to assess CSF penetration and target engagement by way of measuring levels of the drug, BACE1 substrate, and BACE1 cleavage products. The compound lowered CSF Aβ40, Aβ42, and sAPPβ concentrations while increasing sAPPα, consistent with expectations for BACE1 inhibition. Fourteen days of daily dosing reduced BACE1 activity by 50–75 percent, and CSF Aβ42 by 72 percent. No safety concerns were apparent in dosing up to six weeks

Hexasonium, an anticholinergic agent, was studied as a spasmolytic. Information about the current use of this drug is not available.

Pefcalcitol (previously known as M518101), an analog of vitamin D3 (VD3), is an antipsoriatic drug candidate that is designed to achieve much higher pharmacological effects, such as keratinocyte differentiation. This drug is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor and is being developed as a topical ointment formulation. Pefcalcitol was involved in phase III clinical trials in the USA and in Japan in subjects with plaque psoriasis and with palmoplantar keratoderma. In addition, it participated in phase II clinical trial for the warts treatment.

Motolimod (VTX-2337) is a small molecule, selective Toll-like receptor (TLR) 8 agonist has been used in trials studying phase II for the treatment of peritoneal carcinoma, Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, B-cell lymphoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck among others. Motolimod is designed to mobilize a patient's immune system by directly activating myeloid dendritic cells, monocytes, and natural killer cells. This activation results in the production of a high level of mediators known to orchestrate the integration of both the innate and adaptive anti-tumor responses to a number of cancers.

LANOPEPDEN is an inhibitor of peptide deformylase, a bacterial enzyme required for protein maturation. It was in development for the treatment of complicated bacterial skin infection and hospitalized community-acquired pneumonia.

IOWH032 is a synthetic extracellular CFTR inhibitor, originally developed to treat diarrhea, that entered Phase II clinical trials in 2013 but did not progress further in clinical development. iOWH032 has low CFTR inhibition potency (IC50 > 5 uM) and hence rapid (seconds or less) dissociation from CFTR. iOWH032 inhibited secretion by nearly 70% as measured on a semi-quantitative fecal output scale.

LY377604 is a human β3-adrenergic receptor agonist and β1- and β2-adrenergic receptor antagonist with no sympathomimetic activity at the β1- and β2-adrenergic receptors. Combination of LY377604 and a norepinephrine-serotonin uptake inhibitor (sibutramine) was studied in the treatment of obesity. LY377604 would ameliorate side effect of sibutramine treatment (increase in blood pressure and heart rate due to activation of the sympathetic nervous system).
