Butocrolol amino alcohol derivative with β-adrenolytic, antiarrhythmic, and local anesthetic properties having sympatholytic and antiarrhythmic effects comparable to those of propranolol, but with lower local anesthetic effects.

Myrophine is an opiate analog and long-acting prodrug for morphine with a slow onset of effects. It is weaker than morphine as an analgesic but longer-lasting in effects and was thought to have a more local anesthetic effect than morphine, though with a somewhat greater tendency to cause histamine reactions like itching and rash. In addiction studies conducted in human subjects in the 1950s, myrophine did not substitute for morphine in withdrawal, did not produce notable morphine-like effects, and did not produce addiction or dependence regardless of dose or how it was administered.

Bucricaine is tetrahydroaminoacridine derivative that has been studied as acetylcholinesterase and monoamine oxidase inhibitor. In animal models, Bucricaine shows a wide spectrum of pharmacological properties, which include analgesic, local anesthetic, analeptic, and respiratory stimulant activities.

CBL0137 (also known as Curaxin CBL0137) is a metabolically stable curaxin and belongs to the class of small molecules with anti-cancer activity. CBL0137 is in Phase I clinical trials to treat hematological malignancies and solid tumors. CBL0137 binds to Facilitates Chromatin Transcription (FACT) and sequesters the FACT complex on chromatin, which inhibits its activity. This prevents transcription of certain genes involved in cancer-associated signaling pathways; it specifically inhibits the transcription of both NF-kappa β and heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) and simultaneously activates p53. In addition, CBL0137 was investigated in vitro and in models mice for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) and the obtained data suggested testing of CBL0137 efficacy in Phase II trial in PDA patients alone and in combination with gemcitabine.

Tirabrutinib (also known as ONO-4059 or GS-4059), a second-generation, enhanced-selectivity Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor that demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical models. Tirabrutinib participated in phase I clinical trial in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies, where it was well tolerated and showed promising efficacy. In addition, tirabrutinib is involved in phase II clinical trials to study safety and efficacy in adults with Active Sjogren's syndrome and in adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Besides the drug was studied for the treatment of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and patients with refractory pemphigus.

Rumenic acid is the major conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), probably because of successive desaturation and chain elongation and can be considered as the principal dietary form. In experiments on rodents was shown that rumenic acid possessed the protective effect against colitis, which was associated with the activation of the Nrf2 pathway.

Omtriptolide (previously known as PG490-88 or F60008), an immunosuppressant that has been shown to be the safe and potent antitumor agent and it has been approved entry into Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of prostate cancer in the USA. In addition, the drug is participating in phase I clinical trial for the treatment of myeloid leukemia. Experiments on animals have shown omtriptolide was highly effective in the prevention of murine graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The immunosuppressive effect of the drug was mediated by inhibition of alloreactive T cell expansion through interleukin-2 production. However, this study was discontinued. Recently published article has shown omtriptolide possesses the potential as a prophylactic agent to prevent ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced lung injury.

MK-2206 is an oral selective allosteric inhibitor of Akt that targets all three isoforms of human Akt (Akt-1, Akt-2 and Akt-3). In a phase I study of solid tumors, MK-2206 demonstrated evidence of target modulation and anti-proliferative activity as a single agent and in combination with other agents. Current ongoing trials of MK-2206 include monotherapy and combination therapy in breast cancer, colorectal cancer, haematological malignancies, non-small cell lung cancer and other. Detected treatment-related adverse event are: rash, fatigue, hyperglycemia.
