Oglufanide, an angiogenesis inhibitor, an immunomodulator, that originally was developed and registered in Russia under the brand name timogen. Oglufanide inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which may inhibit angiogenesis. This agent has also been reported to stimulate the immune response to hepatitis C virus and intracellular bacterial infections. Oglufanide was studied in the USA for the treatment of cancer, and in September 2001, it was granted Orphan Drug designation for the treatment of ovarian cancer. In addition, in Australia this drug was involved in phase II clinical trial for the treatment of hepatitis C. Oglufanide is also participated in phase III trials for patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, however, this study was discontinued.

Clorisamine is an antihistamine drug developed by Schering in the 1970s. The drug was evaluated in phase 1 clinical trial on healthy volunteers. The results show that in a therapeutic dose of 2 mg the drug did not have any effects which might lead to an impairment of driving ability.

Dersalazine is a locally-acting compound. It is a potent platelet activating factor (PAF)-antagonist. Dersalazine inhibited IL-1beta or TNF-alpha production in THP-1 or U937 cells, respectively. Dersalazine sodium reduced colonic proinflammatory cytokines IL-1b, IL-6, and IL-17 in dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)–induced colitis. After oral administration, dersalazine sodium is mostly unabsorbed until it reaches the large bowel where the azo bond is reduced by bacteria releasing the active compound. Dersalazine had been in phase I clinical trial for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. No serious adverse reactions were detected in clinical trial. However, no recent development has been reported.

Pyroxamine (also known as AHR 224) is benzhydryl ethers of 3-pyrrolidinol patented by A. H. Robins Co., Inc. as antihistamine with bronchodilation activity. In preclinical studies, Pyroxamine shows moderate inhibition of histamine-induced ulceration in guinea pigs

Loxoribine [RWJ 217C7] is an immunostimulant which was developed by Johnson and Johnson. It is a selective agonist for TLR7 (Toll-like receptor 7), which possesses antitumor and antiviral properties and was investigated in a rat model of endometriosis and in addition, in phase I of a clinical trial for patients with advanced cancer.

Epetirimod (S-30563 or TAK-851) is an immunostimulant. The compound is structurally related to the marketed topical imidazoquinoline drug, imiquimod, an agonist of Toll-like receptor 7. Epetirimod was under development with Takeda Pharmaceutical as a topical treatment for cervical high-risk HPV infection and cervical dysplasia. Takeda has discontinued epetirimod development as it did not meet the predefined efficacy end points in a US Phase II trial.

SITOGLUSIDE (Daucosterol) inhibits cancer cell proliferation by inducing autophagy through reactive oxygen species-dependent manner. It also perturbs cell cycle and induces apoptotic cell death in A549 cells. Daucosterol has being shown to promote the proliferation of neural stem cells. Daucosterol also protects neurons against oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion-mediated injury by activating IGF1 signaling pathway. Daucosterol could be potentially developed as a medicine for ischemic stroke treatment.

Indoximod is an orally available Indoleamine 2,3-dioxigenase inhibitor. It shows higher potency in reversing IDO-mediated T cell suppression. Indoximod improves the efficacy of multiple chemotherapeutics agents and some immunological checkpoints mediators in Phase I/II clinical studies for metastatic breast cancer, metastatic melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, primary malignant brain tumors, metastatic pancreatic cancer, as well as metastatic prostate cancer.

Fostedil (KB-944) is a phosphonic acid derivative with potent vasodilator activity. KB-944 has been demonstrated to produce long lasting coronary vasodilator and hypotensive effects in conscious and anesthetized dogs; increase coronary blood flow in isolated, blood perfused heart preparations of dogs; and reduce systemic pressure in conscious normotensive and hypertensive rats. Slow channel calcium entry blockade is thought to contribute to the vasodilator activity of KB-944. Fostedil is longer acting in hypertensive animals than either nifedipine or diltiazem suggesting a potential clinical advantage for this compound. Unexpectedly, fostedil was shown to produce atrial fibrillation in 3 of 10 hypertensive patients in a placebo controlled study. Fostedil had been in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of angina pectoris. However, this research has been discontinued.
