Cefazaflur (INN) is a semisynthetic first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic patented by Smithkline Corp. For treatment of bacterial infections.

Elinafide (LU 79553) is a bisintercalating naphthalamide and a topoisomerase II inhibitor has demonstrated a higher binding affinity for DNA and significant antitumour efficacy against a panel of established tumour cell lines, including several multidrug resistant-positive sublines. Elinafide had been in phase II clinical trial for the treatment of ovarian cancer and phase I trials for the treatment of various solid tumours. The major haematological toxicities observed were anaemia and neutropenia. The major non-haematological toxicities observed in the 3-weekly schedule were neuro-muscular presenting clinically as a mixed syndrome of severe weakness (sometimes with pain in both legs), myalgia and arthralgia, asthenia/fatigue/malaise. One fatality was considered related to LU 79553, as the patient had fever and neutropenia. Clinical study of this drug candidate was discontinued due to its neuromuscular dose-limiting toxicity.

Pobilukast is the Leukotriene D4 receptor antagonist. Pobilukast significantly attenuated the Salmonella enteritidis endotoxin-induced thrombocytopenia but had no effect on either the endotoxin-induced early leukopenia or late leukocytosis. Additionally, Pobilukast significantly reduced the endotoxin-induced hemoconcentration and improved survival to 30% at 48 hr. Pobilukast dose-dependently inhibited the immediate hemodynamic changes after leukotriene D4 (LTD4) injections. Pobilukast also attenuated the increase in vascular permeability and the prolonged decrease in CO, suggesting that the observed cardiac and vascular effects of LTs were mediated by stimulation of LT receptors. A shift toward the right of the dose-response curves to histamine with pobilukast compared to that with placebo in three subjects was demonstrated, whereas the active compound did not exhibit any protective effect against histamine in the remaining nine subjects. It was concluded that there is a leukotriene component to the bronchial responses to histamine in some, but not all, subjects. Pobilukast had been in phase II clinical trial for the treatment of asthma. However, this development was discontinued.

ZK 200775, also known as fanapanel, an antagonist at the alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) receptor, possesses neuroprotective efficacy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. However, the phase II of clinical trials had revealed, that this compound had led to the neuronal dysfunction and the glial cell toxicity had occurred. In addition, was shown, that the antagonization of AMPA receptors by ZK200775 lead to alterations of color and dark vision, visual acuity, cone electroretinogram (ERG) modalities and the pattern-reversal visual evoked potentials and to a lesser extent on the scotopic ERG. At the same time, ZK 200775 did not alter eye morphology, the functioning of the extraocular muscles, binocular vision, visual fields or the pupil.

Bromebric Acid (Cytembena) is a derivative of bromoacrylic acid with cytostatic and antineoplastic activity. Chemical structure of Bromebric Acid is not related to any previous antineoplastic agent. In animal tumor screens, Jelinek and Semonsky noted antineoplastic activity of Cytembena against sarcoma 180, atlenocarcinoina of the lactic gland in mice, Ehrlich’s ascitic carcinoma, Yoshida’s ascitic sarcoma, and Zojdeln’s heap

Meseclazone (W-2395) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It exerts anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activity. Meseclazone inhibits in vitro and ex vivo platelet aggregation initiated by the release reaction. It inhibits bradykinin-induced bronchospasm.

Cericlamine (INN) is a potent and moderately selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) of the amphetamine family that was investigated as an antidepressant for the treatment of depression, anxiety disorders, and anorexia nervosa by Jouveinal
