CRA-026440 hydrochloride exhibits Ki values against recombinant HDAC isoenzymes HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, HDAC6, HDAC8, and HDAC10 are 4 nM, 14 nM, 11 nM, 15 nM, 7 nM, and 20 nM, respectively. CRA-026440 hydrochloride exhibits antitumor and antiangiogenic activities.

Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride is an albumin-binding prodrug of Doxorubicin, a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor. Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride is released from albumin under acidic conditions. Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride exhibits potent antitumor activities in various cancer cell lines and in murine tumor models.

EG01377 2HCl is a potent, bioavailable and selective inhibitor of neuropilin-1 (NRP1) with a Kd value of 1.32 μM and an IC50 value of 609 nM for both EG01377 2HCl against NRP1-a1 and NRP1-b1.EG01377 exhibits anti-angiogenic, antimigratory and antitumor activities.

GGTI-2418 is a highly potent, competitive, and selective inhibitor of geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I), exhibiting inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 9.5 nM for GGTase I and 53 μM for FTase, respectively. Additionally, it enhances p27(Kip1) expression and induces significant regression of breast tumors.

MBM-55S is an effective inhibitor of Nek2 with an IC50 of 1 nM. MBM-55S indecus cell cycle arrest and apoptosis thereby inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells. MBM-55S shows antitumor activities.

DRF-1042, an orally active camptothecin analog, exhibits anticancer and insecticidal activities by inhibiting DNA topoisomerase I. It has been studied for its efficacy against solid tumors, including prostate and colon cancers.

CCT 031374 hydrobromide is a TCF/β-catenin inhibitor with antitumor activities.

MKI-1 (MASTL Kinase Inhibitor-1) is an inhibitor of MASTL (microtubule-associated serine threonine kinase-like, IC50= 9.9 μM). MKI-1 exerts radiosensitizer and antitumor activities through PP2A activation in breast cancer.

Girinimbine (Girinimbin) is a carbazole alkaloid isolated from the plants M. koenigii, M. koenigii, and Murraya koenigii. Girinimbine exhibits a wide range of biological effects, including apoptosis, antitrypanosomal, antiplatelet, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antitumor activities.

2-Methyl-4-nitroimidazole (2-MNI) is a heterocyclic compound with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor activities.2-MNI has been used in a variety of fields including biochemistry, pharmacology, and biotechnology.

Tannic acid (Gallotannic acid) is a novel hERG channel blocker.

Catechin (Cianidanol) is a flavan-3-ol, a type of natural phenol and antioxidant.

Clioquinol (Iodochlorhydroxyquin) is an orally bioavailable, lipophilic, copper-binding, halogenated 8-hydroxyquinoline with antifungal, antiparasitic and potential antitumor activities.

Luteolin (Luteolol) belongs to the flavonoid group of natural products and is a Nrf2 inhibitor, PDE inhibitor. Luteolin has a wide range of biological activities including antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiallergic, and procoagulant.

Hesperidin (Cirantin) is a flavanone glycoside found in citrus fruits with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, and antihypertensive and lipid-lowering activity.

Bestatin (Ubenimex) competitively inhibits many aminopeptidases, including B, N and leucine aminopeptidases. Ubenimex is a microbial metabolite and dipeptide with potential immunomodulatory and antitumor activities. Aminopeptidases has been implicated in the process of cell adhesion and invasion of tumor cells. Therefore, inhibiting aminopeptidases may partially attribute to the antitumor effect of ubenimex. This agent also activates T lymphocyte, macrophage, and bone marrow stem cell as well as stimulates the release of interleukin-1 and -2, thus further enhances its antitumor activity.
