Dual cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)/5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors are potential therapeutic agents for inflammatory diseases and for prostate cancer. CAY10416 is a dual COX-2/5-LO inhibitor with IC₅₀ values of 50 and 3 nM, respectively. The selectivity of CAY10416 for COX is greater than 200-fold for COX-2 versus COX-1. COX-2/5-LO inhibitors such as CAY10416 are also apoptosis-inducing agents and are potentially useful in prostate cancer chemotherapy. In the PC3 human carcinoma cell line, CAY10416 exhibits a 45% inhibition of proliferation at 100 μM. In the LNCaP human carcinoma cell line, CAY10416 inhibits growth with an IC₅₀ value of 83 μM.

3-[[3-fluoro-5-(tetrahydro-4-methoxy-2H-pyran-4-yl)phenoxy]methyl]-1-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-5-phenyl-1H-pyrazole is a dual inhibitor of Cox-2 and 5-LO.
