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.

Fostedil (10(-5)-10(-4) M) decreased the action potential duration measured at 30% repolarization and hyperpolarized the resting membrane potential in ventricular trabeculae of the dog heart. In single ventricular cells of the guinea-pig heart, Fostedil (10(-4) M) abolished the slow inward current and produced an outward shift of the late current measured at the end of 200 msec clamp pulse.
