There is a little information in the literature related to the biological and pharmacological activity of estriol triacetate. And it has never been marketed.

Azaribine (2′, 3′, 5′-triacetyl-6-azauridine) is the orally absorbable triacetylated derivative of the pyrimidine analog 6-azauridine. Ribonucleoside of 6-azauracil, which can be derived in the tissues by the deacetylation of azaribine, has been shown, after its intracellular conversion to 6-azauridine-5'-monophosphate, to serve as an inhibitor of the activity of a key enzyme, orotidine-5'-monophosphate (OMP) decarboxylase, critically concerned with the biosynthesis de novo of pyrimidines essential for the formation of nucleic acids. Azaribine exerts antineoplastic action. In 1975 azaribine was approved for the treatment of psoriasis. The drug was withdrawn because it may cause life-threatening or fatal blood clots in the veins and arteries.

Clofibrate is a fibric acid derivative used to lower cholesterol and triglyceride (fat-like substances) levels in the blood. This may help prevent medical problems caused by such substances clogging the blood vessels. However, this treatment was discontinued in 2002 due to adverse effects. Clofibrate is an agonist of the PPAR-α receptor in muscle, liver, and other tissues. This agonism ultimately leads to modification in gene expression resulting in increased beta-oxidation, decreased triglyceride secretion, increased HDL, and increased lipoprotein lipase activity. Clofibrate increased the activity of extrahepatic lipoprotein lipase (LL), thereby increasing lipoprotein triglyceride lipolysis, inhibited the synthesis, and increases the clearance of apolipoprotein B, a carrier molecule for VLDL. In addition, clofibrate was investigated as a novel therapy agent in multiple myeloma and it shown the promising results.

Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP, INS316) is a naturally occurring agonist for P2Y(2) receptors on the apical surface of ciliated respiratory epithelium. INS316, being developed by Inspire Pharmaceuticals, is a short-acting, aerosolized uridine 5-triphosphate (UTP) solution used as a diagnostic aid for lung cancer. INS316 appears to improve sputum expectoration mediated through the P2Y2 receptor, a nucleotide receptor expressed in human airway epithelial cells and some other tissues. UTP binding to the P2Y2 receptor triggers signal transduction that leads to chloride ion secretion, thereby resulting in mucociliary clearance of airway. UTP stimulates salt and water transport and cilia beat frequency in human airway epithelium in vitro. Single, inhaled doses of UTP stimulate mucociliary clearance in conscious, intubated sheep and in patients with mild chronic bronchitis (smokers and former smokers), suggesting that UTP may be useful for obtaining deep-lung sputum specimens suitable for diagnostic purposes. A single dose of INS316 safely improves the ability of patients with mild chronic bronchitis to expectorate a deep-lung sputum specimen suitable for cytologic evaluation.
