Anaritide (Auriculin-Registered Trademark) is a 25-amino-acid synthetic form of atrial natriuretic peptide. Scios Nova was developing anaritide acetate for use in the treatment, prevention and diagnosis of acute renal failure, heart failure and hypertension. Scios suspended development of AURICULIN® anaritide based upon the results of an interim analysis of data from a 250-patient Phase III study in oliguric acute renal failure. The study was suspended due to the low probability that a positive outcome could be obtained with respect to its primary clinical endpoint, dialysis-free survival.

Iodide I-131 (as Sodium iodide I-131) is a radioisotopic drug used for the treatment and palliation of thyroid malignancy. Iodine-131 is notable for causing mutation and death in cells that it penetrates, which is due to its mode of beta decay. Iodide I-131 can be detected by gamma cameras for diagnostic imaging, however, it is rarely administered for diagnostic purposes only, imaging will normally be done following a therapeutic dose. Major uses of 131I include the treatment of thyrotoxicosis (hyperthyroidism) due to Graves' disease, and sometimes hyperactive thyroid nodules (abnormally active thyroid tissue that is not malignant). Iodine-131, in higher doses than for thyrotoxicosis, is used for ablation of remnant thyroid tissue following a complete thyroidectomy to treat thyroid cancer. The 131I isotope is also used as a radioactive label for certain radiopharmaceuticals that can be used for therapy, e.g. 131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine for imaging and treating pheochromocytoma and neuroblastoma. Because of the carcinogenicity of its beta radiation in the thyroid in small doses, I-131 is rarely used primarily or solely for diagnosis. Instead, the more purely gamma-emitting radioiodine iodine-123 is used in diagnostic testing. The longer half-lived iodine-125 is also occasionally used when a longer half-life radioiodine is needed for diagnosis, and in brachytherapy treatment, where the low-energy gamma radiation without a beta component makes iodine-125 useful.

Rusalatide acetate (also known as chrysalin or TP 508) is a 23-amino acid peptide derived from human prothrombin; it represents part of the receptor-binding domain of the human thrombin molecule. Rusalatide acetate binds to high-affinity thrombin receptors and mimics cellular effects of thrombin at sites of tissue injury. Rusalatide acetate demonstrated safety and potential efficacy in phase I/II clinical trials for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. It interacts with cell surface receptors to stimulate a cascade of cellular and molecular wound healing events, including activation of nitric oxide signaling. In addition, this drug participated in phase II clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of four doses for treating broken wrists in adults. However, this study was terminated because the drug did not demonstrate benefit compared to placebo. Rusalatide acetate was also studied as a cardiovascular drug. However, in January 2012, Capstone discontinued the development of rusalatide, for financial reasons. Recent studies show that a single injection of TP508 (rusalatide acetate) administered 24 h after irradiation significantly increases survival and delays mortality in murine models of acute radiation mortality. Thus, this drug is being developed as a potential nuclear countermeasure.
Sermorelin, a 29 amino acid analog of human growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), is the shortest synthetic peptide with a full biological activity of GHRH which is used as a diagnostic agent to assess growth hormone (GH) secretion for the purpose of diagnosing growth hormone deficiency. Intravenous and subcutaneous sermorelin specifically stimulate growth hormone secretion from the anterior pituitary. Sermorelin binds to the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor and mimics native GRF in its ability to stimulate growth hormone secretion. Hormone responses to intravenous sermorelin appear to be a rapid and relatively specific test for the diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency.
YTTRIUM Y-90 (YTRACIS®, YTTRIGA®) is a radioactive form of the chemical element yttrium. It is used for radiolabelling other medicines. An example of its use is the treatment of some type of tumors, where the radiolabelled medicine carries the radioactivity to the site of a tumor to destroy the tumor cells.
