UK-432097 is a selective adenosine A2a agonist which was in development with Pfizer as an inhaled treatment for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. UK-432097 had been in phase II clinical trials by Pfizer for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, this study was terminated prematurely due to futility based on results of interim analysis.

Imitrodast is thianaphthene derivative and thromboxane A2 inhibitor patented by Japanese pharmaceutical company Sankyo Co as antithrombotic agent.

Norgesterone (norvinodrel, vinylestrenolone) is a progestin medication which was formerly used in birth control pills for women. The compound shows no androgenic and very little estrogenic activity; its progestational effect, as well as other properties, suggests its use as claudogenic agent. Norgesterone is an agonist of the progesterone receptor. It was used in combination with ethinylestradiol in birth control pills to prevent pregnancy.

Trodusquemine (MSI-1436) is a "first-in-class" highly selective non-competitive, allosteric inhibitor of PTP1B that can cross the blood-brain barrier to suppress feeding and promote insulin sensitivity and glycemic control. Trodusquemine is a naturally occurring cholestane that can be purified from the liver of the dogfish shark, Squalus acanthias, but it can also be manufactured synthetically by a fairly laborious process that requires several weeks. Trodusquemine has potential hypoglycemic, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, trodusquemine selectively targets and inhibits PTP1B, thereby preventing PTP1B-mediated signaling. This prevents the dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor, which improves insulin signaling and insulin sensitivity, and decreases blood glucose levels. In susceptible cancer cells, inhibition of PTP1B causes a reduction of tumor cell proliferation.

Sonedenoson (MRE0094) is a topical adenosine A2A-receptor agonist which was under clinical development for the treatment of for diabetic foot ulcer. The compound was originally developed by New York University, and licensed to Medco Research (King Pharmaceuticals). King Pharmaceuticals was acquired by Pfizer in 2010. Sonedenoson has been in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of chronic diabetic neuropathic foot ulcers. However, this research has been discontinued.

Dacuronium is an aminosteroid, acting as a competitive antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. In animals, dacuronium worked as a short-acting muscle relaxant with a rapid onset of action. In a clinical trial, dacuronium was markedly less potent than tubocurarine and did not show a rapid recovery from its action.

Roxibolone, an androstane derivative, possesses the anti-glucocorticoid activity and devoid of any affinity for the androgenic prostate and muscle receptors. This anabolic drug has never been marketed.

Cortisuzol is a glucocorticoid corticosteroid, discovered by the French company Roussel Uclaf, and claimed to have anti-inflammatory activity in a number of clinical case reports.

LAFLUNIMUS is an immunomodulator with anti-inflammatory activities. It inhibits prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthases 1 and 2 in vitro and in vivo. It also acts as an immunosuppressive agent being an inhibitor of mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase and concomitant reducing agent of pyrimidine nucleotide pools.

Cicrotoic acid is a biochemical drug that acts on bile flow and liquid composition of human bile.
