Potassium cation K-42 is a radioactive tracer. It was used to study K exchanges across the myocardial cell wall and measuring uptake of isotope by the myocardium, to measure of potassium ion influx in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and other researches related to K-transport in vivo and in vitro.

Chromic Phosphate Cr-51 is a radiopharmaceutical compound that has been extensively used in nuclear medicine. When administered intraperitoneally, the particulate form of chromic phosphate is pocketed in various areas of the peritoneum, or filtered out by the first lymph nodes encountered, because of the too large particle size, whereas the colloidal form is carried over to the lymphatic system. The larger particles originally present in its size spectrum or formed in vivo by aggregation of smaller particles are trapped by the first line of lymph nodes, and the remainder goes into the thoracic duct, with posterior incorporation into the blood circulation and final removal by the reticuloendothelial system: liver, spleen and bone marrow.

Safotibant (previously known as LF22-0542) was developed as an antagonist at bradykinin B1 receptor for the topical treatment of diabetic macular edema. This drug participated in phase II clinical trials in Australia, in Belgium and in the Czech Republic. However, further, development was discontinued.

Oxi0-4503 (now known as combretastatin A1 phosphate), a diphosphate prodrug of combretastatin A1, was developed by Mateon therapeutics as a second-generation, dual-mechanism vascular disrupting agent from the combretastatin family. On November 21, 2012, Oxi-4503 has been granted orphan designation by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of acute myelogenous leukemia. It is known that the orphan drug designation qualifies a company for several benefits, including the potential for market exclusivity, development grants, and tax credits. Oxi0-4503 is currently participating in phase I/II clinical trial the treatment of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. In addition, phase I clinical trial was successfully completed where was studied the safety of Oxi0-4503 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Triciribine is a purine analogue which inhibits DNA and protein synthesis, it is a synthetic tricyclic nucleoside which acts as a specific inhibitor of the Akt signaling pathway. It selectively inhibits the phosphorylation and activation of Akt1, -2 and -3 but does not inhibit Akt kinase activity nor known upstream Akt activators such as PI 3-Kinase and PDK1. It inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis preferentially in cells that express aberrant Akt1. In whole cells triciribine is phosphorylated by adenosine kinase which may be necessary for its activity. Triciribine is a cancer drug which was first synthesised in the 1970s and trialled clinically in the 1980s and 1990s without success. Following the discovery in the early 2000s that the drug would be effective against tumours with hyperactivated Akt, it is now again under consideration in a variety of cancers. As PTX-200, the drug is currently in two early stage clinical trials in breast cancer and ovarian cancer being conducted by the small molecule drug development company Prescient Therapeutics.

Megalomicin is a Micromonospora-produced macrolide antibiotic complex. Megalomicin A component was studied most extensively. It inhibited the ATP-dependent acidification of lysosomes and intra-Golgi transport in vitro. Megalomicin induces a powerful inhibitory effect on HIV-1 replication at nontoxic concentrations by preventing the processing of HIV-1 gp160 envelope protein and the subsequent formation of infectious viral particles.
