Etiprednol dicloacetate (BNP-166; ethyl-17alpha-dichloroacetoxy-11beta-hydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3-one-17beta-carboxylate) is a new soft steroid. The compound proved to be a dissociated glucocorticoid, showing a reduction in transactivating activity while preserving transrepressive abilities. The compound effectively decreased cytokine production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated lymphocytes and attenuated lectin-induced proliferation of blood mononuclear cells in tissue culture. The significant local effect of the compound will very likely be accompanied by a drastically reduced systemic activity indicating an encouraging selectivity of the pharmacological action of etiprednol dicloacetate. Etiprednol dicloacetate had been in a clinical trial for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, asthma and Crohn's disease. However, development has been discontinued.

Oximonam (also known as SQ 82,291) was developed as a monobactam antibiotic that had shown good activity against different bacteria of the family Enterobacteriaceae and Haemophilus influenzae and was no activity at all against staphylococci and against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Meclorisone is a synthetic corticosteroid exerting anti-inflammatory activity.

Prednival is prednisolone derivative patented by Francesco Vismara, Societa per Azioni as anti-inflammatory and progestational agent.

Triamcinolone acetonide- 21-dihydrogen phosphate is the long-acting derivative of a synthetic glucocorticoid triamcinolone. Triamcinolone acetonide has eight times more potency than prednisolone. Triamcinolone acetonide- 21-dihydrogen phosphate used for intravenous injection. It is supposed to be hydrolyzed rapidly in the body to form the free corticoid alcohol.

Topterone is an anti-androgen agent. Topterone inhibited stimulation of flank organ development of castrated immature male hamsters by both testosterone and dihydrotestosterone. Topical application of topterone on the flank organs of the male hamster did not cause any significant effect on testosterone metabolism of this tissue. In addition, there was no decrease in the lipogenic capacity of the flank organ. Topterone exerts its antiandrogenic action by binding with the cytosolic androgen receptor(s) in the flank organ thus inhibiting the action of dihydrotestosterone. Systemic administration demonstrated that topterone was both antiandrogenic and progestational. Topterone produced a mean inhibition of sebum excretion of 20% when it was applied topically for four weeks to the forehead skin of patients with acne.

Flumoxonide, an acetal derivative, is a synthetic glucocorticoid corticosteroid, it is an antiinflammatory agent for topical use.

Metoserpate (SU9064) is a sedative drug used in veterinary. PACITRAN (metoserpate hydrochloride) is indicated as a tranquilizer in stressed poultry.

Ciprocinonide (RS-2386) is a synthetic glucocorticoid corticosteroid. It was developed in the 1980s for a topical administration as a component of the Triple Corticoid Integrated System.

Procinonide is a derivative of fluocinolone acetonide that has been applied topically with fluocinonide and ciprocinonide in the management of various skin disorders.
