WAY-161503 is a full agonist of 5-HT_2C receptors (Ki = 3.3 nM for displacement of DOI), ~6-fold less potent at 5-HT_2A receptors (Ki = 18 nM) and 20-fold less potent at 5-HT_2B receptors (Ki = 60 nM).^[1] In functional studies, it stimulates calcium mobilization coupled to 5-HT_2C, 5-HT_2B, and 5-HT_2A receptors with EC₅₀ values of 0.8, 1.8, and 7 nM, respectively.^[1] WAY-161503 has been reported to produce dose-dependent decreases in food intake in 24-hour fasted normal Sprague-Dawley rats, diet-induced obese mice, and obese Zucker rats with ED₅₀ values of 1.9, 6.8, and 0.73 mg/kg, respectively.^[1]

WAY-161503 has been used to examine the role of 5-HT_2C receptors in rodent models of depression, locomotor activity, reinforcement, or motivated behaviors.^[2]^[3]
