Regulatory status
Cagrilintide is an investigational compound. It does not have an approved drug label, and no regulatory agency has cleared it for medical use. Any research findings described below relate to ongoing clinical study, not an established use.
What cagrilintide is
Cagrilintide is a long chain peptide with the molecular formula C194H312N54O59S2 and a molecular weight of approximately 4,409 g/mol (PubChem CID 171397054). Because it lacks an approved label, there is no FDA-defined mechanism, indication, or dosing information to report.
Trial footprint
Cagrilintide has 45 registered clinical trials. Sampled studies include a trial comparing two injectable versions of cagrilintide against placebo in people with excess body weight, a study examining how a cagrilintide and semaglutide combination affects food intake, appetite, and stomach emptying, and a study comparing blood levels of cagrilintide and semaglutide given together versus separately. These trials involve people with overweight or obesity and remain part of an active research program.
FAQ
