[Articles] Amycretin, a novel, unimolecular GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonist administered subcutaneously: results from a phase 1b/2a randomised controlled study
In people with overweight or obesity, once-weekly subcutaneous amycretin up to 60 mg had a safety and tolerability profile consistent with GLP-1 and amylin agonists. Although a high frequency of gastrointestinal events was reported, rates were similar to those seen in early-phase studies of these molecules. These results support further investigation into the weight loss properties of amycretin.
