Frequently asked questions about CagriSema

What is CagriSema?

CagriSema is an investigational combination therapy being developed by Novo Nordisk for type 2 diabetes and obesity. It combines cagrilintide and semaglutide in a single treatment. CagriSema is in Phase 3 clinical development and has not been approved by the FDA. It is designed to address both blood sugar control and weight loss.

What is CagriSema used for?

CagriSema is being studied for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Clinical trials are evaluating its ability to lower blood sugar and reduce body weight in adults, and one trial is testing it in children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes. It remains investigational and is not yet approved for any indication.

What does CagriSema target?

CagriSema targets both the GLP-1 and amylin (AMY) pathways. It combines cagrilintide, an amylin analog, with semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. This dual mechanism is intended to influence appetite regulation and glucose control, which are relevant to treating type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Who makes CagriSema?

CagriSema is developed by Novo Nordisk A/S, which trades under the ticker NVO. Novo Nordisk is running the Phase 3 clinical program evaluating the combination of cagrilintide and semaglutide across obesity and type 2 diabetes populations.

What phase is CagriSema in?

CagriSema is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA. Novo Nordisk is conducting late-stage trials in type 2 diabetes and obesity, including studies in adults and in children and adolescents, with additional earlier-stage work ongoing.

What clinical trials is CagriSema in?

CagriSema is being evaluated in several registered trials. These include NCT07817251, which studies switching from semaglutide to CagriSema in type 2 diabetes; NCT07564414, a weight-loss study in obesity with or without type 2 diabetes; NCT07282613, a pediatric type 2 diabetes trial; and NCT07184086, a metabolism study in obesity.
