About orforglipron Orforglipron is an investigational nonpeptide oral glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist being studied for chronic weight management in people with obesity or overweight, as well as for glucose lowering in people with type 2 diabetes.
Orforglipron was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and licensed by Lilly in 2018. Chugai and Lilly published the preclinical pharmacology data of this molecule together (PNAS 2020).
About retatrutide Retatrutide is an investigational single molecule that activates the body's receptors for three hormones – glucagon, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and is being studied for the treatment of obesity. Retatrutide is an acylated peptide suitable for weekly injection. Preclinical and phase 1 data have been published (Cell Metab 2022; Lancet 2022).
About tirzepatide Tirzepatide is a once-weekly GIP receptor and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Tirzepatide is a single molecule that activates the body's receptors for GIP and GLP-1, which are natural incretin hormones. Both GIP and GLP-1 receptors are found in areas of the human brain important for appetite regulation. Tirzepatide has been shown to decrease food intake and modulate fat utilization. Tirzepatide is in phase 3 development for adults with obesity, or overweight with weight-related comorbidity. It is also being studied as a potential treatment for people with obesity and/or overweight with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Studies of tirzepatide in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and in morbidity/mortality in obesity (MMO) are also ongoing.
Tirzepatide was approved as Mounjaro ® (tirzepatide) by the FDA on May 13, 2022. Mounjaro is a glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
