Classtriple agonist
Also known asLY3437943
Chain length-
Molecular weight4,731.33 Da
Half-life≈6 days (reported in clinical PK summaries/reviews; supports once-weekly dosing)
RouteSubcutaneous (SC) in clinical trials
Studied forInvestigational for obesity/chronic weight management and metabolic disease (including type 2 diabetes).
Research useMetabolic research (energy balance, appetite, glucose control) and mechanistic studies (e.g., gastric emptying, incretin/glucagon receptor pharmacology).
What has been shownDose-dependent, clinically meaningful weight loss reported in a phase 2 obesity trial (highest studied maintenance dose 12 mg once weekly, SC).; Metabolic improvements consistent with incretin/glucagon multi-agonism (reported across early clinical development literature).
How it worksInvestigational "triple agonist" that activates GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, aiming to reduce appetite/food intake, improve glycemic control, and increase energy expenditure.
Patent statuspatented (assumed for an active investigational asset; verify per jurisdiction if needed)
Regulatory statusinvestigational / clinical-stage
