A long-acting amylin analog studied in combination with GLP-1 therapies for weight management.
Cagrilintide is a long-acting amylin analog. Amylin is a hormone co-secreted with insulin that plays a role in appetite regulation and glucose control. Cagrilintide is being studied particularly in combination with GLP-1 receptor agonists for potentially additive effects.
Cagrilintide is investigational and currently undergoing clinical trials, often studied in combination with other compounds. It has not received FDA approval for any use as a standalone or combination therapy.
