Cagrilintide
Cagrilintide is a long-acting amylin analogue that enhances satiety, being studied in combination with semaglutide for powerful weight loss.
Patient-Friendly Explanation
Cagrilintide is a long-acting medication that mimics a natural hormone called amylin, which helps you feel full after eating. It is being studied in combination with semaglutide (as CagriSema) to achieve even more powerful weight loss results.
Clinical Definition
Cagrilintide is an amylin analogue that acts on the area postrema and nucleus tractus solitarius to enhance satiety and delay gastric emptying. In clinical trials, cagrilintide combined with semaglutide (CagriSema) demonstrated superior weight loss compared to semaglutide monotherapy, with mean reductions exceeding 15% of body weight.
