Retatrutide, a GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon receptor agonist, for people with type 2 diabetes: a randomised, double-blind, placebo and active-controlled, parallel-group, phase 2 trial conducted in the USA
Finding: Dose-dependent reduction in HbA1c and body weight. At 24 weeks, HbA1c fell by approximately 1.4-2.0 percentage points across retatrutide doses vs ~0.0 for placebo and ~1.4 for dulaglutide; substantial weight loss accompanied higher doses (mean ~ -16.9% at 12 mg by 24 weeks). GI adverse events were the most common and dose-related.
