What it is

Cagrilintide is a long-acting amylin analogue under investigation alone and combined with semaglutide for body-weight research.

Pathway Diagram

Mechanism of Action

CRL · MOA-01

Co-activates amylin and calcitonin receptors, slowing gastric emptying and promoting satiety signaling.

  1. Step 01
    Receptor Binding

    Peptide engages target receptor with high affinity.

  2. Step 02
    Signal Cascade

    Downstream intracellular pathways activate.

  3. Step 03
    Cellular Response

    Gene expression and protein synthesis shift.

  4. Step 04
    Observed Outcome

    Measurable change in the studied biomarker.

Research highlights

Long-acting amylin analogue with weekly dosing profile.
Phase 2 monotherapy: up to ~10.8% mean weight loss at 26 weeks.
CagriSema (with semaglutide) achieved ~15.6% weight loss at 32 weeks.
Dual amylin/calcitonin receptor engagement promotes satiety.
