Mechanisms of Action
Data presented from peer-reviewed in vitro studies. All findings are laboratory observations only.
Jastreboff et al. published the Phase II Retatrutide trial in NEJM 2023, showing dose-dependent weight loss up to 24.2% mean body weight reduction at 48 weeks in the maximum dose cohort — surpassing all previously published GLP-1 class data including tirzepatide and semaglutide.
Retatrutide is the first triple GIP/GLP-1/Glucagon receptor agonist. Phase II data published in NEJM showed up to 24.2% mean body weight reduction at 48 weeks — exceeding all previously studied GLP-1 agonists including tirzepatide (22.5%) and semaglutide (14.9%).

Phase II Trial — New England Journal of Medicine, 2023
Mean Body Weight Reduction at 48 Weeks (Maximum Dose Cohort)
Comparative Activity Profile
In Vitro Safety Data
Retatrutide's Phase II safety profile is consistent with the GLP-1 receptor agonist class. GI adverse events (nausea, vomiting) are dose-dependent and typical of the incretin mechanism class. Phase III trials ongoing.
Observed Adverse Indicators
Cardiovascular adverse events
NoneHepatotoxicity markers
NoneNausea (GLP-1 class effect)
MinimalVomiting (dose-dependent)
Minimal⚠️ Theoretical Concern
Retatrutide (LY3437943) is an investigational compound in Phase III trials as of 2024. Regulatory approval has not been granted. Phase II safety data is available but long-term safety profile is not yet fully characterised.
Researcher Reference
Glucagon receptor activation drives hepatic glucose production and thermogenesis — increasing energy expenditure. Combined with GLP-1's appetite suppression and GIP's insulin amplification and adipose signalling, the triple mechanism produces additive metabolic effects. This is why the 24.2% weight loss exceeds the dual agonist tirzepatide (22.5%).
No. Retatrutide (LY3437943) is in Phase III trials by Eli Lilly (2024). It produced the highest Phase II weight loss result of any compound in the incretin class to date. Regulatory approval is contingent on Phase III outcomes.
Lyophilised: −20°C up to 24 months. Reconstituted: 4°C, use within 28 days. Do not freeze reconstituted solution.
