/MAZDUTIDE_IBI362
Peptide

Mazdutide

Dual GLP-1/Glucagon Receptor Agonist (Oxyntomodulin Analog)

/HALF_LIFE
Approximately 7–10 days (supports once-weekly dosing)
/DELIVERY
Once-weekly subcutaneous injection

/WHAT_IT_IS

Mazdutide (IBI362 / LY3305677) is a once-weekly peptide dual agonist of the GLP-1 receptor and glucagon receptor, derived from the oxyntomodulin scaffold and engineered for prolonged half-life and potent metabolic effects.

/USAGE

Studied for chronic weight management and metabolic health, including reductions in body weight, waist circumference, liver fat, and improvements in glycemic and cardiometabolic markers.

/MECHANISM_OF_ACTION

Co-activates GLP-1R to enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion, suppress glucagon, slow gastric emptying, and reduce appetite, while GCGR activation increases energy expenditure and promotes lipid mobilization; the combined signaling yields greater weight loss vs. GLP-1–only agonism in studies.

Reported Benefits

  • +Clinically meaningful body-weight reduction
  • +Appetite suppression and improved satiety
  • +Improved glycemic control and cardiometabolic markers
  • +Reductions in liver fat and waist circumference in trials

Reported Side Effects

  • Class-typical GI effects (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea/constipation)
  • Decreased appetite
  • Injection-site reactions
  • Transient increases in pancreatic enzymes (e.g., lipase) reported
  • Rare: gallbladder disease or pancreatitis (GLP-1 class consideration)

/STACKED_WITH

Lifestyle interventions (dietary modulation, activity) in study designMetformin or SGLT2 inhibitor (comparator/combination research)Cagrilintide (amylin analog) for satiety-focused combination studies

/RESEARCH_NOTES

Phase 3 data in adults with overweight/obesity demonstrated significant weight loss at 4 mg and 6 mg once weekly; approved in China (June 2025) for chronic weight management. Monitor GI tolerability and pancreatic enzymes; consider gallbladder risk typical of incretin-based therapies.
