What research says about Retatrutide

Retatrutide is a synthetic 39-residue lipidated peptide that acts as an agonist at the GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon receptors. It has been studied in phase 1 to phase 3 clinical trials and in preclinical models.

Reported as a single-peptide agonist of the GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon receptors; in obese mice the glucagon receptor component was associated with increased energy expenditure alongside GIP/GLP-1 receptor-driven reduction in calorie intake (Coskun 2022).

Investigational: phase 3 TRIUMPH-1 (NEJM, Sept 2026) and TRIUMPH-2 (Lancet, 2026) results are published and no marketing authorisation was identified.

More about Retatrutide

  • Research summary

    Retatrutide: what the published trials report

    Retatrutide is a single peptide that acts at three receptors: GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon. It has been tested in phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3 trials, and the results below are what those papers report.

  • Comparison

    Retatrutide vs tirzepatide: how they differ

    Tirzepatide acts at two receptors, GIP and GLP-1; retatrutide adds a third, glucagon. Tirzepatide is an approved medicine in the United States, while retatrutide was still investigational when this was written.
