The latest results from Eli Lilly’s Phase 3 TRIUMPH-4 trial show that the new drug retatrutide has achieved remarkable success in patients with obesity and knee osteoarthritis. Participants who received the highest dose of 12 mg lost an average of 28.7% of their body weight, a weight loss of up to 71.2 pounds. These results are particularly impressive as they show not only significant weight loss, but also a significant improvement in quality of life through pain relief and improved mobility.
Retatrutide is an innovative triple hormone receptor agonist that activates the receptors for GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon. This combination enables effective weight loss and pain relief, making it a promising candidate for the treatment of obesity and related diseases. The study showed that more than one in eight patients treated with retarutide were completely pain-free at the end of the study, highlighting the potential benefits of this drug.
The TRIUMPH-4 study is part of a comprehensive clinical development program evaluating the safety and efficacy of retatruide in various indications. In addition to obesity and knee osteoarthritis, the drug is also being tested in studies for type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea and other diseases. This broad research could help establish retarutide as an important component in the treatment of obesity and its complications.
The results of the study are promising, but there are also challenges. The most common side effects were nausea, diarrhea and constipation, but these were usually mild and rarely led to discontinuation of treatment. Researchers are optimistic that retatruide’s benefits outweigh its risks and that the drug could play a significant role in the future treatment of obesity.
With further Phase 3 trials scheduled to be completed by 2026, it remains to be seen how retatruide will perform in clinical practice. However, results so far suggest that it could be a promising option for patients with significant weight loss needs and certain complications.
