Obinepitide
Obinepitide Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Obinepitide is a synthetic analogue of two natural human hormones, PYY and Pancreatic Polypeptide, which normally are released during a meal. These hormones are known to play a role in the regulation of food intake and appetite in man as satiety signal from the GI-tract to the CNS. In obinepitide, the properties of both of these hormones have been implanted into a single molecule.

How Obinepitide works
TM30338 is a first-in-class compound, which in a single drug targets both the Y2 and the Y4 receptor with similar and very high potency. The Y2 and the Y4 receptors have both previously been validated in man as independent appetite suppressive drug targets through the use of the natural hormones. In pre-clinical studies in diet-induced obese animals the dual active TM30338 has demonstrated clear superiority in respect of long term reduction in body weight reduction as compared, for example, to the natural hormone PYY3-36, which only targets the Y2 receptor.
