Once‐daily oral small‐molecule glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist lotiglipron (PF‐07081532) for type 2 diabetes and obesity: Two randomized, placebo‐controlled, multiple‐ascending‐dose Phase 1 studies
Authors' conclusion
The profile of once-daily lotiglipron with doses up to 180 mg, as observed in these two Phase 1 studies, indicated a safety and tolerability profile consistent with the mechanism of action, with dose-dependent reductions in glycaemic indices (T2D) and body weight (both populations) after multiple doses.

Further findings
| Outcome | Lotiglipron | Placebo |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline in HbA1c (T2D, 180-mg dose) · 42 daysLeast squares mean, % | −1.61 (90% CI −2.08–-1.14) | −0.61 (90% CI −1.56–0.34) |
| Change from baseline in body weight (T2D, 180-mg dose) · 42 daysLeast squares mean, kg | −5.10 (90% CI −6.62–-3.58) | −2.06 (90% CI −4.47–0.36) |
- Change from baseline in HbA1c (T2D, 180-mg dose): 180-mg dose
- Change from baseline in body weight (T2D, 180-mg dose): 180-mg dose
Change from baseline in body weight (T2D, 180-mg dose) · 42 days
- Similar magnitude of weight loss in participants with obesity
Safety
- Most adverse events were mild
- 89.6%
- Nausea the most frequently reported in both studies
- No clinically meaningful adverse trends in safety laboratory tests, vital signs or ECG parameters
