Coming back to: Nausea profile of amylin analogues compared with GLP-1 agonists

This follows post #2 rather than contradicting it.

Cagrilintide alone is discussed less than in combination because the published data is almost entirely from combination trials. The phase 2 combination data was consistent with more effect than either component alone, but phase 2 cannot establish whether that is synergy or simply additivity.

Thank you for the correction. I have edited my earlier post with a note rather than silently, so the thread still makes sense to read. The error was mine and it was the kind that comes from remembering a figure instead of looking it up.

Amylin signalling is distinct from GLP-1 signalling. Amylin slows gastric emptying and promotes satiety through a different receptor and different neural pathways. The hypothesis behind combination is two complementary satiety mechanisms with one injection.

post #35 answers the question as asked. The question underneath it is different.

Historical amylin analogues: pramlintide was the only long-acting amylin analogue licensed for some time and its poor adherence was a known limitation. A weekly formulation addresses that practical barrier.
