Clinical status: Phase 2b obesity trial completed (did not meet primary endpoint). Marketed as a food ingredient in some jurisdictions. No therapeutic approval.
§ A Overview

What the peptide is.

AOD9604 is a modified C-terminal fragment of hGH (residues 176-191), engineered by Metabolic Pharmaceuticals. It was studied in a Phase 2b obesity trial that did not meet its primary endpoint.

The peptide is approved as a food ingredient in some jurisdictions but has no therapeutic approval.

Proposed mechanism

Proposed: direct effects on adipocyte lipolysis, independent of GH receptor signalling.

§ B Laboratory handling

Reconstitution, storage, and handling.
