flag Eli Lilly's new weight loss drug caused 9.5%–20.1% weight loss in obese adults, outperforming placebo and improving health markers.

flag Eli Lilly's experimental weight loss drug eloralintide, an amylin analog, led to 9.5% to 20.1% body weight loss in overweight or obese adults without type 2 diabetes, compared to 0.4% in the placebo group, according to Phase 2 trial results published in The Lancet. flag The once-weekly drug, which mimics the hormone amylin to regulate appetite and digestion, also improved blood pressure, cholesterol, and inflammation markers. flag Early data suggest it may preserve more lean muscle mass than GLP-1 drugs. flag Eli Lilly plans to begin Phase 3 trials later this year, with other companies like Novo Nordisk also advancing similar treatments.
