Werkingsmechanisme
Cagrilintide
Cagrilintide binds amylin receptors (AMY1, AMY3, formed by the calcitonin receptor plus RAMP proteins). Activation delays gastric emptying, inhibits postprandial glucagon secretion and modulates central satiety signalling via area postrema neurons. An acyl modification enables albumin binding and thereby weekly dosing.
VK2735
VK2735 activates both the GLP-1 and the GIP receptor — a dual mechanism similar to that of tirzepatide, suppressing appetite and food intake.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Cagrilintide and VK2735?
- Cagrilintide is classified as "Metabool", while VK2735 is classified as "Metabool". Cagrilintide: Synthetic long-acting amylin analog being developed in combination with semaglutide (CagriSema). Phase 3 trials for obesity and type 2 diabetes are ongoing. No marketing approval yet. VK2735: VK2735 is a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist from Viking Therapeutics, in development in both subcutaneous and oral forms for obesity. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Cagrilintide or VK2735?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Cagrilintide and "Humane RCT" for VK2735. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of Cagrilintide and VK2735 in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Cagrilintide — Niet goedgekeurd, VK2735 — Niet goedgekeurd. Verenigde Staten: Cagrilintide — Niet goedgekeurd, VK2735 — Niet goedgekeurd. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
