Metabolism

Cagrilintide is a long-acting analog of the hormone amylin, which is co-secreted with insulin by the beta cells of the pancreas. It acts at amylin and calcitonin receptors and influences satiety, gastric emptying and food intake. Cagrilintide is investigated primarily in combination with the GLP-1 analog semaglutide (the "CagriSema" combination) to achieve additive effects on body weight.
