The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide compared with placebo for body weight reduction. Participation in the study will last about 65 weeks and may include about 18 visits.
Phase 3 trials are pivotal studies with large patient populations (hundreds to thousands) designed to prove efficacy and safety for FDA submission. A successful Phase 3 readout is typically the last major hurdle before a New Drug Application (NDA) or BLA filing.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (51/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
