Orforglipron (LY3502970), a novel, oral non-peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist: A Phase 1b, multicentre, blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized, multiple-ascending-dose study in people with type 2 diabetes.

Orforglipron treatment resulted in meaningful reductions in HbA1c and body weight, with an adverse event profile consistent with that of other GLP-1RAs. Orforglipron may provide a safe and effective once-daily oral treatment alternative to injectable GLP-1RAs or peptide oral formulations without water and food restrictions.
