Evidence boundaryTesofensine is a monoamine reuptake inhibitor, not a peptide or GLP-1 agonist. A 203-person phase II trial showed weight-loss signals but also adverse effects including increased heart rate. A developer-reported non-binding committee opinion is not verified marketing authorisation, and Tesomet is a separate combination.An investigational triple GIP/GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonist with Phase 2 and Phase 3 research, but no marketing authorisation established in the reviewed jurisdictions.An experimental ERR agonist with preclinical-only evidence; animal exercise-mimetic findings do not establish human benefit.
Unknowns

Insufficient data in the current dataset

  • Long-term benefits and risks in populations broader than those enrolled in the trials
  • Final cardiovascular and kidney outcomes from ongoing outcomes programmes
  • The indications, labelling, contraindications and conditions regulators may specify if approval is granted in the future
  • The quality and actual composition of products sold outside clinical trials
  • human pharmacokinetics, bioavailability and target engagement
  • safe exposure range and short- or long-term adverse effects in humans
  • whether mouse endurance and metabolic findings translate to people
  • comparability between published research material and products offered online
  • current product-specific status in Thailand, the United States, European Union and United Kingdom
  • case-specific anti-doping classification and analytical thresholds
Limitations
  • Tesofensine ≠ GLP-1 ≠ Tesomet; favorable non-binding opinion ≠ marketing authorisation
  • Major studies were funded by Eli Lilly, and several authors were affiliated with the company. Populations, durations and comparator groups differed. Some Phase 3 results in 2026 were still reported as topline manufacturer statements rather than peer-reviewed articles. Cross-study comparisons with semaglutide or tirzepatide are not head-to-head evidence.
  • The core efficacy literature consists of cell and mouse studies from a limited research lineage. Human-derived cell work does not establish exposure, efficacy or safety in a person. No verified clinical administration dataset means an evidence grade above E is not justified. Later work on SLU-PP-915 is about a different molecule and cannot be transferred to SLU-PP-332.

Missing fields mean information is unavailable in the current structured dataset, not that a molecule has no risks or uncertainties. English translations retain the original evidence boundaries. Where translation is not yet verified, the original Thai excerpts remain available under an explicit label. Sources retain their original language.
