| Targets |
GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R). Lotiglipron is a potent and selective small-molecule agonist of the GLP-1 receptor, a class B GPCR. By activating this receptor, it enhances insulin secretion, suppresses glucagon release, and delays gastric emptying, leading to improved glycemic control and weight loss.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Lotiglipron is a potent agonist of the human GLP-1 receptor. In cell-based functional assays, it stimulates cAMP production with an EC50 in the low nanomolar range. Its oral bioavailability and once-daily dosing profile are key properties that differentiate it from injectable peptide agonists. In vitro, it has a favorable selectivity profile with minimal off-target activity.
|
| ln Vivo |
In clinical trials, once-daily oral administration of Lotiglipron demonstrated significant and clinically meaningful reductions in HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin) and body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes. The magnitude of weight loss was similar to that achieved with injectable GLP-1 agonists, confirming its potent in vivo efficacy.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A cell-free assay for GLP-1 agonists is performed using membranes from cells overexpressing the human GLP-1 receptor. Membranes are incubated with a radiolabeled high-affinity GLP-1 agonist (e.g., [125I]GLP-1) and varying concentrations of Lotiglipron. After filtration to separate bound and free ligand, the radioactivity is counted to calculate the Ki for receptor binding.
|
| Cell Assay |
A cellular functional assay is performed using HEK293 cells stably expressing the human GLP-1 receptor. Cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with varying concentrations of Lotiglipron. After incubation, intracellular cAMP accumulation is measured using a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) or luminescence-based detection kit to calculate the EC50 for receptor activation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
The primary in vivo efficacy data for Lotiglipron comes from Phase I and II clinical trials. The drug is administered orally once daily to patients with type 2 diabetes. Endpoints include the change from baseline in HbA1c (after ~12-16 weeks), fasting plasma glucose, and body weight. Safety and tolerability are also assessed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Lotiglipron is designed as an oral, once-daily GLP-1 agonist. Pharmacokinetic studies in humans confirmed its oral bioavailability, and it was formulated for once-daily dosing. However, Pfizer discontinued its development in 2023 due to safety concerns related to elevated liver enzymes observed in clinical trials.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The development of Lotiglipron was discontinued in 2023 due to safety findings. In Phase I and II trials, dose-dependent elevations in liver enzymes (transaminases) were observed in some patients. While no cases of Hyatt's law (a marker of severe drug-induced liver injury) were reported, the signal was considered sufficient to halt further development for safety reasons.

| Additional Infomation |
Lotiglipron is a small molecule drug. Its International Nonproprietary Name (INN) prefix "-glipron" indicates that lotiglipron is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist. Lotiglipron is currently being investigated in the clinical trial NCT05579977 (this trial aims to understand the efficacy of the investigational drug (PF-07081532) and Rebexasil in patients with type 2 diabetes, and to investigate the efficacy of PF-07081532 alone in obese individuals). The monoisotopic molecular weight of lotiglipron is 574.2 Da.
Lotiglipron was a highly anticipated candidate in the race to develop the first oral small-molecule GLP-1 agonist. It was part of Pfizer's partnership with Sosei Group to leverage their oral GPCR agonist platform. While ultimately discontinued due to liver safety signals, its development provided valuable insights into the challenges of developing safe, non-peptide agonists for class B GPCRs. Pfizer is continuing to develop a backup molecule, danuglipron. |
