The pipeline
Weight-management medicines in clinical trials, from first-in-human studies to Phase 3, plus the trials of medicines that are already approved. Built from the public ClinicalTrials.gov registry.
How to read this page. A trial appearing here means it is registered. It does not mean the medicine works, is safe, or is available to buy. Medicines still in trials are not approved products, and anything sold under these names today is not an FDA-approved medicine. The tracker has two groups. Weight-management trials study people with obesity or overweight. Diabetes-only trials study the same medicines in people with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, where weight is not the main condition. The page shows the weight group first, and the Population filter switches to the other group or to both. A medicine approved for diabetes is not thereby approved for weight management. The registry lists which medicines a trial uses, not the doses, so this page does not show doses. Trial details come from ClinicalTrials.gov as of October 2026, and the registry changes every day.
Medicines in development
Sorted by the furthest trial phase, then by how many trials are active. A class is filled in only for medicines the Atlas already recognizes. Registry code names are shown exactly as the registry writes them.

Every trial
1,595 trials listed across both groups.
This list shows the 100 most recently starting weight-management trials. With JavaScript on, the full list of 1,595 trials loads and the filters work across all of them.
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov, run by the US National Library of Medicine. Each trial title links to its full registry record. 3,143 registry records were screened to build this list. A trial is listed in the weight group when it names a recognized weight-management medicine or a development code name, and its conditions or title mention obesity, overweight or weight. It is listed in the diabetes-only group when it tests one of those same medicines in type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. Diabetes trials of medicines that do not appear in a weight-management trial, such as insulins, are not included.
