2 studies
  1. LY3437943 decreases body weight in humans (placebo-adjusted, dose-dependent) (up to -8.96 kg (90% CI -11.16 to -6.75) in the 3/6/9/12 mg group).

    “Placebo-adjusted bodyweight reduction with LY3437943 appeared to be dose dependent (up to -8·96 kg [90% CI -11·16 to -6·75] in the 3/6/9/12 mg group).”
