Next-generation agents include CagriSema (semaglutide + cagrilintide, NDA filed December 2025, showing 22.7% weight loss), retatrutide (triple GIP/GLP-1/glucagon agonist, 28.7% weight loss in Phase 3), and orforglipron (oral non-peptide GLP-1, submitted to FDA)
They change stomach size, hunger signaling, fullness, metabolism, and in some cases the way food and calories are absorbed
