Melanin cortogenic subject 4 (MC4R) is an integral part of the leptin-melanin cortiser pathline and plays an important role in weight regulation.
the MC4R path path line double allegen variant can lead to severe early-oncpring obesity.
researchers recently looked at the efficacy of the MC4R excitant Setmelanotide in patients with a lack of melanin-promoting cytokineline deficiency (POMC) or leptin-like subjects (LEPR).
10 medical centers in Canada, the United States, Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
obese patients aged 6 years and older with POMC or LEPR defects were first treated with setmelanotide or placebo double blindness for 4 weeks, followed by 32 weeks of public treatment.
of the study was 1 year later, the proportion of patients who lost 10 percent of their body weight compared to the baseline.
key secondary endpoints include alikert-like hunger score.
10 POMC deficiency obesity patients and 11 LEPR deficiency obesity patients completed the study, of which 8 (80%) POMC deficiency obesity patients and 5 (45%) LEPR deficiency obesity patients lost 10% of their weight after one year.
average likert-like hunger score in the POMC group decreased by 27.1% (n-7) and the LEPR group decreased by 43.7% (n-7).
adverse events in the POMC group were injection site reactions and excessive pigmentation.
adverse events in the LEPR group were injection site reactions and skin diseases, and no serious adverse events associated with treatment occurred.
this study supports setmelanotide's use in the treatment of melanin-promoting cytoprene deficiency or leptin-insuperative severe obesity and overeated appetite.
