What Berobenatide is
An ultra-long-acting GLP-1 agonist with a roughly 15-day half-life built for once-monthly injection, the centerpiece of Pfizer's Metsera acquisition and now heading into ten Phase 3 trials.
Berobenatide uses an albumin-binding 'halo-lipidation' design that stretches the half-life of a fully biased GLP-1 receptor agonist to about 360 hours. 3% placebo-adjusted loss at week 28 with no plateau.
Mechanism: Long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonism (appetite suppression, slowed gastric emptying) with an engineered half-life that allows weekly induction followed by monthly dosing.
Regulatory history: Investigational; Phase 3 program planned 2026
How TGA treats this kind of product
Registers or lists therapeutic goods on the ARTG and schedules substances in the Poisons Standard. Many peptides are Schedule 4 (prescription only), so possession without a prescription and personal importation are restricted even when no product is registered.
The classification above is the The Longevity Archive reading of Therapeutic Goods Administration listings for Berobenatide at the reviewed date, not a legal opinion. Rules change, and importing, prescribing and possessing a compound can each be treated differently. Check the regulator directly before acting on anything here.
