What BI 3034701 is
Boehringer Ingelheim's first-in-class triple agonist that swaps glucagon for the NPY2 (PYY-type) satiety receptor, entering Phase 2 in July 2026 with no efficacy data yet.
Most triple agonists combine GLP-1, GIP and glucagon. BI 3034701 instead adds neuropeptide Y2 receptor activation, mimicking the gut hormone PYY's satiety signal.
Mechanism: Agonism of GLP-1, GIP and NPY2 receptors; the NPY2 component reproduces PYY-mediated appetite suppression.
Regulatory history: Investigational; Phase 2
How FDA treats this kind of product
Approves prescription drugs by indication and polices unapproved products, including peptides sold online. Compounding pharmacies may prepare some compounds under a prescription when the FDA places them on a permitted bulk-substances category.
The classification above is the The Longevity Archive reading of U.S. Food and Drug Administration listings for BI 3034701 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.
