Educational Explanation & Context
In Therapept's 32-compound library, 9 compounds are FDA-approved prescription therapeutics, 2 are investigational molecules undergoing registered clinical trials, and the remainder are preclinical research chemicals studied only in cell cultures or animals.
FDA-approved peptides have completed extensive multi-phase human clinical trials demonstrating safety and efficacy for specific medical indications (e.g. Semaglutide for obesity/diabetes, Tesamorelin for HIV visceral lipodystrophy, Teriparatide for osteoporosis). Investigational candidates like Retatrutide and Cagrilintide have completed Phase 2 trials and are in active Phase 3 testing.
Therapept strictly categorizes all compounds into three evidentiary worlds: FDA-Approved Therapeutics, Investigational Drug Candidates, and Preclinical Research Chemicals.
Substances like BPC-157 and TB-500, despite massive internet popularity, have zero completed Phase 3 randomized human clinical trials.
