About LPCN 2401
LPCN 2401 is an oral formulation of a proprietary combination of anabolic androgen receptor agonist and α-alpha tocopherol, an antioxidant metabolic modifier. Data from preclinical and clinical studies support the potential of LPCN 2401 in gaining lean mass while losing fat mass. As adjunct therapy to incretin mimetics, LPCN 2401 has potential to attenuate weight rebound, ameliorate loss of muscle mass, improve muscle quality and functionality, amplify fat mass loss with improved body composition, and potential to maintain weight, prevent "fat overshoot," and accelerate muscle rebound post incretin mimetic discontinuation.
