Lotiglipron is a non-peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist which was under development by Pfizer as a weight loss drug. [1] However, it was withdrawn from development in June 2023, after early stage clinical trials showed elevated liver enzymes which could indicate potential for liver toxicity. [2]
