CJC-1295 Animal Research: Species & Outcome Comparison

Sprague-Dawley Rats 10–1000 mcg/kg SC 1.9× at 200 mcg/kg 8–12% at 200–500 mcg/kg Facial flushing, mild hyperglycaemia >500 mcg/kg Established dose-response curve; effects plateau above 200 mcg/kg; rodent model overstates human response magnitude Rhesus Macaque

This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Sprague-Dawley Rats
  • 10–1000 mcg/kg SC
  • 1.9× at 200 mcg/kg
  • 8–12% at 200–500 mcg/kg
  • Facial flushing, mild hyperglycaemia >500 mcg/kg
  • Established dose-response curve; effects plateau above 200 mcg/kg; rodent model overstates human response magnitude
  • Rhesus Macaques
  • 30–300 mcg/kg SC
  • 2.8× at 300 mcg/kg
  • 4.2% at 300 mcg/kg
  • Transient insulin resistance in 2/9 subjects
  • Primate data shows steeper IGF-1 response but shorter duration than rodents; more conservative effect size on lean mass
  • Domestic Pigs
  • 50–200 mcg/kg SC
  • 1.6× at 150 mcg/kg
  • 3.1% at 150 mcg/kg
  • Injection site inflammation in 18% of subjects
  • Large animal model; pharmacokinetics closer to humans than rodents; subcutaneous absorption rate variable across sites
