Ipamorelin in ferrets: weight loss and vomiting were different endpoints

Researchers compared two ghrelin-receptor agonists using intestinal tissue and a cisplatin-exposure ferret model.

01 / DESIGN

What was studied?

Researchers compared two ghrelin-receptor agonists using intestinal tissue and a cisplatin-exposure ferret model.

02 / FINDINGS

What did the researchers report?

Both interventions attenuated delayed weight loss. Systemically delivered ipamorelin did not reduce acute or delayed vomiting; a central antiemetic result concerned anamorelin instead.

03 / INTERPRETATION

What are the limits?

Effects from another agonist or administration route cannot be assigned to ipamorelin. The animal experiment does not establish clinical supportive-care benefits.
