01

What is 710GO?

Plain language first. The technical label stays, but it never stands alone.

Overview

It pushes the brain's own fullness signal, the one setmelanotide boosts, but at two receptors with near-equal strength and in a form meant to be swallowed. In obese monkeys it cut weight by 11.8% against controls over 15 weeks, mostly fat. A phase 1 in about 100 people in Australia began in May 2026. Its sequence is undisclosed, and it is not approved anywhere.

The technical version

710GO is an oral peptide agonist of the MC3 and MC4 melanocortin receptors, developed by Endevica Bio and now run by its 2026 spinout Kalohexis.

What it's used for

An experimental obesity pill from the melanocortin family. Monkey data only so far; the first human trial started in May 2026.

02

How does 710GO work?

What it does in the body, and where.

710GO is a peptide built with non-standard amino acids and a C-terminal extension to survive the gut and avoid off-target receptors. Its sequence has not been published.

  1. 01
    Two receptors, equal weight
    In cell assays it activated MC3R (EC50 0.073 nM) and MC4R (0.042 nM) almost equally. In the same table setmelanotide was about 15 times more potent at MC4R than at MC3R.
  2. 02
    Why add MC3R
    The developers argue that MC3R activity spares lean mass and avoids the blood pressure rise seen with MC4R-focused drugs. In their monkeys 90% of the weight lost was fat, and setmelanotide raised night-time blood pressure where 710GO did not.
  3. 03
    By mouth
    Monkeys took it by mouth in saline. How it is absorbed, and how much reaches the blood, have not been disclosed.

Hits 2 receptors at once.

03

What else is it used for?

Each group carries its own evidence level.

Approved means regulators have cleared it for that purpose. Investigational means it is in trials. Early research means it is being studied and is not established.

Monkey studies

Early research
  • Animal studyObese male monkeys given it by mouth for 15 weeks lost 11.8% of body weight against controls; 90% of the loss was fat and lean mass did not fall significantly.
  • Animal studySix weeks after stopping, they had regained about a third of the lost weight.
  • Animal studyAdded to semaglutide for 19 days, weight fell 7.6% against 4.1% on semaglutide alone, in 4 and 3 animals.

In people

Investigational
  • No dataA phase 1 in Australia started dosing in May 2026. No results, doses or registry number have been released.
  • No dataThe authors note small groups, large variation between animals and male monkeys only.
Often left out

Company releases quote 11.7% monkey weight loss at 13 weeks; the peer-reviewed figure is 11.76% against controls after 15 weeks of dosing in 10 monkeys. The semaglutide combination appears as 6.5% against 3.0% in releases and 7.6% against 4.1% in the paper. A '1.1% regain' figure has no primary source; the paper reports a third of lost weight returning within 6 weeks off drug. The published work is Endevica Bio's; Kalohexis is a 2026 spinout. It is the opposite of mifomelatide, the same company's drug that blocks these receptors to raise appetite.

How much, and do you cycle it?

The range, and whether you take breaks.

No human dose disclosed, not established (daily in monkeys). No established pattern No range

Monkeys were dosed daily for up to 15 weeks, then stopped, and regained about a third of the lost weight within 6 weeks. No human schedule has been published.

How long does it stay in the body?

The half-life, and where the figure comes from.

Nothing publishedNo figure

The paper says only that 710GO and a sibling compound have similar pharmacokinetics; the data sit in a supplementary file that could not be read. Oral bioavailability has not been disclosed.

06

What does it cost?

Typical dose and cost, in plain numbers.

710GO is not injected

It is taken by mouth (oral). No human dose has been disclosed for the phase 1. Monkeys received 10 to 30 mg/kg by mouth once daily, or 15 mg/kg twice daily, doses that do not translate to people. Any dose offered for it would be invented.

07

How do you store it?

Before mixing, and after.

Room temperature. Cool, dry, out of light.

710GO is taken as a pill or capsule. Keep it in its original container at room temperature, away from heat, humidity, and direct sun. No fridge or mixing needed. Check the expiration date on the bottle.

08

What are the side effects and cautions?

Known cautions and warnings for this compound.

Who should avoid it

Check these before anything else.
  • Any use outside the phase 1: no human safety data have been published
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding

Stop and get help

These are emergencies. Seek care.
  • Not applicable outside the trial. No product exists and no human side-effect profile has been published

Common effects

Expected, and usually mild.
  • No human data have been published
  • In monkeys: no change in blood pressure, heart rate or QT interval at oral doses up to 60 mg/kg, and no vomiting or diarrhoea
  • Skin darkening and sexual effects, known with other melanocortin drugs, were not reported in the monkey paper

Where this page says nothing is established, that means nobody has studied it, not that a compound is safe.

09

Is 710GO approved?

And where the numbers on this page come from.

No. 710GO is not approved anywhere and is currently in company-run clinical trials. There is no legal route to obtain it outside a trial.

What has happened recently

Not approved anywhere. Kalohexis announced on 28 May 2026 that the first people had been dosed in a randomised, placebo-controlled phase 1 in Australia with single-dose, 28-day multiple-dose and food-effect parts, in about 100 healthy volunteers with overweight or obesity. No registry number or dose levels have been disclosed. Kalohexis filed a confidential draft IPO registration in July 2026. No INN, UNII or CAS has been assigned.
