Analysis

Theratechnologies-developed synthetic analogue of human GHRH. FDA-approved 2010 (as Egrifta) for the treatment of excess abdominal fat in HIV-infected adults with lipodystrophy. Subsequent investigation in NAFLD/NASH and metabolic indications.

Tesamorelin is a synthetic stabilised analogue of human GHRH(1-44) developed by Theratechnologies and approved by FDA in 2010 (brand: Egrifta) for the reduction of excess abdominal fat in HIV-infected adults with lipodystrophy. Falagas 2010 (Clin Infect Dis) and the subsequent Stanley 2014 (JAMA) trial are the key evidence base. The Phase 2/3 work in HIV-associated NAFLD/NASH (Stanley 2019, Lancet HIV) extends the dossier into liver-fat-reduction outcomes within the HIV cohort. Methodology v1.2 scores Tesamorelin 7.7, the highest score among the GHRH/GHRP class because it is the only molecule in the class with a regulated indication, an established supply chain through specialty pharmacies, and a full Phase 3 dossier. The score remains below the GLP-1 RAs because the trial population is narrow (HIV-associated lipodystrophy, not general weight management) and the off-label use the research-channel market promotes, anti-aging, general body-composition, athletic performance, has no supportive trial evidence. WADA prohibits tesamorelin under Class S2. Within its approved indication and supervised under specialist HIV care, tesamorelin is the most-validated peptide in the GHRH class. Outside that indication, the evidence base is thin.

Höher ist besser. Zahlen sind tabellarisch, die Methodik steht auf der Methodik-Seite, und ja — Anbieter-Verlässlichkeit zählt, weil das Fälschungsrisiko real ist.

Vor- und Nachteile

WAS FUNKTIONIERTWAS NICHT FUNKTIONIERT
Falagas et al. 2010 and Stanley et al. 2014 are the key Phase 3 trials; the regulated indication is real and the Phase 4 surveillance dossier is meaningful.WADA-prohibited (S2), athletic-population sanctions risk.
NAFLD/NASH Phase 2/3 trials (Stanley 2019, Lancet HIV) extend the dossier into liver-fat reduction in the HIV population.Off-label prescribing for general anti-aging or fat-loss indications outside the approved HIV-lipodystrophy population is not supported by published trial evidence.
Established supply chain through regulated specialty pharmacies, the only GHRH-class peptide with a quality-controlled commercial route.Daily subcutaneous injection; adherence ceiling lower than weekly molecules.
Long-term safety record across HIV-lipodystrophy cohorts since 2010.Cost remains a meaningful barrier in non-insured contexts.
