How It Works
GLP-1 Observer ranks clinical trials to surface the most commercially relevant programs first. Here's how to get the most out of the dashboard.
How Trials Are Ranked
Each trial receives a score based on multiple factors that indicate commercial relevance and near-term importance:
Phase Weight
Phase 3 trials score highest, followed by Phase 2. Later-stage trials are closer to market and more actionable.
Sponsor Profile
Major pharmaceutical sponsors (Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly, etc.) receive a boost, signaling higher likelihood of commercialization.
Completion Proximity
Trials nearing their primary completion date get priority. Results within 90-180 days are especially weighted.
Scale Indicators
Large enrollment and multi-site trials suggest well-funded, pivotal programs with higher commercial stakes.
Novel Mechanisms
Tri-agonists, amylin combinations, and other emerging mechanisms get a novelty boost in relevant views.
Recent Updates
Trials updated within the last 30 days score higher, indicating active development.
Dashboard Views
Commercial Leaders
Phase 3 programs from major sponsors, ordered by commercial momentum. Best for tracking the frontrunners likely to reach market first.
Emerging Mechanisms
Novel drug mechanisms and early-stage innovation from smaller sponsors. Highlights tri-agonists, oral formulations, and differentiated approaches.
Upcoming Readouts
Trials with near-term primary completion dates. Useful for anticipating catalyst events and data announcements.
Using the Dashboard
Opening Trial Details
Click any row to open the detail drawer on the right. The drawer shows trial summary, mechanism details, timeline history, and results if available.
Filtering & Sorting
Use the filter inputs to narrow by drug name, company, or phase. Sort by enrollment, completion date, or other columns using the dropdown.
Drawer Tabs
- Overview: Trial summary, drugs, differentiation, and links
- Timeline: Visual timeline of milestones and date changes
- Results: Posted results, endpoints, and safety data (when available)
Keyboard Shortcuts
Power users can navigate the dashboard entirely with the keyboard:
Data Sources
Trial data is sourced from ClinicalTrials.gov and updated daily. Historical change tracking uses AACT (Aggregate Analysis of ClinicalTrials.gov) for 5+ years of timeline data.
Drug mechanisms, press releases, results, and other data are enriched using AI-powered research and are cited to allow verification. Information on the site undergoes evaluations and expert human validation, but you should always verify critical details against primary sources.
