Setmelanotide (IMCIVREE™) is a melanocortin-4 (MC4) receptor agonist developed by Rhythm Pharmaceuticals (Rhythm) for the treatment of ultrarare genetic disorders of obesity. Setmelanotide was approved on 27 November 2020 in the USA as a subcutaneous (SC) injectable formulation for chronic weight management in adult and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older with obesity due to proopiomelanocortin (POMC), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1), or leptin receptor (LEPR) deficiency confirmed by genetic testing demonstrating variants in POMC, PCSK1, or LEPR genes that are interpreted as pathogenic, likely pathogenic, or of uncertain significance (VUS). Rhythm are also developing the drug for the treatment of obesity associated with other rare genetic disorders including Bardet–Biedl Syndrome, Alström Syndrome, POMC and other MC4R pathway heterozygous defciency obesities, and POMC epigenetic disorders.
