Mice have a much higher mass-specific metabolic rate and substantial brown adipose thermogenesis, so interventions that raise energy expenditure can show larger relative effects than in humans. Receptor expression patterns, including GIP and glucagon receptors in adipose, also differ between species.
None of this makes the mouse work wrong; it makes it a model, with a known translation gap.
In diet-induced obese mice the compound reduced food intake and body weight and increased energy expenditure, and the glucagon component was implicated in the expenditure effect through comparison with molecules lacking it. Non-human primate studies characterised pharmacokinetics and tolerability.
These findings justified the first human study and informed its design. They are the hypothesis the trials then tested.
Weight reduction and glycaemic improvement transferred and were quantified in the phase 2 trials. Energy expenditure was not directly measured in people in those trials, so the contribution of that mechanism in humans remains inferred from the animal data rather than confirmed.
Distinguishing what was measured in people from what was measured in mice is the discipline that secondary summaries most often lose.
