Oral GHSR-1a agonist studied for GH pulse amplification and IGF-1 elevation.
≥99% HPLC Purity MS Confirmed Janoshik COA Research Use Only
What is MK-677 (Ibutamoren)?
MK-677 (Ibutamoren) is the only orally bioavailable GHSR-1a (ghrelin receptor) agonist with documented clinical data. Not a peptide — a non-peptide spiropiperidine with ~24-hour half-life enabling once-daily oral dosing. Produces sustained GH pulse amplification and IGF-1 elevation without injection.
Multiple Phase 2 trials: MK-677 25mg daily for 2 years in elderly subjects produced significant increases in lean body mass, bone density, and IGF-1 levels. Frasca et al. trial in hip fracture patients. Recognised as the most clinically validated GH secretagogue aside from GHRH analogs.
