Calories to satiation-A new predictor of anti-obesity therapy outcome?
Cell Metab · 2025
Last updated 2026-05-28Researchers created a model to predict how many calories a person can eat before feeling full, using genetic and body measurements. In a study, this model helped estimate weight loss outcomes for people taking two obesity drugs: phentermine-topiramate and liraglutide.

Abstract
Despite advances in elucidating obesity pathophysiology, predicting individual responses to weight loss interventions remains challenging. Cifuentes et al. developed a predictive model integrating genetic risk scores and anthropometric parameters to estimate caloric intake to satiation, demonstrating potential in forecasting weight loss trajectories with phentermine-topiramate and liraglutide therapies.
