Side effects, contraindications and regulatory status

Reported side effects

  • Two ascending-dose trials in healthy adults aged 21-61 given CJC-1295 (with DAC) subcutaneously (Teichman 2006): no serious adverse reactions were reported; the authors report it was safe and relatively well tolerated, particularly at 30 or 60 mcg/kg.[2] Human trial
  • FDA safety-risk page (nominated-but-withdrawn table, current 2026-04-22): FDA identified serious adverse events associated with CJC-1295, including increased heart rate and systemic vasodilatory reaction; clinical data are limited. The entry does not say which form (with or without DAC).[1] Regulator or expert-panel statement

Regulatory status

Listed as CJC-1295 (no with/without DAC distinction) in the 'nominated but withdrawn' table of the FDA bulk-substance safety-risk page (current 2026-04-22); no US label. Checked 2026-10-20.[1] Source
