Olanzapine-induced weight gain and adiposity in rats and nonhuman primates mitigated by samidorphan
“SAM was also able to mitigate OLZ-induced metabolic dysfunction, including weight gain and adiposity, in rats and nonhuman primates (NHP), however it did not prevent OLZ-induced liver insulin resistance in rats or have any effects on HbA1c levels or glucose tolerance.”

Reviewer's view of the efficacy data
FDA: overall pharmacodynamic effect of olanzapine, samidorphan and major metabolites at clinical concentrations unclear
“The overall pharmacodynamic effect of the combination of OLZ, SAM, and all major metabolites at clinically relevant concentrations is unclear.”
