The record

Which peptides have no registered human trial?

Of the 68 compounds tracked here, 25 have no trial registered on ClinicalTrials.gov naming them as an intervention.

The 25, named

No registered human study names 5-Amino-1MQ, Acetyl octapeptide-3, Adipotide, AOD-9604, Dihexa, DSIP, Epithalon, Follistatin 344, FOXO4-DRI, GHRP-2, GHRP-6, Hexarelin, Humanin, IGF-1 DES, IGF-1 LR3, KPV, MGF, Noopept, Palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, Pinealon, Selank, Semax, Sermorelin, SLU-PP-332 and Thymalin as an intervention.

One entry needs a note. Sermorelin has an FDA-approved product (GEREF) and still appears here: it was approved in 1990, before trial registration was mandatory, so the registry is empty for a reason that has nothing to do with how well it was studied. It is the only compound on this list in that position.

That is a fact about the public record, and it is not the same as proof that any of these does nothing. It means there is no trial evidence to read — so anyone telling you a compound on this list works should be asked for the registration number. Several have laboratory or animal literature; a paper count appears beside each below, and a paper is not a trial.

A study counts only when the compound is named as an intervention in it; the registry search is fuzzy, so every match is re-checked. A search for MGF returned 102 studies of which none administered MGF. Collected 2026-08-02 from ClinicalTrials.gov. How this is put together.
