# CJC-1295 References: The Cited Studies, Trials, and Regulatory Sources

> CJC-1295 references — the full citation register behind this site: the human PK studies, rat bioconjugate work, the discontinued trial, and the FDA and WADA sources.

The complete citation register — peer-reviewed studies, the clinical-trial registry entry, and the regulatory briefing materials behind every claim on the site.

## How to read this register

These are the CJC-1295 references cited across the site, numbered to match the inline markers on each page. The core human pharmacokinetic record is references 1 and 3; the foundational rat bioconjugate work is reference 2; the regulatory and anti-doping sources are references 6, 7, and 10. Each entry carries a DOI or a PubMed/registry link so the original can be read in full.

The register is deliberately compact. The published human evidence base for CJC-1295 is small, and this site cites it directly rather than padding the list — every numbered source below is one a reader can open and check.
