Capromorelin tartrate is a potent ghrelin receptor agonist/growth hormone secretagogue (Ki = 7 nM). In rat pituitary cells, Capromorlelin incudes growth hormone (GH) secretion with an EC50 of 3 nM. Capromorelin also increases gastric motility and has been studied recently in patients with spinal cord injuries.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
