ALT-801 (pemvidutide) is a novel, investigational, peptide-based GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist in development for the treatment of obesity and NASH. Activation of the GLP-1 and glucagon receptors is believed to mimic the complementary effects of diet and exercise on weight loss.
BYM338 (bimagrumab) is a fully human IgG1/lamda mAb with picomolar affinity for both activin type II receptors A and B that blocks binding of ligands, including myostatin and activins. It decreases body fat at the same time increases muscle mass.
ACM-001.1 (S-pindolol benzoate) targets multiple pathways that drive cachexia and has generated promising proof of concept Phase 2a clinical data in cachexia patients.
ALT-801 (pemvidutide), is a novel, investigational, peptide-based GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist in development for the treatment of obesity and NASH.
Imcivree (setmelanotide), has shown significant potential to transform the care of individuals living with the onset of extreme weight gain from hypothalamic obesity.
Setmelanotide, an MC4R agonist marketed as IMCIVREE®, previously received Breakthrough Designation while being developed for Bardet-Biedl syndrome and proopiomelanocortin (POMC), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) and leptin receptor (LEPR) deficiencies.
ALT-801 (pemvidutide) is a GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist that is being developed for the treatment of obesity and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
APH-012 is a glucose formulation designed to be released at discrete parts of the small intestine to restore endogenous nutrient-sensing signaling pathways and stimulate the release of the broad spectrum of enteric hormones that control multiple homeostatic functions.
XW003 is a novel, biased long-lasting GLP-1 peptide analogue optimized for improved biological activity and once weekly dosing. GLP-1 analogs are effective tools in managing type 2 diabetes, obesity, and have demonstrated clinical potential as a treatment for NASH.
Imcivree (setmelanotide) is a MC4R agonist. The MC4R is part of the key biological pathway that regulates hunger, caloric intake and energy expenditure. Variants in genes may impair the function of the MC4R pathway, potentially leading to hyperphagia and obesity.
