Wednesday, February 28, 2024

NPM-119 has previously demonstrated pharmacokinetic data exhibiting continuous and therapeutic exenatide exposure levels over a six-month duration in healthy rats.

Key Points: 
  • NPM-119 has previously demonstrated pharmacokinetic data exhibiting continuous and therapeutic exenatide exposure levels over a six-month duration in healthy rats.
  • These preclinical data provide further evidence that the weight loss potential of exenatide treatment in humans may be comparable to other GLP-1 molecules such as semaglutide assuming adequate exposure levels are achieved and maintained.
  • NPM-115 is planned to maximize exenatide’s weight loss effect in humans, pending further development and regulatory clearance, by evaluating exenatide exposure levels higher than previously explored.
  • Dr. Mendelsohn will present study results on May 17 at the TIDES USA 2024 conference in Boston.
