Key Takeaways from the Obesity Pipeline Report

  • In August 2025, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), announced today the FDA approval and U.S. launch of a generic version of Saxenda®1 (liraglutide injection).
  • In June 2025, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) today announced a strategic in-licensing agreement with Hansoh Pharmaceuticals Group Company Limited (“Hansoh”) to acquire exclusive clinical development and commercial rights outside of the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong and Macau for a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist currently in Phase 3 testing. This novel therapeutic candidate (HS-20094) – studied in over 1,000 patients and administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection – has demonstrated promising efficacy and safety clinical data, suggesting a potentially similar profile to the only FDA-approved GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist. A Phase 3 trial in obesity in China and Phase 2b study in diabetes are ongoing.
  • In May 2025, Novo Nordisk announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted its New Drug Application (NDA) submission for an investigational once-daily, 25 mg oral formulation of Wegovy® (semaglutide) for chronic weight management in adults living with obesity or overweight with one or more comorbid conditions and to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in adults with overweight or obesity and established cardiovascular disease.2 If approved, Wegovy® would become the first oral formulation of a GLP-1 indicated for chronic weight management.
  • In February 2025:- Carmot Therapeutics Inc.:- A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multi-Center Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Once-Weekly CT-388 Administered Subcutaneously for 48 Weeks to Participants Who Are Overweight or Obese with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
  • In February 2025:- Eli Lilly and Company:- The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide compared to tirzepatide in adults who have obesity. The study will last about 89 weeks.
  • In February 2025:- Zomagen Biosciences Ltd:- This is a study to understand if taking VTX3232 alone or in combination with semaglutide is safe in participants diagnosed with Obesity. Approximately 160 patients will take VTX3232 Dose A, Placebo, VTX3232 Dose A in combination with semaglutide, or Placebo in combination with semaglutide.
  • In February 2025:- Novo Nordisk A/S:- This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people with obesity lose weight compared to a “dummy medicine”. CagriSema is a new medicine developed by Novo Nordisk. CagriSema cannot yet be prescribed by doctors. The study has two parts: First part is called the main phase and will last for 2 years, and second part is called the extension phase and will last for 1 year. In the main phase participants will either get CagriSema or “dummy medicine”.
  • In February 2025:- Boehringer Ingelheim:– The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide (BI 456906) helps people living with overweight or obesity to lose weight. Participants are divided into 3 groups by chance, like drawing names from a hat. 2 groups get different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about one and a half years.
  • In February 2025:- Rhythm Pharmaceuticals:- A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial: Multiple Independent Sub-studies of Setmelanotide in Patients With POMC/PCSK1, LEPR, NCOA1(SRC1), or SH2B1 Gene Variants in the Melanocortin-4 Receptor Pathway.
  • DelveInsight’s Obesity pipeline report depicts a robust space with 80+ active players working to develop 100+ pipeline therapies for Obesity treatment.
  • The leading Obesity Companies such as Zealand Pharma, Sciwind Biosciences, Genexine, Sirnaomics, Sparrow Pharmaceuticals, Shionogi, Regor Pharmaceuticals, Innovent Biologics, Pfizer, NodThera Limited, Boehringer Ingelheim, Fractyl Health, TransThera, Clearmind Medicine, PegBio, Biolingus, and others.
  • Promising Obesity Therapies such as APHD-012, Bimagrumab, Semaglutide, CT-868, GLY-200, Bremelanotide, and others.

Obesity Emerging Drugs

  • Survodutide: Zealand Pharma

Survodutide (BI 456906) is a long-acting glucagon/GLP-1 receptor dual agonist for once-weekly subcutaneous administration that activates two key gut hormone receptors simultaneously and may offer better efficacy than current single-hormone receptor agonist treatments. Survodutide is targeting the treatment of obesity and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Boehringer Ingelheim is advancing survodutide into three global Phase III trials in people living with overweight or obesity.

 

  • Ecnoglutide: Sciwind Biosciences

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogs are effective therapies in managing type 2 diabetes, obesity, and have demonstrated clinical potential as a treatment for NASH. Ecnoglutide (XW003) is a novel, cAMP signaling biased, long-acting GLP-1 analogue optimized for improved biological activity, cost-effective manufacturing, and once weekly dosing. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of Obesity.

 

  • CT-868: Carmot Therapeutics

CT-868 is a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor modulator with a unique pharmacological profile optimized for improved tolerability at the GLP-1 receptor. The combined action of GLP-1 and GIP results in greater body weight loss and glucose control. CT-868 is dosed once daily to maximize efficacy and tolerability. CT-868 dual agonist candidate was discovered using the chemotype evolution technology as a peptide-small molecule hybrid compound, able to mimic the native GLP-1 hormone. In the Phase I trial, CT-868 demonstrated compelling pharmacodynamic activity across several clinical measures in overweight and obese healthy individuals a safe and generally well-tolerated profile. Carmot Therapeutics is now expanding the observations in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes to demonstrate CT-868’s effects on glycemic control, weight loss, and tolerability. Currently, the drug is in the Phase II stage of development to treat obesity.

 

  • DD01: D&D Pharmatech

DD01 is a proprietary, imbalanced dual agonist of GLP-1 and glucagon receptors with a half-life of 11 days in non-human primates. DD01 is being developed as a potential disease-modifying agent for obesity and liver fatty disease. Treatment with DD01 caused weight loss, reduced liver fat, and improved glucose tolerance in preclinical obesity, diabetes, and fatty liver models. In preclinical models of diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), DD01 could reduce weight and blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity and lipid and fat metabolism, which could ameliorate NASH. DD01 demonstrated greater efficacy in preclinical models than semaglutide, an approved GLP-1R receptor agonist; from a mechanical perspective, the effect of DD01 persisted after cessation of treatment. It is currently being evaluated in Phase I clinical trial to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of DD01 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection in overweight/obese subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
