Forward guidance

The company is seeking agreement from the Agency on the Phase 3 trial design and study endpoints that highlight the differentiation of pemvidutide in the treatment of obesity, including its ability to reduce serum lipids and liver fat content (LFC) and its class-leading preservation of lean mass among incretin agents.

Tailwinds

  • Subjects receiving pemvidutide achieved weight loss of up to 15.6% with weight loss continuing at the end of treatment.
  • Class-leading lean mass preservation among incretin agents with only 21.9% of weight loss attributable to lean mass and 78.1% attributable to fat.
  • Treatment with pemvidutide also resulted in robust reductions of triglycerides (55.8%), total cholesterol (20.0%) and LDL cholesterol (17.4%) in subjects with elevated baseline lipids on the 2.4mg dose.
  • Data from the Phase 1 first-in-human trial of pemvidutide demonstrated robust reductions in pro-inflammatory lipids associated with atherogenesis and cardiovascular risk.
  • Higher proportions of subjects receiving pemvidutide achieved FibroScan-aspartate aminotransferase (FAST) score, MRI-PDFF and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) responses than subjects receiving placebo

Headwinds

  • The IMPACT trial expects to enroll approximately 190 subjects with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D), randomized to receive 1.2mg or 1.8mg of pemvidutide or placebo.
  • Primary efficacy measures are MASH resolution or fibrosis improvement at Week 24.
  • The biopsy readout at Week 24 represents the earliest time point of any incretin-based MASH clinical trial.
  • End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expected to take place in late Q3 2024
  • The Company is seeking agreement from the Agency on the Phase 3 trial design and study endpoints that highlight the differentiation of pemvidutide in the treatment of obesity
