Pfizer Acquires Metsera in $7.3B deal; Clive Meanwell Strikes Gold…Again
Here is a brief preview of this blast: Pfizer announced it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Metsera, providing the company access to Metsera’s obesity portfolio, including MET-097i (QW/QM SC GLP-1RA), MET-233i (QM SC amylin analog), MET-224o (oral GLP-1RA), and MET-097o (oral GLP-1RA). An associated call was held (view slides). The deal comes following a series of setbacks to Pfizer’s own obesity development program, including the danuglipron discontinuation earlier this year (previous FENIX insight). Below, FENIX provides an overview of the acquisition, commentary from Pfizer, and insight into how this move transforms the future obesity landscape.
