Thoughts on Ph2 ZUPREME-1 Data: Can Petrelintide Still Compete?
Here is a brief preview of this blast: Recently, Zealand announced topline 42-week results from the Ph2 ZUPREME-1 study, which evaluated petrelintide (QW SC amylin analog) in adults with obesity or overweight (previous FENIX insight). Following the announcement, Zealand’s share price declined -36%, reflecting investor disappointment in petrelintide’s weight loss efficacy (up to -10.7%), despite an otherwise favorable tolerability profile. Below, FENIX provides a thoughts-on analysis of the topline ZUPREME-1 data, including a deep-dive on how petrelintide’s benefit/risk profile compares to other amylin analogs in development, as well as why amylin may fall short of Zealand’s expectations for it becoming the next foundational AOM.
