LLY Dual Agonist Advances to Ph3; Q2 ’18 Earnings Update
Here is a brief preview of this blast: Lilly hosted its Q2 '18 earnings call and provided updates on its marketed and pipeline products. Lilly announced three major pipeline updates including advancement of their QW GIP/GLP-1 agonist to Ph3 after meeting a “high bar” in Ph2 trials, filing of nasal glucagon, and discontinuation of their Ph1 GPR142 agonist. Of further interest, President of Lilly Diabetes, Enrique Conterno, indicated the median follow-up for REWIND would be ~5 years (providing an additional ~1 year for Kaplan-Meier curve separation compared to the 3.8-year median follow-up for LEADER).
