A series of cardiometabolic-related news items has been observed from Novo Nordisk, Insulet, Senseonics, and MetaVia. Below, FENIX provides highlights and insights for the respective news items.
Novo Nordisk hosted its Q2 ’25 earnings call (press release; slides) and provided updates across its CVRM portfolio and near-term obesity pipeline. Recall, Novo recently promoted Mike Doustdar as its new CEO and lowered its FY 2025 sales guidance primarily due to the outsized impact of compounding on US GLP-1RA market penetration (previous FENIX insight). Importantly, Novo disclosed the discontinuation of five development programs. Below, FENIX provides highlights and insights from the Q2 ’25 earnings call, including thoughts on Novo reassessing its pipeline.
