New Ozempic Concentrations; Potential Autoinjector in Ph1 Study

A new Ph1 trial comparing different concentrations of semaglutide between FlexTouch, NovoPen4, and a novel injection device (DV3372) has appeared on CT.gov. In the 68-participant study, the current formulation of Ozempic (1.34mg/mL concentration delivered via FlexTouch, a.k.a. PDS290) will be compared to three more concentrated formulations of semaglutide (0.5mg/mL, 1.0mg/mL, and 2.0mg/mL). Below, FENIX analyzes the trial design, including insights regarding a potential Ozempic autoinjector and a reusable injection device, as well as the value of higher concentrations in reducing the amount of pens needed.

Thoughts on New Dexcom G6 T2DM Basal-Only Study (MOBILE)

A new trial (MOBILE) evaluating Dexcom’s G6 CGM vs. SMBG in 207 T2DM patients has been observed.
