    Roche Reports 15.5% Weight Loss in Phase II Trial for Enicepatide

    Question

    Roche Reports 15.5% Weight Loss in Phase II Trial for Enicepatide

    Direct answer

    Roche published Phase II clinical trial results evaluating enicepatide in type 2 diabetes patients. The once-weekly dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist produced dose-dependent reductions in HbA1c of up to 2.65% and average body weight loss of 15.5% at the 24 mg dose level. The drug showed favorable tolerability with low discontinuation rates, validating Roche's metabolic pipeline expansion and intensifying pipeline competition against incumbent treatments from Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk. — bullish pressure on RHHBY.
