GIP receptor antagonism
Unlike therapies that stimulate incretin-driven suppression of appetite, GIP receptor antagonism is a novel therapeutic approach that not only holds the potential to deliver significant weight loss but also improve long-term health in patients.
Preclinical studies have demonstrated substantial weight loss with an excellent tolerability profile. Additionally, the combination with GLP-1s has shown additive effects with no added gastrointestinal burden as well as improvements in cardiovascular outcomes, healthier body composition, and lean mass preservation.
By antagonising the GIP receptor in people with overweight and obesity, our approach addresses a dysregulated biological pathway that otherwise contributes to excessive fat storage, insulin resistance, and metabolic dysfunction.
