In December 2022, Amgen announced new Phase I data from AMG 133. This first-in-human study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of AMG 133 in people with obesity and without diabetes (NCT04478708). The MAD cohorts showed mean percent changes in body weight (BW), ranging from -7.2% at the lowest dose (140mg Q4W), to -14.5% at the highest dose (420mg Q4W) by day 85. A substantial degree of weight loss was maintained beyond the treatment period, which will be shared as part of the oral presentation. Most treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild and transient. The majority of the TEAEs were GI-related, with the most common being nausea and vomiting, most events resolved within 48 hours.
In December 2022, Poolbeg Pharma, a clinical-stage infectious disease company, acquired the exclusive license from InsuCaps to use its proprietary microencapsulation and nanoencapsulation oral delivery technologies in metabolic syndrome-related diseases, including obesity, pre-diabetes, and diabetes.
In November 2022, Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced that Great Britain's Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has expanded the marketing authorization for IMCIVREE® (setmelanotide) to include the treatment of obesity and control of hunger associated with genetically confirmed Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) in adult and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older.
In November 2022, Reviva Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. announced the issuance of a patent covering the composition of matter for RP1208 in Canada, adding to its existing protection in key markets around the world. The Canadian patent covers the compositions of novel phenylcycloalkylmethylamine derivatives and the use of the compositions for the treatment of obesity, related co-morbid conditions, and depression and related co-morbid conditions.
In October 2022, Eli Lilly and Company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had granted Fast Track designation for the investigation of tirzepatide for the treatment of adults with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities.
In September 2022, Rivus Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced the completion of a USD 132 million Series B financing led by RA Capital Management with participation from Bain Capital Life Sciences, BB Biotech AG, and existing investors Longitude Capital, Medicxi, and RxCapital. This financing will further support the clinical advancement of lead candidate HU6, a first-in-class Controlled Metabolic Accelerator (CMA) designed to treat cardio-metabolic disease by addressing obesity, a primary driver of disease.
In June 2022, LG Chem's new drug for treating genetic obesity received additional ODD (Orphan Drug Designation) from the US FDA. LG Chem announced on the 16th that the FDA recently granted ODD to 'LB54640' for the treatment of 'POMC (Proopiomelanocortin) deficiency.'
In April 2022, Saniona announced that it paused the Phase IIb clinical trials testing Tesomet for people with Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS) and hypothalamic obesity (HO). The decision "is not related to the safety or efficacy of Tesomet and is entirely due to funding limitations. The company also announced a reprioritization and restructuring effort to immediately reduce operating expenses while maximizing cash resources.

Obesity Overview

Obesity is a chronic disease that causes abnormal or excessive fat accumulation or adipose tissue in the body, posing a health risk. It is caused by an imbalance between calories consumed and calories burned. The factors responsible for the causes of obesity include heredity, a sedentary lifestyle, excessive fat, sugar consumption (energy-dense meals), certain medications, and endocrine issues. Changes in the environment or society, as well as in behavior and culture, all directly impact.

Obesity symptoms go beyond an increase in body fat. It can cause skin issues, shortness of breath, sleeping difficulties, and other symptoms. Some obesity symptoms have even been linked to an increased risk of developing certain diseases and disorders. In some cases, these can be life-threatening or even fatal.
