(NASDAQ: GPCR), a clinical-stage global biopharmaceutical company developing novel oral small molecule therapeutics for metabolic diseases, with a focus on obesity, today announced a publication in Nature Medicine detailing results from the Phase 2b ACCESS clinical trial of aleniglipron for the treatment of people living with obesity and/or overweight with at least one weight related co-morbidity. The Nature Medicine publication, titled, "Oral small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist aleniglipron in people with overweight or obesity: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2b trial," can be accessed online at: <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=zRAYiPJmkpWI7IBPIH4EPRL5Mk6qPAyBRyLpG2Qz4SSzeutZlqN7Dajp2X2WS7KVd0XTej997Cm8778YkVRU3ef6CtENuEJZ9Qhwut1sZ_4fAJEv8kYuRjeEASoFsbL799ukfY7d1DrsgwPudC9ueYefL7HR1ywS5UkFzDTZz7U=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-026-04476-6</a>. The publication was released concurrent with an oral presentation during the American Diabetes Association’s 86th Scientific Sessions by lead author, Julio Rosenstock, MD, Chair of the aleniglipron program Steering Committee and Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Center. The data highlights the efficacy from three maintenance dose levels in the core Phase 2b ACCESS study, as well as a predefined interim analysis of the open-label extension (OLE) safety study that demonstrated the durability of weight loss beyond 36 weeks, and improved tolerability from a lower 2.5 mg starting dose. The data from these studies provide support for the study design of the upcoming Phase 3 program which is expected to initiate in the third quarter of 2026. “The data published today provide important new details around the previously reported reductions in body weight in patients dosed with aleniglipron. Interestingly, participants continued to lose weight after a median follow up of 20 weeks in the open label extension phase of the study after finalizing the 36 weeks in the double-blind treatment period, with no apparent weight loss plateau. This is an important distinction for a once-daily oral, non-peptide GLP-1 receptor agonist to potentially become an additional treatment option for patients,” stated Dr. Rosenstock, MD, Chair of the Steering Committee. “The study closely monitored the participant experience and additional impacts across key measures of tolerability, including the ability to restart or increase dosing titration after interruption without substantial increase in emesis events, which may be helpful for clinicians to gain a clinical perspective of treatment tolerance.” Aleniglipron is an oral, small-molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1-RA) in development for the treatment of obesity. As previously reported, at Week 36, each of the three doses in the ACCESS study achieved statistical significance on the primary endpoint and all key secondary endpoints. Other cardiovascular risk factors showed improvement with aleniglipron, such as systolic and diastolic blood pressure, hsCRP, waist circumference and HbA1c, which could positively contribute to the known cardiovascular benefits of approved GLP-1s. The interim analysis from the OLE study showed that patients continued to lose weight after a median follow up of 20 weeks, with weight loss of 13.3%, 16.2%, and 15.3% in the participants coming from 45 mg, 90 mg, and 120 mg aleniglipron arms from the double-blind treatment period, respectively. As seen in prior studies, adverse events (AEs) in the patients treated with aleniglipron are similar to those seen in the GLP-1 class of medicines. Gastrointestinal (GI) events were generally mild to moderate and decreased in frequency over time and most patient discontinuations occurred during the initial titrations in dose. There was no apparent dose-response relationship for the most common GI AEs across all aleniglipron treatment arms, and treatment discontinuations due to any treatment related adverse event (TEAE) were limited. The heat maps of dose levels overlaid with vomiting events add clarity to interpretation of the AE profile and add valuable insights into the participant experience on aleniglipron. Upon examination of each participant’s dosing across the study, it becomes clear that although some participants required dose interruptions or reductions, when the dose was re-initiated or up-titrated again, vomiting rarely recurred. This suggests that participants on aleniglipron may successfully restart treatment or continue to increase dosing after an interruption. This could potentially increase the likelihood to remain on treatment for extended periods of time, which is essential for a clinically meaningful treatment of obesity. “We are pleased to have the ACCESS study data published in Nature Medicine to provide additional details about the important outcomes from this trial. We are on track to initiate our Phase 3 program of aleniglipron in the third quarter of 2026 with a starting dose of 2.5 mg and the intent to evaluate multiple doses based on this data and our End of Phase 2 meeting with the FDA,” said Blai Coll, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of Structure Therapeutics. “We are confident in the potential for once-daily oral aleniglipron to transform the treatment of obesity for patients around the world.” In addition, Structure Therapeutics will have multiple other presentations related to its obesity pipeline, including amylin and combination data, at the ADA 86th Scientific Sessions.
