Barclays 28th Annual Global Healthcare Conference summary

11 Mar, 2026

Platform technology and clinical pipeline

  • Precision endocrine peptides (PEPs) platform enables extended and controlled peptide drug exposure for endocrine and metabolic diseases.

  • Cleared a key regulatory milestone with FDA for hypoparathyroidism, advancing to phase III in Q3 with a once-weekly PTH replacement therapy.

  • Obesity portfolio includes MBX 4291 (GLP-1/GIP co-agonist prodrug) targeting once-monthly dosing and improved tolerability, with a 12-week multiple ascending dose readout in Q4.

  • Additional obesity candidates include single and triple agonists, with candidate selection and development milestones in Q2 and Q3.

  • Cash runway supports operations into 2029, providing flexibility for advancing programs.

Hypoparathyroidism program and phase III design

  • Phase III will be a six-month, placebo-controlled study with a primary composite responder endpoint and a key secondary endpoint of urine calcium normalization.

  • Open-label extension will follow for 78 weeks, with FDA agreement on study design and endpoints.

  • Differentiation from competitors centers on pre-specified urine calcium endpoint, which could support label claims.

  • Once-weekly dosing addresses significant patient burden and unmet need, with strong support from patients and endocrinologists.

  • Market research indicates 80% of endocrinologists would switch patients from daily to weekly therapy if available.

Phase II data and upcoming milestones

  • Avail phase II showed 63% response at 12 weeks and 79% at six months, with placebo rates comparable to competitors.

  • Phase III will stratify for endogenous PTH to ensure balanced arms.

  • One-year follow-up data from Avail phase II to be presented in Q2, including retention, response, biomarkers, urine calcium, bone mineral density, safety, and tolerability.

  • Expectation is BMD will decrease but remain within normal range for the population.
