TD Cowen 46th Annual Health Care Conference summary
2 Mar, 2026Key program updates and clinical milestones
Achieved strong phase II results in hypoparathyroidism and advanced an obesity candidate, MBX 4291, into the clinic in 2025.
Planning to initiate a global phase III study for canvorparotide in Q3 2026, with phase II one-year follow-up data expected in Q2.
Anticipating 12-week multiple ascending dose data for MBX 4291 in Q4, targeting improved tolerability and once-monthly dosing.
Expanding the obesity portfolio with new candidates targeting amylin and glucagon, with development candidates to be declared in Q2 and Q3.
Strong financial position with cash runway into 2029, supporting all planned clinical and pre-commercial activities.
Technology platform and differentiation
Precision Endocrine Peptides (PEP) platform enables slow, steady drug release for improved tolerability and less frequent dosing.
Platform incorporates programmable prodrug technology and fatty acylation to extend drug action and reduce dosing frequency.
Technology is clinically validated and designed by a leading peptide chemist, supporting best-in-class product candidates.
Differentiated PK profile aims to provide both monthly dosing and better tolerability, especially in obesity treatments.
Clinical data highlights and expectations
Canvorparotide phase II showed significant response rates in hypoparathyroidism, with 79% responder rate at six months and high patient retention.
One-year open-label extension data will include bone mineral density and safety, with expectations for maintained response rates.
Phase III study design will align with established endpoints and sample sizes from comparable trials, with a focus on convenience and efficacy.
MBX 4291 phase I/II studies in obesity will assess PK, tolerability, and weight loss, with a stepwise approach to dose selection and titration.
