Drug Discovery
Pre-Clinical
Phase 1
GUB-UCN2
(urocortin-2 analog)
Obesity
Gubra

Background

With current weight loss treatments, 20–40% of body weight reduction comes from unwanted loss of lean mass (muscles, bones, internal organs). Gubra’s UCN2 program is developed for high quality weight loss. In preclinical models UCN2 prevented incretin induced lean mass loos while enhancing fat mass reduction.

Internal

Compound

Urocortin-2 analogue and a potent and highly selective Corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 2 (CRHR2) agonist that has been designed for weekly dosing.

GLP-1 combo
Obesity
Gubra

Background

Injectable peptide-based GLP-1 receptor (GLP1R) agonists have shown remarkable therapeutic success in the treatment of type2 diabetes and obesity, as a monotherapy or in combinations.

Obesity
Gubra

Background

Despite significant advancements with approved anti-obesity medications, a substantial medical need persists. Current therapies, while effective for many, often fall short in delivering sustained, long-term and muscle preserving weight loss.

ABBV-295
(amylin analog)
Obesity
AbbVie

Background

AbbVie and Gubra announced a license agreement to develop an amylin analog for the treatment of obesity. The agreement enables the incorporation of GUB014295, an amylin analogue discovered and developed by Gubra, into AbbVie's global infrastructure (ABBV-295). Amylin is a naturally occurring hormone secreted by pancreatic beta cells that plays a crucial role in energy balance and glucose homeostasis. As a satiety signal, it activates pathways in the brain to suppress appetite and reduce food intake.

Partner

Compound

A long-acting amylin analog.

Clinical

The Phase 1 clinical trial is a two-part, single center, double-blind (within cohorts), randomized, placebo-controlled, single (Part 1) and multiple (Part 2) ascending subcutaneous dose study of GUB014295. Part 1 has been completed; Part 2 is ongoing. More information on this trial can be found at https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ (NCT: 06144684).

Boehringer Ingelheim

Background

BI 1820237, which is fully outlicensed to Boehringer Ingelheim, is a long-acting neuropeptide Y receptor type 2 (NPY2R) agonist. In October 2024, Boehringer Ingelheim discontinued its development for obesity. Potential opportunities outside the obesity indication are now being explored by Boehringer Ingelheim.

BI3034701
(triple GLP-1/GIP/NPY2 agonist)
Obesity
Boehringer Ingelheim

Background

BI 3034701 is an investigational, potential first in class triple GLP 1, GIP and NPY2 receptor agonist peptide being developed for the treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases, based on Gubra discovered technology.

Partner

Compound

A long-acting triple agonist peptide with a potential to become a next-generation and first-in-class obesity treatment.

Clinical

BI 3034701 has completed a Phase 1, first in human, randomized, placebo controlled trial assessing safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy participants and individuals with overweight or obesity. Following completion of Phase 1, Boehringer Ingelheim plans to initiate Phase 2 clinical development in mid 2026 to further evaluate the compound’s potential. Under the collaboration and license agreement, Boehringer Ingelheim is responsible for global clinical development and commercialization.

Obesity
Boehringer Ingelheim

Background

Further building on their history of successful partnership, Gubra and Boehringer Ingelheim have entered a collaboration taking a new approach to discover novel peptides to deliver innovative treatments with the aim of improving health outcomes for people living with obesity.

AMX0318
(GLP-1R antagonist)
PBH & Other Rare Diseases
Amylyx

Background

AMX0318, a novel, long-acting GLP-1 receptor antagonist, was selected as a development candidate for post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) and other rare diseases by Amylyx and was identified through a research collaboration with Gubra. AMX0318 has completed extensive preclinical evaluation, including stability, solubility, potency, in vivo pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and in vivo tolerability studies. Amylyx expects the program to advance into IND-enabling studies later this year with an IND targeted for 2027, pending successful completion of IND enabling studies.
