Ascletis initiates global Phase III trials of oral obesity drug ASC30 in 4,600 patients
  • Ascletis started a global Phase III program for its once-daily oral obesity drug candidate ASC30 following FDA Phase III clearance.
  • Two pivotal trials plan to enroll about 4,600 people with obesity or overweight across the U.S., Europe, and Canada, including cohorts with type 2 diabetes.
  • Topline Phase III results are expected in Q3 2028, supporting a planned U.S. NDA filing by end-2028 and an EU MAA in early 2029.
  • Preclinical work in non-human primates showed its oral GLP-1/GIP/amylin fixed-dose combination drove greater weight loss than a GLP-1/amylin combination.
