HANGZHOU, China I September 30, 2024 I Zhejiang Doer Biologics Co., Ltd. (“Doer Bio”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative biotherapeutics for metabolic diseases and cancers, today announces that DR10624, its first-in-class (FIC), tri-specific agonist targeting Fibroblast growth factor 21 receptor (FGF21R), Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R), and Glucagon receptor (GCGR) has completed the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2 study of DR10624 for the treatment of severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG).
The Phase 2 study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three dose levels of DR10624 in adult SHTG patients, who have mean fasting triglycerides of greater than or equal to 5.65 mmol/L (500 mg/dL) at screening. A total of 72 participants will be enrolled in the study.
“DR10624 is a first-in-class long-acting tri-agonist targeting FGF21R, GLP-1R, and glucagon receptor (GCGR). Developed using Doer Bio’s proprietary MultipleBody® platform technology, DR10624 was engineered to exhibit balanced activity for metabolic diseases. In non-clinical studies, DR10624 has demonstrated extraordinary potency in reducing body weight, lowering triglycerides, normalizing blood lipids, and improving liver function.” said Yanshan Huang, Ph.D., founder and Chief Executive Officer of Doer Bio.
“We’re excited to announce the dosing of first patient in our Phase 2 study of DR10624 for the treatment of severe hypertriglyceridemia. Patients with SHTG, particularly those with uncontrolled hypertriglyceridemia, face a heightened risk of developing acute pancreatitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). This Phase 2 study is designed to identify the optimal dose for pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials. We are eager to advance DR10624 as a potential treatment for patients struggling with SHTG”. commented Yongliang Fang, Ph.D., Chief Operating Officer of Doer Bio.
More information about the Phase 2 clinical trial is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06555640)
