Artelo Biosciences Announces ART27.13 Achieved Weight Loss Comparable to Semaglutide as a Monotherapy and Doubled Weight Loss in Combination with Semaglutide in a Nonclinical Model of Obesity
Artelo Biosciences announced that its once-daily, oral candidate ART27.13 achieved weight loss comparable to semaglutide as a monotherapy and doubled weight loss when combined with semaglutide in a nonclinical model of obesity. In obese mice, ART27.13 reduced body weight by approximately 20%, matching the weight loss seen with semaglutide.
Why it matters — This data highlights ART27.13's potential in the obesity space, including as an oral option and as an add-on to existing GLP-1 therapies, which could matter for ARTL's pipeline prospects.
