EktaH Shows ~50% Reduction in Post-GLP-1 Weight Rebound with Novel Obesity Treatment and Reports Positive Phase I Data
— First-in-class oral mechanism triggers natural satiety hormones, addressing key limitations of GLP-1 therapies
— Phase I data demonstrate fat mass reduction, preservation of lean mass, 80% responder rate, and no serious adverse events
EktaH, a clinical-stage biotechnology company, today reported positive preliminary Phase I results and preclinical data for its lead compound NKS-3, a modified fatty acid molecule and the first oral therapy designed to address key limitations of current GLP-1 obesity treatments.
While GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide and tirzepatide have demonstrated significant weight loss, patients typically regain their baseline weight within 18 months of discontinuing treatment. In addition, current therapies are associated with loss of lean muscle mass and gastrointestinal side effects that drive discontinuation rates above 60%. Equally important, up to one third of obese individuals do not respond to GLP-1 treatments.
