KBP-066A, a long-acting dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonist, induces weight loss and improves glycemic control in obese and diabetic rats

Here, we present pre-clinical data on an acylated DACRA, KBP-066A. The in vivo efficacy of KBP-066A is significantly improved compared to its non-acylated variant regarding weight loss and glycemic control in obese (HFD) and obese diabetic rats (ZDF). This compendium of pre-clinical studies highlights KBP-066A as a promising, once-weekly therapeutic agent for treating T2DM and obesity.
