iBio Highlights Monkey Data: IBIO-610 Plus Semaglutide Weight Loss Mostly Fat
iBio presented preclinical data from an eight-week obese non-human primate study of IBIO-610, a potential first-in-class Activin E antibody, at the EASD Annual Meeting on October 1, 2026. The company reported that fat made up 93% of weight lost with IBIO-610 plus semaglutide, versus 77% with semaglutide alone, and it plans to begin first-in-human studies in the first half of 2027. The data are early animal results, and the filing notes they may not be replicated in humans.
Key points
- Lean mass was 6% of weight lost with IBIO-610 plus semaglutide, versus 22% with semaglutide alone (eight-week study, n=6 per group)
- At week 8, fat accounted for 93% of weight lost with IBIO-610 plus semaglutide, versus 77% with semaglutide alone
- IBIO-610 reduced serum levels of active Activin E by 97% at week 8 after a single intravenous dose, and had a 33.2-day half-life in NHPs
- First-in-human studies are planned to begin in the first half of 2027
