Gubra A/S Announces Initiation Of Ambitious Phase 1/2a Clinical Trial Of Lead Asset GUB-UCN2 In Obesity Gubra A/S announced the initiation of the first-in-human trial of GUB-UCN2, the company’s next mega program, with the first participant completing the first visit. The Phase 1/2a clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of GUB-UCN2, with a particular focus on muscle volume and muscle function. The Phase 1/2a trial will enroll a total of approximately 188 healthy participants and individuals living with obesity, with and without related comorbidities. The trial consists of three parts: a single ascending dose (SAD) component, a multiple ascending dose (MAD) component, and a multiple dose (MD) component with a treatment duration of up to 16 weeks. The trial will investigate GUB-UCN2 as both a standalone therapy and in combination with incretin-based therapy for obesity. Data from the trial are expected to be released on a sequential basis, with initial data from the SAD study in healthy volunteers, including safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic assessments, expected in the first half of 2027. The trial is strategically designed to maximize asset value by generating multidimensional clinical data early in development and preparing the regulatory path for further development. GUB-UCN2 has delivered strong and comprehensive preclinical data. Results have shown that GUB-UCN2 substantially and selectively lowers fat mass and increases muscle mass when administered alone and in combination with incretin-based therapy. In combination with a GLP-1 receptor agonist, GUB-UCN2 completely prevented the lean mass loss typically seen with GLP-1 receptor agonist-based therapies and enhanced fat mass reduction. GUB-UCN2 also reversed lean mass loss after prior GLP-1 exposure, positioning it as both a protective and restorative therapy in treatment combination regimens. Beyond body composition, UCN2 has delivered improvements of cardiac and renal function in preclinical models. UCN2 (Urocortin 2), is a 38 amino acid neuropeptide that selectively binds to the corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 2 (CRHR2). Activation of CRHR2 by UCN2 induces a reprogramming of skeletal muscle toward an exercise-like phenotype, leading to a favorable shift in body composition characterized by increased muscle mass and reduced fat mass. Mechanistically, UCN2 acts directly on CRHR2 receptors expressed in skeletal muscle, where it stimulates muscle growth and enhances performance. This effect is mediated in part through increased protein synthesis within muscle tissue. In parallel, UCN2 reduces intramuscular fat accumulation, contributing to improved muscle quality and metabolic efficiency. Additionally, UCN2 enhances insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle, further supporting metabolic health and glucose homeostasis. Anuncio • Jun 16

Gubra A/S Announces Updates to Its Pipeline Gubra A/S announced updates to its R&D pipeline of internal and partnered projects. Most notably is the addition of a new CNS (orexin) peptide drug discovery project, now ready for partnering. The aim of the project is to develop an efficacious and safe peptide-based treatment for narcolepsy type 1. Gubra has developed a broad series of orexin peptides with very promising effects in animal models of narcolepsy which spurred the decision to advance the project into their R&D pipeline. The orexin peptide drug discovery project, that gains access to brain orexin receptors after a subcutaneous injection, has grown out of Gubra’s own streaMLine platform for rapid peptide drug discovery. Orexin is a hormone that helps regulate sleep-wake cycles. Certain sleeping disorders, such as narcolepsy type 1 (narcolepsy with cataplexy), are debilitating diseases with severe consequences for the quality of life of patients and their relatives. They are believed to be caused by the loss of a group of neurons deep in the brain producing orexin peptides. Narcolepsy type 1 is a rare chronic neurological disorder with a prevalence of 25-50 per 100,000. Anuncio • May 19
