ASCLETIS-B (01672) announced that it will present multiple programs via poster presentations at the 33rd European Congress on Obesity (ECO 2026), scheduled to take place in Istanbul, Turkey, from May 12 to May 15, 2026. The presentations will include a poster on Phase I data for ASC47, a fat-targeting thyroid hormone receptor beta (THRβ) agonist designed for weight loss without muscle reduction. In combination with semaglutide, ASC47 demonstrated a relative improvement in weight reduction of up to 111.8% compared to semaglutide monotherapy in obese subjects. Additionally, a poster on preclinical data for ASC36, a once-monthly next-generation amylin receptor agonist peptide, will be presented. In non-human primate models, ASC36 showed a mean apparent half-life of 32 days, which is six times longer than that of petrelintide. In a diet-induced obesity (DIO) rat model, ASC36 exhibited a relative improvement in weight reduction of 91% compared to petrelintide.
