(Nasdaq: SKYE) (“Skye”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on unlocking new therapeutic pathways for metabolic health, today announced preliminary data from a diet-induced obesity (DIO) model in mice. Skye’s CB1-inhibiting antibody, nimacimab, achieved significant dose-dependent weight loss of up to 16% compared to vehicle, highlighting a novel peripherally-driven mechanism for inducing weight loss and other metabolic benefits.\nSkye developed a DIO model using a transgenic mouse expressing the human CB1 receptor (hCB1R). After establishing this newly-developed model, the goal of this initial study was to assess the effects of its peripherally-targeting CB1 inhibitor on weight loss and other metabolic parameters. Five groups of mice were treated for 35 days with vehicle, 10 nmol/kg semaglutide, or nimacimab at 7.5 mg/kg, 24 mg/kg or 75 mg/kg, respectively. Key initial findings include:\n\nDose-dependent weight loss with nimacimab of 4.5%, 11.4% and 16.0% compared to vehicle\nSignificant fat mass loss with lean mass preservation\nDose-dependent improvement in glucose tolerance.\n\nChris Twitty, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Skye, commented, “This is the first-ever reported assessment of an antibody-based peripherally-restricted CB1 inhibitor using a DIO model. These results are preliminary and we continue to refine this model, however, the data are very encouraging and provide the first direct evidence supporting our hypothesis that peripheral CB1 inhibition is the primary driver of weight loss whereas central CB1 inhibition contributes minimally to efficacy yet promotes neuropsychiatric adverse events. With this DIO model developed, we are continuing to assess different parameters and look forward to presenting further preclinical data in the future.”\nPuneet Arora, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Skye, said, “It is evident from the clinical studies of small molecule CB1 inhibitors that even modest exposure to the brain can cause concerning neuropsychiatric adverse events. We believe that the promising data from these experiments combined with our Phase 1 data, which showed no significant neuropsychiatric adverse events, places nimacimab as the most promising candidate to realize the therapeutic potential of CB1 inhibition. We believe the mechanism of action of nimacimab is complementary to that of incretin mimetics such as GLP-1 receptor agonists. In addition, nimacimab offers the potential of a safe and well-tolerated alternative to the currently approved weight loss drugs.”\nAdditional data will be presented during ObesityWeek and available as a recorded presentation on the Company’s website under Investor Relations.\nAbout Skye Bioscience \nSkye is focused on unlocking new therapeutic pathways for metabolic health through the development of next-generation molecules that modulate G-protein-coupled receptors. Skye's strategy leverages biologic targets with substantial human proof of mechanism for the development of first-in-class therapeutics with clinical and commercial differentiation. Skye is conducting a Phase 2 clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT06577090) in obesity for nimacimab, a negative allosteric modulating antibody that peripherally inhibits CB1. This study is also assessing the combination of nimacimab and a GLP-1R agonist (Wegovy®). For more information, please visit: www.skyebioscience.com.
