iBio's IBIO-610 with semaglutide preserves muscle better in obesity study, human trials start in 2027

iBio, Inc. announced positive preclinical results from an eight-week obese non-human primate study showing that their antibody drug IBIO-610, combined with semaglutide, preserved muscle mass better than semaglutide alone. The combination resulted in 93% of weight loss from fat versus 77% with semaglutide alone. IBIO-610 also demonstrated a long half-life, potentially allowing twice-yearly dosing. iBio plans to start first-in-human trials of IBIO-610 in the first half of 2027, aiming to offer a new therapeutic option for obesity and cardiometabolic diseases.

iBio's IBIO-610 drug shows promising preclinical results for muscle preservation in combination with GLP-1 therapy.
