Shares of Zealand Pharma fell up to 26% following new data showing high dropout rates due to gastrointestinal side effects in its experimental weight-loss drug survodutide. Despite meeting key study targets, 19% of patients discontinued treatment compared to 2.9% on placebo, raising doubts about the drug's commercial viability. Analysts warn that side effects like vomiting could limit its market potential against competitors. The stock has already declined nearly 50% this year amid ongoing concerns about the company's obesity drug pipeline.
