SAN FRANCISCO and SUZHOU, China, May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Innovent Biologics, Inc. (“Innovent”) (HKEX: 01801), a world-class biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and commercializes high quality medicines for the treatment of oncology, cardiovascular and metabolic, autoimmune, ophthalmology and other major diseases, announces that it will present multiple clinical and preclinical data from mazdutide and its next‑generation obesity and metabolic pipeline at the 2026 American Diabetes Association’s® (ADA) Scientific Sessions, to be held in New Orleans, U.S. from June 5–8, 2026.
Dr. Lei Qian, Chief R&D Officer (General Biomedicine) of Innovent, stated, “At this year’s ADA Scientific Sessions, we are pleased to present a series of new data in obesity and metabolic diseases, which is an important step in establishing Innovent as an emerging leader and innovator in this field. The multiple oral presentations of mazdutide, across adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity, adults with obesity and adolescents with obesity, further highlight its differentiated profile as a GCG/GLP‑1 dual receptor agonist in terms of weight loss, glycemic control and metabolic benefits. In addition, the data on IBI3032(oral daily GLP-1 small molecule), IBI3042(oral weekly GLP-1 small molecule), IBI3040(amylin) and IBI3046(INHBE siRNA) represent key milestones of our next‑generation obesity pipeline with global potential, which are designed to address unmet needs around tolerability, muscle preservation, dosing convenience, durability of weight loss and management of obesity‑related comorbidities.”
