Eli Lilly reported highly positive Phase 3 results for its obesity drug retatrutide, demonstrating significant weight loss and strengthening its competitive stance. BioMarin experienced a mixed day, with a successful Phase 3 trial for Voxzogo in hypochondroplasia paving the way for a label expansion, contrasted by a Phase 3 failure for its ENPP1 deficiency therapy. In oncology, a Phase 1 trial combining capmatinib and trametinib in NSCLC was terminated due to severe adverse events, while Kelun-Biotech's sac-TMT met its primary endpoint in a Phase 3 TNBC study. The FDA also approved a first-in-class drug for hypertension, marking a key regulatory milestone.

The obesity market continues to heat up as Eli Lilly's strong data for retatrutide raises the bar for efficacy, signaling intense competition and innovation in the metabolic space.
BioMarin's day highlights the high-risk, high-reward nature of rare disease drug development, with a significant win (Voxzogo) and a notable failure (ENPP1 therapy) reported simultaneously.
Oncology sees both progress and setbacks: positive Phase 3 readouts in challenging cancers like TNBC show continued progress, while the early termination of a combination trial in NSCLC underscores the persistent challenges of drug toxicity.
TRIAL HALT
A phase I study evaluating capmatinib plus trametinib in metastatic MET-driven NSCLC patients who progressed on prior MET inhibitors was terminated early. The study enrolled three patients, all of whom discontinued therapy due to significant treatment-related adverse events. No objective responses were observed, and further investigation of this combination is not recommended.
