8:00 am Check-In & Coffee
Begin the final day of the conference by taking the opportunity to engage with people you missed on Day One and deepen initial discussions
8:50 am Chair’s Opening Remarks
Developing Novel Therapeutics to Combat Muscle Loss & Enhance Patient Quality of Life
9:00 am Unlocking Superior Obesity Outcomes by Preserving Muscle While Maximizing Fat Loss
- Exploring GLP-1 and muscle-expressing factor combinations that build muscle alongside fat loss to address GLP-1 induced sarcopenia
- Reviewing promising combination therapy and development innovations to maintain or improve lean mass during obesity treatments
- Determine the right development focus by evaluating whether muscle mass, muscle function, or overall muscle efficacy will be the most meaningful differentiator for future obesity therapies and clinical outcomes
9:30 am Targeting B2-Receptors to Develop Obesity Therapeutics That Preserve Muscle Mass
- Stimulating the B2 adrenergic receptor to combat obesity
- Leveraging Atrogi’s GPCR discovery platform to discovery precise targets to manage metabolism
- Highlighting ATR-339 clinical data to demonstrate durable, muscle maintaining therapeutics
10:00 am Morning Break & Networking
Enjoy morning refreshments, and plan your conversations for the final day of the event
Understanding Obesity Pathology to Expand Therapies that Combat Obesity & Its Comorbidities
11:00 am Case Study & Discussion: Connecting Obesity Science & Meaningful Outcomes to Strengthen Development Strategies & Build Patient Confidence
- Exploring the role of serotonin signalling in regulating appetite, energy balance, insulin sensitivity, and glucose control through central and peripheral pathways
- Delving into the therapeutic potential of selective 5-HT2C receptor modulation to improve glycaemic outcomes and metabolic health beyond weight loss alone
- Unpacking obesity science, including underlying drivers, the neurology of feeding behaviours, genetic predisposition and disrupted metabolic regulation to reframe obesity treatments to target root causes
- Examining the redefinition of obesity based on excess adiposity plus adiposityderived comorbidities rather than BMI alone to develop therapies that align with evolving standards of success
- Exploring reliable and accurate measurements of success including metabolic and cardiovascular health markers, patient reported outcomes, comorbidity resolution and body composition measurements to truly demonstrate healthy weight loss
12:00 pm Lunch Break & Networking
Enjoy lunch as you build upon the relationships from the summit so far
Advancing Selective & Long-Acting Therapies to Improve Patient Adherence
1:00 pm Developing Amylin Selective Therapies to Tackle Tolerability in Obesity Drug Development
- Developing a drug that is purely selective for amylin receptors, does it matter?
- Exploring if they maintain pharmacologic effects
- Discussing the future for selective am
1:30 pm Single-Dose xRNA Enables Weeks of Sustained Incretin Therapy
- Engineering xRNA to give weeks of GLP-1 pharmacology from one injection
- Optimising RNA chemistry to increase expression potency and durability beyond conventional mRNA
- Flattening peak-and-trough exposure to improve tolerability and adherence
2:00 pm Afternoon Break
Network with your key contacts from across the meeting and exchange details to build relationships beyond the event
2:30 pm Unlocking the Potential of Ketosis to Enhance Effective, Maintainable Weight Loss
- Optimising external ketones for therapeutic use to enhance energy expenditure
- Delivering high-quality weight loss with oral ketone therapy SNV-101 by reducing fat mass while combating comorbidity markers and preserving lean muscle
- Exploring the use of ketone therapeutics in combination with GLP-1 therapeutics to improve long-term durability and minimize post GLP-1 weight regain
3:00 pm Panel Discussion: Evaluating Opportunities to Improve Long-Term Weight Loss Management
- Decreasing BMI and pricing barriers to patient access of obesity and weight loss medication
- Exploring therapeutic and non-therapeutic methods to ensure weight maintenance beyond initial therapeutic application
3:45 pm Integrating L Cell Sensing & Neural Afferent Signalling to Enable Long- Term Metabolic Stability
- Leveraging the small intestine as synchronisation hub to trigger neuroendocrine neuronal signals that shape behaviour energy expenditure and metabolism
- Adapting behaviour and metabolism to secure long-term metabolic maintenance
- Exploring the intelligence system of L cells as key sensors and energetic and neural afferent effectors
