Investor presentation summary
26 Mar, 2026Market opportunity and industry landscape
Obesity and MASH represent rapidly expanding global markets, with obesity projected to reach $80B–$130B and MASH $20B–$35B annually by 2030, driven by increasing prevalence and new treatment options.
Combination therapies are expected to become standard in MASH, increasing patient lifetime value.
Major pharmaceutical companies have committed over $15 billion in obesity/MASH licensing deals in the past year, validating the sector's growth and potential.
Pipeline and clinical progress
DA-1726, a novel GLP1R/GCGR dual agonist, demonstrated -9.1% weight loss, -3.8 inch waist reduction, -0.22 HbA1c, and -23.7% liver stiffness reduction at 48 mg in Phase 1, with mostly mild to moderate side effects.
DA-1726 is advancing to dose optimization with stepwise titration up to 64 mg; data readout expected by year-end 2026.
Vanoglipel (DA-1241), an oral GPR119 agonist, met primary endpoints in Phase 2a for presumed MASH, showing liver benefit and significant HbA1c reduction.
Vanoglipel demonstrated additive benefits in combination therapy in preclinical models and is being positioned for partnerships.
Competitive positioning and safety
DA-1726 shows potentially best-in-class efficacy for weight loss and glucose control compared to other dual agonists in early clinical data.
Adverse events for DA-1726 were primarily mild or moderate, with no discontinuations in Phase 1; competitive agents showed higher rates of nausea, vomiting, and discontinuations.
Vanoglipel was well-tolerated in clinical trials, with no treatment-related discontinuations and a favorable safety profile, including in combination therapy.
