Novo Nordisk announced positive mid-stage trial results for its experimental diabetes and weight-loss drug amycretin, showing up to 14.5% weight loss and significant blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes over 36 weeks.
The once-weekly injection and once-daily oral forms outperformed placebo, with 89.1% of injection patients and 77.6% of oral patients achieving target HbA1c levels.
