In other recent news, iBio, Inc. has reported promising data related to its obesity treatment antibody, IBIO-600. The company released new pharmacokinetics data from a study involving non-human primates, indicating that the experimental drug may offer an extended half-life of up to 130 days in humans. This suggests a potential dosing schedule of once every three to six months. The study also showed a dose-dependent increase in lean mass and a reduction in fat mass in obese and elderly non-human primates. iBio plans to submit a regulatory submission for IBIO-600 in the first quarter of 2026. Additionally, iBio announced preclinical data for an Activin E antibody, which demonstrated significant weight and body fat loss in obese mice, either alone or in combination with the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide. These developments support the advancement of IBIO-600 and the Activin E antibody as part of iBio’s cardiometabolic and obesity pipeline. Investors should note that these findings are based on a press release from iBio and have not been independently verified.
