Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 8.01

Other Events

On June 17, 2025, the Company reported new preclinical findings from a 28-day weight loss study in obese non-human primates evaluating BMF-650, the Company’s investigational, next-generation oral small molecule Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (“GLP-1 RA”) candidate.

The weight reduction study was conducted in 15 obese cynomolgus monkeys. The study demonstrated a clear, dose-dependent reduction in daily food intake and pronounced and continuous weight loss over a four-week treatment period. BMF-650 was administered orally once daily at 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg and resulted in body weight decreasing progressively, with the respective dose groups achieving a 12% and 15% average weight reduction from baseline over 4 weeks. These effects compared favorably to published preclinical data of another leading oral GLP-1 RA candidate in development.

Study Design and Key Preclinical Findings

 

 

The study used 15 obese cynomolgus monkeys, randomized into three groups receiving vehicle, BMF-650 at 10 mg/kg, or 30 mg/kg daily for 28 days.

 

 

Daily food intake was reduced to an average of 35g/day (10 mg/kg) and 16g/day (30 mg/kg) versus 109 g/day for the vehicle control group.

 

 

BMF-650 induced rapid and durable weight loss as observed during the study, with reductions of 12% (10 mg/kg) and 15% (30 mg/kg) from baseline at Day 28.

BMF-650 Preclinical Highlights

 

 

Similar to the broader orforglipron chemotype class, designed to improve PK properties, to enhance oral bioavailability, achieve less variability and a higher plasma protein binding for a cleaner safety and tolerability profile.

 

 

Goal to achieve a more patient-friendly titration profile than current GLP-1 RAs.

 

 

Demonstrated robust glycemic control and appetite suppression in multiple preclinical models resulting in pronounced and dose-dependent weight reduction.

 

 

Generally well tolerated without safety concerns outside of the observed class effects.

Next Steps

 

 

Investigational New Drug (“IND”) submission on track for the second half of 2025.

 

 

A full set of preclinical data for BMF-650 is planned for submission and presentation at an upcoming medical conference.
