Novo Nordisk has released the clinical trial data for the new diabetes drug amycretin, showing that the drug not only lowers blood sugar but also has a significant weight loss effect. The trial results indicate that the amycretin injection, administered once a week, can help patients lose up to 14.5% of their weight within 36 weeks; the oral formulation can achieve a weight loss of up to 10.1% per day. This positive news has pushed the stock price of Novo Nordisk’s US shares to rise, recovering most of the losses it suffered previously due to the failure of its Ozempic oral version to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in two clinical trials.
