Petrelintide has potential to redefine the weight management experience



  • Potential first choice treatment option setting a new standard for what to

    expect from a weight management journey

  • Petrelintide/enicepatide (CT-388) (GLP-1/GIP) for people who need greater weight loss and/or better glycemic control

  • 50/50 profit sharing on both monotherapy and combination

    USD 700m in milestone payments expected in 2026a

    • USD 575m of the total USD 1,225m in development milestones

      • USD 125m of the total USD 250m in anniversary payments

aZealand Pharma will pay Roche USD 350 million in four installments throughout 2026-2027 for the contribution of CT-388 in the first combination product arising from the collaboration.

R&D pipeline

In Phase 3 trial, survodutide delivered competitive weight loss and meaningful metabolic improvements

Survodutide holds potential as a differentiated therapy for people living with obesity or overweight, delivering competitive weight loss with the potential to directly support liver function

SYNCHRONIZETM-1: Overweight/obesity without T2D2

Baseline characteristics3:

Female: 59%, Body weight:109 kg, BMI: 38 kg/m2

Survodutide 6.0 mg QW Survodutide 3.6 mg QW

  • Up to 16.6% weight loss after 76 weeks of treatment with survodutide (vs. 3.2% in placebo arm)a

  • Initial analyses indicate that body weight reduction predominantly driven by loss of fat tissue

  • Delivered statistically significant reduction in waist circumference - clinical marker closely linked to visceral fat and cardiometabolic risk
