- Icovamenib showed a sustained treatment benefit at Week 52 (9 months past the end of treatment) in the severe insulin-deficient diabetes patient population taking one or more antihyperglycemic medications at baseline, with a 1.8% placebo adjusted mean reduction in HbA1c (Arm B)
- Type 2 diabetes patients on a GLP-1-based therapy failing to achieve their target HbA1c also showed a clinically meaningful response from only 12 weeks of icovamenib treatment with a mean placebo adjusted HbA1c reduction of 1.8% (Arms A, B, and C combined) at Week 52
- Icovamenib was generally well tolerated across all dosing arms and demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile through Week 52
- Phase II trials in severe insulin-deficient diabetes patients and diabetes patients not achieving glycemic target with a GLP-1-based therapy are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2025
