Gubra started a first-in-human Phase 1/2a trial of obesity candidate GUB-UCN2, with the first participant completing the first visit.
Results have not been presented; initial safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic readouts from the single-dose portion are expected in H1 2027.
The study will assess early signals on body composition, with emphasis on preserving or improving muscle volume and function alongside weight-loss treatment.
About 188 healthy volunteers and people with obesity will be enrolled, testing GUB-UCN2 alone or combined with incretin-based therapy.
Preclinical findings indicated fat-mass reduction with muscle-mass gains, including prevention or reversal of lean-mass loss seen with GLP-1 therapies.
