Congratulations?to @Endogenex who just completed their first patient enrollment in the ReCET Clinical Study. This is a major milestone, which will help address the root causes of type 2 diabetes. ?

Historically, the venture capital industry has overlooked weight-loss solutions – but the advent of GLP-1 medications has changed the landscape rapidly over the past few years. ? Dennis McWilliams shares his perspective on the shift towards these treatments in a new Bloomberg article, highlighting recent developmental efforts to produce options with more tolerable side effects. Additionally, as patients often regain weight after stopping these drugs, companies are looking to create new strategies in managing this transition without rebounding. ? While it seems that every major pharma company now has their own obesity strategy, Dennis provides thoughts on where to invest in what has become a crowded market. ? https://lnkd.in/eHSqdsAG

We’re proud to play a role in the growth of @Endogenex – who this week announced an $88M Series C round!

It’s a novel solution with significant promise for patients struggling with this disease. Congrats to the full team on your continued success. https://lnkd.in/eCrU2nyb

Congratulations to the full team at @GlyscendTherapuetics on today’s announcement! ? The initiation of phase 2 clinical trials on GLY-200, a novel oral treatment for obesity, mark a big step forward in obesity treatment. Glyscend’s innovative approach mimics the effects of bariatric surgery with an oral drug, requiring far less of a burden on patients. ? Millions of people living with obesity and type 2 diabetes, who have so far had to rely on surgery or injection treatments, will (hopefully) be able to benefit from this approach in the future. It’s one of the reasons we are proud to work with companies like Glyscend who are truly moving the needle and changing the way we think about healthcare.

The 23rd annual Medtech MVP Conference is taking place June 17-18 this year in Minneapolis, and James Eadie, Managing Director will be joining the discussion. ? James will be on a panel covering the Clinical and Regulatory Strategies for Commercial Success, along with Margot G., Chief Medical Officer, SpyGlass Pharma, Sam Roosz, CEO, Crescendo Health, and Stacey Pugh CEO, Endogenex. ? Even the most innovative treatments cannot impact the healthcare system if they don’t have a viable path to commercial success. This will be a great conversation on strategies to keep in mind throughout a company’s growth, and what to do when things don’t go according to plan. ? If you’ll be at this year’s event, come hear the panel at 2:10 on June 18th. ? https://lnkd.in/e7Uuvt6h
