AstraZeneca Elecoglipron Adds China Phase 1b Detail at ADA 2026; VISTA and SOLSTICE Phase 2b Symposium Set for Monday

Eccogene and AstraZeneca presented a Sunday June 7 poster on the safety, tolerability, and PK/PD of elecoglipron (AZD5004/ECC5004) in Chinese adults with obesity or overweight, with or without type 2 diabetes. The Monday June 8 symposium covers the VISTA Phase 2b obesity readout and the SOLSTICE Phase 2b trial in type 2 diabetes, where the oral GLP-1 reduced HbA1c at 26 weeks and supported a Phase 3 transition. AstraZeneca plans to develop elecoglipron as an oral combination backbone alongside dapagliflozin in diabetes/CKD/HF and AZD0780 in dyslipidemia.
