Innovent Mazdutide Announces Full ADA 2026 Slate (May 12) — Phase 3 GLORY-2 18.55% Weight Loss + DREAMS-3 vs Semaglutide Head-to-Head
Innovent Biologics announced May 12 that it will present multiple clinical and preclinical results from mazdutide and its next-generation obesity & metabolic pipeline at the 2026 American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions in New Orleans, June 5-8. Mazdutide is a GLP-1/glucagon dual agonist developed initially for the Chinese market. The Phase 3 GLORY-2 trial in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe obesity reported a mean 18.55% weight reduction at 60 weeks on 9 mg dosing (vs ~3% placebo); 44% of GLORY-2 patients hit ≥20% body weight loss vs 2.5% on placebo. The Phase 3 head-to-head DREAMS-3 trial in T2D + obesity showed 48% of mazdutide patients hit HbA1c <7% + ≥10% weight loss vs 21% on semaglutide at week 32. The 9 mg dose is under NMPA review for approval in China. Mazdutide is the leading non-Lilly dual GLP-1/glucagon program competing with Boehringer's survodutide and earlier-stage Western programs.
