Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals Inc. has announced interim results from two Phase 1/2a clinical trials of its investigational RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics, ARO-INHBE and ARO-ALK7, being developed as potential treatments for obesity. The preliminary data demonstrated meaningful reductions in key measures such as visceral fat, total fat, and liver fat. In obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, ARO-INHBE in combination with tirzepatide showed doubled weight loss and tripled reductions in visceral, total, and liver fat compared to tirzepatide alone. The studies also reported that ARO-ALK7 was generally well tolerated as monotherapy, with no serious adverse events observed. These interim results have already been presented by the company.
