Biomea Fusion Launches Phase I Trial of Oral GLP-1 Agonist BMF-650 for Obesity
Biomea Fusion Inc. has announced the presentation of preclinical data for its investigational oral small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist, BMF-650, and combination data for its covalent menin inhibitor candidate, icovamenib, with semaglutide at ObesityWeek® 2025. The preclinical studies demonstrated that BMF-650 produced potent weight loss and strong glycemic control in obese cynomolgus monkeys, with improvements in insulin sensitivity and preservation of lean mass. Additionally, in a rodent model of type 2 diabetes, the combination of icovamenib and low dose semaglutide showed enhanced glycemic control and body weight reduction compared to semaglutide alone. A Phase I study of BMF-650 in healthy obese patients is currently enrolling, with data expected in the first half of 2026. Biomea Fusion plans to begin clinical evaluation of icovamenib in patients with type 2 diabetes on GLP-1 based treatment in the fourth quarter of 2025, with first patient dosing expected in the first quarter of 2026.
