What Happened

Biomea Fusion presented new clinical and translational data for icovamenib at the ADA 86th Scientific Sessions. The data highlighted improvements in HbA1c and C-peptide levels in T1D/T2D patients and activation of metabolic pathways linked to fat loss and muscle preservation. The company also expanded its Phase I BMF-650 study to test rapid titration and weight-loss potential, with 28-day data expected in Q3 2026.
