• Adocia has filed patent applications of stable combinations of semaglutide in combination with cagrilintide
  • BioChaperone® CagriSema could be administered with all standard subcutaneous injection devices, particularly those for multi-use
  • The selected BioChaperone® has already been tested in humans, has a regulatory dossier for entry into Phase 3, and is produced on a large scale in GMP-quality

Regulatory News:

Adocia (Euronext Paris: FR0011184241 - ADOC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company specialized in the discovery and development of innovative therapeutic solutions for the treatment of diabetes and obesity, announced today that it has filed patents of stable formulations of hormone combinations for the treatment of obesity and diabetes using its BioChaperone® platform.

Several families of hormones can be used to achieve significant weight loss, starting with GLP-1 (e.g. semaglutide, tirzepatide), but also amylin analogs (e.g. cagrilintide, eloralintide, petrelintide…), which would have the advantage of targeting fat mass, while preserving muscle mass. Future generations of obesity treatments, for which analysts expect the market to reach 100 billion dollars by 2030, combine these different mechanisms of action to achieve better weight loss in terms of both quantity and quality.

However, this promising strategy is hampered by the incompatibility of many of these hormones, which cannot be formulated into a single product. To avoid double injection, pharmaceutical companies are developing injection devices, such as dual-chamber injectors, but they are limited to single use and are more complex to manufacture.

Thanks to its BioChaperone® platform, which enables hormone combinations to be made, Adocia has succeeded in overcoming this technological challenge and has obtained several stable combinations. The resulting combinations can be manufactured and administered in the world's most widely used standard injection devices, including auto-injectors and pens, for multiple or single use, and also standard vials with syringes. Adocia’s innovation could enable pharmaceutical companies to make the most of existing industrial facilities while maintaining ease of use for patients. Thus, a multi-use device (one device used for four weeks) would multiply by four the number of patients treated, versus with a single use (four devices per month), at constant manufacturing capacities.

“The demand for obesity products is growing exponentially, and this new application of our historic BioChaperone® platform places us at the heart of the obesity space,” says Olivier Soula, co-founder and CEO of Adocia. “The ease of use and manufacturing of our patented solution could address the main challenge facing pharmaceutical companies: answering the exploding demand.”

Adocia has patented, among other examples, a stable combination of cagrilintide and semaglutide (“CagriSema”, amylin analog and GLP-1 receptor agonist respectively, Novo Nordisk) with BioChaperone®, which could be administered in standard single- and multiple-use auto-injectors or pens, representing an improvement over a dual-chamber device.

The value of Adocia's innovation also lies in the intellectual property generated, which aims to extend the protection of these combinations by several years. The patent applications filed aim to provide worldwide protection for the combinations covered until 2045.

Adocia is continuing to research new combinations of peptides for the treatment of obesity using its BioChaperone® platform, with the aim of establishing partnerships for these innovations.
