Lilly's Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) significantly reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 45% when added to a venetoclax time-limited regimen in people with previously treated CLL/SLLJune 14, 2026 3:15 AM
PR Newswire (US) BRUIN CLL-322 is the first Phase 3 study to demonstrate superiority over a venetoclax-containing control arm in CLL, and, with the majority of patients previously treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor, reflects current practice patternsThese data will be highlighted in a late-breaking oral presentation at the 2026 European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual MeetingINDIANAPOLIS, June 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced results from the Phase 3 BRUIN CLL-322 clinical trial of Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib), a non-covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, plus venetoclax and rituximab versus venetoclax and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). The study met its primary endpoint of independent review committee (IRC)-assessed progression-free survival (PFS), demonstrating that the addition of pirtobrutinib to a two-year venetoclax plus rituximab regimen reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 45% (HR=0.55 [95% CI, 0.40-0.75]; p=0.0001).These data will be highlighted in a late-breaking oral presentation at the 2026 European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Meeting taking place in Stockholm, Sweden, as well as featured in the meeting's press program."These results from BRUIN CLL-322 show that the addition of pirtobrutinib as part of a time-limited regimen further enhanced an already effective treatment and extended the duration of remission for patients with previously treated CLL. Importantly, the study provides the first robust evidence for such an approach in patients who received a prior BTK inhibitor," said Matthew S. Davids, M.D., M.M.Sc., Chief of the Division of Lymphoma at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, who is the lead author on the study. "Time-limited regimens are an important option in CLL care and provide patients with meaningful treatment-free intervals. In the context of the modern CLL treatment landscape, where many patients may only receive two lines of therapy, these results speak to the potential benefits that improving second-line therapy can have. Our study has the potential to establish a new standard of care in this population."BRUIN CLL-322 enrolled 639 relapsed or refractory patients, with 79.8% having prior covalent BTK inhibitor exposure, who were randomized 1:1 to receive pirtobrutinib plus venetoclax and rituximab (PVR, n=321) or venetoclax and rituximab alone (VR, n=318). Patients in the PVR arm received three cycles of pirtobrutinib and the first three cycles of rituximab before venetoclax was introduced. The efficacy results are based on a Feb. 2, 2026 data cutoff. At a median follow-up of 27.3 months, the primary endpoint of IRC-assessed PFS was significantly improved with the addition of pirtobrutinib to VR compared to VR alone (HR=0.55 [95% CI, 0.40-0.75]; p=0.0001). Median PFS in the PVR arm was not reached (95% CI, 43.3-NE), versus 39.7 months (95% CI, 35.9-NE) in the VR arm. The PFS results were consistent across prespecified subgroups, including patients with prior covalent BTK inhibitor exposure (PVR: not reached [95% CI, 41.5-NE] versus VR: 36.2 months [95% CI, 33.2-NE]), those who discontinued prior covalent BTK inhibitor due to progressive disease (PVR: 43.3 months [95% CI, 39.2-NE] versus VR: 33.2 months [95% CI, 28.3-37.5]), as well as those with high-risk features such as unmutated IGHV, TP53 mutation and/or 17p deletion, and/or complex karyotype. In an exploratory analysis of second-line patients whose disease progressed after a first-line covalent BTK inhibitor, the median PFS was not reached (95% CI, 30.1-NE) in the PVR arm and was 28.3 months (95% CI, 20.5-NE) in the VR arm (HR=0.32 [95% CI, 0.14-0.73]), with 24-month PFS rates of 88% (95% CI, 75.7-94.6) and 52% (95% CI, 34.7-66.2), respectively, and consistent benefit was observed regardless of the specific prior covalent BTK inhibitor received.Overall survival (OS), a key secondary endpoint, was not yet mature at this analysis (HR=0.89 [95% CI, 0.57-1.40]), and final testing of OS superiority is planned at a future date. An additional secondary endpoint, time to next treatment (TTNT), consistently favored the pirtobrutinib combination regimen (HR=0.50 [95% CI, 0.35-0.70]; nominal p

Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Shaquille O'Neal launch national campaign after NBA legend learns the obstructive sleep apnea he has lived with for years is treatableJune 10, 2026 9:30 AM
PR Newswire (US) In the national campaign Watch This, O'Neal gets real about living with moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the moment he decided to do something about itZepbound® (tirzepatide) is the first and only prescription medicine for moderate-to-severe OSA in adults with obesity and should be used along with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activityINDIANAPOLIS, June 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced that basketball legend and cultural icon Shaquille O'Neal is sharing his personal experience with moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), including candid insight into his diagnosis and treatment journey with Zepbound® (tirzepatide). After years of dismissing fatigue, loud snoring and difficulty focusing as normal parts of his life, O'Neal learned they were actually symptoms of moderate-to-severe OSA. Moderate-to-severe OSA is a serious but often overlooked condition that affects approximately 24 million adults in the US, many with obesity. Most cases of moderate-to-severe OSA remain undiagnosed and untreated. Now, he's partnering with Lilly to raise awareness of the condition and encourage others to talk to their doctor. "For a long time, I was tired during the day, not sleeping well at night, and I just thought that's how it was for someone my size," said O'Neal. "When my doctor told me I had moderate obstructive sleep apnea, it clicked – this wasn't just about snoring, it was a real health condition. Being prescribed Zepbound helped make a difference for me in my OSA treatment journey; I even lost some weight. If sharing my story helps even one person talk to their doctor, that's a win."Moderate-to-severe OSA can be characterized by symptoms such as daytime fatigue, loud snoring, and difficulty concentrating, yet 85% of cases remain undiagnosed.To help close this awareness gap, Lilly is launching Watch This, a national, multi-channel campaign built around O'Neal's experience. The campaign spans broadcast, streaming, digital and social platforms, along with in-person community events and appearances. In his own voice, O'Neal shares the symptoms he dismissed for years and why he decided to take action, pointing audiences to resources at zepbound.lilly.com to recognize their own symptoms and connect with care and treatment options."Millions of people are living with moderate-to-severe OSA and may experience snoring, daytime sleepiness and irritability," said Lina Polimeni, senior vice president and chief marketing officer, consumer, at Lilly. "Shaquille was one of those people, so he didn't simply want to be another name on a campaign – he wanted to tell the truth about his own health on his own terms. That kind of honesty can help move other people from thinking they are just tired, experience chronic snoring, and have trouble sleeping, to recognizing they should talk to their doctor."Moderate-to-severe OSA in adults with obesity is treatable, and Lilly is committed to ensuring people have the resources they need to move from symptoms to diagnosis to care. People who believe they may be experiencing symptoms of OSA can visit Lilly.com to learn more about at-home testing or with their doctor to discuss treatment plans.Zepbound® is a prescription medicine for moderate-to-severe OSA in adults with obesity, which should be used along with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. In clinical studies along with diet and exercise, Zepbound® significantly reduced breathing interruptions during sleep, and some adults taking the medicine had no OSA symptoms after just one year. *†‡* In a 52-week study, adults taking Zepbound (10 mg or 15 mg) went from a starting average of 52.9 breathing disruptions per hour during sleep (as defined by AHI) to 27.6 (vs 50.1 events per hour to 44.8 with placebo). In another 52-week study of adults on positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy, those who took Zepbound (10 mg or 15 mg) went from a starting average of 46.1 breathing disruptions per hour during sleep to 16.8 (vs 53.1 events per hour to 47.6 with placebo). † In a 52-week study of adults, of those taking Zepbound (10 mg or 15 mg) with a starting average of 52.9 breathing disruptions per hour during sleep (as defined by AHI), 42.2% reached an AHI of

FDA approves Lilly's EBGLYSS® (lebrikizumab-lbkz) for one maintenance dose every eight weeks in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitisJune 9, 2026 6:18 PM
PR Newswire (US) EBGLYSS is now the only approved option that offers as few as six maintenance injections per year with no required topicals from the startINDIANAPOLIS, June 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a regimen of one maintenance dose every eight weeks of a single injection (250 mg/2 mL) of EBGLYSS (lebrikizumab-lbkz) for subcutaneous use in adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40 kg) with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. EBGLYSS is already approved for a once-monthly maintenance dose, with long-term data showing durable disease control. Now, EBGLYSS gives patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis the option to manage their condition with as few as six maintenance injections per year.1"Today's approval builds on EBGLYSS' established long-term durability, with a new option for one maintenance dose every eight weeks. For people living with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, that means a treatment they only need to take as few as six times a year—without prescription topicals from the start," said Adrienne Brown, executive vice president and president of Lilly Immunology. "EBGLYSS now gives patients the opportunity to flare less and live their lives with fewer interruptions from atopic dermatitis."The approval is based on longitudinal exposure-response modeling data and supported by every-eight-week clinical data from an extension to the Phase 3 ADjoin long-term trial, which evaluated EBGLYSS maintenance dosing every four weeks or every eight weeks over 32 weeks.2"The option to extend EBGLYSS maintenance dosing to every eight weeks represents an important moment for patients living with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis," said Peter Lio, M.D., author of the ADjoin study and clinical assistant professor of dermatology and pediatrics, Northwestern University. "This new dosing regimen without mandatory topicals gives patients a new option to manage their condition based on individual needs. It's about meeting patients where they are in their lives."No new safety signals were noted in the EBGLYSS safety data in the 32-week ADjoin Q8W extension. No patients discontinued due to adverse events through 32 weeks. The most common (≥1%) adverse reactions reported with EBGLYSS are conjunctivitis, injection site reactions and herpes zoster.1"Living with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis often means dealing with a cycle of symptoms and time-intensive treatment routines during and in-between flares," said Kristin Belleson, president and CEO of the National Eczema Association. "Patients living with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis seek treatments that can offer durable disease control and fewer injections. This new option can ease the burden, allowing patients to spend less time thinking about managing their condition on a daily basis."Lilly has exclusive rights for development and commercialization of EBGLYSS in the U.S. and the rest of the world outside Europe. Almirall has licensed the rights to develop and commercialize EBGLYSS for the treatment of dermatology indications, including atopic dermatitis, in Europe.About the Q8W ADjoin Extension
The Q8W ADjoin extension (NCT04392154) evaluated EBGLYSS administered once every eight weeks (Q8W) and once every four weeks (Q4W), assessing its long-term safety and efficacy over 32 weeks in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis across select countries. Adult and adolescent patients (ages 12–17, weighing ≥40 kg) who completed the 100-week ADjoin long-term study, including participants from the Phase 3 ADvocate 1 and 2 trials (52 weeks), ADore trial (52 weeks) and the ADopt-VA (16 weeks) trial, were eligible to enroll. Patients in this analysis received open-label EBGLYSS 250 mg, Q8W or Q4W, regardless of their previous treatment in ADjoin (Q2W or Q4W dose) or response at extension baseline. The approved maintenance dose of EBGLYSS is 250 mg every four weeks or 250 mg every eight weeks, after taking EBGLYSS 250 mg every two weeks for 16 weeks or later when adequate clinical response is achieved.About EBGLYSS
EBGLYSS is a monoclonal antibody that selectively targets and neutralizes IL-13 with high binding affinity and a slow dissociation rate.1,3,4 EBGLYSS binds to the IL-13 cytokine at an area that overlaps with the binding site of the IL-4Ra subunit of the IL-13Ra1/IL-4Ra heterodimer, preventing formation of this receptor complex and inhibiting IL-13 signaling. IL-13 is implicated as a primary cytokine tied to the pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis, driving the type-2 inflammatory loop in the skin, and EBGLYSS selectively targets IL-13.1The EBGLYSS Phase 3 program in atopic dermatitis consists of seven key global studies evaluating more than 1,600 patients, including two monotherapy studies (ADvocate 1 and 2), a combination study with topical corticosteroids (ADhere), long-term extension (ADjoin) and adolescent open-label (ADore) studies. The program also includes a study assessing the impact of EBGLYSS on vaccine immune response in adults (ADopt-VA). EBGLYSS has been studied in patients with skin of color (ADmirable) and in dupilumab-experienced patients (ADapt).EBGLYSS was approved in the U.S., Japan and Canada in 2024 and in the European Union in 2023. EBGLYSS is a first-line biologic treatment, administered with or without topical corticosteroids, that offers every-four-week or every-eight-week maintenance dosing for adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40 kg) with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis that is not well-controlled with topical prescription therapies.1  In the U.S., the recommended initial starting dose of EBGLYSS is 500 mg (two 250 mg injections) at Week 0 and Week 2, followed by 250 mg every two weeks until Week 16 or later when adequate clinical response is achieved; after this, maintenance dosing is 250 mg every four weeks or every eight weeks.1Lilly is committed to serving patients living with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and is working to enable broad first-line biologic access to EBGLYSS for patients not well-controlled with topical prescription therapy through commercial insurance. Lilly has coverage with all three major national pharmacy benefit managers and 94% of commercially insured patients have coverage through national health plans. We have expanded Medicaid coverage and are pursuing similarly broad Medicare coverage as part of Lilly's health equity and affordability initiative. Through Lilly Support Services™ for EBGLYSS®, Lilly offers a patient support program including co-pay assistance for eligible, commercially insured patients.INDICATION AND SAFETY SUMMARY

Lilly's oral GLP-1 Foundayo (orforglipron) delivered superior A1C control and weight loss in three pivotal type 2 diabetes trialsJune 8, 2026 2:30 PM
PR Newswire (US) In ACHIEVE-3, Foundayo 17.2 mg drove 57.1% greater relative reduction in A1C and 73.6% greater relative weight loss compared to oral semaglutide 14 mgIn ACHIEVE-2 and ACHIEVE-5, Foundayo delivered significant improvements in blood sugar and weight, with up to 68.6% and 69.1% of participants reaching an A1C goal of ≤6.5% respectivelyLilly plans to submit Foundayo for type 2 diabetes to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by the end of the second quarterINDIANAPOLIS, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the maker of Zepbound (tirzepatide), today announced detailed results from three Phase 3 trials in the ACHIEVE program evaluating Foundayo (orforglipron), a small molecule oral GLP-1 taken without food or water restrictions, in adults with type 2 diabetes. In the landmark head-to-head ACHIEVE-3 trial, Foundayo outperformed oral semaglutide across the primary and all key secondary endpoints. In ACHIEVE-2 and ACHIEVE-5, Foundayo met the primary endpoint and key secondary endpoints, delivering superior A1C reduction and weight loss versus dapagliflozin and placebo added to insulin glargine respectively.1,2 Results from ACHIEVE-3, ACHIEVE-2 and ACHIEVE-5 were presented at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 86th Scientific Sessions. ACHIEVE-3 was previously published in The Lancet, while ACHIEVE-2 and ACHIEVE-5 were published in The Lancet and JAMA, respectively."ACHIEVE-3 provides the first head-to-head data on oral GLP-1s in type 2 diabetes, with orforglipron showing greater A1C and weight reductions than oral semaglutide, which was tested at approved diabetes doses," said Dr. Julio Rosenstock, clinical professor of medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and ACHIEVE-3 lead investigator. "That level of efficacy is reinforced in ACHIEVE-2 and ACHIEVE-5, demonstrating a consistent and robust treatment effect across a wide spectrum of patient populations. These results support a potential shift toward using oral GLP-1 receptor agonist therapies like orforglipron earlier as a foundation of type 2 diabetes care."In ACHIEVE-3, Foundayo 9 mg and 17.2 mg outperformed oral semaglutide 7 mg and 14 mg in the first and only head-to-head Phase 3 trial of two oral GLP-1 receptor agonists for type 2 diabetes.3 Foundayo lowered A1C by an average of 1.9% (9 mg) and 2.2% (17.2 mg) compared to 1.1% (7 mg) and 1.4% (14 mg) with oral semaglutide at 52 weeks, a 57.1% greater relative reduction at the highest dose comparison.

Eli Lilly shares climb after new obesity drug results impress at ADA conference (LLY)June 8, 2026 6:43 AM
IH Market News Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) shares gained 4.5% after the pharmaceutical giant unveiled additional clinical data on its obesity treatment retatrutide during the American Diabetes Association (ADA) conference over the weekend. The company presented detailed findings from two Phase 3 studies, reinforcing investor confidence in the drug’s potential and highlighting the strength of Lilly’s expanding cardiometabolic portfolio. Retatrutide delivers strong weight-loss results At Saturday’s symposium, Eli Lilly shared full results from the TRANSCEND-T2D-1 and TRIUMPH-1 Phase 3 trials. TRANSCEND-T2D-1 examined retatrutide in treatment-naive patients with Type 2 diabetes, while TRIUMPH-1 focused on individuals with overweight or obesity who did not have Type 2 diabetes. Data from the TRIUMPH-1 study showed that patients receiving the 4mg dose of retatrutide achieved weight-loss outcomes that exceeded those reported in the STEP 1 trial of semaglutide. Notably, the results were within 4% of the weight reduction achieved with the highest 15mg dose of tirzepatide in the SURMOUNT 1 study, despite the lower retatrutide dose requiring only a single titration step. Safety profile remains in line with expectations According to analysts, the data met expectations for the drug candidate and did not reveal any new safety concerns. While key headline results from the first Phase 3 study had already been disclosed in late May, the weekend presentations provided a more comprehensive look at the findings. The accelerated timeline meant the data were not published simultaneously in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, but the additional detail appeared sufficient to reassure investors regarding the drug’s development trajectory. Lilly highlights broader obesity and metabolic pipeline During an investor event held on Saturday evening, Eli Lilly also provided updates on its wider cardiometabolic strategy. The company indicated that its long-acting amylin analogue, eloralintide, has the potential to become one of the largest Phase 3 development programmes in Lilly’s history. Investors are now awaiting combination trial data evaluating eloralintide alongside tirzepatide, which is expected later this year. Tirzepatide continues to gain ground on Novo Nordisk Lilly also highlighted the ongoing commercial success of tirzepatide, which is marketed as Mounjaro for Type 2 diabetes and Zepbound for obesity. The treatment has continued to capture market share from competing Novo Nordisk products Ozempic and Wegovy, both in the United States and, since the first quarter of 2026, in international markets as well. The latest clinical updates further strengthen Eli Lilly’s position in the rapidly expanding obesity and metabolic disease market, where competition among major pharmaceutical companies remains intense.

Lilly's Foundayo (orforglipron), the only oral GLP-1 taken without food or water restrictions, was associated with significant weight loss in women at every stage of menopauseJune 7, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) In ATTAIN-1, women in perimenopause taking Foundayo lost up to 30.4 lbs (14.4%) and those in post-menopause lost up to 28.2 lbs (14.1%)In ATTAIN-2, women taking Foundayo lost significant weight across all stages of menopause, despite the additional challenge of living with type 2 diabetesAcross studies, women taking Foundayo saw meaningful reductions in their waist circumference, a measure associated with reduced abdominal fat and cardiometabolic riskINDIANAPOLIS, June 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the maker of Zepbound (tirzepatide), today announced results demonstrating that women with obesity or overweight who took the highest dose of Foundayo experienced significant weight loss at every stage of menopause. These findings, based on post-hoc analyses of more than 1,500 female participants in the ATTAIN-1 and ATTAIN-2 clinical trials, were presented at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 86th Scientific Sessions.Menopause is a major, yet often overlooked, driver of weight gain. Hormonal changes during this time can accelerate fat accumulation, particularly around the abdomen, and make weight loss harder to achieve and sustain.1 Despite affecting tens of millions of women in the U.S. alone, menopausal status has rarely been evaluated as a factor in obesity treatment efficacy.2"Menopause can be an incredibly frustrating time for many women, partly because weight gain often feels beyond their control, and the biology of menopause can undermine even the most determined efforts to manage weight," said Rachel Batterham, OBE, MBBS, Ph.D., FRCP, Lilly senior vice president of medical innovation and external engagement. "These findings show that Foundayo was associated with meaningful weight loss in women at every stage of menopause. For women who have seen their weight become harder to manage precisely when their health is more at risk, this is what progress could look like."Across ATTAIN-1 and ATTAIN-2, Foundayo was associated with significant reductions in body weight at 72 weeks across menopausal stages.

Foundayo (orforglipron) is FDA-approved for adults with obesity, or some adults with overweight who also have weight-related medical problems to reduce excess body weight and maintain weight reduction long term, alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Foundayo is a once-daily small molecule (non-peptide) oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that can be taken any time of the day without restrictions on food and water intake. Orforglipron was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and licensed by Lilly in 2018. In addition to chronic weight management, orforglipron is being studied as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, osteoarthritis knee pain, hypertension, peripheral artery disease and stress urinary incontinence.About ATTAIN-1, ATTAIN-2 and ATTAIN clinical trial program 
ATTAIN-1 (NCT05869903) is a Phase 3, 72-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of Foundayo 5.5 mg, 9 mg and 17.2 mg as a monotherapy to placebo in adults with obesity, or overweight with at least one of the following comorbidities: hypertension, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea or cardiovascular disease, who did not have diabetes. The trial is the first Phase 3 study of this patient population in which treatment was evaluated as an adjunct to exercise and a balanced, healthy diet rather than a reduced-calorie diet. The trial randomized 3,127 participants across the U.S., Brazil, China, India, Japan, South Korea, Puerto Rico, Slovakia, Spain and Taiwan in 3:3:3:4 ratio to receive either 5.5 mg, 9 mg or 17.2 mg Foundayo or placebo. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that Foundayo (5.5 mg, 9 mg or 17.2 mg) is superior to placebo in body weight reduction from baseline after 72 weeks in people with a BMI ≥30.0 kg/m² or a BMI ≥27.0 kg/m² with at least one weight-related comorbidity and a history of at least one self-reported unsuccessful dietary effort to lose body weight.ATTAIN-2 (NCT05872620) is a Phase 3, 72-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of Foundayo 5.5 mg, 9 mg or 17.2 mg as monotherapy with placebo in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes. The trial randomized over 1,600 participants across the U.S., Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, Czechia, Germany, Greece, India, South Korea and Puerto Rico in a 1:1:1:2 ratio to receive either 5.5 mg, 9 mg or 17.2 mg Foundayo or placebo. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that Foundayo (5.5 mg, 9 mg or 17.2 mg) is superior to placebo in mean body weight change from baseline at 72 weeks in people with a BMI ≥27.0 kg/m² and type 2 diabetes who are on stable treatment with either diet/exercise alone or up to three oral antihyperglycemic medications.In both trials, all participants in the Foundayo treatment arms started the study at a dose of Foundayo 0.8 mg once-daily and then increased the dose in a step-wise approach at four-week intervals to their final randomized maintenance dose of 5.5 mg (via steps at 0.8 mg and 2.5 mg), 9 mg (via steps at 0.8 mg, 2.5 mg and 5.5 mg) or 17.2 mg (via steps at 0.8 mg, 2.5 mg, 5.5 mg, 9 mg and 14.5 mg). These trials were conducted using an investigational formulation of Foundayo at dosages equivalent to Foundayo tablets.Endnotes and ReferencesKapoor E, Collazo-Clavell ML, Faubion SS.

Lilly's triple agonist, retatrutide, drove substantial improvements in weight, A1C, knee osteoarthritis pain, and obstructive sleep apnea, demonstrating its remarkable potential to treat obesity and its complicationsJune 6, 2026 2:30 PM
PR Newswire (US) In TRIUMPH-1, participants on retatrutide 12 mg lost an average of 70.3 lbs (28.3%) over 80 weeks, with 65.3% achieving a BMI below 30, no longer meeting the BMI criteria for obesityIn addition to weight loss, retatrutide reduced knee osteoarthritis pain by up to 4.3 points (73.1%) and moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea severity by up to 36.1 events per hour (60.6%)In TRANSCEND-T2D-1, participants on retatrutide achieved A1C reductions of up to 2.0% and weight loss of up to 36.6 lbs (16.8%) at 40 weeks, with up to 46% achieving a normal A1CINDIANAPOLIS, June 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the maker of Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Foundayo (orforglipron), today announced additional positive results from pivotal Phase 3 trials of retatrutide, an investigational, first-in-class GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon triple hormone receptor agonist, showing substantial weight loss along with meaningful improvements across knee osteoarthritis pain, moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea, and type 2 diabetes – common obesity-related conditions.1,2 The findings from TRIUMPH-1 and TRANSCEND-T2D-1 were presented at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 86th Scientific Sessions, with TRANSCEND-T2D-1 results simultaneously published in The Lancet."Obesity drives more than 200 downstream diseases, yet we have historically treated those conditions one at a time and in silos," said Ania Jastreboff, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Medicine & Pediatrics (Endocrinology) at the Yale School of Medicine, Director of the Yale Obesity Research Center (Y-Weight), and lead investigator. "In TRIUMPH-1 and TRANSCEND-T2D-1, treatment with retatrutide resulted in substantial weight reduction together with clinically meaningful improvements in glycemia, knee osteoarthritis pain, and obstructive sleep apnea, with many individuals reaching what are classified as healthy-range weight and normal blood sugar levels. These findings demonstrate what may be possible when we treat obesity and impact overall health, and what this could mean for people living with obesity and its related complications."TRIUMPH-1 included an overarching trial for adults with obesity and two nested basket trials: one for knee osteoarthritis pain and one for moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea. Retatrutide met the primary endpoints in each trial at 80 weeks, delivering powerful weight loss along with significant improvements in knee osteoarthritis pain and obstructive sleep apnea. Participants on retatrutide 9 mg and 12 mg lost an average of 64.4 lbs (25.9%) and 70.3 lbs (28.3%), respectively, while those on the 4 mg dose, reached with a single dose escalation step, lost an average of 47.2 lbs (19.0%).3 Notably, 65.3% of participants on retatrutide 12 mg achieved a BMI

TD Cowen Lifts GLP-1 Market Outlook, Sees Global Sales Reaching $150 Billion by 2030June 5, 2026 9:39 AM
IH Market News TD Cowen has raised its long-term forecast for the global GLP-1 market, projecting annual sales of diabetes and obesity treatments in the category will reach $150 billion by 2030. The revised estimate marks an increase from the firm’s previous forecast of $139 billion, reflecting stronger expectations for patient adoption and continued expansion of the market. Patient Numbers Expected to Grow Significantly The brokerage now anticipates that approximately 59 million people worldwide will be using GLP-1 therapies by the end of the decade. That compares with its earlier projection of 46 million patients, highlighting expectations for broader access to treatment and increasing demand for weight-management and diabetes medications. According to TD Cowen, growth in patient volumes should more than offset pricing pressures expected across the sector. Lower Prices Seen Driving Wider Adoption The firm noted that future price reductions are likely to be accompanied by substantial increases in treatment uptake. As manufacturers expand production capacity and competition intensifies, lower pricing could help make GLP-1 therapies accessible to a larger patient population, supporting continued market growth despite potential pressure on revenue per prescription. Oral Treatments Poised to Capture Larger Share TD Cowen also upgraded its outlook for oral GLP-1 medications, which are expected to become an increasingly important segment of the market. The firm now forecasts that oral formulations will account for 14% of global GLP-1 sales by 2030, compared with its previous estimate of 11%. The growing role of pill-based treatments reflects expectations that some patients and healthcare providers will favor oral alternatives over injectable therapies when clinically appropriate. Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk Expected to Remain Dominant Despite the arrival of new competitors, TD Cowen expects the market to remain heavily concentrated among the current industry leaders. Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) is projected to hold approximately 62% of the global GLP-1 market by value in 2030, while Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO) is expected to account for roughly 31%. Together, the two pharmaceutical companies are forecast to control the overwhelming majority of industry sales as demand for obesity and diabetes treatments continues to accelerate worldwide. Obesity and Diabetes Markets Continue to Expand The revised forecast underscores growing confidence in the long-term potential of GLP-1 therapies, which have transformed treatment options for both Type 2 diabetes and obesity. With patient adoption expected to increase substantially over the coming years, the sector remains one of the fastest-growing areas within the global pharmaceutical industry.

Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) (pronounced jay-pihr-kaa) is a highly selective (300 times more selective for BTK versus 98% of other kinases tested in preclinical studies), non-covalent inhibitor of the enzyme BTK.1 BTK is a validated molecular target found across numerous B-cell leukemias and lymphomas including mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).2,3 Jaypirca is a U.S. FDA-approved oral prescription medicine, 100 mg or 50 mg tablets taken as a once-daily 200 mg dose with or without food until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.INDICATIONS FOR JAYPIRCA (pirtobrutinib)
Jaypirca is indicated for the treatment ofAdult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) who have previously been treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.Adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) after at least two lines of systemic therapy, including a BTK inhibitor. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR JAYPIRCA (pirtobrutinib)Infections: Fatal and serious infections (including bacterial, viral, fungal) and opportunistic infections occurred in Jaypirca-treated patients. Across clinical trials, Grade ≥3 infections occurred (25%), most commonly pneumonia (20%); fatal infections (5%), sepsis (6%), and febrile neutropenia (3.8%) occurred. In patients with CLL/SLL, Grade ≥3 infections occurred (32%), with fatal infections occurring in 8%. Opportunistic infections included Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and fungal infection. Consider prophylaxis, including vaccinations and antimicrobial prophylaxis, in patients at increased risk for infection, including opportunistic infections. Monitor for signs and symptoms, evaluate, and treat. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Hemorrhage: Fatal and serious hemorrhage has occurred with Jaypirca. Across clinical trials, major hemorrhage (Grade ≥3 bleeding or any central nervous system bleeding) occurred (2.6%), including gastrointestinal hemorrhage; fatal hemorrhage occurred (0.3%). Bleeding of any grade, excluding bruising and petechiae, occurred (16%). Major hemorrhage occurred when taking Jaypirca with (2.0%) and without (0.6%) antithrombotic agents. Consider risks/benefits of co-administering antithrombotic agents with Jaypirca. Monitor for signs of bleeding. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca. Consider withholding Jaypirca 3-7 days pre- and post-surgery based on surgery type and bleeding risk.Cytopenias: Jaypirca can cause cytopenias, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. Across clinical trials, Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias, including decreased neutrophils (27%), decreased platelets (13%), and decreased hemoglobin (11%), developed. Grade 4 decreased neutrophils (15%) and Grade 4 decreased platelets (6%) developed. Monitor complete blood counts regularly. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Cardiac Arrhythmias: Cardiac arrhythmias occurred in patients taking Jaypirca. Across clinical trials, atrial fibrillation or flutter were reported in 3.4% of Jaypirca treated patients, with Grade 3 or 4 atrial fibrillation or flutter in 1.6%. Other serious cardiac arrhythmias such as supraventricular tachycardia and cardiac arrest occurred (0.4%). Cardiac risk factors such as hypertension or previous arrhythmias may increase risk. Monitor and manage signs and symptoms of arrhythmias (e.g., palpitations, dizziness, syncope, dyspnea). Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Second Primary Malignancies: Across clinical trials, second primary malignancies, including non-skin carcinomas, developed in 9% of Jaypirca-treated patients, most frequently non-melanoma skin cancer (4.4%). Other second primary malignancies included solid tumors (including genitourinary and breast cancers) and melanoma. Advise patients to use sun protection and monitor for development of second primary malignancies.Hepatotoxicity, Including Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI): Hepatotoxicity, including severe, life-threatening, and potentially fatal cases of DILI, has occurred in patients treated with BTK inhibitors, including Jaypirca. Evaluate bilirubin and transaminases at baseline and throughout Jaypirca treatment. For patients who develop abnormal liver tests after Jaypirca, monitor more frequently for liver test abnormalities and clinical signs and symptoms of hepatic toxicity. If DILI is suspected, withhold Jaypirca. If DILI is confirmed, discontinue Jaypirca.Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Jaypirca can cause fetal harm. Administration of pirtobrutinib to pregnant rats caused embryo-fetal toxicity, including embryo-fetal mortality and malformations at maternal exposures (AUC) approximately 3-times the recommended 200 mg/day dose. Advise pregnant women of fetal risk and females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for one week after last dose.Adverse Reactions (ARs) in Patients Who Received JaypircaThe most common (≥30%) ARs in the pooled safety population of patients with hematologic malignancies (n=704) were decreased neutrophil count (54%), decreased hemoglobin (43%), decreased leukocytes (32%), fatigue (31%), decreased platelets (31%), decreased lymphocyte count (31%), calcium decreased (30%).Mantle Cell LymphomaSerious ARs occurred in 38% of patients, with pneumonia (14%), COVID-19 (4.7%), musculoskeletal pain (3.9%), hemorrhage (2.3%), pleural effusion (2.3%), and sepsis (2.3%) occurring in ≥2% of patients. Fatal ARs within 28 days of last dose occurred in 7% of patients, most commonly due to infections (4.7%), including COVID-19 (3.1% of all patients).Dose Modifications and Discontinuations Due to ARs: Dose reductions in 4.7%, treatment interruption in 32%, and permanent discontinuation of Jaypirca in 9% of patients. Permanent discontinuation in >1% of patients included pneumonia.Most common ARs (≥15%) and Select Laboratory Abnormalities (≥10%) (all Grades %; Grade 3-4 %): hemoglobin decreased (42; 9), platelet count decreased (39; 14), neutrophil count decreased (36; 16), lymphocyte count decreased (32; 15), creatinine increased (30; 1.6), fatigue (29; 1.6), musculoskeletal pain (27; 3.9), calcium decreased (19; 1.6), diarrhea (19; -), edema (18; 0.8), dyspnea (17; 2.3), AST increased (17; 1.6), pneumonia (16; 14), bruising (16; -), potassium decreased (13; 1.6), sodium decreased (13; -), lipase increased (12; 4.4), ALT increased (11; 1.6), potassium increased (11; 0.8), alkaline phosphatase increased (11; -). Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in >5% of patients included neutrophils decreased (10), platelets decreased (7), lymphocytes decreased (6).Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma from Single-Arm and Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials Serious ARs occurred in 47-56% of patients across clinical trials. Serious ARs in ≥5% of patients in the single-arm trial were pneumonia (18%), COVID-19 (9%), sepsis (7%), febrile neutropenia (7%). Serious ARs in ≥3% of patients in the randomized controlled trial were pneumonia (21%), COVID-19 (5%), sepsis (3.4%). Fatal ARs within 28-30 days of last Jaypirca dose occurred in 8-11% of patients, most commonly due to infections (7-10%), including sepsis (5%), COVID-19 (2.7-5%), and pneumonia (3.4%).Dose Modifications and Discontinuations Due to ARs: Dose reductions in 3.6-10%, treatment interruption in 42-51%, and permanent discontinuation of Jaypirca in 9-17% of patients. Permanent discontinuation in >1% of patients included second primary malignancy, pneumonia, COVID-19, neutropenia, sepsis, anemia, and cardiac arrhythmias.Most common ARs and Select Laboratory Abnormalities (≥20%) (all Grades %, Grade 3-4 %)--in a randomized controlled trial: neutrophil count decreased (54; 26), hemoglobin decreased (45; 10), platelet count decreased (37; 17), pneumonia (28; 16), ALT increased (25; 1.8), creatinine increased (25; -), calcium decreased (23; 0.9), sodium decreased (22; 0.9), bilirubin increased (21; 0.9), upper respiratory tract infections (21; 0.9); in a single-arm trial: neutrophil count decreased (63; 45), hemoglobin decreased (48; 19), calcium decreased (40; 2.8), fatigue (36; 2.7), bruising (36; -), cough (33; -), musculoskeletal pain (32; 0.9), platelet count decreased (30; 15), sodium decreased (30; -), COVID-19 (28; 7), pneumonia (27; 16), diarrhea (26; -), abdominal pain (25; 2.7), lymphocyte count decreased (23; 8), ALT increased (23; 2.8), AST increased (23; 1.9), creatinine increased (23; -), dyspnea (22; 2.7), hemorrhage (22; 2.7), lipase increased (21; 7), alkaline phosphatase increased (21; -), edema (21; -), nausea (21; -), pyrexia (20; 2.7), headache (20; 0.9). Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in >5% of patients included neutrophils decreased (23).Drug InteractionsStrong CYP3A Inhibitors: Concomitant use increased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure, which may increase risk of Jaypirca ARs. Avoid using strong CYP3A inhibitors with Jaypirca. If concomitant use is unavoidable, reduce Jaypirca dose according to approved labeling.Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inducers: Concomitant use decreased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure, which may reduce Jaypirca efficacy. Avoid using Jaypirca with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. If concomitant use with moderate CYP3A inducers is unavoidable, increase Jaypirca dose according to approved labeling.Sensitive CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP3A, P-gp, or BCRP Substrates: Use with Jaypirca increased their plasma concentrations, which may increase risk of ARs related to these substrates for drugs sensitive to minimal concentration changes. Follow recommendations for these sensitive substrates in their approved labeling.Use in Specific PopulationsPregnancy and Lactation: Due to potential for Jaypirca to cause fetal harm, verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to starting Jaypirca. Presence of pirtobrutinib in human milk is unknown. Advise women to use effective contraception and to not breastfeed while taking Jaypirca and for one week after last dose.Geriatric Use: In the pooled safety population of patients with hematologic malignancies, patients aged ≥65 years experienced higher rates of Grade ≥3 ARs and serious ARs compared to patients

Lilly Reports Strong Phase 3 Results for Retevmo in Early-Stage Lung Cancer (LLY)June 1, 2026 5:37 AM
IH Market News Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) announced positive data from its Phase 3 LIBRETTO-432 trial, showing that Retevmo significantly lowered the risk of disease recurrence or death in patients with early-stage RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following initial treatment. The study found that treatment with Retevmo (selpercatinib) reduced the risk of recurrence or death by 83% compared with placebo, highlighting the drug’s potential role as an adjuvant therapy for patients with RET-driven lung cancer. Trial Assessed Retevmo Following Surgery or Radiation The LIBRETTO-432 trial enrolled 151 patients with stage IB to IIIA RET fusion-positive NSCLC who had previously undergone surgery or radiation therapy. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either selpercatinib at a dose of 160mg twice daily or a placebo, with treatment continuing for up to three years. The objective was to determine whether Retevmo could improve outcomes by reducing the likelihood of disease recurrence after initial treatment. Event-Free Survival Significantly Improved The primary analysis focused on 109 patients with stage II to IIIA disease and demonstrated a substantial benefit for those receiving selpercatinib. Investigator-assessed event-free survival strongly favored the treatment group, with a hazard ratio of 0.17. After a median follow-up period of 24 months, the event-free survival rate at two years reached 92% among patients treated with Retevmo, compared with 61% for those receiving placebo. Median event-free survival had not yet been reached in the selpercatinib group at the time of analysis, whereas patients in the placebo arm recorded a median event-free survival of 31.8 months. Safety Profile Remained Manageable The safety findings were broadly consistent with the known profile of the drug. Among adverse events classified as Grade 3 or higher, increased alanine aminotransferase levels were reported in 17% of patients receiving selpercatinib, compared with 1% in the placebo group. Elevated aspartate aminotransferase levels occurred in 19% of patients treated with Retevmo, versus 3% among placebo recipients. According to Lilly, these side effects were manageable through dose adjustments and treatment modifications. Findings to Be Presented at ASCO and Published in Medical Journal The company said the results will be presented at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago and published simultaneously in the New England Journal of Medicine. The trial represents the first randomized Phase 3 study to investigate a selective RET kinase inhibitor as adjuvant therapy for patients with RET fusion-positive NSCLC. Lilly Preparing Regulatory Submissions Following the positive outcome of LIBRETTO-432, Lilly intends to submit the data package to health regulators around the world for review. If approved, Retevmo could become an important treatment option for patients with early-stage RET fusion-positive lung cancer, potentially helping to reduce the risk of recurrence after surgery or radiation therapy and improving long-term outcomes in this genetically defined patient population.

PR Newswire (US) Phase 3 LIBRETTO-432 results establish RET fusions alongside EGFR mutations and ALK fusions as biomarkers in early-stage lung cancer that are associated with dramatic treatment outcomes, underscoring the importance of comprehensive biomarker testing across all stages of disease These data will be published in the New England Journal of Medicine and simultaneously presented during the Plenary Session at the 2026 ASCO Annual MeetingINDIANAPOLIS, May 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced results from the Phase 3 LIBRETTO-432 clinical trial of Retevmo (selpercatinib) as adjuvant therapy versus placebo in patients with early-stage (IB-IIIA) rearranged during transfection (RET) fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a highly statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in investigator-assessed event-free survival (EFS) with selpercatinib reducing the risk of disease recurrence or death by 83% versus placebo in the primary analysis population.These data will be simultaneously published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented during the Plenary Session at the 2026 ASCO Annual Meeting taking place in Chicago, Illinois, as well as featured in the meeting's press program."Patients with early-stage RET fusion-positive lung cancer face high recurrence risk, yet unlike those with EGFR or ALK alterations, have lacked a proven targeted treatment option," said Jonathan Goldman, M.D., Professor of Medicine and Director of Clinical Trials at University of California, Los Angeles. "These LIBRETTO-432 results provide strong evidence that treating with selpercatinib after surgery or radiation can significantly lower that risk. The magnitude of benefit seen from adjuvant treatment with selpercatinib reinforces that comprehensive genomic testing at diagnosis is essential for all people with lung cancer and could lead to changes in clinical practice for treating early-stage RET-positive disease."LIBRETTO-432 is the first and only randomized Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a selective RET kinase inhibitor as adjuvant therapy in this population. The trial enrolled 151 patients who were randomized 1:1 to receive selpercatinib 160mg twice daily or placebo for up to three years following completion of definitive radiotherapy or surgery with curative intent with or without adjuvant chemotherapy.At a median follow-up of 24 months, investigator-assessed EFS in the primary analysis population (patients with stage II-IIIA disease, n=109) was significantly improved with selpercatinib compared to placebo (HR: 0.17 [95% CI, 0.06 to 0.51]; p

Eli Lilly shares edge higher after CVS expands coverage for Zepbound obesity drug (LLY)May 28, 2026 8:50 AM
IH Market News Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) shares gained about 1% in premarket trading Thursday after CVS Caremark announced it would add the company’s obesity treatment Zepbound to its preferred drug formulary. Lilly said the decision means all three of the largest pharmacy benefit managers in the United States will now provide coverage for the company’s full obesity medicine portfolio. Under the updated coverage plans, CVS Caremark Commercial Template coverage for Foundayo will begin on June 1. Existing Zepbound patients are expected to maintain coverage immediately, with broader access across template plans scheduled to roll out by October 1. The company said eligible commercially insured patients may be able to access both medications for as little as $25 per month. Lilly also noted that Medicare Part D beneficiaries could qualify to pay $50 monthly for obesity medications beginning July 1 through the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge program. Foundayo is currently the only once-daily GLP-1 oral medication approved for weight management that can be taken without restrictions related to meals or water intake. Zepbound remains the most widely prescribed injectable weight-management treatment in the U.S. “For too long, effective obesity treatment has been out of reach for the people who need it,” said Ilya Yuffa, executive vice president and president of Lilly USA and global customer capabilities. The decision marks a notable shift for CVS Caremark, which had previously excluded Zepbound from its preferred drug list. The expanded formulary coverage is expected to significantly increase access to Lilly’s obesity therapies for insured patients across the United States.

The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that orforglipron is superior to placebo in body weight reduction from baseline after 72 weeks.ATTAIN-2 (NCT05872620) is a Phase 3, 72-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of various doses of orforglipron with placebo in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes. The trial randomized over 1,600 participants across the U.S., Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, Czechia, Germany, Greece, India, South Korea and Puerto Rico to receive various doses of orforglipron or placebo along with healthy diet and physical activity. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that orforglipron is superior to placebo in mean body weight change from baseline at 72 weeks.Supported by the rigorous ATTAIN clinical trial program, Foundayo, along with diet and exercise, was proven to help people lose weight and keep it off. In the ATTAIN-1 trial, individuals taking the highest dose of Foundayo and who stayed on treatment lost an average of 27.3 pounds (12.4%) compared to 2.2 pounds (0.9%) with placebo.4 Participants taking the highest dose of Foundayo, regardless of trial completion on study drug, lost an average of 25 pounds (11.1%), compared to 5.3 pounds (2.1%) with placebo.5About SURMOUNT-1
Throughout the 72 week clinical trial, people who took Zepbound sustained weight loss—whether taking the 5 mg, 10 mg, or 15 mg dose along with diet and exercise. In a 72-week study of adults without diabetes, average weight loss was 15.0% (34 lbs) for 5 mg, 19.5% (44 lbs) for 10 mg, 20.9% (48 lbs) for 15 mg, and 3.1% (7 lbs) for placebo. Average starting weights were 226.8 lbs for 5 mg, 233.3 lbs for 10 mg, 232.8 lbs for 15 mg, and 231.0 lbs for placebo.INDICATIONS AND SAFETY SUMMARY WITH WARNINGS

Lilly announces three acquisitions to build infectious disease portfolioMay 26, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US) Agreements with Curevo, LimmaTech Biologics and Vaccine Company address viral pathogens linked to long-term neurological and oncological risk, and bacterial pathogens that are difficult to prevent or treatAcquisitions build on Lilly's infectious disease legacy and reinforce its commitment to prevention strategies that reduce the long-term burden of serious diseaseINDIANAPOLIS, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced agreements to acquire three companies, Curevo Inc. (Curevo), LimmaTech Biologics AG (LimmaTech Biologics), and Vaccine Company, Inc. (Vaccine Company), that expand its research and development efforts into infectious disease. The transactions advance Lilly's strategy of investing in differentiated technology platforms to address significant health problems.For 150 years, Lilly has advanced medicines to address the world's most pressing health challenges. Infectious diseases remain a major source of global morbidity, both in their acute presentation and in the downstream health consequences of primary infection.  "These acquisitions reflect a deliberate strategy to prevent disease at its source rather than treat its consequences," said Daniel M. Skovronsky, M.D., Ph.D., chief scientific and product officer, and president, Lilly Research Laboratories. "Decades of evidence now link common infections to diseases that potentially emerge years later, including neurological disease, cancer and infertility. And as antimicrobial resistance erodes our ability to treat bacterial infections, vaccines are increasingly the only path to prevention. Combining these companies' platforms and teams with Lilly's global scale positions us to change that trajectory."Curevo's lead product candidate is amezosvatein, an adjuvanted subunit vaccine for the prevention of shingles in adults. While the current standard of care for shingles prevention is effective, tolerability challenges can limit the overall vaccination rates and contribute to second-dose hesitancy, leaving a meaningful portion of patients with reduced or no protection against shingles and its long-term consequences. Amezosvatein was engineered with a next-generation synthetic adjuvant to overcome this problem. In a Phase 2 clinical trial head-to-head against the standard of care, amezosvatein matched immune response across all primary endpoints and reduced side effects such as activity-limiting fatigue, chills, and pain at the injection site by more than half. Given growing evidence linking shingles to elevated risk of stroke, and that shingles vaccination is associated with reduced dementia risk, a meaningfully better-tolerated vaccine could expand the reach of shingles prevention and reduce these long-term risks at a population level.Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly will acquire Curevo and Curevo shareholders could receive up to $1.5 billion in cash, inclusive of an upfront payment and subsequent payment upon achievement of a specified milestone.LimmaTech Biologics is developing vaccines against bacterial pathogens for which rising antimicrobial resistance is steadily closing therapeutic options, including Staphylococcus aureus, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Chlamydia trachomatis. The company's proprietary platform is designed to generate broad, durable immune responses against complex bacterial targets by targeting the toxins and superantigens that drive disease. LimmaTech's lead program, LTB-SA7, is in Phase 1 development as a vaccine against S. aureus, the leading cause of surgical-site infection.  The company's preclinical pipeline is pursuing additional bacterial pathogens, including those that drive infertility and other long-term consequences of infection that fall disproportionately on women. A vaccine-led prevention strategy could change the trajectory of diseases that are becoming increasingly difficult to treat.Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly will acquire LimmaTech for up to $780 million in cash, inclusive of an upfront payment and additional potential payments based upon the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones.Vaccine Company is developing proprietary In Vivo Nanoparticle (IVN) technologies designed to enable the antigen display known to elicit durable immune responses associated with virus-like particle vaccines, while avoiding the manufacturing burden of traditional VLP production. The company is advancing a broad preclinical pipeline spanning multiple viral pathogens; the lead program applies this technology to Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) with a five-antigen Phase 1-ready candidate. Given the growing evidence linking EBV to multiple sclerosis and several malignancies, a prophylactic vaccine could prevent not only acute infectious mononucleosis but also the long-term neurological and oncological consequences that may follow infection.Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly will acquire Vaccine Company and Vaccine Company shareholders could receive up to $1.55 billion in cash, inclusive of an upfront payment and subsequent payments upon achievement of certain clinical and commercial milestones.These transactions are subject to customary closing conditions, including expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Lilly will determine the accounting treatment of these transactions following closing in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These transactions will thereafter be reflected in Lilly's financial results and financial guidance.About Lilly

This press release contains forward-looking statements (as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) about Lilly's proposed acquisitions of Curevo, LimmaTech and Vaccine Company (collectively, the "Companies"), the anticipated benefits of the proposed acquisitions, potential contingent consideration amounts and terms, the applicable parties' ability to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the proposed acquisitions, each Company's product candidates and ongoing clinical and preclinical development, Lilly's infectious disease business and strategy, expansion of research and development efforts in infectious diseases and potential development of programs, product candidates and medicines to address infectious diseases, and the accounting treatment of the proposed acquisitions under GAAP and their potential impact on Lilly's financial results and financial guidance, and reflects Lilly's current beliefs and expectations. However, as with any such undertaking, there are substantial risks and uncertainties in closing and implementing the proposed acquisitions and in the process of drug research, development, and commercialization. Among other things, there can be no guarantee that Lilly will close the proposed acquisitions or realize the expected benefits of the proposed acquisitions, that the proposed acquisitions will achieve the results discussed in this release, or that the proposed acquisitions will yield commercially successful products.

A single dose of Lilly's PCSK9 base editor, VERVE-102, reduced PCSK9 by up to 88% and LDL-C by up to 62%, with durable effects supporting its potential as a one-time treatment for hypercholesterolemiaMay 25, 2026 8:45 AM
PR Newswire (US) In the Phase 1b Heart-2 trial, a single intravenous infusion of VERVE-102 produced dose-dependent lowering of PCSK9 and LDL-C, with both reductions sustained over follow-up of up to 18 months in participants at high risk for cardiovascular diseaseVERVE-102 is designed to mimic the protective effect of naturally occurring loss-of-function variants in PCSK9, which are associated with markedly lower lifetime risk of coronary heart diseaseLilly plans to begin enrolling the Phase 2 clinical study of VERVE-102 by the end of this yearINDIANAPOLIS, May 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced positive Phase 1b Heart-2 study results for VERVE-102, an investigational in vivo base editing medicine designed to durably turn off the PCSK9 gene in the liver and lower blood low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) following a single infusion. The Heart-2 trial is evaluating VERVE-102 in adults with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) or premature coronary artery disease (CAD). These data were presented as a late-breaking oral presentation at the European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) Congress and simultaneously published in The New England Journal of Medicine.In the Heart-2 study, a single intravenous infusion of VERVE-102 resulted in meaningful lowering of circulating PCSK9 protein and corresponding reductions in LDL-C across all evaluated dose levels. In this interim analysis of 35 participants, a single dose of VERVE-102 resulted in dose-dependent mean reductions in PCSK9 ranging from 51% to 88%, at the lowest 0.3 mg/kg dose to the highest 1.0 mg/kg dose, respectively. Corresponding mean reductions in LDL-C were 9% (0.3 mg/kg), 44% (0.45 mg/kg), 45% (0.6 mg/kg), 33% (0.7 mg/kg), 51% (0.8 mg/kg), and 62% (1.0 mg/kg). These reductions were sustained over time, with durability observed for up to 18 months following treatment."These early data give us encouraging evidence that in vivo base editing of PCSK9 may offer a novel approach to achieving substantial and durable LDL-C reduction with a one-time treatment," said Riyaz S. Patel, M.D., cardiologist at Barts Health NHS Trust and professor of cardiology at University College London. "Many patients with elevated LDL-C struggle to achieve sustained control despite ongoing efforts with the medicines available today, putting them at significant risk for cardiovascular events. With coronary artery disease still one of the leading causes of death worldwide, the need for new approaches is real."VERVE-102 was well tolerated across all dose levels with no treatment-related serious adverse events (AEs) and no dose-limiting toxicities reported. AEs related to VERVE-102 included low-grade infusion-related reactions and fatigue. All participants received the full planned dose, and no participant withdrew from the study."Twenty years ago, genetics showed us that people born with PCSK9 naturally turned off have low LDL-C for life and are remarkably protected from heart attack, yet today's chronic therapies struggle to deliver this lifelong lowering," said Sekar Kathiresan, M.D., Lilly senior vice president, and co-founder of Verve Therapeutics. "The Heart-2 results provide early clinical evidence that a single dose of VERVE-102 may mimic the LDL-C lowering effects of PCSK9 cardioprotective variants, potentially transforming cardiovascular care from chronic management to a one-time treatment."The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track designation for VERVE-102 to reduce LDL-C in participants with hyperlipidemia and high lifetime cardiovascular risk. HeFH affects approximately 1 in 200 to 250 people and is characterized by lifelong elevations in LDL-C, leading to premature cardiovascular disease, including CAD.1,2 Worldwide, CAD remains a leading cause of death, affecting more than 300 million people.3Lilly plans to initiate the Phase 2 clinical study of VERVE-102 by the end of this year.About VERVE-102 and VERVE trial programs
VERVE-102, an investigational in vivo base editing medicine, is designed to be a single-course treatment that turns off the PCSK9 gene in the liver and durably reduces disease-driving LDL-C. VERVE-102 consists of a messenger RNA encoding an adenine base editor and a guide RNA (gRNA) targeting the PCSK9 gene. Both are encapsulated in a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) and administered as a single intravenous infusion over approximately four hours. VERVE-102 uses Verve's proprietary GalNAc-LNP delivery technology, which is designed to allow the LNP to access liver cells using either the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) or the asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR).In addition to the PCSK9 program, the Pulse-1 Phase 1b trial for VERVE-201, an investigational in vivo gene editing medicine targeting the ANGPTL3 gene, is ongoing.About Heart-2
Heart-2 is an ongoing open-label, single-ascending dose Phase 1b study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamic effects of VERVE-102 in adults with HeFH or premature CAD who require additional lowering of LDL-C, despite maximally tolerated oral lipid lowering therapy. This interim analysis included 35 participants who received a single intravenous infusion of VERVE-102 across six dose cohorts (0.3 mg/kg, 0.45 mg/kg, 0.6 mg/kg, 0.7 mg/kg, 0.8 mg/kg and 1.0 mg/kg). All participants received the full planned dose and were followed for at least 28 days, with a subset now followed for up to 18 months. HeFH is diagnosed based on high LDL-C levels, a personal or family history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, physical exam features and/or mutations identified in certain genes. Premature CAD is defined as evidence of CAD (heart attack, coronary revascularization procedure, or coronary atherosclerosis on imaging) occurring in men 55 years old or younger or women 65 years old or younger. Participants are expected to enroll in a long-term follow-up study for up to 15 years. As of the February 27, 2026, data cut-off, the median follow-up duration was approximately nine months, with 15 participants followed for at least one year.References

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including customary regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second half of 2026.About Retevmo
Retevmo (selpercatinib, formerly known as LOXO-292) (pronounced reh-TEHV-moh) is a highly selective and potent RET kinase inhibitor with central nervous system (CNS) activity. Retevmo may affect both tumor cells and healthy cells, which can result in side effects. RET-driver alterations are predominantly mutually exclusive from other oncogenic drivers. Retevmo is a U.S. FDA-approved oral prescription medicine, 120 mg or 160 mg dependent on weight (500 ms was measured in 7% of patients and an increase in the QTcF interval of at least 60 ms over baseline was measured in 20% of patients. Retevmo has not been studied in patients with clinically significant active cardiovascular disease or recent myocardial infarction. Monitor patients who are at significant risk of developing QTc prolongation, including patients with known long QT syndromes, clinically significant bradyarrhythmias, and severe or uncontrolled heart failure. Assess QT interval, electrolytes, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) at baseline and periodically during treatment, adjusting frequency based upon risk factors including diarrhea. Correct hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and hypocalcemia prior to initiating Retevmo and during treatment. Monitor the QT interval more frequently when Retevmo is concomitantly administered with strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors or drugs known to prolong QTc interval. Withhold and dose reduce or permanently discontinue Retevmo based on the severity.Serious, including fatal, hemorrhagic events can occur with Retevmo. Grade ≥3 hemorrhagic events occurred in 3.1% of patients treated with Retevmo including 4 (0.5%) patients with fatal hemorrhagic events, including cerebral hemorrhage (n=2), tracheostomy site hemorrhage (n=1), and hemoptysis (n=1). Permanently discontinue Retevmo in patients with severe or life-threatening hemorrhage.Retevmo can cause hypersensitivity, including severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. All grade hypersensitivity occurred in 6% of patients receiving Retevmo, including Grade 3 in 1.9%. The median time to onset was 1.9 weeks (range: 5 days to 2 years). Signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity included fever, rash and arthralgias or myalgias with concurrent decreased platelets or transaminitis. Stevens-Johnson Syndrome has been observed in the post-marketing setting. Discontinue Retevmo in patients with Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. If hypersensitivity occurs, withhold Retevmo and begin corticosteroids at a dose of 1 mg/kg prednisone (or equivalent). Upon resolution of the event, resume Retevmo at a reduced dose and increase the dose of Retevmo by 1 dose level each week as tolerated until reaching the dose taken prior to onset of hypersensitivity. Continue steroids until patient reaches target dose and then taper. Permanently discontinue Retevmo for recurrent hypersensitivity.Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) occurred in 0.6% of patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma receiving Retevmo. Patients may be at risk of TLS if they have rapidly growing tumors, a high tumor burden, renal dysfunction, or dehydration. Closely monitor patients at risk, consider appropriate prophylaxis including hydration, and treat as clinically indicated.Impaired wound healing can occur in patients who receive drugs that inhibit the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway. Therefore, Retevmo has the potential to adversely affect wound healing. Withhold Retevmo for at least 7 days prior to elective surgery. Do not administer for at least 2 weeks following major surgery and until adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of Retevmo after resolution of wound healing complications has not been established.Retevmo can cause hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism occurred in 13% of patients treated with Retevmo; all reactions were Grade 1 or 2. Hypothyroidism occurred in 13% of patients (50/373) with thyroid cancer and 13% of patients (53/423) with other solid tumors including NSCLC. Monitor thyroid function before treatment with Retevmo and periodically during treatment. Treat with thyroid hormone replacement as clinically indicated. Withhold Retevmo until clinically stable or permanently discontinue Retevmo based on severity.Based on data from animal reproduction studies and its mechanism of action, Retevmo can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Administration of selpercatinib to pregnant rats during organogenesis at maternal exposures that were approximately equal to those observed at the recommended human dose of 160 mg twice daily resulted in embryolethality and malformations. Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential and males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with Retevmo and for 1 week after the last dose. There are no data on the presence of selpercatinib or its metabolites in human milk or on their effects on the breastfed child or on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed children, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with Retevmo and for 1 week after the last dose.Severe adverse reactions (Grade 3-4) occurring in ≥20% of patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-001, were hypertension (20%), diarrhea (5%), prolonged QT interval (4.8%), dyspnea (3.1%), fatigue (3.1%), hemorrhage (2.6%), abdominal pain (2.5%), vomiting (1.8%), headache (1.4%), nausea (1.1%), constipation (0.8%), edema (0.8%), rash (0.6%), and arthralgia (0.3%).Severe adverse reactions (Grade 3-4) occurring in ≥15% of patients who received Retevmo or chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab in LIBRETTO-431 were hypertension (20% vs 3.1%), electrocardiogram QT prolonged (9% vs 0%), fatigue (3.2% vs 5%), edema (2.5% vs 0%), rash (1.9% vs 1.0%), diarrhea (1.3% vs 2.0%), abdominal pain (0.6% vs 2.0%), pyrexia (0.6% vs 0%), COVID19 infection (0.6% vs 0%), constipation (0% vs 1.0%), nausea (0% vs 1.0%), vomiting (0% vs 1.0%), and decreased appetite (0% vs 2.0%).Serious adverse reactions occurred in 44% of patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-001. The most frequently reported serious adverse reactions (in ≥2% of patients) were pneumonia, pleural effusion, abdominal pain, hemorrhage, hypersensitivity, dyspnea, and hyponatremia. Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 3% of patients in LIBRETTO-001; fatal adverse reactions included sepsis (n=6), respiratory failure (n=5), hemorrhage (n=4), pneumonia (n=3), pneumonitis (n=2), cardiac arrest (n=2), sudden death (n=1), and cardiac failure (n=1).Serious adverse reactions occurred in 35% of patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-431. The most frequently reported serious adverse reactions (≥2% of patients) were pleural effusion and abnormal hepatic function. Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 4.4% of patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-431; fatal adverse reactions included myocardial infarction (n=2), respiratory failure (n=2), cardiac arrest, malnutrition, and sudden death (n=1 each).Common adverse reactions (all grades) occurring in ≥20% of patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-001, were edema (49%), diarrhea (47%), fatigue (46%), dry mouth (43%), hypertension (41%), abdominal pain (34%), rash (33%), constipation (33%), nausea (31%), headache (28%), cough (24%), vomiting (22%), dyspnea (22%), hemorrhage (22%), arthralgia (21%), and prolonged QT interval (21%).Common adverse reactions (all grades) occurring in ≥15% of patients who received Retevmo or chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab in LIBRETTO-431 were hypertension (48% vs 7%), diarrhea (44% vs 24%), edema (41% vs 28%), dry mouth (39% vs 6%), rash (33% vs 30%), fatigue (32% vs 50%), abdominal pain (25% vs 19%), musculoskeletal pain (25% vs 28%), constipation (22% vs 40%), electrocardiogram QT prolonged (20% vs 1.0%), COVID19 infection (19% vs 18%), stomatitis (18% vs 16%), decreased appetite (17% vs 34%), nausea (13% vs 44%), vomiting (13% vs 23%), and pyrexia (13% vs 23%).Laboratory abnormalities (all grades ≥20%; Grade 3-4) worsening from baseline in patients who received Retevmo in LIBRETTO-001, were increased AST (59%; 11%), decreased calcium (59%; 5.7%), increased ALT (56%; 12%), decreased albumin (56%; 2.3%), increased glucose (53%; 2.8%), decreased lymphocytes (52%; 20%), increased creatinine (47%; 2.4%), decreased sodium (42%; 11%), increased alkaline phosphatase (40%; 3.4%), decreased platelets (37%; 3.2%), increased total cholesterol (35%; 1.7%), increased potassium (34%; 2.7%), decreased glucose (34%; 1.0%), decreased magnesium (33%; 0.6%), increased bilirubin (30%; 2.8%), decreased hemoglobin (28%; 3.5%), and decreased neutrophils (25%; 3.2%).Laboratory abnormalities (all grades ≥20%; Grade 3-4) worsening from baseline in patients who received Retevmo or chemotherapy with or without pembrolizumab in LIBRETTO-431 were increased ALT (81%; 21% vs 63%; 4.1%), increased AST (77%; 10% vs 46%; 0%), decreased calcium (53%; 1.9% vs 24%; 1.0%), decreased platelets (53%; 3.2% vs 39%; 5%), decreased lymphocytes (53%; 8% vs 64%; 15%), decreased neutrophils (53%; 2.0% vs 58%; 11%), increased bilirubin (52%; 1.3% vs 9%; 0%), increased alkaline phosphatase (35%; 1.3% vs 22%; 0%), decreased sodium (31%; 3.2% vs 41%; 2.1%), decreased albumin (25%; 0% vs 5%; 0%), increased blood creatinine (23%; 0% vs 21%; 0%), decreased hemoglobin (21%; 0% vs 91%; 5%), decreased potassium (17%; 1.3% vs 15%; 1.0%), and decreased magnesium (16%; 0.6% vs 8%; 0%).Concomitant use of acid-reducing agents decreases selpercatinib plasma concentrations which may reduce Retevmo anti-tumor activity. Avoid concomitant use of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), histamine-2 (H2) receptor antagonists, and locally acting antacids with Retevmo. If coadministration cannot be avoided, take Retevmo with food (with a PPI) or modify its administration time (with a H2 receptor antagonist or a locally acting antacid).Concomitant use of strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors increases selpercatinib plasma concentrations which may increase the risk of Retevmo adverse reactions including QTc interval prolongation. Avoid concomitant use of strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors with Retevmo. If concomitant use of a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor cannot be avoided, reduce the Retevmo dosage as recommended and monitor the QT interval with ECGs more frequently.Concomitant use of strong and moderate CYP3A inducers decreases selpercatinib plasma concentrations which may reduce Retevmo anti-tumor activity. Avoid coadministration of Retevmo with strong and moderate CYP3A inducers.Concomitant use of Retevmo with CYP2C8 and CYP3A substrates increases their plasma concentrations which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates. Avoid coadministration of Retevmo with CYP2C8 and CYP3A substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to increased adverse reactions. If coadministration cannot be avoided, follow recommendations for CYP2C8 and CYP3A substrates provided in their approved product labeling.Retevmo is a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and BCRP inhibitor. Concomitant use of Retevmo with P-gp or BCRP substrates increases their plasma concentrations, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates. Avoid coadministration of Retevmo with P-gp or BCRP substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to increased adverse reactions. If coadministration cannot be avoided, follow recommendations for P-gp and BCRP substrates provided in their approved product labeling.No dosage modification is recommended for patients with mild to severe renal impairment (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [eGFR] ≥15 to 89 mL/min, estimated by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] equation). A recommended dosage has not been established for patients with end-stage renal disease.Reduce the dose when administering Retevmo to patients with severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin greater than 3 to 10 times upper limit of normal [ULN] and any AST). No dosage modification is recommended for patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment.

Verzenio (abemaciclib) is approved to treat people with certain HR+, HER2- breast cancers in the adjuvant and advanced or metastatic setting. Verzenio is the first CDK4/6 inhibitor approved to treat node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer (EBC) patients.4 For HR+, HER2- breast cancer, The National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®) recommends consideration of two years of abemaciclib (Verzenio) added to endocrine therapy as a Category 1 treatment option in the adjuvant setting.5 NCCN® also includes Verzenio plus endocrine therapy as a preferred treatment option for HR+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer.5The collective results of Lilly's clinical development program continue to differentiate Verzenio as a CDK4/6 inhibitor. In high-risk EBC, Verzenio has shown a persistent and deepening benefit beyond the two-year treatment period in the monarchE trial, an adjuvant study designed specifically to investigate a CDK4/6 inhibitor in a node-positive, high-risk EBC population.6 In metastatic breast cancer, Verzenio has demonstrated statistically significant OS in the Phase 3 MONARCH 2 study.7 Verzenio has shown a consistent and generally manageable safety profile across clinical trials.Verzenio is an oral tablet taken twice daily and available in strengths of 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, and 200 mg. Discovered and developed by Lilly researchers, Verzenio was first approved in 2017 and is currently authorized for use in more than 90 countries around the world. For full details on indicated uses of Verzenio in HR+, HER2- breast cancer, please see full Prescribing Information, available at www.Verzenio.com.INDICATIONS FOR VERZENIO
VERZENIO is a kinase inhibitor indicated:in combination with endocrine therapy (tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor) for the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, node-positive, early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence.in combination with an aromatase inhibitor as initial endocrine-based therapy for the treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer.in combination with fulvestrant for the treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following endocrine therapy.as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following endocrine therapy and prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR VERZENIO (abemaciclib)
Severe diarrhea associated with dehydration and infection occurred in patients treated with Verzenio. Across four clinical trials in 3691 patients, diarrhea occurred in 81 to 90% of patients who received Verzenio. Grade 3 diarrhea occurred in 8 to 20% of patients receiving Verzenio. Most patients experienced diarrhea during the first month of Verzenio treatment. The median time to onset of the first diarrhea event ranged from 6 to 8 days; and the median duration of Grade 2 and Grade 3 diarrhea ranged from 6 to 11 days and 5 to 8 days, respectively. Across trials, 19 to 26% of patients with diarrhea required a Verzenio dose interruption and 13 to 23% required a dose reduction.Instruct patients to start antidiarrheal therapy, such as loperamide, at the first sign of loose stools, increase oral fluids, and notify their healthcare provider for further instructions and appropriate follow-up. For Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea, or diarrhea that requires hospitalization, discontinue Verzenio until toxicity resolves to ≤Grade 1, and then resume Verzenio at the next lower dose.Neutropenia, including febrile neutropenia and fatal neutropenic sepsis, occurred in patients treated with Verzenio. Across four clinical trials in 3691 patients, neutropenia occurred in 37 to 46% of patients receiving Verzenio. A Grade ≥3 decrease in neutrophil count (based on laboratory findings) occurred in 19 to 32% of patients receiving Verzenio. Across trials, the median time to first episode of Grade ≥3 neutropenia ranged from 29 to 33 days, and the median duration of Grade ≥3 neutropenia ranged from 11 to 16 days. Febrile neutropenia has been reported in

Eli Lilly shares rise after strong late-stage obesity drug trial results (LLY)May 21, 2026 8:49 AM
IH Market News Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) shares gained around 2% in premarket trading on Thursday after the company released positive late-stage clinical trial results for its experimental obesity treatment retatrutide.The study showed that patients diagnosed with obesity lost an average of 28.3% of their body weight over an 80-week period when treated with the highest 12-milligram dose of retatrutide.More than 45% of participants achieved weight loss of at least 30% during the trial.The results strengthen Eli Lilly’s path toward seeking regulatory approval for the drug, with a potential commercial launch possible next year.The study focused on patients with obesity who did not have diabetes.Retatrutide is the first obesity treatment developed by Lilly that targets three separate hormone receptors simultaneously: GLP-1, which helps suppress appetite; GIP, which supports insulin secretion; and glucagon, which assists with fat burning.Earlier clinical studies suggested the drug could deliver greater weight reduction than Lilly’s injectable obesity medication Zepbound as well as Novo Nordisk’s (NYSE:NVO) Wegovy.The late-stage trial enrolled adults living with obesity or individuals classified as overweight who also had at least one weight-related health condition.Kenneth Custer, president of cardiometabolic health at Eli Lilly, said the 30% weight-loss benchmark “is really a threshold that’s historically been associated with bariatric surgery. To have that available in a medicine is a pretty big deal.”The latest results mark another significant step in Eli Lilly’s efforts to strengthen its position within the rapidly expanding obesity drug market.Eli Lilly stock priceNovo Nordisk stock price Original: Eli Lilly shares rise after strong late-stage obesity drug trial results (LLY)

Lilly's triple agonist, retatrutide, delivered powerful weight loss in pivotal Phase 3 obesity trialMay 21, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)  In TRIUMPH-1, participants on 12 mg retatrutide lost an average of 70.3 lbs (28.3%) over 80 weeks with 45.3% of participants achieving ≥30% weight loss, a level long associated with bariatric surgery Individuals with a baseline BMI ≥35 who participated in a study extension continued to lose weight, and achieved up to an average of 85.0 lbs (30.3%) weight loss at 104 weeks At the 4 mg dose, reached with only a single escalation step, participants lost an average of 47.2 lbs (19.0%) at 80 weeks with a lower observed discontinuation rate due to adverse events vs. placeboINDIANAPOLIS, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the maker of Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Foundayo (orforglipron), today announced positive topline results from TRIUMPH-1, a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of retatrutide, an investigational, first-in-class GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon triple hormone receptor agonist, in adults with obesity or overweight and at least one weight-related comorbidity and without diabetes. At 80 weeks, all doses of retatrutide (4 mg, 9 mg, and 12 mg) met the primary and key secondary endpoints for obesity, delivering clinically meaningful weight loss."Obesity is a chronic disease, and people living with obesity deserve treatment options that match the complex biology of their neurometabolic disease," said Ania Jastreboff, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Medicine & Pediatrics (Endocrinology) at the Yale School of Medicine, Director of the Yale Obesity Research Center (Y-Weight), and lead investigator. "It was impressive to see that every dose of retatrutide resulted in clinically meaningful weight reduction for nearly all participants, and people with severe obesity on the highest dose lost on average 30% of their body weight over two years. Importantly, treatment with retatrutide not only resulted in robust weight reduction, but also in clear improvements in assessed cardiometabolic health measures. For patients I see in clinic, retatrutide may potentially be a highly impactful future tool to treat their obesity and transform their health trajectory."For the primary endpoint, participants taking retatrutide 9 mg and 12 mg lost an average of 64.4 lbs (25.9%) and 70.3 lbs (28.3%), respectively. Those taking the 4 mg dose of retatrutide, with just a single dose escalation step, lost an average of 47.2 lbs (19.0%). Notably, 65.3% of participants taking retatrutide 12 mg achieved a BMI

Lilly's Foundayo and lower-dose Zepbound helped people maintain weight loss after switching from higher doses of injectable incretin therapy in two late-phase trialsMay 12, 2026 6:01 PM
PR Newswire (US) In ATTAIN-MAINTAIN, participants who transitioned from a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Wegovy (semaglutide) to Foundayo maintained all but 0.9 kg of their previously achieved weight loss on average after one yearIn ATTAIN-MAINTAIN and SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN, participants who switched from Zepbound MTD to Foundayo or reduced the dose of Zepbound to 5 mg, respectively, maintained all but 5.0 kg and 5.6 kg of their previous weight loss on average after one yearParticipants in SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN who remained on Zepbound MTD for an additional year maintained all of their prior weight loss on averageINDIANAPOLIS, May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced detailed results from two late-phase trials showing that people with obesity maintained their weight loss long term with either Foundayo or lower-dose Zepbound after switching from higher doses of injectable incretin therapy. The findings from SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN and ATTAIN-MAINTAIN, were presented at the 33rd European Congress on Obesity (ECO) and published in The Lancet and Nature Medicine, respectively."Weight regain remains one of the biggest challenges in obesity care, and is often the result of treatment interruptions that cause biology to work against patients, undoing the progress they've made," said Louis J. Aronne, M.D., FACP, DABOM, founder and Chair Emeritus of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, former president of The Obesity Society, Fellow of the American College of Physicians, world-renowned obesity specialist and Lilly consultant. "These medicines can be used for long-term maintenance today, and results from SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN and ATTAIN-MAINTAIN provide additional evidence of their potential when switching from higher doses of injectable incretin therapy."In SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN, both Zepbound MTD and Zepbound 5 mg met the primary and all key secondary endpoints, demonstrating weight-loss maintenance after 60-weeks of initial treatment with Zepbound MTD.1,2 The primary endpoint was to demonstrate that continuation of Zepbound either at a reduced 5 mg dose or at MTD was superior to placebo in percent change in body weight at week 112. At week 112, participants continuing treatment with Zepbound MTD preserved all of their prior weight loss, while dose reduction to 5 mg maintained all but 5.6 kg on average.SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN Weight Maintenance Results

"We are encouraged by the results of SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN and ATTAIN-MAINTAIN, which showed that both Zepbound and Foundayo, a once-daily oral GLP-1, provided durable weight-loss maintenance. Lilly is committed to providing people with multiple treatment options as they navigate their weight-loss journey."Across both trials, Foundayo and Zepbound demonstrated safety profiles consistent with prior Phase 3 studies. In ATTAIN-MAINTAIN, the most common adverse events with Foundayo vs. placebo were nausea (18.8% vs. 4.1%), constipation (13.1% vs. 4.1%), vomiting (8.3% vs. 3.4%) or diarrhea (7.4% vs. 7.5%). Discontinuation rates due to adverse events for patients randomized to placebo or Foundayo were 4.8% (Foundayo from Wegovy), 7.6% (placebo from Wegovy), 7.2% (Foundayo from Zepbound) and 6.3% (placebo from Zepbound). In SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN, the most common adverse events during the maintenance period with Zepbound MTD and Zepbound 5 mg vs. placebo were diarrhea (7.2% and 4.9% vs. 1.1%), vomiting (6.5% and 0.7% vs. 0%) and nausea (5.8% and 4.2% vs. 2.2%). Discontinuation rates due to adverse events during the maintenance period with Zepbound MTD, Zepbound 5 mg and placebo were 0%, 0.7% and 0%, respectively.About Zepbound
Zepbound (tirzepatide) is a once-weekly dual GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptor and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. Zepbound is a single molecule that activates the body's receptors for GIP and GLP-1, which are natural incretin hormones. Both GIP and GLP-1 receptors are found in areas of the human brain important for appetite regulation. Zepbound decreases calorie intake, and the effects are likely mediated by affecting appetite. Studies of tirzepatide in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and in morbidity/mortality in obesity (MMO) are ongoing.Tirzepatide has been approved by the U.S. FDA as Mounjaro for adults with type 2 diabetes to improve glycemic control, and as Zepbound for adults with obesity, or some adults who are overweight and also have at least one weight-related medical problem, to lose weight and keep it off. Additionally, Zepbound is FDA-approved to treat adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and obesity. Tirzepatide is also approved as Mounjaro in some countries outside the U.S. for adults with type 2 diabetes, obesity or those who are overweight who also have a weight-related comorbid condition. Both Mounjaro and Zepbound should be used in combination with diet and exercise.About the SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN trial
SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN (NCT06047548) was a 112-week, Phase 3b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of Zepbound (tirzepatide) versus placebo for maintenance of body weight reduction in adults with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities, without type 2 diabetes. The study enrolled 441 participants, all of whom received open-label tirzepatide during a 60-week weight-loss period. Prior to randomization at week 60, all participants received open-label Zepbound at their maximum tolerated dose (10 mg or 15 mg), and those who achieved at least 5% weight loss and tolerated tirzepatide were then randomized in a 3:3:2 ratio to Zepbound 5 mg, Zepbound MTD, or placebo for a 52-week maintenance period.The primary endpoint was to demonstrate that continuation of tirzepatide either at a reduced 5 mg dose or at MTD is superior to placebo in percent change in body weight at week 112. For the primary endpoint, those who stayed on Zepbound MTD lost 25.2 kg (22.4%), while those who reduced to the 5 mg dose of Zepbound lost 19.2 kg (17.0%) from baseline after 60 weeks of initial weight loss and 52 weeks of maintenance.About Foundayo3
Foundayo (orforglipron) is FDA-approved for adults with obesity, or some adults with overweight who also have weight-related medical problems to reduce excess body weight and maintain weight reduction long term, alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Foundayo is a once-daily small molecule (non-peptide) oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that can be taken any time of the day without restrictions on food and water intake. Orforglipron was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and licensed by Lilly in 2018. In addition to chronic weight management, orforglipron is being studied as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, osteoarthritis knee pain, hypertension, peripheral artery disease and stress urinary incontinence.About ATTAIN-MAINTAIN trial and ATTAIN clinical trial program
ATTAIN-MAINTAIN (NCT06584916) consisted of two 52-week, Phase 3b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cohorts comparing the efficacy and safety of once-daily Foundayo (orforglipron) for investigational use versus placebo for maintenance of body weight reduction in adults with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities who previously completed the SURMOUNT-5 head-to-head trial. The ATTAIN-MAINTAIN trial randomized 376 participants across the U.S. in a 3:2 ratio to receive either Foundayo MTD 14.5 mg or 17.2 mg or placebo, as an adjunct to healthy diet and physical activity. This trial was conducted using an investigational formulation of Foundayo at dosages equivalent to Foundayo tablets.The primary endpoint was to demonstrate that Foundayo is superior to placebo in the percent maintenance of body weight reduction in participants who achieved weight plateau with either Zepbound or Wegovy in the SURMOUNT-5 trial. For the primary endpoint, participants who switched from Wegovy or Zepbound to Foundayo, respectively, maintained 82.4% and 78.0% of their previously achieved weight loss after one year. Weight plateau was defined as

In honor of its 150th anniversary, Eli Lilly and Company commits to support community organizations aiming to provide 500,000 meals and cold storage for 150 food pantriesMay 12, 2026 12:00 PM
PR Newswire (US) Through charitable support of HATCH, United Way Worldwide, United Way of Central Indiana and the Pacers Foundation, the initiative supports efforts to expand access to protein-rich food across communities nationwide, including the creation of infrastructure to deliver an estimated five million meals annually for years to come.INDIANAPOLIS, May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced an initiative to support nationwide nutritious food distribution as part of the company's 150th anniversary, through charitable support of trusted community organizations in the United States. With Lilly's support, community organizations will be able to distribute approximately 500,000 meals to those in need across 15 communities.  Lilly's support will also help one of these organizations build long-term cold storage infrastructure at 150 food pantries nationwide — equipment that will support an estimated five million protein-rich meals annually.The initiative reflects Lilly's belief that food is medicine — and that access to nutritious food makes health possible. Through charitable support of HATCH, United Way Worldwide, United Way of Central Indiana, and the Pacers Foundation, the initiative supports two areas of nonprofit work: the community organizations' immediate nutritious food distribution efforts, and HATCH's development of long-term cold storage infrastructure at food pantries that will enable them to store and serve protein-rich meals year-round."As we mark 150 years, we're focused on what comes next — not just in medicine, but in how we advance health. Access to nutritious food is foundational. We're proud to support the organizations doing this work — including their efforts to build infrastructure that feeds families long after this anniversary year," said Melissa Coe, associate vice president for social impact and community engagement, Lilly.Lilly is providing charitable support to HATCH, an Indiana-based nonprofit with expertise in charitable protein distribution and cold storage infrastructure. With Lilly's support, HATCH will obtain and donate commercial-grade refrigeration systems to 150 food pantries — addressing a significant protein-access gap and enabling an estimated five million protein-rich meals annually to be provided to those in need, creating impact long after Lilly's anniversary moment."Without the right infrastructure, it's hard to get nutritious food to families in need consistently.

Lilly commits additional $4.5 billion across Indiana manufacturing sites, opens first dedicated genetic medicine facilityMay 6, 2026 9:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Lilly's capital commitments to expand manufacturing in its home state now total $21 billion since 2020Lilly Lebanon Advanced Therapies opens as company's first dedicated genetic medicine manufacturing facilityLEBANON, Ind., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced an additional $4.5 billion investment across two of its three Lebanon sites—bringing the company's total Indiana capital expansion commitments since 2020 to more than $21 billion. Lilly's evolving pipeline, as well as anticipated demand for its medicines, prompted this additional commitment. The investment will incorporate new process designs and technologies at Lilly Lebanon API, one of the company's future active pharmaceutical ingredient sites, as well as Lilly Lebanon Advanced Therapies, its first dedicated genetic medicine manufacturing facility opening today.Lilly Lebanon Advanced Therapies is designed to support both clinical and commercial production of advanced therapies that target disease at the genetic level and will include a full spectrum of genetic medicine modalities from research-stage development through large-scale commercial supply. Designing and building for these modalities required developing new manufacturing processes without established commercial precedent. This facility is the first of three planned sites on the Lebanon campus, which will also include Lilly Lebanon API and the Lilly Medicine Foundry.Lebanon, Indiana, is the cornerstone of Lilly's domestic manufacturing buildout. In 2024, Lilly announced plans to make both Zepbound® (tirzepatide) and Mounjaro® (tirzepatide), the most prescribed injectable medications for weight management1 and type 2 diabetes2 respectively, at its Lebanon API site. Today's investment expands that commitment further, including planned production of Foundayo™ (orforglipron), Lilly's first FDA-approved, once-daily pill for weight loss that can be taken without food or water restrictions,3 and retatrutide, an investigational triple hormone receptor agonist in late-stage development for obesity and cardiometabolic disease."Lilly's legacy of firsts in Indiana continues today—and the best measure of that legacy is what we do next," said David A. Ricks, Lilly chair and CEO. "From genetic medicines that could one day prevent disease at its source, to Foundayo, a pill making weight loss treatment accessible to millions, we are not just discovering the medicines of the future—we are building the world's most advanced plants to make them. When our Lebanon API site opens in 2027, it will be the largest API production site in U.S. history, a commitment we chose to build here, at home.""This expansion reflects the strength of a long-standing partnership between Lilly and the state of Indiana – one that continues to deliver real results for Hoosiers," said Governor Mike Braun. "With this investment in Lebanon and across the state, Indiana is reinforcing its position as a prime destination for life sciences and advanced manufacturing, spanning innovation, production and global distribution. Together, we are helping lead the future of medicine while creating high-quality jobs and new opportunities for our communities."Lilly's manufacturing investment extends well beyond its campus walls. According to a report that will be released next week by Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, Indiana Business Research Center, "Measuring Lilly's Economic and Civic Contributions in Indiana," Lilly accounts for 70% of Indiana's pharmaceutical GDP and every Lilly job supports more than two additional jobs across the state. Further, the company estimates that for every dollar it spends in the area, up to four dollars in additional local economic activity is generated."Findings from the Kelley School's Indiana Business Research Center report demonstrate Lilly's investments in Indiana are transforming communities across the state in meaningful and far-reaching ways," IU President Pamela Whitten said. "Lilly's sustained investments since 2020 underscore the growing strength of Indiana's life sciences sector. Progress at this scale is possible only through robust partnerships, and Indiana University is moving with purpose alongside Lilly to advance innovation that improves health, prepares a world-class workforce and drives economic vitality."Lilly's U.S. capital expansion commitments since 2020 total more than $50 billion, investments made possible thanks to policies that promote domestic manufacturing. The company plans to break ground on several of its recently announced U.S. manufacturing sites this year.  Optional Quote for Media:"Today's announcement is a milestone for the City of Lebanon, a testament to the strength of our local workforce, and the vitality of our city," said Matt Gentry, Mayor of Lebanon. "Lilly has been an incredible partner, and their decision to further invest in our community ensures that Lebanon will remain at the forefront of the pharmaceutical industry for decades to come. We look forward to the continued growth and the positive impact this will have on our city and the entire state of Indiana."About Zepbound® (tirzepatide) injection

Lilly's Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) is the first and only IL-23p19 to demonstrate durable disease clearance in ulcerative colitis through four yearsMay 5, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US) In LUCENT-3, more than 60% of patients who achieved disease clearance at one year maintained it after four years of continuous Omvoh treatmentDisease clearance is a high clinical bar in UC requiring simultaneous symptomatic, endoscopic and histologic remission INDIANAPOLIS, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- New long-term data from Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) show patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) treated with Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) achieved durable disease clearance through four years of continuous treatment. In the LUCENT-3 open-label extension study, 63.5% of Omvoh-treated patients who achieved disease clearance at one year sustained it at four years. These results will be presented at Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) and represent the first time an interleukin-23p19 (IL-23p19) inhibitor has demonstrated durable disease clearance through four years in people with UC.1 Disease clearance is the simultaneous achievement of symptomatic, endoscopic and histologic remission. In real-world studies, achieving disease clearance has been associated with reduced rates of hospitalizations and surgery.2-3 While previously reported four-year Omvoh data showed durable individual outcomes, this new analysis goes further by evaluating those outcomes together as a composite endpoint, reflecting a higher clinical bar."Ulcerative colitis is a lifelong disease, and every person living with the condition deserves a treatment that can deliver strong and durable disease control, not just symptom relief," said Adrienne Brown, executive vice president and president of Lilly Immunology. "Disease clearance sets that bar higher, and these data show Omvoh-treated patients achieved and sustained it over four years with consistent monthly dosing."Durable Disease Clearance in Ulcerative Colitis
Disease clearance was evaluated among patients who achieved clinical remission with Omvoh at one year in the LUCENT-2 maintenance study and continued treatment in LUCENT-3, an open-label extension study. This analysis, which was not pre-specified, showed 63.5% of Omvoh-treated patients who achieved disease clearance at one year sustained it at four years.* Even at the most stringent measure — requiring endoscopic normalization in addition to symptomatic and histologic remission — 61.3% of patients who achieved it at one year maintained it through four years.†"What makes these data so compelling is that they go beyond individual measures of improvement to show that patients treated with Omvoh achieved disease clearance, with simultaneous symptomatic, endoscopic and histologic remission, maintained over four years," said Jean-Frédéric Colombel, M.D., director of the Susan and Leonard Feinstein Inflammatory Bowel Disease Clinical Center at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. "Until now, disease clearance has not been demonstrated for this length of time for any IL-23p19 therapy in ulcerative colitis. For a progressive disease like ulcerative colitis, that level of durable remission has the potential to change the long-term course of the disease for patients." These findings expand the growing body of long-term data on Omvoh in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), building on previously disclosed four-year results in UC and three-year results in Crohn's disease, including reduction of serious disease-related complications. In LUCENT-3, one UC-related hospitalization and zero UC-related surgeries were reported by patients treated with Omvoh during the three-year long-term extension.4The long-term safety profile in patients with moderately to severely active UC was consistent with the known safety profile of Omvoh with no new safety signals observed. Of patients who completed one year of blinded Omvoh maintenance therapy in LUCENT-2 and continued on to LUCENT-3, 12% reported a serious adverse event, while 7% discontinued treatment due to an adverse event.5 The most common adverse reactions (reported in at least 2% of subjects at a higher frequency than placebo) associated with Omvoh treatment in LUCENT-1 and -2 were upper respiratory tract infections, injection site reactions, arthralgia, rash, headache and herpes viral infection.6Lilly continues to advance the standard of care in gastroenterology through the next wave of immunology innovation, including combination approaches, novel mechanisms and the potential of incretins. In UC, Lilly is pursuing combination studies of mirikizumab aimed at delivering breakthrough induction efficacy while maintaining long-term remission and safety. These include studies with eltrekibart (NCT06598943), a monoclonal antibody that targets neutrophil-driven inflammation, and with zotemtegrast (NCT07186101), an oral a4ß7 integrin inhibitor. The COMMIT-UC (NCT06937086) and COMMIT-CD (NCT06937099) trials are investigating the concomitant use of mirikizumab and an incretin-based therapy in adults with UC or Crohn's disease and obesity or overweight with at least one additional weight-related comorbid condition. In addition, trials of mirikizumab in pediatric patients are ongoing in UC (NCT05784246) and Crohn's disease (NCT05509777).Omvoh has received regulatory approvals for the treatment of moderately to severely active UC and moderately to severely active Crohn's disease in adults and has been approved in 47 countries around the world. In the U.S., Omvoh is also approved for a single-injection maintenance regimen in UC.About the LUCENT Clinical Trial Program
Omvoh was studied in two Phase 3 clinical trials which evaluated the efficacy and safety of Omvoh in adults with moderately to severely active UC, in both biologic-naïve patients and those who had previously failed a biologic or Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi).The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled LUCENT-1 (induction) study included patients with an inadequate response, loss of response, or intolerance to corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologic therapy, or JAKi, and LUCENT-2 (maintenance) evaluated continued treatment versus placebo in patients who achieved a clinical response to Omvoh in LUCENT-1.5LUCENT-3, the single-arm long-term Phase 3 open-label extension of LUCENT-1 and LUCENT-2, evaluated the efficacy and safety of Omvoh in patients with UC for an additional three years of treatment (up to four years total).Using a modified non-responder imputation analysis to handle discontinuation and missing data, 49.7% and 42.8% of patients who achieved disease clearance and stringent disease clearance at one year, respectively, sustained it at four years.1About Omvoh
Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) is an interleukin-23p19 (IL-23p19) antagonist indicated for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease in adults. Omvoh selectively targets the p19 subunit of IL-23 and inhibits the IL-23 pathway. Inflammation due to over-activation of the IL-23 pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.6Omvoh and its delivery device base are trademarks owned by Eli Lilly and Company.Endnotes and References

6Omvoh. Prescribing Information. Lilly USA, LLC.Indications and Usage for Omvoh® (mirikizumab-mrkz) (in the United States)
Omvoh is an interleukin-23 antagonist indicated for adults with:Moderately to severely active ulcerative colitisModerately to severely active Crohn's diseaseImportant Safety Information for Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz)CONTRAINDICATIONS Omvoh is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious hypersensitivity reaction to mirikizumab-mrkz or any of the excipients.WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Reactions
Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis during intravenous infusion, have been reported with Omvoh administration. Infusion-related hypersensitivity reactions, including mucocutaneous erythema and pruritus, were reported during induction. If a severe hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue Omvoh immediately and initiate appropriate treatment.Infections
Omvoh may increase the risk of infection. Do not initiate treatment with Omvoh in patients with a clinically important active infection until the infection resolves or is adequately treated. In patients with a chronic infection or a history of recurrent infection, consider the risks and bene?ts prior to prescribing Omvoh. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important acute or chronic infection occur. If a serious infection develops or an infection is not responding to standard therapy, monitor the patient closely and do not administer Omvoh until the infection resolves.Tuberculosis
Evaluate patients for tuberculosis (TB) infection prior to initiating treatment with Omvoh. Do not administer Omvoh to patients with active TB infection. Initiate treatment of latent TB prior to administering Omvoh. Consider anti-TB therapy prior to initiation of Omvoh in patients with a history of latent or active TB in whom an adequate course of treatment cannot be con?rmed. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of active TB during and after Omvoh treatment. In clinical trials, subjects were excluded if they had evidence of active TB, a history of active TB, or were diagnosed with latent TB at screening.Hepatotoxicity
Drug-induced liver injury in conjunction with pruritus was reported in a clinical trial subject following a longer than recommended induction regimen. Omvoh was discontinued. Liver test abnormalities eventually returned to baseline. Evaluate liver enzymes and bilirubin at baseline and for at least 24 weeks of treatment. Monitor thereafter according to routine patient management. Consider other treatment options in patients with evidence of liver cirrhosis. Prompt investigation of the cause of liver enzyme elevation is recommended to identify potential cases of drug-induced liver injury. Interrupt treatment if drug-induced liver injury is suspected, until this diagnosis is excluded. Instruct patients to seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of hepatic dysfunction.Immunizations
Avoid use of live vaccines in patients treated with Omvoh. Medications that interact with the immune system may increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to initiating therapy, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines. No data are available on the response to live or non-live vaccines in patients treated with Omvoh.ADVERSE REACTIONS
Most common adverse reactions associated with Omvoh (≥2% of subjects and at a higher frequency than placebo) in ulcerative colitis treatment are upper respiratory tract infections and arthralgia during the induction study (UC-1), and upper respiratory tract infections, injection site reactions, arthralgia, rash, headache, and herpes viral infection during the maintenance study (UC-2). Most common adverse reactions associated with Omvoh in the Crohn's disease study (CD-1) (≥5% of subjects and at a higher frequency than placebo) are upper respiratory tract infections, injection site reactions, headache, arthralgia, and elevated liver tests.Omvoh injection is available as a 300 mg/15 mL solution in a single-dose vial for intravenous infusion, and as a 100 mg/mL solution or a 200 mg/2 mL solution in a single dose pre?lled pen or pre?lled syringe for subcutaneous injection.

Novo Nordisk’s Weight-Loss Pill Momentum Faces Pricing PressureMay 5, 2026 6:27 AM
IH Market News Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:NVO) is experiencing strong early uptake for its new weight-loss pill, but intensifying competition with U.S. rival Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) is raising concerns about whether growing prescription volumes can offset mounting pricing pressure in the obesity drug market.The Danish drugmaker is set to report first-quarter earnings on Wednesday, with a heavy focus on the pill’s performance as it seeks to regain market share. The broader outlook for obesity treatments has become less certain, as U.S. pricing declines and increased competition challenge earlier projections of a $150 billion global market within the next decade. A Critical Moment for Novo The company has spent much of the past year under pressure, following setbacks including underwhelming trial results for its next-generation obesity treatment, reduced guidance, leadership changes and a significant share price decline that has erased more than $400 billion in market value since its 2024 peak.“We are in the middle of the exam period, let’s put it that way,” said Mikael Bak, head of the Danish Shareholders’ Association.“What I will be looking for is whether they are increasingly able to go from being rather defensive to being more offensive.” Strong Early Demand for Oral Wegovy Initial prescription data for Novo’s oral Wegovy treatment has exceeded expectations. According to figures from research firm IQVIA Holdings Inc., around 721,000 prescriptions were recorded in the U.S. during the first quarter, noted BMO Capital Markets analyst Evan Seigerman.However, Novo’s first-mover advantage ended in early April when Eli Lilly secured approval for its competing pill, Foundayo, setting up direct competition in the oral obesity segment.In a potentially encouraging sign for the sector, Eli Lilly recently reported stronger-than-expected quarterly results, boosting both its own shares and those of Novo, supported by robust demand for its weight-loss and diabetes treatments Zepbound and Mounjaro. Volume Growth vs Revenue Pressure Seigerman cautioned that it may be too early to draw firm conclusions from the initial launch data, noting that IQVIA figures exclude some prescriptions filled through telehealth providers, suggesting actual patient numbers could be higher.At the same time, analysts warn that strong prescription volumes may not translate into equally strong revenue. Approximately 450,000 prescriptions were for the lowest 1.5 mg starter dose, priced at $149 per month. BMO Capital Markets estimates that first-quarter pill revenue could fall about 12% short of the roughly $1 billion consensus forecast.“The initial launch has gone better than people thought,” said Barclays analyst James Gordon. “But are some people just starting on the cheap low dose and staying on it because it’s cheaper and they don’t need the higher efficacy and cost delivered by higher doses? There are still quite a lot of moving parts, even before Lilly’s competing oral product makes an impact”.Patients typically begin treatment at lower doses and gradually move higher over time. A slower transition to higher doses could weigh on revenue even if prescription growth remains strong.Novo declined to comment ahead of its results due to regulatory restrictions.Gordon added that prescriptions for the starter dose appear to have plateaued, while uptake of higher doses has been slower than expected. He suggested that some patients may be remaining on lower-cost doses longer, while others may be discontinuing treatment altogether. Pricing Pressures Build Novo shareholder Lukas Leu acknowledged the strong initial launch but highlighted risks from intensifying price competition, particularly as rivals expand and U.S. President Donald Trump pushes to lower drug costs.“The launch is definitely strong – I think no one wants to debate about that,” Leu said. “What we don’t know yet is whether it will compensate Novo for the price decline, which is faster.”Some investors expect Novo to maintain its full-year guidance while waiting for clearer data on how the pill performs against Eli Lilly’s rival product. Others anticipate a possible increase at the lower end of the forecast range. Competition with Eli Lilly in Focus Investor sentiment toward Novo is increasingly shaped by comparisons with Eli Lilly, with some arguing the U.S. company has moved more decisively in advancing its pipeline and executing strategic deals.“We see early but preliminary signs of progress. But it is still early stage – the future will show whether it is actually enough,” said Anders Schelde of AkademikerPension.Novo Nordisk stock priceEli Lilly stock price Original: Novo Nordisk’s Weight-Loss Pill Momentum Faces Pricing Pressure

Tech Stocks Set to Extend Rally as Apple Crushes Estimates: Dow Jones, S&P and Nasdaq FuturesMay 1, 2026 9:09 AM
IH Market News
Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures are currently pointing to a higher open on Friday, with stocks likely to see further upside following the rally seen over the course of the previous session.Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) may help lead an extended advance on Wall Street, as the tech giant is surging by 3.6 percent in pre-market trading.The jump by Apple comes after the company reported fiscal better than expected fiscal second quarter results and forecast revenues for the current quarter above analyst estimates.Early buying interest may also be generated by an extended pullback by the price of crude oil, with U.S. crude oil futures tumbling by more than 2 percent.U.S. crude oil futures showed a significant downturn on Thursday, slumping by 1.7 percent after reaching their highest levels in four years.The continued decrease by crude oil prices comes after an Axios reporter said Iran has delivered its response to the latest U.S. amendments on the agreement to end the war through Pakistani mediators.After seeing considerable volatility early in the session, stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the trading day on Thursday. The major averages all showed strong moves to the upside, with the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 reaching new record closing highs.The major averages gave back some ground going into the end of the day but still posted strong gains.

In Q1 2026, worldwide revenue was $19.8 billion, an increase of 56% compared with Q1 2025, driven by a 65% increase in volume, partially offset by a 13% decrease due to lower realized prices. Key Products1 revenue grew to $13.4 billion in Q1 2026, led by Mounjaro and Zepbound. Key Products revenue in the Immunology, Oncology, and Neuroscience therapeutic areas grew 160% in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025.Revenue in the U.S. increased 43% to $12.1 billion, driven by a 49% increase in volume, partially offset by a 7% decrease due to lower realized prices. The increase in U.S. volume was driven by Zepbound and Mounjaro and the decline in realized prices was primarily driven by Zepbound and Taltz.Revenue outside the U.S. increased 81% to $7.7 billion, driven by a 95% increase in volume, partially offset by a 25% decrease due to lower realized prices. The lower realized prices outside the U.S. were driven primarily by the addition of Mounjaro to the National Reimbursed Drug List (NRDL) in China. The volume increase outside the U.S. was driven by Mounjaro. Jardiance revenue outside the U.S. included one-time benefits of $250 million in Q1 2026 compared to $370 million in Q1 2025, associated with the company's collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim.1 The Company currently defines Key Products as Ebglyss, Inluriyo, Jaypirca, Kisunla, Mounjaro, Omvoh, and Zepbound. Effective Q1 2026, Verzenio is excluded from Key Products.Gross margin increased 54% to $16.2 billion in Q1 2026. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 81.9%, a decrease of 0.6 percentage points versus the same quarter last year. The change was primarily driven by lower realized prices.In Q1 2026, research and development expenses increased 28% to $3.5 billion, or 18% of revenue, driven by continued investments in the company's early and late-stage portfolio.Marketing, selling, and administrative expenses increased 19% to $2.9 billion in Q1 2026, primarily driven by promotional efforts supporting ongoing and planned launches.In Q1 2026, the company recognized acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges of $584 million compared with $1.6 billion in Q1 2025. The Q1 2025 charges primarily related to the acquisition of Scorpion Therapeutics, Inc.'s PI3Ka inhibitor program STX-478.Asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges of $279 million in Q1 2026 were primarily related to litigation matters. In Q1 2025, there was a charge of $35 million related to intangible asset impairments.The effective tax rate was 16.4% in Q1 2026 compared with 20.2% in Q1 2025, primarily driven by the unfavorable tax impact of a non-deductible acquired IPR&D charge in Q1 2025. The 2026 and 2025 effective tax rates were impacted by net discrete tax benefits in each period.In Q1 2026, net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $7.4 billion and $8.26, respectively, compared with net income of $2.8 billion and EPS of $3.06 in Q1 2025. EPS in Q1 2026 and Q1 2025 included acquired IPR&D charges of $0.52 and $1.72, respectively.First-Quarter Non-GAAP Measures
On a non-GAAP basis, Q1 2026 gross margin increased 54% to $16.4 billion. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 82.6%, a decrease of 0.9 percentage points versus the same quarter last year. The change was primarily driven by lower realized prices.The non-GAAP effective tax rate was 16.5% in Q1 2026 compared with 20.2% in Q1 2025, primarily driven by the unfavorable tax impact of a non-deductible acquired IPR&D charge in Q1 2025.

For Q1 2026, worldwide Mounjaro revenue increased 125% to $8.7 billion. U.S. revenue was $4.2 billion, an increase of 59%, reflecting strong demand, partially offset by lower realized prices. Lower realized prices were partially offset by a favorable one-time adjustment to estimates for rebates and discounts in Q1 2026. Revenue outside the U.S. increased to $4.4 billion compared with $1.2 billion in Q1 2025, primarily driven by volume growth, partially offset by lower realized prices driven by the addition of Mounjaro to the NRDL within the China market.Zepbound
For Q1 2026, U.S. Zepbound revenue increased 79% to $4.1 billion, compared with $2.3 billion in Q1 2025, primarily driven by strong demand, partially offset by lower realized prices, including previously announced reductions in cash pay prices. Lower realized prices were partially offset by a favorable one-time adjustment to estimates for rebates and discounts in Q1 2026. Lilly shared numerous updates recently on key regulatory, clinical, business development and other events, including:RegulatoryFDA approves Lilly's Foundayo™ (orforglipron), the only GLP-1 pill for weight loss that can be taken any time of day without food or water restrictions (announcement)Lilly's Olumiant (baricitinib) recommended by CHMP for approval of expanded use in the European Union for adolescents with severe alopecia areata (announcement)Zepbound (tirzepatide), the most prescribed weight management medication in 2025, now available in multi-dose KwikPen (announcement)ClinicalACHIEVE-4, the longest Phase 3 study of Lilly's Foundayo (orforglipron) to date, reaffirmed its cardiovascular and overall safety profile as well as consistent improvements across key measures of cardiometabolic health (announcement)Lilly's Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) significantly extended progression-free survival when added to a venetoclax time-limited regimen in patients with previously treated CLL/SLL (announcement)Phase 3b data presented at AAD Annual Meeting show Lilly's Taltz (ixekizumab) plus Zepbound (tirzepatide) delivered superior efficacy for adults with psoriatic arthritis and obesity (announcement)Lilly's EBGLYSS (lebrikizumab-lbkz) delivered up to four years of durable disease control for patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (announcement)Lilly's triple agonist, retatrutide, demonstrated significant reductions in A1C and weight in first Phase 3 trial for treatment of type 2 diabetes (announcement)Lilly's EBGLYSS (lebrikizumab-lbkz) is the first and only selective IL-13 inhibitor to deliver positive Phase 3 outcomes in patients aged six months to 18 years with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (announcement)Lilly's oral GLP-1, orforglipron, delivered superior blood sugar control and weight loss compared to oral semaglutide in head-to-head type 2 diabetes trial published in The Lancet (announcement)Patients with Crohn's disease maintained steroid-free remission for three years with Lilly's Omvoh (mirikizumab-mrkz) (announcement)Lilly's Taltz (ixekizumab) and Zepbound (tirzepatide) used together delivered superior efficacy in first-of-its-kind Phase 3b trial for adults with psoriasis and obesity or overweight (announcement)Lilly's Retevmo (selpercatinib) delivers substantial event-free survival benefit as an adjuvant therapy in early-stage RET fusion-positive lung cancer (announcement)OtherLilly to acquire Ajax Therapeutics to advance outcomes for patients with myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera (announcement)Lilly to acquire Kelonia Therapeutics to advance in vivo CAR-T cell therapies (announcement)Foundayo™ (orforglipron), Lilly's new oral GLP-1 pill for weight loss, now available in the U.S. (announcement)Lilly to acquire Centessa Pharmaceuticals to advance treatments for sleep-wake disorders (announcement)Lilly Employer Connect platform launches with over fifteen independent program administrators offering tailored obesity coverage options to expand access to patients (announcement)Lilly to acquire Orna Therapeutics to advance cell therapies (announcement)For information on important public announcements, visit the news section of Lilly's website.2026 Financial Guidance

(1) Lilly does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures
because comparable GAAP measures are not reasonably accessible or reliable due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and
quantifying measures that would be necessary for a reconciliation. In particular, Lilly cannot reasonably predict certain items including
net gains and losses on equity securities, asset impairment, acquisition or divestiture-related items, restructuring and other adjustments,
without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on Lilly's reported
results in accordance with GAAP. See Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Selected Non-GAAP Adjusted Information (Unaudited) table
below for additional Non-GAAP information.(2) The company defines performance margin as gross margin less research and development and marketing, selling, and administrative
expenses divided by revenue. (3) Guidance does not include acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) incurred after March 31, 2026. (4) 2026 assumes shares outstanding of approximately 895 million and foreign currency exchange rate assumptions of 1.16 (Euro), 153

The conference call will begin at 10 a.m. Eastern time today and will be available for replay via the website.Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain financial information is presented on both a reported and a non-GAAP basis. Some numbers in this press release may not add due to rounding. Reported results were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and include all revenue and expenses recognized during the periods. Historical non-GAAP measures reflect adjustments for the items described in the reconciliation tables later in the release. Related materials provide certain GAAP and non-GAAP figures excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates. Lilly recalculates current period figures on a constant currency basis by keeping constant the exchange rates from the base period. The company's 2026 financial guidance (other than revenue) is provided on a non-GAAP basis, as described in "2026 Financial Guidance" above. Non-GAAP measures are presented to provide additional insights into the underlying trends in the company's business.About Lilly

Lilly to acquire Ajax Therapeutics to advance outcomes for patients with myelofibrosis and polycythemia veraApril 27, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Ajax's lead program, AJ1-11095, is a first-in-class Type II JAK2 inhibitor currently in Phase 1 clinical development, with first proof-of-concept clinical data to be presented later in 2026Based on its unique mode of binding JAK2, AJ1-11095 has the potential to deliver deeper and more durable disease control than approved therapies for myelofibrosis and polycythemia veraAcquisition builds on Lilly's established capabilities in blood cancersINDIANAPOLIS and NEW YORK and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) and Ajax Therapeutics, Inc. ("Ajax"), a biopharmaceutical company developing next generation JAK inhibitors for patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), today announced a definitive agreement for Lilly to acquire Ajax. Ajax's lead asset, AJ1-11095, is an investigational, once-daily oral, first-in-class Type II JAK2 inhibitor currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial, AJX-101, in patients with myelofibrosis who have previously been treated with a Type I JAK2 inhibitor.All approved JAK2 inhibitors for patients with MPNs, including myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera, bind the Type I confirmation of JAK2. While these JAK2 inhibitors provide clinical and symptomatic relief, many patients often discontinue Type I JAK2 treatment due to a lack of durable benefit or loss of response. AJ1-11095 was designed as a selective Type II JAK2 inhibitor to not only deliver deeper and more durable efficacy than existing JAK2 inhibitors but also to provide a novel treatment option for those patients who become resistant to Type I JAK2 inhibitors. The Phase 1 clinical trial of AJ1-11095 began in late 2024 and dose selection for future clinical development is expected in 2026. "As a founding strategic investor in Ajax, Lilly has long believed in the approach and is excited about the potential for AJ1-11095 to deliver deeper and more durable efficacy than available treatments with a tolerability profile that would allow for patients to remain on therapy longer and be used across both the first- and second-line settings," said Jacob Van Naarden, executive vice president and president of Lilly Oncology and head of corporate business development. "We look forward to the presentation of clinical proof-of-concept data later in 2026, rapidly advancing AJ1-11095 into registrational clinical trials, and using our expertise in blood cancer to hopefully deliver another important new medicine to patients and hematologists.""We started Ajax to build on the work of its five scientific founders, including Ross Levine, MD, chief scientific officer at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and chair of Ajax's scientific advisory board, who sought to develop a novel class of selective and more potent JAK2 inhibitors to address the significant unmet need of patients with MPNs," said Martin Vogelbaum, co-founder and chief executive officer of Ajax Therapeutics. "With a small but highly motivated team, we have successfully applied this work to the design and development of our highly selective, first-in-class Type II JAK2 inhibitor, AJ1-11095.  We now look forward to Lilly advancing AJ1-11095 through the clinic and providing a much-needed new therapy for patients with MPNs.  It has been an honor working with our employees and scientific advisors and we're grateful to our clinical investigators, and most importantly, the patients who have participated in our ongoing Phase 1 study, AJX-101."Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly will acquire Ajax and Ajax shareholders could receive up to $2.3 billion in cash, inclusive of an upfront payment and subsequent payments upon the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones.The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Lilly will determine the accounting treatment of this transaction following closing in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

ACHIEVE-4, the longest Phase 3 study of Lilly's Foundayo (orforglipron) to date, reaffirmed its cardiovascular and overall safety profile as well as consistent improvements across key measures of cardiometabolic healthApril 16, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)

In ACHIEVE-4, Foundayo met the primary objective of non-inferiority vs. insulin glargine with a 16% lower risk of MACE-4 events and a 23% lower risk of MACE-3 eventsIn a pre-planned analysis, the risk of all-cause death was 57% lower for Foundayo vs. insulin glargine, showing the potential for more comprehensive health benefitsWith these data, Lilly plans to submit Foundayo for the treatment of type 2 diabetes to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by the end of Q2INDIANAPOLIS, April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced positive topline results from the Phase 3 ACHIEVE-4 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Foundayo (orforglipron), compared to insulin glargine in adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight at increased cardiovascular risk. ACHIEVE-4, the largest and longest study of Foundayo in type 2 diabetes to date, enrolled more than 2,700 participants across 15 countries. In the trial, Foundayo met the primary endpoint by demonstrating a non-inferior risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-4), including cardiovascular death, heart attack, stroke or hospitalization for unstable and sudden chest pain, compared to insulin glargine. In addition, Foundayo showed superior improvements in A1C and body weight at 52 weeks vs. insulin glargine, which persisted through 104 weeks of therapy. While not controlled for multiplicity, the risk of all-cause death was significantly lower for Foundayo vs. insulin glargine."Across seven Phase 3 studies enrolling more than 11,000 patients, Foundayo has demonstrated a consistent safety and efficacy profile," said Thomas Seck, M.D., senior vice president of product development, Lilly Cardiometabolic Health. "ACHIEVE-4 adds a new dimension to that evidence — cardiovascular safety and a lower observed risk of all-cause death in patients who carry elevated cardiovascular risk. Together with the simplicity of a once-daily pill that requires no food or water restrictions, we believe Foundayo could be an important new treatment option for people with type 2 diabetes."In the trial, the risk of cardiovascular death, heart attack, stroke, or hospitalization for unstable sudden chest pain was 16% lower for Foundayo vs. insulin glargine (hazard ratio: 0.84; 95.0% CI: 0.59 to 1.20), meeting the prespecified criteria for demonstrating non-inferiority (upper limit of 95.0% CI of the hazard ratio < 1.8).1 The risk of all-cause death was 57% lower with Foundayo vs. insulin glargine (hazard ratio: 0.43; 95.0% CI: 0.25 to 0.75; nominal p = 0.002).2 Foundayo also showed clinically meaningful improvements from baseline across several cardiovascular risk factors, including non-HDL cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, and hsCRP.2ACHIEVE-4 Topline Results:

The most common adverse events for patients taking Foundayo were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, and constipation. During the 52-week minimum treatment period, 10.6% of patients taking Foundayo discontinued treatment due to adverse events. ACHIEVE-4 included a thorough analysis of potential drug-induced liver injury (DILI), and these analyses confirmed there was no hepatic safety signal, consistent with all prior studies in the ACHIEVE and ATTAIN programs.Lilly will submit Foundayo for the treatment of type 2 diabetes to the U.S. FDA by the end of the second quarter under the Commissioner's National Priority Review Voucher.About Foundayo (orforglipron) 
Foundayo (orforglipron) is FDA-approved for adults with obesity, or some adults with overweight who also have weight-related medical problems to reduce excess body weight and maintain weight reduction long term, alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Foundayo is a once-daily small molecule (non-peptide) oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that can be taken any time of the day without restrictions on food and water intake.4 Orforglipron was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and licensed by Lilly in 2018. In addition to chronic weight management, Foundayo is being studied as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, osteoarthritis knee pain, hypertension, peripheral artery disease and stress urinary incontinence.About ACHIEVE-4 and ACHIEVE clinical trial program 
ACHIEVE-4 (NCT05803421) is a Phase 3, event-driven, randomized, open-label trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Foundayo compared with insulin glargine in adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight (BMI ≥25 kg/m2) with increased risk of cardiovascular events. The trial randomized 2,749 participants across the U.S., Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Czechia, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Romania, Slovakia, South Korea, Spain and Turkey to receive either escalating doses of Foundayo or insulin glargine. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that Foundayo was non-inferior in the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE-4) compared to insulin glargine in adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight with increased risk for cardiovascular events who have taken at least one and no more than three oral anti-diabetic medications for at least 90 days prior to study start. Study participants had an A1C between ≥7.0% and ≤10.5% (≥7.5% and ≤10.5% if background diabetes medication includes a sulfonylurea) and a BMI of ≥25 kg/m2 with stable weight (±5%) for at least 90 days prior to study start. Participants randomized to Foundayo initiated treatment with 1 mg capsule (corresponds to 0.8 mg tablets) once daily and increased the dose every four weeks until reaching a maximum tolerated dose (up to 36 mg capsule/17.2 mg tablet).The ACHIEVE Phase 3 global clinical development program for Foundayo began in 2023 and enrolled more than 6,000 people with type 2 diabetes across five global registrational trials.Endnotes and References Time to first event analysis using Cox proportional hazard model using all randomized participants exposed to ≥1 dose of study intervention.All-cause death, serum lipids, blood pressure, and hsCRP were not controlled for family-wise type 1 error.The efficacy estimand represents efficacy had all randomized participants remained on study intervention (with possible dose interruptions) without initiating additional antihyperglycemic medications (>14 days of use).Ma X, Liu R, Pratt EJ, Benson CT, Bhattachar SN, Sloop KW.

Eli Lilly reports positive Phase 3 results for Jaypirca in blood cancer studyApril 13, 2026 10:27 AM
IH Market News
Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) said its therapy Jaypirca achieved the primary endpoint in a Phase 3 trial involving patients with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).The BRUIN CLL-322 study evaluated Jaypirca in combination with venetoclax and rituximab against a regimen of venetoclax and rituximab alone in 639 patients with relapsed or refractory disease. The addition of Jaypirca led to a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival, based on assessment by an independent review committee.Patients in both arms received treatment for up to two years before stopping therapy until disease progression. The benefit of the Jaypirca-based combination was observed consistently across patient subgroups, including those who had previously been treated with covalent BTK inhibitors.While overall survival data is not yet mature, early trends favored the Jaypirca combination. The treatment demonstrated a safety profile aligned with the known characteristics of each drug, with comparable adverse event rates between groups and low discontinuation levels.The company said it intends to submit the findings to regulators later this year in support of expanding the drug’s approved uses. Full data from the study will be presented at a forthcoming medical conference and published in a peer-reviewed journal.This represents the fourth successful Phase 3 trial of Jaypirca in CLL, adding to earlier results from the BRUIN program, including studies in treatment-naïve patients and those previously treated with BTK inhibitors.Jaypirca is currently approved for adults with relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL who have received prior treatment with a covalent BTK inhibitor, as well as for certain patients with mantle cell lymphoma.Eli Lilly stock price

Lilly's Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) significantly extended progression-free survival when added to a venetoclax time-limited regimen in patients with previously treated CLL/SLLApril 13, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)

BRUIN CLL-322 is the first Phase 3 readout in CLL to utilize and outperform a venetoclax-containing control armThis trial predominantly enrolled a patient population previously treated with covalent BTK inhibitors, highly relevant to current practice These results mark the fourth positive Phase 3 study of pirtobrutinib in CLLINDIANAPOLIS, April 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced positive topline results from the Phase 3 BRUIN CLL-322 trial of Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib), a non-covalent (reversible) Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, plus venetoclax and rituximab versus venetoclax and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). Treatment in both study arms was administered for up to two years, after which patients do not take any CLL therapy until their disease progresses. The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating that the addition of pirtobrutinib to venetoclax plus rituximab led to a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by an independent review committee (IRC). Results were consistent across clinically relevant subgroups and regardless of whether patients were previously treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.Overall survival (OS), a key secondary endpoint, was not yet mature at this analysis, but was trending in favor of the pirtobrutinib combination regimen. The overall safety profile of this regimen was consistent with the known safety profile of each medicine. Rates of adverse events were similar across the study arms, with low rates of treatment regimen discontinuations, also similar between arms.Detailed results will be presented at a medical congress and submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. Lilly intends to submit these results to regulators later this year for a label expansion."BRUIN CLL-322 was an ambitious trial, building on an effective regimen, and these results outperformed our expectations," said Jacob Van Naarden, executive vice president and president of Lilly Oncology. "Modern CLL treatment regimens provide such durable disease control that the vast majority of patients see their entire disease course managed by only one or two lines of therapy. For doctors and patients who prefer a time-limited approach, these BRUIN CLL-322 data demonstrate that the addition of Jaypirca could further extend the duration of benefit in second line CLL. Together with the other Phase 3 data recently published from the BRUIN clinical program, these data reinforce the potential role that pirtobrutinib may have, whether as a time-limited combination as a second line treatment or as a continuously dosed monotherapy in either line of therapy. We look forward to sharing the detailed data later this year and pursuing regulatory approvals to enable broad access."These data build on the previously reported positive results from the BRUIN Phase 1/2 trial, the Phase 3 BRUIN CLL-321 trial, the first randomized, controlled study ever conducted in an exclusively post-covalent BTK inhibitor population, the Phase 3 BRUIN CLL-314 trial, the first-ever head-to-head Phase 3 trial versus ibrutinib in CLL to include treatment-naïve patients, and the BRUIN CLL-313 trial, the first prospective, randomized Phase 3 study to examine the efficacy and safety of a non-covalent BTK inhibitor exclusively in patients with treatment-naïve CLL.

BRUIN CLL-322 is a global, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study comparing time-limited pirtobrutinib plus venetoclax and rituximab versus venetoclax and rituximab in previously treated CLL/SLL patients. The trial enrolled 639 patients, who were randomized 1:1 to receive pirtobrutinib (200 mg, once daily) plus venetoclax and rituximab per their labeled doses or venetoclax and rituximab alone. The primary endpoint is PFS as assessed by blinded IRC. Secondary endpoints include PFS as assessed by investigator, OS, time to next treatment, event-free survival, overall response rate, time to worsening of CLL/SLL-related symptoms, time to worsening of physical functioning, safety and tolerability.About Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) 
Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) (pronounced jay-pihr-kaa) is a highly selective (300 times more selective for BTK versus 98% of other kinases tested in preclinical studies), non-covalent (reversible) inhibitor of the enzyme BTK.1 BTK is a validated molecular target found across numerous B-cell leukemias and lymphomas including mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).2,3 Jaypirca is a U.S. FDA-approved oral prescription medicine, 100 mg or 50 mg tablets taken as a once-daily 200 mg dose with or without food until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.INDICATIONS FOR JAYPIRCA (pirtobrutinib)
Jaypirca is indicated for the treatment ofAdult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) who have previously been treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.Adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) after at least two lines of systemic therapy, including a BTK inhibitor. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical trial benefit in a confirmatory trial. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR JAYPIRCA (pirtobrutinib)Infections: Fatal and serious infections (including bacterial, viral, fungal) and opportunistic infections occurred in Jaypirca-treated patients. Across clinical trials, Grade ≥3 infections occurred (25%), most commonly pneumonia (20%); fatal infections (5%), sepsis (6%), and febrile neutropenia (3.8%) occurred. In patients with CLL/SLL, Grade ≥3 infections occurred (32%), with fatal infections occurring in 8%. Opportunistic infections included Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and fungal infection. Consider prophylaxis, including vaccinations and antimicrobial prophylaxis, in patients at increased risk for infection, including opportunistic infections. Monitor for signs and symptoms, evaluate, and treat. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Hemorrhage: Fatal and serious hemorrhage has occurred with Jaypirca. Across clinical trials, major hemorrhage (Grade ≥3 bleeding or any central nervous system bleeding) occurred (2.6%), including gastrointestinal hemorrhage; fatal hemorrhage occurred (0.3%). Bleeding of any grade, excluding bruising and petechiae, occurred (16%). Major hemorrhage occurred when taking Jaypirca with (2.0%) and without (0.6%) antithrombotic agents. Consider risks/benefits of co-administering antithrombotic agents with Jaypirca. Monitor for signs of bleeding. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca. Consider withholding Jaypirca 3-7 days pre- and post-surgery based on surgery type and bleeding risk.Cytopenias: Jaypirca can cause cytopenias, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. Across clinical trials, Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias, including decreased neutrophils (27%), decreased platelets (13%), and decreased hemoglobin (11%), developed. Grade 4 decreased neutrophils (15%) and Grade 4 decreased platelets (6%) developed. Monitor complete blood counts regularly. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Cardiac Arrhythmias: Cardiac arrhythmias occurred in patients taking Jaypirca. Across clinical trials, atrial fibrillation or flutter were reported in 3.4% of Jaypirca treated patients, with Grade 3 or 4 atrial fibrillation or flutter in 1.6%. Other serious cardiac arrhythmias such as supraventricular tachycardia and cardiac arrest occurred (0.4%). Cardiac risk factors such as hypertension or previous arrhythmias may increase risk. Monitor and manage signs and symptoms of arrhythmias (e.g., palpitations, dizziness, syncope, dyspnea). Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue Jaypirca.Second Primary Malignancies: Across clinical trials, second primary malignancies, including non-skin carcinomas, developed in 9% of Jaypirca-treated patients, most frequently non-melanoma skin cancer (4.4%). Other second primary malignancies included solid tumors (including genitourinary and breast cancers) and melanoma. Advise patients to use sun protection and monitor for development of second primary malignancies.Hepatotoxicity, Including Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI): Hepatotoxicity, including severe, life-threatening, and potentially fatal cases of DILI, has occurred in patients treated with BTK inhibitors, including Jaypirca. Evaluate bilirubin and transaminases at baseline and throughout Jaypirca treatment. For patients who develop abnormal liver tests after Jaypirca, monitor more frequently for liver test abnormalities and clinical signs and symptoms of hepatic toxicity. If DILI is suspected, withhold Jaypirca. If DILI is confirmed, discontinue Jaypirca.Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Jaypirca can cause fetal harm. Administration of pirtobrutinib to pregnant rats caused embryo-fetal toxicity, including embryo-fetal mortality and malformations at maternal exposures (AUC) approximately 3-times the recommended 200 mg/day dose. Advise pregnant women of fetal risk and females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for one week after last dose.Adverse Reactions (ARs) in Patients Who Received JaypircaThe most common (≥30%) ARs in the pooled safety population of patients with hematologic malignancies (n=704) were decreased neutrophil count (54%), decreased hemoglobin (43%), decreased leukocytes (32%), fatigue (31%), decreased platelets (31%), decreased lymphocyte count (31%), calcium decreased (30%).Mantle Cell LymphomaSerious ARs occurred in 38% of patients, with pneumonia (14%), COVID-19 (4.7%), musculoskeletal pain (3.9%), hemorrhage (2.3%), pleural effusion (2.3%), and sepsis (2.3%) occurring in ≥2% of patients. Fatal ARs within 28 days of last dose occurred in 7% of patients, most commonly due to infections (4.7%), including COVID-19 (3.1% of all patients).Dose Modifications and Discontinuations Due to ARs: Dose reductions in 4.7%, treatment interruption in 32%, and permanent discontinuation of Jaypirca in 9% of patients. Permanent discontinuation in >1% of patients included pneumonia.Most common ARs (≥15%) and Select Laboratory Abnormalities (≥10%) (all Grades %; Grade 3-4 %): hemoglobin decreased (42; 9), platelet count decreased (39; 14), neutrophil count decreased (36; 16), lymphocyte count decreased (32; 15), creatinine increased (30; 1.6), fatigue (29; 1.6), musculoskeletal pain (27; 3.9), calcium decreased (19; 1.6), diarrhea (19; -), edema (18; 0.8), dyspnea (17; 2.3), AST increased (17; 1.6), pneumonia (16; 14), bruising (16; -), potassium decreased (13; 1.6), sodium decreased (13; -), lipase increased (12; 4.4), ALT increased (11; 1.6), potassium increased (11; 0.8), alkaline phosphatase increased (11; -). Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in >5% of patients included neutrophils decreased (10), platelets decreased (7), lymphocytes decreased (6).Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma from Single-Arm and Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials Serious ARs occurred in 47-56% of patients across clinical trials. Serious ARs in ≥5% of patients in the single-arm trial were pneumonia (18%), COVID-19 (9%), sepsis (7%), febrile neutropenia (7%). Serious ARs in ≥3% of patients in the randomized controlled trial were pneumonia (21%), COVID-19 (5%), sepsis (3.4%). Fatal ARs within 28-30 days of last Jaypirca dose occurred in 8-11% of patients, most commonly due to infections (7-10%), including sepsis (5%), COVID-19 (2.7-5%), and pneumonia (3.4%).Dose Modifications and Discontinuations Due to ARs: Dose reductions in 3.6-10%, treatment interruption in 42-51%, and permanent discontinuation of Jaypirca in 9-17% of patients. Permanent discontinuation in >1% of patients included second primary malignancy, pneumonia, COVID-19, neutropenia, sepsis, anemia, and cardiac arrythmias.Most common ARs and Select Laboratory Abnormalities (≥20%) (all Grades %, Grade 3-4 %)--in a randomized controlled trial: neutrophil count decreased (54; 26), hemoglobin decreased (45; 10), platelet count decreased (37; 17), pneumonia (28; 16), ALT increased (25; 1.8), creatinine increased (25; -), calcium decreased (23; 0.9), sodium decreased (22; 0.9), bilirubin increased (21; 0.9), upper respiratory tract infections (21; 0.9); in a single-arm trial: neutrophil count decreased (63; 45), hemoglobin decreased (48; 19), calcium decreased (40; 2.8), fatigue (36; 2.7), bruising (36; -), cough (33; -), musculoskeletal pain (32; 0.9), platelet count decreased (30; 15), sodium decreased (30; -), COVID-19 (28; 7), pneumonia (27; 16), diarrhea (26; -), abdominal pain (25; 2.7), lymphocyte count decreased (23; 8), ALT increased (23; 2.8), AST increased (23; 1.9), creatinine increased (23; -), dyspnea (22; 2.7), hemorrhage (22; 2.7), lipase increased (21; 7), alkaline phosphatase increased (21; -), edema (21; -), nausea (21; -), pyrexia (20; 2.7), headache (20; 0.9). Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in >5% of patients included neutrophils decreased (23).Drug InteractionsStrong CYP3A Inhibitors: Concomitant use increased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure, which may increase risk of Jaypirca ARs. Avoid using strong CYP3A inhibitors with Jaypirca. If concomitant use is unavoidable, reduce Jaypirca dose according to approved labeling.Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inducers: Concomitant use decreased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure, which may reduce Jaypirca efficacy. Avoid using Jaypirca with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. If concomitant use with moderate CYP3A inducers is unavoidable, increase Jaypirca dose according to approved labeling.Sensitive CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP3A, P-gp, or BCRP Substrates: Use with Jaypirca increased their plasma concentrations, which may increase risk of ARs related to these substrates for drugs sensitive to minimal concentration changes. Follow recommendations for these sensitive substrates in their approved labeling.Use in Specific PopulationsPregnancy and Lactation: Due to potential for Jaypirca to cause fetal harm, verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to starting Jaypirca. Presence of pirtobrutinib in human milk is unknown. Advise women to use effective contraception and to not breastfeed while taking Jaypirca and for one week after last dose.Geriatric Use: In the pooled safety population of patients with hematologic malignancies, patients aged ≥65 years experienced higher rates of Grade ≥3 ARs and serious ARs compared to patients

AC Immune revises collaboration with Eli Lilly on tau-targeting Alzheimer’s therapyApril 7, 2026 9:53 AM
IH Market News
AC Immune SA (NASDAQ:ACIU) said it has amended its 2018 licensing and collaboration agreement with Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) focused on developing small-molecule tau aggregation inhibitors for Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.As part of the revised terms, AC Immune will receive an upfront payment of CHF10 million and an additional milestone payment when Phase 1 clinical dosing begins. The company remains eligible for development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments totaling more than CHF1.7 billion, along with tiered royalties in the low double-digit range.The partnership will concentrate on advancing new lead tau Morphomer candidates and potential backup molecules. AC Immune said it intends to begin Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies during the first half of 2026.According to the company, the Morphomer tau compounds were chosen for their ability to cross the blood-brain barrier when taken orally and for their capacity to bind to disease-related tau protein conformations. Preclinical data suggest the molecules may help inhibit tau aggregation and seeding across different stages of disease progression.“The progress in this collaboration highlights the important breakthroughs we have made with Morphomer small molecules for intracellular targeting of Tau,” said Dr. Andrea Pfeifer, CEO of AC Immune.AC Immune is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing precision therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Its technology platforms include SupraAntigen and Morphomer, with drug candidates currently advancing through Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials.AC Immune stock price

$LLY Eli Lilly is one of the hottest stocks in global markets, driven by explosive enthusiasm around obesity and diabetes drugs. But the valuation has detached from fundamentals. The stock is priced as if nothing can go wrong — in a sector where things always can. With extreme expectations, supply constraints, pricing risk, and rising public fear around side effects, $LLY carries meaningful downside if sentiment cools even slightly.

1. Valuation Is Extreme and Priced for Flawless Execution
LLY trades at a valuation typically reserved for hyper-growth tech companies, not pharmaceutical firms. The market is assuming:

uninterrupted demand

perfect supply scaling

no regulatory surprises

no safety controversies

no competitive erosion

When a pharma stock trades at 40+ P/E, the margin for error disappears. Any disappointment — even minor — can trigger a sharp re-rating.

2. Public Fear and Side-Effect Anxiety Are Growing
This is the angle you requested — framed correctly and safely.

Regardless of clinical data, a growing segment of the public is fearful or skeptical of weight-loss drugs, expressing concerns about:

long-term safety

dependency

side effects

social stigma

over-medicalization of weight loss

This perception — not medical reality — creates:

hesitancy among new patients

political scrutiny

media-driven controversy

reputational drag on the entire drug class

For a company whose valuation depends on mass adoption, public fear is a real risk.

3. Supply Constraints Limit Revenue Upside
Demand for Lilly’s obesity drugs far exceeds supply. While this signals strong interest, it also means:

revenue is capped by manufacturing capacity

patients switch to competitors when Lilly’s drugs are unavailable

insurers hesitate to cover drugs with inconsistent supply

A stock priced for explosive growth cannot afford supply bottlenecks.

4. Pricing Pressure Is Inevitable
Obesity drugs are expensive, and governments and insurers are already signaling pushback. Over time:

reimbursement may tighten

price caps may emerge

insurers may restrict coverage

political pressure may intensify

A valuation built on premium pricing is vulnerable to any form of pricing compression.

5. Competition Is Coming Fast
LLY currently leads the obesity-drug narrative, but competitors are accelerating:

Novo Nordisk

Pfizer

Amgen

emerging biotech entrants

The market is pricing LLY as if it will maintain dominance indefinitely. That’s unlikely in a category this lucrative and crowded.

6. Overbought Technicals and Crowded Positioning
LLY is one of the most crowded trades in the market. Hedge funds, institutions, and retail investors have piled in. When a stock becomes this crowded:

momentum drives price more than fundamentals

corrections become sharper

sentiment shifts trigger outsized moves

A crowded trade with a sky-high valuation is fragile.

Bottom Line
Eli Lilly is a strong company, but the stock is priced as if obesity drugs will deliver flawless, unlimited growth with no setbacks. With extreme valuation, supply constraints, pricing risk, rising competition, and growing public fear around long-term safety, $LLY carries significant downside risk if expectations reset.

$LLY should buy $BYND "Why This Could Be a Winning Pivot

- Plant-based meat is shrinking; beverages are growing.

- Functional drinks are projected to keep expanding.

- GLP-1 users are seeking **high-protein, low-calorie** options — exactly Beyond’s lane.

- Beyond’s brand already stands for “better-for-you protein,” making the transition natural."

FDA approves Lilly's Foundayo™ (orforglipron), the only GLP-1 pill for weight loss that can be taken any time of day without food or water restrictionsApril 1, 2026 11:30 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Adults taking Foundayo lost an average of 27 pounds on the highest dose in the ATTAIN-1 clinical trial1Foundayo, Lilly's second FDA-approved obesity medicine, will be available via LillyDirect® with free home delivery, starting at $25 per month with commercial coverage and $149 for self-payINDIANAPOLIS, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Foundayo™ (orforglipron) for adults with obesity, or overweight with weight-related medical problems. When used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, Foundayo helps individuals lose excess body weight and keep the weight off. Foundayo will be available via LillyDirect®, with prescriptions accepted immediately and shipping beginning April 6, followed shortly after by broad availability through U.S. retail pharmacies and telehealth providers."People living with obesity need treatment options that meet them where they are – and for many, a once-daily pill that can be taken with no food or water restrictions can offer them greater flexibility in how they approach their treatment," said Deborah Horn, DO, director of the Center for Obesity Medicine at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. "With Foundayo, we now have an oral option that delivered an average of 12.4% weight loss at the highest dose in clinical trials – addressing both the clinical realities of obesity and the practical challenges patients face every day."Supported by the rigorous ATTAIN clinical trial program, Foundayo was proven to help people lose weight and keep it off. In the ATTAIN-1 trial, individuals taking the highest dose of Foundayo and who stayed on treatment lost an average of 27.3 pounds (12.4%) compared to 2.2 pounds (0.9%) with placebo.1 Participants taking Foundayo, regardless of trial completion, lost an average of 25 pounds (11.1%), compared to 5.3 pounds (2.1%) with placebo.2 In the ATTAIN program, Foundayo also led to reductions in many markers of cardiovascular risk, including waist circumference, non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and systolic blood pressure across all doses."Today, fewer than 1 in 10 people who could benefit from a GLP-1 are taking one, held back by access, stigma, perceived complexity or the belief that their condition isn't serious enough for treatment. We believe Foundayo can help level the playing field for those living with obesity or who are overweight and living with weight-related complications," said David A. Ricks, chair and CEO of Eli Lilly and Company. "As a convenient, once-daily oral pill that delivers meaningful weight loss, this is obesity care designed for the real world."Lilly is committed to making Foundayo accessible and affordable. Eligible people with commercial insurance may pay as little as $25 per month with the Foundayo savings card.3 Individuals opting for self-pay can access Foundayo starting at $149 per month for the lowest dose. Additionally, eligible Medicare Part D individuals may be able to get Foundayo for $50 per month, beginning as soon as July 1, 2026.Use of Foundayo with other GLP-1 receptor agonist medicines is not recommended. It is not known whether Foundayo is safe and effective for use in children. Foundayo may cause tumors in the thyroid, including thyroid cancer. Watch for possible symptoms, such as a lump or swelling in the neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing or shortness of breath. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your health care provider. The most common side effects of Foundayo include nausea, constipation, diarrhea, vomiting, indigestion, stomach (abdominal) pain, headache, swollen belly, feeling tired, belching, heartburn, gas, and hair loss. These are not all the possible side effects of Foundayo. Please see Indication and Safety Summary with Warning below and full Prescribing Information and Medication Guide."There is no single path that works for everyone living with overweight or obesity," said Joe Nadglowski, president and CEO of the Obesity Action Coalition. "New treatment options expand choice and help more people find care that fits their lives, their goals and where they are in their journey – whether they're just starting to explore treatment or looking for a different long-term approach."Lilly has submitted orforglipron for weight management and/or type 2 diabetes in more than 40 countries and plans to launch in each country shortly after approval.For more information about Foundayo, please visit www.foundayo.lilly.com. About Foundayo (orforglipron)4

Hopes of Iran War Resolution Spark Broad Rally on Wall StreetMarch 31, 2026 4:31 PM
IH Market News
U.S. stocks surged on Tuesday as reports that President Trump is willing to end the military campaign in Iran triggered a wave of buying across every major sector. The news sent oil prices retreating from recent highs and pushed the fear gauge sharply lower, giving investors their best session in weeks and snapping a streak of conflict-driven volatility.The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite led the charge, soaring 795.99 points, or 3.83%, to close at 21,590.63. The S&P 500 climbed 184.80 points, or 2.91%, finishing at 6,528.52, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 1,125.37 points, or 2.49%, to settle at 46,341.51. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), widely regarded as Wall Street’s fear gauge, plunged more than 17% to 25.12, signaling a meaningful return of investor confidence. U.S. crude oil, which has spiked nearly 50% since the start of the conflict, pulled back to around $102 a barrel on the prospect of a diplomatic resolution.



Notable Movers



Large-cap technology names powered the rally. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Amazon (AMZN) each gained roughly 5%, while Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta Platforms (META) added about 3% apiece as investors rotated back into growth stocks that had been punished during the recent sell-off.Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) rose approximately 3% after announcing a deal to acquire Centessa Pharmaceuticals (CNTA) for up to $7.8 billion, or $38 per share upfront with potential milestone payments bringing the total to $47 per share. The acquisition gives Lilly a pipeline of sleep-wake disorder treatments, including a promising narcolepsy drug.McCormick (MKC) fell about 7% despite reporting a Q1 earnings beat. The spice maker announced a blockbuster $44.8 billion merger with Unilever’s food business, combining brands like Hellmann’s and Knorr with McCormick’s Frank’s RedHot and Cholula. Investors appeared concerned about the deal’s size and integration risk, with Unilever shareholders set to own 55% of the combined entity.After the closing bell, Nike (NKE) reported fiscal Q3 results that topped expectations. Revenue came in at $12.4 billion versus estimates of $12.1 billion, while earnings per share of $0.98 beat the $0.89 consensus. North American sales grew 6%, returning to growth for the first time in eight quarters — a sign that CEO Elliott Hill’s turnaround strategy is gaining traction.



Looking Ahead



Investors will be watching closely for any follow-through on the Iran peace talks, which remain the dominant force driving sentiment. A concrete ceasefire agreement could provide further relief for energy prices and unlock more upside for equities. On the economic calendar, the first trading day of April brings the ISM Manufacturing Index, which will offer a fresh read on whether the industrial economy is holding up under the weight of elevated oil costs and tariff uncertainty. Nike’s after-hours beat could also set a positive tone for Wednesday’s open, particularly for the consumer discretionary sector heading into earnings season.

Alkermes shares jump 13% after Lilly announces sleep-disorder acquisitionMarch 31, 2026 10:55 AM
IH Market News
Shares of Alkermes (NASDAQ:ALKS) climbed about 13% on Tuesday after Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) revealed plans to acquire Centessa Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:CNTA), a biotechnology company developing therapies for sleep-related disorders.Under the agreement, Lilly will purchase all outstanding and to-be-issued Centessa shares for $38.00 in cash per share, along with a non-transferable contingent value right (CVR) that could add up to $9.00 per share if certain milestones are achieved. This structure gives the transaction a potential total value of $47.00 per share. The upfront payment represents an equity value of roughly $6.3 billion, while the CVR component could contribute up to $1.5 billion in additional value.Centessa is advancing a pipeline of orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) agonists, therapies designed to target a neurological pathway central to regulating the sleep-wake cycle. Its lead drug candidate, cleminorexton, has shown promising results in Phase 2a studies across several sleep disorders, including narcolepsy type 1, narcolepsy type 2, and idiopathic hypersomnia.The CVR attached to the deal includes three possible milestone payouts: $2.00 per CVR if the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approves cleminorexton or ORX142 for narcolepsy type 2 before the fifth anniversary of the deal’s closing; $5.00 per CVR if approval is granted for idiopathic hypersomnia within the same timeframe; and $2.00 per CVR if either therapy receives its first FDA approval for any indication before January 1, 2030.In addition to cleminorexton, Centessa’s OX2R-focused portfolio includes several other assets currently in clinical and preclinical development, which could potentially be applied to a wider range of neurological, neurodegenerative, and neuropsychiatric conditions.Alkermes stock priceEli Lilly stock priceCentessa Pharmaceuticals stock price

Centessa shares soar after Lilly announces multibillion-dollar acquisition dealMarch 31, 2026 10:42 AM
IH Market News
Centessa Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:CNTA) shares surged more than 46% in pre-market trading Tuesday after Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) revealed a definitive agreement to acquire the clinical-stage biotech company in a transaction valued at up to $7.8 billion, including contingent milestone payments.Under the terms of the deal, Lilly will pay $38 per share in cash, representing an upfront value of about $6.3 billion. Shareholders will also receive a non-transferable contingent value right worth up to an additional $9 per share if certain regulatory milestones are achieved.According to Lilly, the offer reflects a 40.5% premium to Centessa’s 30-day volume-weighted average share price.The acquisition will give Lilly control of Centessa’s orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) agonist portfolio, including cleminorexton, which the company described as a “potential best-in-class therapeutic” aimed at treating sleep-wake disorders such as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2 and idiopathic hypersomnia.The pipeline also includes several earlier-stage drug candidates that could potentially address a broader range of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders.Carole Ho, president of Lilly Neuroscience, said “orexin receptor biology represents one of the most compelling mechanistic opportunities in neuroscience” and noted that bringing the teams together would allow Lilly to advance Centessa’s pipeline “at the speed and scale it deserves.”Centessa CEO Mario Alberto Accardi said the company is “at the forefront of orexin science,” adding that the portfolio “could help redefine what’s possible in neuroscience.”He said that becoming part of Lilly will “accelerate the advancement of our orexin portfolio across a broad range of neuroscience indications.”The companies expect the transaction to close during the third quarter.Centessa Pharmaceuticals stock priceEli Lilly stock price

Lilly to acquire Centessa Pharmaceuticals to advance treatments for sleep-wake disordersMarch 31, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Centessa's OX2R agonist pipeline includes a potential best-in-class therapeutic with significant promise to meaningfully improve outcomes across a range of sleep-wake disordersAcquisition expands Lilly's neuroscience portfolio and capabilities into sleep medicine INDIANAPOLIS and BOSTON and LONDON, March 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) and Centessa Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: CNTA), a clinical-stage company developing a new class of medicines for the treatment of excessive daytime sleepiness and other neurological conditions, today announced a definitive agreement for Lilly to acquire Centessa.Centessa is advancing a pipeline of orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) agonists designed to address the neurobiological system critical to the sleep-wake cycle to treat excessive daytime sleepiness and disorders of impaired wakefulness. Its lead investigational candidate cleminorexton (formerly ORX750) has demonstrated a potential best-in-class profile in Phase 2a clinical studies across narcolepsy type 1, narcolepsy type 2, and idiopathic hypersomnia. Centessa's OX2R agonist portfolio includes additional clinical and preclinical-stage assets with potential utility across a broader range of neurological, neurodegenerative, and neuropsychiatric conditions."Orexin receptor biology represents one of the most compelling mechanistic opportunities in neuroscience as a direct intervention on the master switch of the sleep-wake cycle. Centessa has assembled a portfolio with the breadth and depth to improve wakefulness across a broad array of indications," said Carole Ho, executive vice president and president, Lilly Neuroscience. "Joining forces with Centessa colleagues means we can now pursue that potential at the speed and scale it deserves.""Centessa is at the forefront of orexin science, and we've built a potential best-in-class portfolio of OX2R agonists with a level of depth and breadth that could help redefine what's possible in neuroscience," said Mario Alberto Accardi, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Centessa and Founder of the Orexin Program. "Driven by a bold vision, our team has advanced an innovative portfolio with the speed, rigor and conviction needed to lead a new era of orexin-based therapeutics. Now, we are thrilled to take our next step toward a potential combination with Lilly who shares our vision. By combining Centessa's team and capabilities with Lilly's global complementary research, clinical, regulatory and commercial capabilities, we will seek to accelerate the advancement of our orexin portfolio across a broad range of neuroscience indications for the benefit of patients in need. I'm incredibly proud of what our team has achieved and deeply grateful to the investigators, study participants, employees and shareholders who have made our progress possible.
