Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is doubling down on glucagon-like peptide 1 (“GLP-1”) studies for the 2024 calendar year. “The company is optimistic that the studies will yield positive results, not just in the potential treatment of diabetes but also in weight management, which has been directly linked to diabetes… The company recently received independent third-party ethics review board approval for its GLP-1 human pilot study #2, seeking to explore the oral delivery of GLP-1 drugs. For Lexaria, this marks a significant milestone that brings it closer to offering a more effective and tolerable oral delivery option for diabetes treatment and weight loss management,” reads a recent article. “More GLP-1 drugs sold today are administered by painful and expensive injection devices. More effective and tolerable oral delivery of GLP-1 drugs could be extremely valuable to patients and to industry,” Chris Bunka, Lexaria’s CEO, said. “I am excited about this study; the Lexaria scientific team believes that a dissolvable oral tablet that delivers an effective fraction of semaglutide along with reduced side effects could potentially offer valuable benefits to the pharmaceutical industry that might lead to a higher likelihood of favorable strategic partnering with leading industry players in GLP-1.”
