Announcement
Biomea Fusion, Inc. announced new preclinical findings from a 28-day weight loss study in obese non-human primates evaluating BMF-650, the Company's investigational, next-generation oral small molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA).
AI Summary
Biomea Fusion, Inc. recently shared promising preclinical data for its investigational drug BMF-650, a next-generation oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) for obesity treatment. In a 28-day study with 15 obese cynomolgus monkeys, BMF-650 was administered orally at 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg. Researchers observed a clear, dose-dependent reduction in daily food intake and progressive weight loss, with the lower and higher doses achieving approximately 12% and 15% weight reduction from baseline, respectively. These results highlight the drug’s potential to replicate potent metabolic benefits while offering improved oral bioavailability and consistent plasma exposure. Given that the GLP-1 receptors in monkeys are functionally similar to those in humans, the findings support further clinical development of BMF-650 as a promising, patient-friendly treatment for obesity.

icovamenib - FDA Regulatory Timeline and Events
icovamenib is a drug developed by Biomea Fusion for the following indication: For 2 diabetes.
This drug is under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Below is a timeline of key regulatory milestones for this therapy.
- Drug:
- icovamenib
- Announced Date:
- June 23, 2025
- Indication:
- For 2 diabetes
Announcement
Biomea Fusion, Inc. announced the presentation of new preclinical and clinical data for icovamenib, the company's investigational oral menin inhibitor, at the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) June 20–23, 2025 in Chicago.
AI Summary
Biomea Fusion, Inc. presented fresh preclinical and clinical findings for its investigational oral menin inhibitor, icovamenib, at the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association in Chicago. The new data show that when icovamenib is combined with low-dose semaglutide, it significantly enhances glycemic control and promotes extra weight loss. In a rodent type 2 diabetes model, the combination led to better blood glucose reduction and fat loss while fully preserving lean body mass compared to semaglutide alone.
Clinical results from the Phase II COVALENT-111 trial revealed a 1.0% placebo-adjusted HbA1c reduction and a 55% increase in C-peptide levels three weeks after the last dose, suggesting improvement in beta cell function. These findings indicate that icovamenib may work through a novel mechanism to restore beta cells and, when paired with other therapies, could offer a promising approach to diabetes care.

Announcement
Biomea Fusion, Inc. announce compelling results from in vivo studies of icovamenib in combination with semaglutide.
AI Summary
Biomea Fusion, Inc. announced compelling preclinical results from in vivo studies using icovamenib combined with semaglutide. The study, conducted on a diabetic rat model, showed that the combination led to an 11.5% greater reduction in body weight and a 43% increase in lean muscle mass compared to semaglutide alone. Researchers also found that the combination therapy doubled C-peptide production per unit of glucose, leading to a 60% more effective reduction in fasting blood glucose levels. These results indicate that icovamenib can enhance the benefits of GLP-1-based treatments like semaglutide, improving glycemic control and potentially lowering the necessary dose of semaglutide. Biomea Fusion’s Chief Medical Officer highlighted that these findings could pave the way for better management of diabetes, offering hope for improved treatment regimens and fewer side effects for patients. Further data will be presented at the upcoming J.P. Morgan Conference.

- Indication:
- For 2 diabetes
Announcement
Biomea Fusion, Inc. announced positive topline results from the ongoing COVALENT-111 study, evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of icovamenib in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
AI Summary
Biomea Fusion recently announced promising topline results from the ongoing COVALENT-111 study testing icovamenib, an oral covalent inhibitor, in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study met its primary endpoint by achieving a statistically significant, placebo-corrected reduction in HbA1c levels. In particular, patients with beta-cell deficiency who were already on one or more antidiabetic agents experienced a notable 1.47% reduction in HbA1c after 12 weeks of dosing with 100 mg of icovamenib. These results suggest that the treatment can effectively lower blood sugar levels and improve glycemic control in this subgroup of patients.
Icovamenib was also well tolerated, with no adverse-event-related discontinuations, hypoglycemic events, or serious adverse events reported during the study. The favorable safety and efficacy data highlight the potential of icovamenib as a new treatment option for T2D, and the company plans to further develop this novel approach to diabetes care.
