BioAge Labs, Inc. explores new drugs

BioAge Labs, Inc. CEO Kristin Fortney participated in a panel at Fierce Biotech Week Boston with R&D leaders from Amgen, Novo Nordisk, and Wave Life Sciences to examine the next frontier of obesity and cardiometabolic drug development beyond incretin therapies.

The panel explored strategies for addressing metabolic diseases with emerging mechanisms and highlighted the role of industry collaboration in accelerating clinical progress. Insights from the discussion underscore renewed momentum among biotech firms seeking alternatives to current obesity drug classes.

BioAge Labs has reported Phase 1 trial data showing that its 60 mg BGE-102 dose matches the efficacy of 120 mg in reducing hsCRP levels, according to company findings. The results highlight BioAge’s continued focus on cardiometabolic research. The company’s R&D efforts remain in line with broader industry discussions on obesity and metabolic disease therapies.
