Summary of our current one-week oral GLP-1 is an IND under development. This is for informational and research purposes only.


  • The API is modified to resist rapid degradation by the DPP-4 enzyme.
  • We replace the naturally occurring alanine at position 8 with a non-natural amino acid.
  • Structural constraints are introduced to stabilize the alpha-helix structure of the peptide, which increases receptor binding affinity and further protects against enzymatic breakdown.
  • A "tail" is attached that binds reversibly to human serum albumin
  • Next-generation transient permeability enhancers (TPE) or cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are added to increase bioavailability from ~1% offered by SNAC up to 5-10%.
  • Specific enzyme inhibitors are added to neutralize digestive enzymes in the immediate vicinity of the dissolving pill.
  • Tablets are enterically coated to target absorption in the small intestine rather than the stomach
