TLC-6740 / OrsoBio - LARVOL DELTA

Sequential Combination of the Mitochondrial Protonophore (MP) TLC-6740 with Semaglutide Normalizes Body Weight and Preserves Lean Mass in DIO Mice (ADA 2025) - "In DIO mice, '6740 combo with SEMAlow was more efficacious than SEMAhigh, maintained weight loss post SEMA D/C, and was LM neutral. These data support evaluation of '6740 in combo with incretins in obesity and associated metabolic disorders."

Sequential Combination of the Mitochondrial Protonophore TLC-6740 With Semaglutide Normalizes Body Weight and Preserves Lean Mass in DIO Mice (Businesswire) - "OrsoBio...announced new preclinical data being presented at the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association (ADA)....This preclinical study assessed TLC-6740 alone, in combination with low-dose semaglutide (sequential combination), and as maintenance therapy following semaglutide discontinuation in DIO mice. The sequential combination of TLC-6740 with low-dose semaglutide produced superior body weight and fat mass loss, and improved glycemic parameters compared with TLC-6740 alone and high-dose semaglutide. Initiating TLC-6740 after semaglutide discontinuation maintained body weight and fat mass loss, and glycemic benefits."

TLC-6740, a liver-targeted mitochondrial protonophore, increases energy expenditure and lipid utilisation in obese mice (EASD 2024) - "The protonophore TLC-6740 increases EE, inducing negative energy balance and weight loss. These data support evaluation of TLC-6740 for obesity and highlight the complementarity of this mechanism to agents that reduce oral intake (e.g., incretins)."

Combinations of the mitochondrial protonophore TLC-6740 and/or the ACC2 inhibitor TLC-3595 provide additive glycaemic benefits to glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonist in db/db mice (EASD 2024) - "In db/db mice, TLC-6740 monotherapy improved glucose tolerance, fasting glycemia, and HbA1c similarly to an approved GLP-1RA. Addition of TLC-6740 and/or TLC-3595 to the GLP-1RA improved glycemic parameters, supporting evaluation of the combinations of these agents with approved incretin therapies for diabetes."

OrsoBio to Present Phase 1 Data for the Liver-Targeted Mitochondrial Protonophore TLC-6740 in Development for the Treatment of Obesity at ObesityWeek 2023 (Businesswire) - P1 | N=148 | NCT05822544 | Sponsor: OrsoBio, Inc | "OrsoBio, Inc...today announced preliminary safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) data from the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of an ongoing Phase 1 trial of TLC-6740....In cohorts treated with single doses of TLC-6740... only mild and non-serious adverse events (AEs) were reported....In cohorts treated with single doses of TLC-6740 (3, 6, 15, 30, 60, and 120 mg), only mild and non-serious adverse events (AEs) were reported.....The PK profile of TLC-6740 includes a prolonged half-life (17 to 46 hours), supporting once-daily, oral dosing. Due to liver targeting, plasma concentrations are projected to remain >80-fold below exposures associated with hyperthermia in preclinical studies, providing large safety margins for human use. The results also suggest that low doses of TLC-6740 will reach therapeutic exposures, supporting its potential efficacy for obesity and associated disorders."
