Lepu Medical Technology Gains NMPA Approval for Obesity and Diabetes Treatments MWN109 and MWN105

China-based Lepu Medical Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd (SHE: 300003), a leading provider of cardiovascular disease solutions, has announced that it has received clinical approvals from the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for its innovative therapies, MWN109 and MWN105. Both treatments are indicated for overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes, marking a significant advancement in the company’s pipeline.

MWN109: A Novel Triple Agonist Peptide
MWN109 is a groundbreaking triple agonist peptide that targets the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and glucagon (GCG) receptors. This novel approach to diabetes management aims to provide a more comprehensive treatment option by addressing multiple pathways involved in glucose regulation and insulin secretion.

MWN105: A Triple-Targeting Fusion Protein
MWN105 is a triple-targeting fusion protein that combines the actions of GIP, GLP-1, and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). This unique therapy is designed to offer a multifaceted approach to managing obesity and type 2 diabetes by targeting key metabolic pathways and enhancing the body’s natural responses to glucose and energy balance.

Implications for Diabetes and Obesity Treatment
The approvals of MWN109 and MWN105 by the NMPA underscore Lepu Medical Technology’s commitment to innovation in diabetes and obesity treatment. These therapies have the potential to transform the treatment landscape by offering patients more effective and targeted options for managing these chronic conditions.-Fineline Info & Tech
