Fuelled by the global surge in type 2 diabetes and obesity, the GLP-1 market is set to explode from $20 billion in 2024 to $50 billion by 2030, offering vast opportunities for innovation. This webinar provides a deep dive into the latest advancements and best practices in GLP-1 drug development, covering the journey from early discovery synthesis, biology modelling to in-vitro and in vivo testing, and fostering a vibrant exchange of insights between academia and industry.
We'll also explore the shift from daily-multiple to once-weekly dosing, innovations in extended dosing regimens and dual/triple agonisms, and the potential of oral formulations. Join us to uncover interdisciplinary strategies in Biology, Chemistry, and DMPK that are shaping the future of GLP-1 drug development, highlighted through real-world case studies.
