OPKO Health (OPK) and Entera Bio (ENTX) announced that new pharmacologic and pharmacokinetic in vivo data for investigational oral OPK-88006 tablet treatment has been selected for presentation at the ENDO 2025 annual meeting of the Endocrine Society, taking place July 12-15, 2025 in San Francisco, CA, USA. Oral OPK-88006 is being developed pursuant to a collaboration and license agreement between OPKO and Entera whereby the companies are advancing a proprietary novel dual agonist GLP-1/glucagon peptide as a once-daily tablet treatment and as a weekly subcutaneous injection for patients with obesity, metabolic and fibrotic disorders. The oral program combines OPKO’s proprietary long-acting oxyntomodulin analog and Entera’s proprietary N-Tab technology. OPKO and Entera expect to file an Investigational New Drug application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration later this year for both oral OPK-88006 tablet and a weekly injectable variant of the same molecule, which OPKO intends to develop independently. Phase 1 clinical studies are being planned.
