Obesity is a significant public health concern in the United States and Europe. Its chronic progression is associated with type 2 diabetes and adverse cardiovascular (CV) health. Since 2012, several novel branded drugs have entered the market with varying degrees of commercial success. Approved agents include Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy (semaglutide) and Saxenda (liraglutide), Vivus’s Qsymia (phentermine / topiramate), and Nalpropion Pharmaceuticals’ Contrave (naltrexone / bupropion). In this report, endocrinologists compare current antiobesity drugs and discuss the attributes that the next generation of drugs should have to serve this medically important population and to succeed commercially in a potentially lucrative market.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • How do endocrinologists rate current antiobesity drugs, such as Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy and Saxenda?
  • What drug attributes are key influencers, which have limited impact, and which are hidden opportunities?
  • What trade-offs across different clinical attributes and prices are needed from new obesity drugs to be preferred by endocrinologists?
  • How can less-frequent dosing, route of administration, cardiovascular and renal benefit, and efficacy influence physician preference? Discover the answers with Clarivate’s fully customizable Target Product Profile (TPP) simulator.
