Obesity is arguably the most pressing public health issue in the United States with its chronic progression that is associated with both type 2 diabetes and adverse cardiovascular health. Current therapies have struggled to achieve meaningful weight loss without compromising the overall risk-benefit of intervention. Following a series of high profile market withdrawals, the barren obesity drug landscape saw a relative rush of new treatment options come to market from 2012 to 2017. In this report, endocrinologists reveal how the current generation of antiobesity drugs compare with one another and what attributes the next generation of these agents will need to crack this medically important and potentially lucrative market.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What are the treatment drivers and goals for obesity?
  • What drug attributes are key influencers, which have limited impact, and which are hidden opportunities?
  • How do current therapies perform on key treatment drivers and goals for obesity?
  • What are the prevailing areas of unmet need and opportunity in obesity?
  • What trade-offs across different clinical attributes and price are acceptable to U.S. and European endocrinologists for a hypothetical new obesity drug?
