On August 5th, Koo Ja-yong, a researcher at DB Financial Investment, stated, "On August 4th, Hanmi Pharm signed a technology export contract with MSD (Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp) in the U.S. to develop and commercialize HM12525A (efinopegdutide, a GLP-1/GCG dual agonist) as a treatment for NASH. HM12525A is a compound whose rights were returned by Janssen in July 2019 after developing it as an obesity treatment. Although weight loss targets were achieved in Phase 2 clinical trials, blood sugar control in obese patients with diabetes did not meet internal standards, leading to the return of rights. Development of NASH treatments is being approached in various ways." He set Hanmi Pharm's target price at 310,000 KRW.
