Insights
Structure Therapeutics reports strong progress on obesity drugs with key readouts approaching, supported by $786.5M cash runway through 2027.
Structure Therapeutics is advancing a promising pipeline of oral small molecule therapies for obesity, positioning itself strategically in the rapidly evolving weight loss market. The company's lead candidate, aleniglipron, an oral GLP-1 receptor agonist, has two fully enrolled clinical trials (ACCESS and ACCESS II) on track for topline data by year-end 2025. These studies are evaluating doses up to 240 mg with slower titration schedules in patients with obesity or overweight with comorbidities.
What's particularly notable is how Structure is expanding its aleniglipron program with three additional studies: (1) a maintenance switching study from injectable GLP-1s to oral aleniglipron, (2) a body composition study measuring fat loss over 40 weeks, and (3) a Type 2 diabetes study. These expansions demonstrate confidence in the drug's profile while strategically positioning it against established injectable competitors by addressing key differentiating factors like maintenance therapy and body composition effects.
The company is also advancing ACCG-2671, potentially the most advanced oral small molecule amylin receptor agonist in development, toward Phase 1 initiation by year-end. Preclinical data showed significant weight loss in animal models, with notable synergistic effects when combined with semaglutide—signaling the company's understanding that combinability is becoming essential in obesity treatment.
Structure's pipeline depth is impressive, with additional oral small molecule programs targeting GIPR, GCGR, APJR, and LPA1R, creating multiple paths for both monotherapy and combination approaches. With $786.5 million in cash and investments as of June 30, the company has sufficient runway through at least 2027, though this excludes Phase 3 costs for aleniglipron.
The significant increase in R&D expenses to $54.7 million (up from $22.1 million in Q2 2024) reflects the company's strategic investment in advancing its obesity pipeline, particularly the aleniglipron program. While net loss widened to $61.7 million compared to $26 million in the same period last year, this reflects planned investment in pipeline development rather than operational concerns.
Structure Therapeutics is smartly positioning oral obesity drugs against injectables with strategic trials and a $786.5M war chest through 2027.
Structure Therapeutics is executing a sophisticated competitive strategy in the lucrative obesity therapeutics market, focusing on oral small molecules to challenge the dominance of injectable GLP-1 receptor agonists. The company's approach recognizes two critical market realities: patients strongly prefer oral medications, and the future of obesity treatment likely lies in combination therapies targeting multiple metabolic pathways.
The expanded aleniglipron development program reveals a nuanced competitive positioning strategy. By initiating a study specifically designed to switch patients from injectable GLP-1s to oral aleniglipron for maintenance therapy, Structure is directly addressing a key market opportunity—long-term maintenance treatment. This positions aleniglipron as a potential follow-on therapy to injectables, creating a strategic entry point in the treatment paradigm even if initial efficacy is somewhat lower than injectables.
The body composition study represents another shrewd competitive move, as it could potentially differentiate aleniglipron by demonstrating favorable fat-to-muscle loss ratios—a growing concern with current therapies. Similarly, the T2DM study strategically expands the potential label to include a high-value patient population.
Structure's multi-target approach with GLP-1, amylin, GIPR, GCGR, and APJR programs demonstrates foresight in building what they call a "highly scalable pipeline" of oral agents that can be used alone or in combination. The emphasis on ACCG-2671's preclinical data showing synergistic effects with semaglutide signals the company's intention to position its products as complementary to, rather than just competitors of, established treatments.
From a financial perspective, the $786.5 million cash position provides runway through 2027 for current programs, though notably excludes Phase 3 costs. The increased R&D spend ($54.7M vs $22.1M year-over-year) reflects appropriate investment intensity for a company at this critical clinical stage. With multiple data readouts approaching, Structure has built a capital-efficient development strategy that balances near-term catalyst generation with long-term pipeline value.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Structure Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: GPCR), a clinical-stage global biopharmaceutical company developing novel oral small molecule therapeutics for metabolic diseases, with a focus on obesity, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, and provided a business update.
“The ACCESS and ACCESS II studies for aleniglipron, our once-daily oral small molecule GLP-1 program, remain on track for topline data readouts by the end of the year,� said Raymond Stevens, Ph.D., CEO of Structure Therapeutics. “With our continued confidence in aleniglipron’s profile, we have initiated additional supplementary studies to ensure we are well positioned for Phase 3 and to maximize the therapeutic and competitive potential of this program. By the end of 2025, we also plan to initiate the Phase 1 study of ACCG-2671, which we believe represents the most advanced oral small molecule amylin agonist in development. As the obesity field shifts towards combinability of multiple targets and long-term weight loss maintenance, we are excited to lead the way with a highly scalable pipeline of oral small molecule medicines designed to address the substantial unmet needs in obesity management and related metabolic diseases.�
Recent and Upcoming Milestones
Aleniglipron (GSBR-1290) -Oral Small Molecule Selective Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonist for the Treatment of Obesity and Overweight
Ongoing Phase 2b ACCESS and Phase 2 ACCESS II Studies
The fully enrolled ACCESS and ACCESS II studies are on track for topline 36-week data readouts by year-end 2025.
- ACCESS enrolled approximately 220 adults living with obesity, or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity, and is designed to evaluate doses up to 120 mg of aleniglipron with a slower four-week titration schedule.
- ACCESS II enrolled approximately 80 adults living with obesity, or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity, and is designed to evaluate higher doses of aleniglipron (180 mg and 240 mg) with a slower four-week titration schedule.
Expanded Data Collection from ACCESS and ACCESS II Studies
Structure Therapeutics has implemented extensions to the ongoing ACCESS and ACCESS II studies:
- ACCESS Open Label Extension (OLE) � All patients in the Phase 2b ACCESS study are provided an option to roll over into the OLE and receive aleniglipron after completing the double-blinded randomized portion of the study. This will allow collection of data on longer-term weight loss effects, expand the overall safety database and provide aleniglipron access to patients enrolled in the blinded portion of the study who opt in to the extension.
- ACCESS II Extension � Following the initial 36-week efficacy evaluation, patients will now continue on their assigned dose to 44 weeks, which allows for collection of an additional eight weeks of double-blinded safety, tolerability, and efficacy data in the study. Overall, this extension will provide additional longer-term data in the two potentially higher dose arms of 180 mg and 240 mg. Per protocol and as previously planned, a formal unblinded efficacy assessment at 36 weeks is expected by year-end 2025.
Three Additional Aleniglipron Studies
Structure Therapeutics is also conducting three new aleniglipron clinical studies as planned that will generate additional data to competitively position aleniglipron and further support the design of the Phase 3 program.
- Phase 2 study to assess a maintenance switching strategy from an approved injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist to aleniglipron � Specifically, this maintenance switching study will evaluate the transition from an approved injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist to once-daily oral aleniglipron for weight loss maintenance. This study will assess the starting dose and the weight loss maintenance over 12 weeks. Enrollment is expected to start in the third quarter of 2025.
- Phase 2 body composition study � This study will assess the effect of aleniglipron on body fat loss over a 40-week evaluation period. These data will be used to incorporate body composition endpoints into the Phase 3 program. Enrollment is expected to start in the third quarter of 2025.
- Phase 2 study in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) � This placebo-controlled study in patients with obesity or overweight and T2DM is anticipated to start in the fourth quarter of 2025. Data from the 38-week study may be used to support the inclusion of a cohort of T2DM in the Phase 3 obesity program.
Oral Small Molecule Amylin Receptor Agonists for the Treatment of Obesity or Overweight with Comorbidities
- ACCG-2671 � Investigational new drug (IND) enabling activities for ACCG-2671 are ongoing; Structure Therapeutics plans to initiate a first-in-human Phase 1 clinical study by year-end 2025.
- New preclinical data for ACCG-2671 was presented in a late-breaking poster session at the American Diabetes Association 85th Scientific Sessions in June 2025. ACCG-2671 demonstrated high binding affinity and balanced potency in human calcitonin receptor and amylin receptor functional assays. In diet-induced obese rats, oral administration of ACCG-2671 resulted in significant, dose-dependent body weight reductions. Combination therapy with semaglutide (both as add-on and concurrent treatment) resulted in superior weight loss compared to monotherapy of either compound.
Oral Small Molecule Metabolic Pipeline and Potential Combinations:
- Oral Small Molecule glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor (GIPR) Program: Structure Therapeutics is developing a GIPR selective agonist and antagonist and GLP-1R/GIPR combinations to treat obesity and related diseases.
- Oral Small Molecule glucagon receptor (GCGR) Program: Structure Therapeutics is developing a GCGR selective agonist and GLP-1R/GCGR combinations for the treatment of obesity and related diseases.
- Oral Small Molecule apelin (APJR) Program: Structure Therapeutics is evaluating ANPA-0073, a Phase 2 ready biased APJR agonist for potential selective or muscle-sparing weight loss. The Company has finished a Phase 1 single-ascending and multiple-ascending dose study, in which ANPA-0073 was generally well-tolerated with no serious adverse events (SAEs) reported. Long-term chronic GLP-toxicology studies are currently underway and expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
Oral Small Molecule Lysophosphatidic Acid 1 Receptor (LPA1R) Program for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
Structure Therapeutics has successfully finished a Phase 1 single and multiple ascending dose clinical study of LTSE-2578, an oral small molecule antagonist that targets the LPA1R for the treatment of IPF. In the study there was no evidence of any dose-dependent LTSE-2578-related adverse events, including clinical, laboratory and electrocardiogram recordings. No SAEs were observed in the study.
