HANGZHOU, China–(BUSINESS WIRE)–HighField Biopharmaceuticals, a clinical stage company using lipid-based therapeutics to treat cancer, diabetes and other diseases, announced today that its abstract of preclinical data evaluating an mRNA-based GLP-1R agonist (HFG1) in diabetic monkeys has been accepted for a poster presentation at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 84th Scientific Sessions June 21-24, 2024, in Orlando, FL. The abstract also will be published on the website of the ADA’s journal Diabetes.
“We are very excited to introduce our unique lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-mRNA complex, HFG1, to the thousands of clinicians and researchers attending this year’s Scientific Sessions from around the world,” said HighField CEO and Scientific Founder Yuhong Xu, Ph.D. “The components of HFG1’s LNP complex were designed to provide consistent expression of a GLP-1R agonist for diabetes and weight loss.
