Overview

Hundreds of peptide candidates are in clinical trials across metabolic, oncology, neurological, and rare disease indications.

Trial Phases

  • Phase I: Safety and dosing in healthy volunteers
  • Phase II: Efficacy signals in target population
  • Phase III: Confirmatory pivotal studies
  • Phase IV: Post-marketing surveillance

Therapeutic Areas

  • Metabolic diseases: GLP-1 agonists, amylin analogs
  • Oncology: Peptide vaccines, drug conjugates
  • Rare diseases: Enzyme replacement therapies
  • Neurology: Neuropeptide-based approaches

Success Rates

Peptide drugs generally show higher success rates than small molecules due to their specificity and safety profiles.
