Pharmaceuticals Reports Significant Weight and Fat Reduction With Oral SKNY-1 in Obese Mice, Showing Favorable Lean-Mass and Weight-Regain
Outcomes Compared With Semaglutide
On
October 28, 2026, MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) announced initial positive proof-of-concept results from an
exploratory pilot study evaluating SKNY-1, its investigational oral drug candidate for obesity and metabolic disorders.
Conducted
in an established diet-induced obesity (DIO) mouse model, the study demonstrated statistically significant reductions in body weight
and fat mass following oral administration of SKNY-1 compared with vehicle-treated controls. The study also identified three potentially
meaningful areas of differentiation from the semaglutide reference group:
Food
Intake: Weight reduction occurred without a statistically significant decrease in food
consumption, raising the possibility that SKNY-1 may influence metabolic pathways beyond
appetite suppression. Following treatment discontinuation, oral SKNY-1-treated groups showed
no statistically significant increase in food consumption relative to vehicle controls, while
semaglutide-treated mice demonstrated a statistically significant increase.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Lean-Mass
Outcomes: Oral SKNY-1-treated mice did not demonstrate statistically significant lean-mass
loss relative to vehicle controls, while semaglutide-treated mice demonstrated statistically
significant lean-mass loss compared with vehicle-treated controls.
Weight
Regain Following Treatment Discontinuation: Oral SKNY-1-treated mice demonstrated slow
and limited weight regain during the two-week observation period following treatment cessation,
contrasting with rapid and substantial weight rebound in semaglutide-treated mice.
