    Oral Non-Insulin Agents

    Several oral non-insulin agents are in development or approved that may compete with cadisegliatin for the treatment of type 1 diabetes ("T1D"). These include TIXiMED's TIX-100, a drug candidate targeting thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), a protein elevated in diabetes that has been associated with beta cell death and dysfunction. SGLT-2 inhibitors, including dapagliflozin (Farxiga) and ipragliflozin (Suglat), have received approval in Japan for use in T1D but have not been approved in the United States due to safety concerns, including the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. In late 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") declined to approve Lexicon Pharmaceuticals' sotagliflozin (Zynquista), a dual SGLT-1/SGLT-2 inhibitor, for use in T1D; however, Lexicon continues to pursue regulatory approval for this indication. Additionally, Eli Lilly's JAK inhibitor baricitinib is in clinical development as a potential therapy to delay the onset of clinical stage 3 T1D in high-risk individuals and to preserve beta cell function in patients with newly diagnosed T1D.

  • Manufacturing - Risk 2
    Injectable Agents

    Several injectable agents are currently in development for the treatment of T1D. These include ZT-01, a somatostatin type 2 receptor blocker being developed by Zucara Therapeutics for the treatment of nocturnal hypoglycemia; dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists in development by Carmot Therapeutics and Eli Lilly aimed at improving glycemic control in overweight or obese individuals with T1D; Diasome Pharmaceuticals' liver-targeted HDV Lispro insulin; Adocia's ultrarapid-acting BioChaperone insulin; and volagidemab, a glucagon receptor antagonist being developed by REMD Biotherapeutics.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
