The wire

  1. 01ClinicalTrials.gov lists NCT07868939, a 68-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of oral VK2735 in adults with type 2 diabetes and BMI at or above 27 kg/m2.
  2. 02An oral incretin from Viking would compete directly with orforglipron and oral semaglutide, and a diabetes-population trial broadens the potential label beyond obesity alone.
  3. 03The registration is not yet recruiting and no efficacy data are reported; the record states only design, duration and start date.
