Global Clinical Landscape & Future Outlook

The race for DGAT1 therapeutics is intensifying, with major players shifting focus from traditional systemic small molecules to intestine-restricted inhibitors, topical formulations, and combination regimens. As first-generation therapies reach the clinic, the next wave of R&D is targeting localized delivery to mitigate the gastrointestinal side effects historically associated with systemic DGAT1 inhibition.
