Key findings include:
- No dose-related serious adverse events observed
- 90-hour median half-life supporting once-weekly dosing
- Dose-proportional concentration increases in both single and multiple ascending dose cohorts
- Increased GLP-1 levels within 60 minutes of meal tests
The company plans to initiate Phase 2 studies in PBH patients in the second half of 2025, pending FDA alignment at a mid-2025 End-of-Phase 1 meeting.

The multiple ascending dose study involved 40 participants receiving four once-weekly subcutaneous doses. Key findings showed long half-lives (79-95 hours for prodrug, 184-213 hours for active drug), flat exposure profiles, and dose-proportional increases in serum calcium. The treatment was generally well-tolerated with mostly mild adverse events. The company expects to complete Phase 2 Avail™ trial enrollment in Q1 2025 with topline results in Q3 2025.
MBX Biosciences announced the completion of the last subject's last visit in its Phase 1 trial of MBX 1416, a long-acting GLP-1 receptor antagonist for post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) treatment.

MBX Biosciences presented the design and rationale of its Phase 2 Avail™ trial for MBX 2109, a potential long-acting parathyroid hormone (PTH) peptide prodrug, at the ASBMR 2024 Annual Meeting. The trial targets adults with hypoparathyroidism (HP) and aims to normalize serum calcium levels, reduce the need for vitamin D and calcium supplements, and improve patient convenience. The Phase 2 trial is a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 48 participants. It commenced dosing in August 2024, and topline results are expected in Q3 2025. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients who can discontinue active vitamin D and reduce calcium supplements to ≤600 mg/day while maintaining normal calcium levels. Secondary endpoints include safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and quality of life. An extension study will follow for participants completing the 12-week treatment.
