MetaVia Stock (NASDAQ:MTVA)

Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, MetaVia Inc. operates as a clinical-stage biotechnology company with a core focus on discovering and commercializing novel pharmaceutical solutions for cardiometabolic disorders. Its leading investigational drug, DA-1241, a unique G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 119 agonist, is currently undergoing Phase 2a clinical trials for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH).

Another significant asset, DA-1726, an innovative oxyntomodulin analogue that functions as a dual agonist for GLP-1 and glucagon receptors, is presently in preclinical development specifically for treating obesity. MetaVia's broader therapeutic pipeline also includes ANA001, a distinct oral niclosamide formulation intended for moderate COVID-19 patients; NB-01, designed to address painful diabetic neuropathy; NB-02, targeting cognitive impairment; and Gemcabene, for the management of dyslipidemia. The company engages in strategic partnerships, notably a licensing agreement with Pfizer Inc. for the research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of Gemcabene. Additionally, a joint research collaboration with Dong-A ST and ImmunoForge supports the advancement of DA-1726. The entity adopted its current name, MetaVia Inc., in November 2024, transitioning from its former identity as NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
