SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Structure Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:GPCR), a clinical-stage global biopharmaceutical company developing novel oral small molecule therapeutics for metabolic diseases, with a focus on obesity, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided a business update.

"The obesity market is clearly embracing the introduction of new oral treatment options and Structure Therapeutics is well positioned to capture market share in this important therapeutic area," said Raymond Stevens, Ph.D., CEO of Structure Therapeutics. "In 2025, we delivered positive Phase 2b 36-week data for aleniglipron and advanced ACCG-2671 our first oral small molecule amylin receptor agonist into the clinic. We completed a $748 million financing providing a strong financial balance sheet to continue advancing aleniglipron which has the potential to be best-in-class. Our broad portfolio positions us well in the evolving landscape that we believe will favor more accessible oral small molecules, extended maintenance treatment periods, and fixed dose combinations for specific patient populations and expanded indications. The upcoming 44-week data readout with higher doses in ACCESS II, expected in the first quarter, will provide a more complete profile of aleniglipron as we prepare for Phase 3 this year, with additional data readouts expected throughout 2026."

Recent and Upcoming Milestones

Aleniglipron - Oral Small Molecule Selective Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonist for the Treatment of Obesity and Overweight

As reported in December 2025, data from the aleniglipron clinical program included 36-week data from the core Phase 2b ACCESS study and the exploratory ACCESS II study, as well as interim data from the Phase 2 body composition study and the Phase 2b ACCESS open label extension (OLE) study.

The Phase 2b ACCESS study demonstrated a placebo-adjusted mean weight loss of 11.3% with the 120 mg dose at 36 weeks. No plateau of weight loss was observed.
The exploratory ACCESS II study with higher doses of 180 mg and 240 mg demonstrated a placebo-adjusted mean weight loss of 15.3% with the 240 mg dose at 36 weeks. No plateau of weight loss was observed.
No adverse event-related treatment discontinuations were observed when utilizing the new lower starting titration dose of 2.5 mg in the ACCESS OLE and the Body Composition studies.

Data from the ACCESS, ACCESS II, Body Composition, and the ACCESS OLE studies provide a strong foundation for the decision to advance aleniglipron into Phase 3 clinical development. The Company expects to report topline results from the ACCESS II 44-week study in Q1 2026.

The Company has planned an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to align on a Phase 3 registrational program with a starting titration dose of 2.5 mg and the intent to evaluate multiple maintenance doses. The Company anticipates initiating the Phase 3 program in the second half of 2026.

Supplementary studies enhance competitive profile of aleniglipron:

Ongoing ACCESS OLE study to evaluate the tolerability of the 2.5 mg starting titration dose regimen for those participants rolling over from the placebo arm and to collect up to 72 weeks of data.
Ongoing study to assess the transition from an approved injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist to once-daily oral aleniglipron for weight loss maintenance. This study assesses different aleniglipron starting doses and weight loss maintenance over 12 weeks.
Ongoing body composition study to assess the effect of aleniglipron on body fat loss over a 40-week evaluation period, which includes a 28-week titration period and a starting dose of 2.5 mg. These data will be used to inform the inclusion of potential body composition endpoints and the appropriate number of participants for a sub-study within the Phase 3 program.
Ongoing 38-week study in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with obesity/overweight to evaluate the potential for including participants with T2DM in the Phase 3 obesity program.

Oral Small Molecule Amylin Receptor Agonists

In December 2025, Structure Therapeutics advanced ACCG-2671 into a Phase 1 clinical study as the industry's most advanced oral small molecule amylin therapy for the treatment of obesity. ACCG-2671 is being evaluated in an ongoing single ascending dose (SAD) study to measure safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and food-effect of single ascending doses of ACCG-2671 in healthy adult participants. Data are anticipated in the second half of 2026.
Structure Therapeutics declared a second oral small molecule dual amylin calcitonin receptor agonist development candidate, ACCG-3535. ACCG-3535, which has a unique chemical structure compared to ACCG-2671, demonstrated robust food intake suppression and significant, dose-dependent body weight reduction as a monotherapy in diet-induced obese rats. Combination therapy with semaglutide (both concurrently and as a subsequent add-on to semaglutide) resulted in superior weight loss compared to semaglutide or ACCG-3535 monotherapy. Structure Therapeutics expects to initiate a Phase 1 clinical study of ACCG-3535 in the second half of 2026.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Highlights

Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2025. The Company expects its current cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments to fund projected operations and key clinical milestones through the end of 2028. This includes costs related to the ongoing aleniglipron ACCESS OLE, ACCESS II extension study, the supplementary studies, and Phase 3 registrational program in chronic weight management, but excludes additional costs related to pre-commercialization activities including commercial manufacturing.

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $68.7 million, as compared to $33.5 million for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, R&D expenses were $225.3 million, as compared to $108.8 million for the full year 2024. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily due to increases related to clinical trial costs, preclinical research and development expenses and employee expenses (primarily due to an increase in personnel) to support the advancement of our GLP-1R franchise including aleniglipron and a milestone payment under our collaboration agreement.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $17.6 million, as compared to $13.6 million for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, G&A expenses were $61.6 million, as compared to $49.4 million for the full year 2024. The increase in G&A expenses was primarily due to increases in employee expenses as we expanded our infrastructure to drive and support the growth in our operations.

Other license income: Other license income was $100.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2025, consisting of income from the license of certain patents that cover a class of oral GLP-1 receptor agonists that is different from aleniglipron.

Gains on sale of non-financial assets: Gains on sale of non-financial assets was $10.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2025, consisting of the sale of certain early-stage non-metabolic and non-obesity assets.

Net Income/Loss: Net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $33.0 million, with non-cash share-based compensation expense of $8.1 million, compared to a net loss of $36.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 with non-cash share-based compensation expense of $5.8 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, net loss totaled $141.2 million, with non-cash share-based compensation expense of $29.0 million, compared to $122.5 million for the full year 2024 with non-cash share-based compensation expense of $18.8 million.
