Northstrive Biosciences Inc., a subsidiary of PMGC Holdings Inc., announced on February 4, 2025, updates for its innovative obesity treatment candidates, EL-22 and EL-32. Both candidates aim to optimize fat loss while preserving muscle mass in patients undergoing weight loss therapies, including GLP-1 receptor agonists.

For EL-22, Northstrive is finalizing preparations for a pre-Investigational New Drug (pre-IND) meeting request with the FDA, anticipating a Type B meeting in Q2 2025. The company has completed necessary translations and compiled preclinical and clinical inquiries from existing data to support this request.

For EL-32, Northstrive has entered into a research agreement with a leading preclinical contract research organization (CRO) to evaluate the candidate as a monotherapy and in combination with semaglutide in diet-induced obese mice. Northstrive will also present EL-22 at the UCLA Obesity Symposium on February 7, 2025.
