Merck announced on June 9, 2025, that its investigational oral PCSK9 inhibitor, enlicitide, met the main goal of reducing a type of cholesterol in two late-stage studies. This positive outcome marks a significant step forward for Merck's cardiovascular pipeline.
The successful completion of these Phase 3 studies indicates the potential for enlicitide to become a new treatment option for patients with high cholesterol. This could address a large market and contribute substantially to Merck's future revenue.
This development reinforces Merck's commitment to developing innovative solutions for cardiometabolic diseases. The company will likely proceed with regulatory submissions based on these promising results.
