Caliway Biopharmaceuticals Presents Preclinical Research Supporting a Multi-Mechanism Approach to Weight Management at TMASO 2025
Combination of CBL-514 and tirzepatide reduced body weight by 21.8% and fat by over 40% in rats, outperforming incretin monotherapy, study shows.
- On Dec. 15, 2025, Caliway Biopharmaceuticals presented preclinical research on CBL-514 combined with tirzepatide at the 25th Annual Congress of the Taiwan Medical Association for the Study of Obesity held at National Taiwan University Hospital, New Taipei City.
- Researchers argued that targeting adipose tissue biology alongside incretin-based therapies could improve fat distribution and weight loss durability, the scientific community at TMASO 2025 emphasized multi-mechanism strategies beyond appetite control.
- In the animal study design, researchers included an observation period after incretin withdrawal, showing the combination produced greater weight and fat reductions than tirzepatide alone in diet-induced obese rat models.
- Caliway said the findings warrant further clinical investigation of adipocyte-targeted mechanisms to complement incretin pipelines, while Dr. Tzu-Jung Chou stressed more research is needed and company disclosures noted forward-looking statements and associated risks.
- Caliway Biopharmaceuticals, TWSE: 6919, aims to lead innovation as TMASO 2025 experts from Taiwan, Japan and Korea highlight shifts toward durable weight loss and visceral fat reduction.
