GLP-1 receptor agonists are already reshaping people and healthcare systems for the management of obesity. Treatment paradigms in cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea and MASH are set to be disrupted, but it is not all gravy; weight loss post GLP-1s is often not maintained and not everyone can tolerate their side effects. We share our perspectives on the outlook for the space, including some of the implications for biopharma, service providers and investors.
Radioligand therapies (RLTs) are an emerging class of targeted therapies that could transform the way some cancers are treated. The RLT market is expected to grow significantly over the course of this decade, however several challenges will need to be overcome if the market is to achieve its full potential.
