Septerna, Inc. has surged >315% since May 2025, driven by its GPCR-focused drug discovery and a high-profile collaboration with Novo Nordisk. The SEPT partnership with NOVO targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, with $26.7m Q2 collaboration revenue and a new R&D program initiated. SEP-479, an oral small molecule for hypoparathyroidism, is a differentiated asset with a pivotal Q1 2027 data readout as a key catalyst.

Novo Nordisk and Structure Therapeutics are taking different paths in the obesity market, from a global GLP-1 leader to a clinical-stage challenger with oral therapies.

Structure Therapeutics (GPCR) maintains a Buy rating, driven by strong Phase 2b data for its oral GLP-1 candidate aleniglipron targeting obesity. Aleniglipron demonstrated up to 16.2% weight loss at 44 weeks, a favorable discontinuation rate, and is now in Phase 3 studies with pivotal data expected Q4 2028. GPCR's $1.34bn cash position is expected to fund completion of Phase 3, supporting a runway through key value inflection points despite high R&D burn.

Lilly's strong Q2, GLP-1 momentum and broad pipeline support growth, but valuation and rising competition remain key risks.

Five years after Wegovy's FDA approval, the obesity drug market has evolved rapidly. Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly introduced GLP-1 pills this year and others like Structure Therapeutics and Zealand Pharma are trying to fight for market share.

Structure Therapeutics advances aleniglipron, a potential best-in-class oral GLP-1, into Phase 3 for obesity, supported by strong Phase 2b data. GPCR's $1.5B cash position and a projected cash runway through 2028 underpin its ability to execute pivotal trials and commercial plans. My SOTP analysis yields a fair value of $42.49/share, with aleniglipron's risk-adjusted NPV at $1.34B and pipeline assets included at no additional cost.
