Confirmation of NovDB2’s
Insulin Sensitivity Improvement Function

Currently, most of the type 2 diabetes medication market is insulin injection or simple blood sugar control drugs, which do not have the effect of improving insulin sensitivity, the underlying cause of diabetes. In the case of the TZD series, the only commercially available insulin sensitivity improving agent, not only risks of cardiovascular disease and bladder cancer but also side effects of weight gain have been identified.

On the other hand, NovDB2 has been confirmed to improve insulin sensitivity in a clinical trial by the US FDA. Also, the superior safety of NovDB2 has been verified in clinical trials such as chronic toxicity and reproductive toxicity conducted in the same clinical trial. On top of such insulin sensitivity improvement function and safety, NovDB2 has proven its unrivaled weight control effect as well.

As a groundbreaking insulin sensitivity improving agent that will change the game in the diabetes medication market, NovDB2 will be presented as a clear solution to the global demand for fundamental diabetes medication.
