About
Helicore Bio is developing long-acting therapies in obesity and cardiometabolic disease using a proprietary antibody-peptide conjugate platform. The company has developed proprietary libraries of GLP-1R agonist and amylin receptor agonist therapeutic peptides, optimized for bias, selectivity, and potency. Its conjugate pipeline is anchored by a proprietary GIP ligand binder antibody that demonstrated safety, tolerability, and target engagement in a Phase 1 study. Helicore programs combine that antibody backbone with distinct proprietary peptide payloads, targeting different patient populations and indications from a single modular platform.
