Business summary
Sagimet Biosciences Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. The Company is engaged in developing therapeutics called fatty acid synthase (FASN) inhibitors that target dysfunctional metabolic pathways in diseases resulting from the overproduction of the fatty acid, palmitate. The Company's lead drug candidate, denifanstat, is an oral, once-daily pill and the selective FASN inhibitor in development for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). In addition to MASH, the Company is evaluating denifanstat in acne and in select forms of cancer, disease areas in which dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism also plays a key role. Denifanstat is being tested in a Phase III clinical trial for moderate to severe acne vulgaris, and a Phase III trial for recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in combination with bevacizumab.

The London Stock Exchange does not disclose whether a trade is a buy or a sell so this data is estimated based on the trade price received and the LSE-quoted mid-price at the point the trade is placed. It should only be considered an indication and not a recommendation.
Trades priced above the mid-price at the time the trade is placed are labelled as a buy; those priced below the mid-price are sells; and those priced close to the mid-price or declared late are labelled 'N/A'.
