A total of 29 abstracts will be presented, including trials investigating the weight loss efficacy of higher dose Wegovy® (semaglutide 7.2 mg) in people with obesity (STEP UP) and those with obesity and type 2 diabetes (STEP UP T2D) as a new option for those in need of greater weight loss. New data will offer additional evidence of the broader cardiovascular and kidney health benefits of semaglutide for people with type 2 diabetes through analyses of the SOUL, STRIDE and FLOW trials, as well as insights from further real-world studies of semaglutide 2.4 mg. The presentation of the CagriSema REDEFINE 1 and 2 trials are the first ever Phase 3 data presented on a GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonist combination, offering insights into the transformational potential of this investigational medicine. Data will also be presented on pipeline candidate amycretin, demonstrating Novo Nordisk’s commitment to obesity innovation and individualised healthcare solutions. On 22 June, Novo Nordisk will also host an R&D investor event on their metabolic and cardiovascular health portfolio to cover the science and abstracts presented at the congress. The event will be accessible via a live webcast on the Novo Nordisk investor website. “Aiming to address individual needs and preferences for better health, we look forward to providing a higher dose of Wegovy® (semaglutide 7.2 mg) for people with obesity in need of more significant weight loss, alongside the broader health benefits seen with semaglutide,“ said Ludovic Helfgott, executive vice president of Product & Portfolio Strategy at Novo Nordisk. “Semaglutide has shown comprehensive and disease-modifying effects across the metabolic and cardiovascular health spectrum, and the data presented at ADA 2025 for Wegovy®, Rybelsus®, and Ozempic® will add to this evidence base as we aspire to a future where semaglutide is a foundational therapy that can provide people with comprehensive protection, early enough to make a difference.” “We recognise the complex interplay between cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes and obesity, which require a personalised treatment approach,” said Martin Holst Lange, executive vice president for Development at Novo Nordisk. “As we look to further build an impactful portfolio of medicines to address patient needs, our data presented at ADA 2025 demonstrates not only how we are already delivering for a wide range of these needs with semaglutide, but that we are continuing to invest in innovation to support people living with serious chronic disease.” Novo Nordisk data overview at ADA 2025: ADA Scientific Sessions: Diabetes and peripheral artery disease—evolving role of GLP-1 RA and new insights from the STRIDE trial - Saturday 21 June; 13:30–15:00 CDTEfficacy and Safety of CagriSema 2.4 mg/2.4 mg in Adults with Overweight/Obesity—The REDEFINE 1 and REDEFINE 2 clinical trials - Sunday 22 June; 8:00–9:30 CDTSOUL trial—effects of oral semaglutide on cardiovascular (and other) outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes at high CV risk - Sunday 22 June; 16:30–18:00 CDT Novo Nordisk poster and oral presentations: Ozempic® (once-weekly semaglutide 1.0 mg) Impact of semaglutide on kidney, cardiovascular, and mortality outcomes by baseline BMI and weight loss in people with T2D and CKD: data from the FLOW Trial.

Publication Only (63-PUB) About semaglutideSemaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), which mimics the effects of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1. Semaglutide has been tested in several robust clinical development programmes and outcome studies in cardiometabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, liver disease and other related cardiometabolic diseases. It has a cumulative exposure of over 33 million patient-years since 2018.1 Semaglutide is marketed under the brand names Wegovy® (once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg injection), Ozempic® (once-weekly semaglutide 1.0 mg injection), and Rybelsus® (once-daily oral semaglutide 14 mg). About CagriSemaOnce-weekly subcutaneous CagriSema is being investigated by Novo Nordisk as a treatment for adults with overweight or obesity (REDEFINE programme) and as a treatment for adults with type 2 diabetes (REIMAGINE programme). CagriSema is a fixed-dose combination of a long-acting amylin analogue, cagrilintide 2.4 mg and semaglutide 2.4 mg. The two molecules induce weight loss by reducing hunger, increasing feelings of fullness, thereby helping people eat less and reduce their calorie intake. About amycretinAmycretin is a unimolecular long-acting GLP-1 and amylin receptor agonist under development by Novo Nordisk, to provide an efficacious and convenient treatment for adults with overweight or obesity and as a treatment for adults with type 2 diabetes. Amycretin is developed for oral and subcutaneous administration. About once-weekly basal insulin icodec Insulin icodec is a once-weekly basal insulin analogue designed to cover the basal insulin requirements for a full week with a single subcutaneous injection. About once-weekly IcoSema Once-weekly IcoSema is a fixed-ratio combination of a once-weekly basal insulin icodec and once-weekly semaglutide (700U/2 mg per millilitre). IcoSema is titrated in the same way as insulin, with a maximum weekly dose of 350 dose steps (ie 350 U insulin icodec/1mg semaglutide).
