Welcome to our dedicated page for Fractyl Health news (Ticker: GUTS), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Fractyl Health stock.
Fractyl Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: GUTS) is a pioneering metabolic therapeutics company based in Burlington, MA, dedicated to transforming the treatment of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity. The company aims to shift the paradigm from chronic symptomatic management to durable disease-modifying therapies that address the root causes of these conditions at the organ level.
Fractyl Health's leading product candidate, Revita®, focuses on remodeling the duodenal lining through hydrothermal ablation, known as duodenal mucosal resurfacing (DMR). This innovative approach aims to correct abnormal intestinal nutrient sensing and signaling mechanisms, which are potential root causes of metabolic diseases like T2D and obesity. Revita has received a CE mark in Europe and reimbursement authorization in Germany for T2D treatment. In the United States, Revita is for investigational use only. The company is currently enrolling patients in pivotal studies such as Revitalize-1 and Remain-1 to further investigate the efficacy of Revita.
Additionally, Fractyl Health's Rejuva® platform is in the preclinical development stage, focusing on next-generation adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based, locally delivered gene therapies. The platform aims to offer novel, disease-modifying therapies that target the pancreas, leveraging advanced delivery systems and proprietary screening methods.
Recently, Fractyl Health presented new preclinical data from its Rejuva platform at the Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2024, showcasing the potential of GLP-1 based pancreatic gene therapy to reduce liver fat in diet-induced obesity models. The company also shared impressive 6-month follow-up data from its German real-world registry study of Revita for T2D, highlighting significant improvements in blood sugar levels, body weight, and medication burden among participants.
Fractyl Health continues to advance its mission with promising research and active participation in major medical conferences. The company’s strategic goals include progressing towards regulatory approvals and expanding clinical studies to validate their innovative therapies.

Fractyl Health (NASDAQ: GUTS) presented promising preclinical data for RJVA-001, their Rejuva® Smart GLP-1™ pancreatic gene therapy, at WCIRDC. The study demonstrated successful delivery in Yucatan pig models using an endoscopic ultrasound-guided system. Key findings include:
- Achieved therapeutically relevant GLP-1 expression in pancreatic beta cells at low viral doses (6e13 vg per pig)
- Expression levels were five times higher in treated vs untreated animals (p< 0.02)
- No adverse safety effects observed
- Pancreatic lipase remained in normal range
The company plans to initiate first-in-human studies in the first half of 2025. Previous mouse studies showed RJVA-001's potential to maintain improvements in weight and blood glucose levels after discontinuing semaglutide treatment.
Fractyl Health (Nasdaq: GUTS), a metabolic therapeutics company, announced it will present new preclinical data from its Rejuva® platform at the 2024 Poster Session of the 22nd World Congress Insulin Resistance, Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease (WCIRDC).

Fractyl Health (GUTS) presented new preclinical data for its Rejuva RJVA-001 single-administration GLP-1 pancreatic gene therapy candidate. The 13-week study in diet-induced obesity mice showed sustained weight maintenance and blood sugar control, with over 10% of islet cells expressing GLP-1 protein and no safety concerns. The company also announced RJVA-002, a GIP/GLP-1 dual agonist, as its first pancreatic gene therapy candidate for obesity. This AAV9 viral vector expresses human GIP and GLP-1 hormones from a human insulin promoter, targeting both receptors important for blood sugar and weight regulation.
