Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, has provided an outlook for 2025, highlighting key milestones and achievements. The company is focused on the development of nimacimab, a first-in-class CB1 inhibitor antibody aimed at treating obesity. Key milestones in 2025 include the completion of enrollment in the CBeyond™ Phase 2 obesity trial and the release of interim data in Q2, followed by topline weight loss data in Q4.
In 2024, Skye achieved several milestones, including the launch of the CBeyond™ Phase 2 trial, the first to assess a GLP-1/CB1 inhibitor combination, and the enrollment of 50% of patients by November 2024. Preclinical data showed significant dose-dependent weight loss and fat mass reduction with lean mass preservation. The company also raised $90M in equity financings and expanded its leadership team.

Skye Bioscience has reached over 50% enrollment in its CBeyond™ Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating nimacimab, a CB1 inhibitor for obesity treatment. The study aims to enroll 120 patients across four treatment groups, with interim data expected in Q2 2025. The trial's primary endpoint will measure weight loss compared to placebo, with an exploratory endpoint assessing nimacimab combined with Wegovy®. Nimacimab is highlighted as the most peripherally restricted CB1 inhibitor, showing promising preclinical results with minimal brain accumulation and no neuropsychiatric adverse events in Phase 1 studies.
Skye Bioscience reported Q3 2024 financial results and highlighted the launch of its Phase 2 obesity clinical trial for nimacimab, a CB1-inhibiting monoclonal antibody. The company reported cash position of $76.5 million, including restricted cash of $9.1 million. R&D expenses increased to $4.9 million from $1.3 million year-over-year, while G&A expenses rose to $4.6 million from $2.2 million. Net loss decreased to $3.9 million compared to $24.9 million in Q3 2023. The Phase 2 trial started enrolling patients in August 2024, with interim data targeted for Q2 2025 and topline data for Q4 2025.
Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE) announced preliminary data from a diet-induced obesity (DIO) model study of their CB1-inhibiting antibody, nimacimab. The study demonstrated significant dose-dependent weight loss of up to 16% compared to vehicle control. The experiment used transgenic mice expressing human CB1 receptor, treated with various doses of nimacimab over 35 days. Key findings included dose-dependent weight loss (4.5%, 11.4%, and 16.0%), significant fat mass reduction while preserving lean mass, and improved glucose tolerance. The data suggests peripheral CB1 inhibition drives weight loss without central inhibition's neuropsychiatric risks.
Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE) has scheduled the release of its third quarter 2024 financial results for Thursday, November 7, 2024, after market close. The clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, which focuses on metabolic health therapeutics, will host a conference call at 1:30 p.m. PT/4:30 p.m. ET to discuss the results.

Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE) has commented on Novo Nordisk's Phase 2a top-line data for monlunabant, a small-molecule oral CB1 inverse agonist. The study met its primary endpoint, showing at least 6% placebo-adjusted weight loss at 16 weeks. However, dose-dependent neuropsychiatric side effects were observed.
Skye highlights the advantages of their large-molecule CB1 inhibitor, nimacimab, over small-molecule approaches. Nimacimab has shown minimal brain accumulation in preclinical studies and no neuropsychiatric adverse events in Phase 1 trials. Skye believes nimacimab offers a potential safety advantage due to its peripheral restriction.
Skye's Phase 2 trial of nimacimab in obesity, launched in August 2024, is expected to report interim weight loss data in Q2 2025 and top-line data in Q4 2025. The company remains confident in nimacimab's development plan and its potential for a wider therapeutic index compared to small-molecule CB1 inhibitors.
Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE) has appointed Dr. Puneet S. Arora as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Arora, a board-certified physician in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism, brings over 15 years of experience in clinical trial design and execution.
