This Workshop will explore the evolution of GLP-1 therapeutics, research into new modalities to treat Diabetes, the future of the GLP-1 market, and innovation in GLP-1 agonists. Each session will offer scientific insights that executives at both large and small pharmaceutical firms can use as they evaluate the future business direction of diabetes therapeutics.
Date: May 13-14, 2025
Time: 10:30-12:15pm ET; 1:00-3:00pm ET (each day)
May 13 - Day 1
Get inside the business of one of the currently most impactful and important drug categories and indications – GLP-1 therapeutics for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. On Day 1 we will review the drug class, the scope of the market and what it may still hold in terms of business opportunities. We will look ahead into new modalities in development and get some insight into the complexities of the rapidly expanding space of compounded GLP-1s.
May 14 - Day 2
On Day 2 we examine some key hurdles for the development of modalities in this drug class, look further on the horizon of innovation within and beyond the GLP-1 drug class by also discussing issues like patient adherence as well as the role of biomarkers in the discovery of diabetes and obesity treatments.

Stats Snax discusses basic statistical concepts that apply to the pharmaceutical industry using examples from CMC development areas. Designed for non-statisticians, you will learn foundational concepts that CMC statisticians encounter in their daily interactions with clients.
If you have ever wondered, “What is a p-value?” or “How is expiry determined?” – This series is for you!
Learning Objectives:
- Foundational statistical concepts
- How the topic can be used in daily pharmaceutical operations
- Proper application of statistical concepts, and common misapplication (as appropriate)
