MEOW-1 — OKV-119 in overweight/obese cats

🇺🇸 USA (San Francisco) · Cats · Overweight / obesity (GLP-1 weight loss)

Randomized, placebo-controlled trial of OKV-119, an ultra-long-acting exenatide implant delivering a GLP-1 agonist for up to 6 months from a single in-office implant, in ~50 client-owned overweight/obese cats. First cat dosed December 2025. FDA filing targeted 2027–2028. First-ever GLP-1 weight-loss trial in cats or dogs.
