“Zafgen is building significant momentum across our pipeline in 2018, following intense foundational scientific work in 2017. The positive interim clinical data from our ongoing Phase 2 proof-of-concept trial with ZGN-1061, as well as the initiation of IND enabling studies with ZGN-1258, demonstrate important progress across our two most advanced programs,” said Jeffrey Hatfield, Chief Executive Officer. “Our team has also produced multiple journal publications and scientific conference presentations outlining our scientific progress recently, with the opportunity to present more at the upcoming ADA Scientific Sessions. Additionally, we look forward to announcing full topline data from our Phase 2 ZGN-1061 proof-of-concept trial mid-year 2018 and initiating a Phase 1 clinical trial for ZGN-1258 by year end.”
