Artelo Reports ART27.13 Matches Semaglutide Weight Loss In Obesity Model

Artelo Biosciences (ARTL) reported that ART27.13, a dual cannabinoid receptor agonist, matched semaglutide's weight loss in an obesity model and showed enhanced effects when combined. ART27.13 reduced body weight by 20% alone and 40% with semaglutide, primarily through fat loss. The company plans to explore partnering opportunities for metabolic disease treatments.
