## What Veru does

Veru Inc. is a late clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel medicines for cardiometabolic and inflammatory diseases. Its two late-stage new chemical entities are enobosarm and sabizabulin. Enobosarm is an oral selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) being developed to make weight reduction by GLP-1 RA drugs more tissue selective for fat loss and preservation of lean mass. The company reports a positive Phase 2b QUALITY study of enobosarm in older patients who are overweight or obese and receiving a GLP-1 RA, and plans a Phase 2b PLATEAU trial in patients with obesity receiving tirzepatide (ZEPBOUND). Sabizabulin is an oral microtubule disruptor that the company is exploring for inflammation in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, with a possible small Phase 2 proof-of-concept study in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The company plans to prioritize internal cash and future financing proceeds for enobosarm. Veru sold its FDA-approved FC2 Female Condom on December 30, 2024. The filing describes the company's move from a single-product business to a biopharmaceutical company after its 2016 acquisition of Aspen Park Pharmaceuticals.

| Product or program | What it is | Stage |
|---|---|---|
| Enobosarm | Oral SARM for weight reduction and preservation of lean mass alongside GLP-1 RA therapy | positive Phase 2b QUALITY study; Phase 2b PLATEAU planned |
| Sabizabulin | Oral microtubule disruptor for inflammation in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease | exploring clinical development; small Phase 2 proof-of-concept study planned |
