Non-IFRS Financial Information

Adjusted Net Profit/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) per share

These are used by Management to measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. Management believes these measures provide information that is useful to investors because they are important indicators of the strength of the Company’s operations and the performance of its core business. Accordingly, such measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted Net Profit/(Loss) is calculated as Net Profit/(Loss) less the impact of impairment expenses and reversals, write-downs, foreign exchange (gains)/losses, gain on sale of assets and listing costs.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a valuable indicator of its ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flows to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA less the impact of impairment expenses and reversals, write-downs, gains/losses on disposal of assets, listing costs, foreign exchange gains/losses and other non-recurring costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

Cash Costs and AISC

Cash Costs are a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry; however, it has no standard meaning under IFRS. Management uses this measure to monitor the performance of the Company’s mining operations and its ability to generate positive cash flows, both on an individual site basis and an overall company basis. Cash Costs include mine site operating costs plus indirect taxes and selling cost net of by-product allocations and are then divided by ounces sold. In calculating Cash Costs, the Company includes the value of cash-settled stock-based compensation in the year of vesting. Cash Costs are reduced by copper and silver by-product cost allocations that are considered incidental to the gold production process, thereby allowing Management and other stakeholders to assess the net costs of gold production. The measure is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under IFRS or operating costs presented under IFRS.

Management believes that the AISC measure provides additional insight into the costs of producing gold by capturing all of the expenditures required for the discovery, development and sustaining of gold production and allows the Company to assess its ability to support capital expenditures to sustain future production from the generation of operating cash flows, both on an individual site basis and an overall company basis, while maintaining current production levels. Management believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow per ounce sold. AISC is calculated as the sum of Cash Costs, capital expenditures and exploration costs that are sustaining in nature and corporate G&A costs. AISC is divided by ounces sold to arrive at AISC per ounce.

Artprice News: The Lyon Biennale 2026 redefines the driving forces of international contemporary art

PARIS, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In autumn 2026, in the wake of the Venice Biennale, the Lyon Biennale of Contemporary Art establishes itself as one of the major events on the international artistic calendar.

18th Lyon Biennale Contemporary Art - 2026
18th Lyon Biennale Contemporary Art – 2026

As France’s leading contemporary art event, each edition brings together nearly 300,000 visitors and generates more than 2.7 million encounters with artworks in public space, affirming a unique model in which artistic production, dissemination, territorial engagement and international reach converge on a large scale.

More than an exhibition, the Lyon Biennale now constitutes an international platform of influence, situated at the intersection of artistic scenes, institutions, collectors, foundations, professionals and global economic dynamics.

After Venice, Lyon: a new centre of gravity for the global art scene

The 18th Lyon Biennale of Contemporary Art will take place at the heart of autumn 2026, at a strategic moment within the international contemporary art calendar. It extends, shifts and reactivates the major artistic conversations initiated in Venice, grounding them within a singular territory: Lyon, a city of passages, exchanges and transformations.

Within this urban, historical and economic geography, the Biennale transforms Lyon into a full-scale space for experimentation, where artworks engage in dialogue with heritage, industrial, museum and public sites.

Catherine Nichols: an international curatorial voice on the rise

The 18th edition is entrusted to Catherine Nichols, a Berlin-based curator, writer and art historian. She was recently appointed Artistic Director of Manifesta, within the framework of a new co-directorship model that will come into effect from October 2026 onward.

With Passer d’un rêve à l’autre, Catherine Nichols develops an ambitious project centred on the notion of “poetic economy,” inspired by Robert Filliou. Here, the economy is not approached merely as a financial system: it becomes a sensitive infrastructure composed of relationships, flows, narratives, visible and invisible labour, and material as well as immaterial values.

Rooted in Lyon’s history — a city shaped by commerce, circulation, silk production, industry and confluences — this reflection takes on both a local and profoundly global dimension.

An expanded artistic cartography: new scenes, new narratives

Bringing together more than 70 international artists, this edition is distinguished by a strong openness toward artistic scenes still insufficiently represented in Europe, particularly from Australia and New Zealand, and spanning more than thirty nationalities. These territories engage in dialogue with the French and European scenes within a framework that brings together major figures, established artists and emerging voices.

The Biennale thus constructs an expanded artistic cartography in which questions of value, care, heritage, production and transformation run across practices, generations and geographies.

Artists – (full list to be completed in June)

Akwasi Bediako Afrane, Lara Almarcegui, Joël Andrianomearisoa, Serwah Attafuah, Béatrice Balcou, Eva Barto, Lucy Beech, Rossella Biscotti, Barbara Breitenfellner, Yuriyal Eric Bridgeman, Sara Sejin Chang (Sara van der Heide), Fiona Clark, Lua Coderch, Léa Collet, June Crespo, cyan, Edith Dekyndt, Huong Dodinh, Yana Nafysa Dombrowsky-M’baye, Mikala Dwyer, Robert Filliou, Florian Fouché, Rose Frigière, Angela Goh, Birke Gorm, Nuria Güell, Alice Guy, Oda Haliti, Archana Hande, Matthew Harris, Timo Hogan, Ngahina Hohaia, Jelena Jureša, Lucia Kagramanyan, Kirtika Kain, Mikhail Karikis, Ndayé Kouagou, Perrine Lacroix, Maureen Lander, Ida Lawrence, James Lewis, LYL Radio, Kokou Ferdinand Makouvia, Nicholas Mangan, Angelica Mesiti, Hana Miletić, Hayley Millar Baker, Jazz Money, Mai Nguyen-Long, Manfred Paul, Thea Anamara Perkins, Susan Philipsz, Laure Prouvost, raumlaborberlin, Miguel Rothschild, Selma Selman, Erwan Séné, Igor Šimić, Sriwhana Spong, Tina Stefanou, Mette Sterre, Michael Stevenson, Pol Taburet, Huda Takriti, Tsuneko Taniuchi, Ashleigh Taupaki, Minh Lan Tran, Thu-Van Tran, Álvaro Urbano, Kaylene Whiskey, Luke Willis Thompson, Candrani Yulis.

About the Lyon Biennale

For more than forty years, the Lyon Biennale has organised two major events on the cultural scene in France and internationally: the Biennale of Contemporary Art and the Dance Biennale.

As the institution responsible for the conception, programming and implementation of these two events, the Lyon Biennale is today recognised as one of the major international events dedicated to contemporary creation. It enjoys strong recognition among professionals, the press and audiences alike.

Its commitment is based on four core missions: an ethical mission, through the development of a sensitive relationship to the world via visual arts and dance; a social mission, through openness to all audiences and the creation of social bonds; an economic mission, through its contribution to the visibility and attractiveness of the territory; and a CSR mission, through a socially responsible approach toward all its stakeholders.

Creativity, excellence, rigour, solidarity, social diversity and inclusivity lie at the heart of the Lyon Biennale project.

Governance

  • President: Laurent Bayle
  • Chief Executive Officer: Cécile Bourgeat
  • Artistic Director of the Lyon Biennale of Contemporary Art: Isabelle Bertolotti
  • Curator: Catherine Nichols

The 2026 Lyon Biennale embodies a unique model and has established itself as a must-attend event on the international scene. Twenty-six years after their first collaboration, Artprice by Artmarket and La Demeure du Chaos are partnering with the 18th Lyon Biennale.

A must-attend event on the international Art calendar, the Lyon Biennale has established itself, following in Venice’s footsteps, as much more than an exhibition: a platform of influence where artists, institutions, collectors, foundations, and key players in the global Art Market converge.

Twenty-six years after “Partage d’Exotisme”- the legendary 2000 Biennial curated by Jean-Hubert Martin, which served as a follow-up to his famous 1989 exhibition “Les Magiciens de la Terre” at the Centre Georges Pompidou and caused a sensation in the West. This Biennial brought together Artprice by Artmarket and La Demeure du Chaos as patrons for the first time. In 2026, they will once again join the Lyon Contemporary Art Biennial as committed partners for its 18th edition.

Thierry Ehrmann, founder of Artprice, president of Artmarket, and visual artist for over four decades, creator of La Demeure du Chaos – officially recognized on March 20, 2025 as a “Total Work of Art” by Minister of Culture Rachida Dati, applauds the significance of this Biennale of Contemporary Art, which engages with the geographical and economic characteristics of the city of Lyon.

It is in this spirit that the two entities are joining forces to support the work of Selma Selman, an artist who employs performance, painting, photography, and video to embody the struggles of her community, questioning the value of labor, objects, and bodies. She extracts the hidden poetry from industrial materials – and reminds us that beauty, too, is born of Chaos.

Global Millennial Capital Raises USD 100 Million to Fund New-Age Technology Leaders in Underpenetrated Mid-Cap Segments

GMCL’s IPO Opportunities Fund targets investments in AI, decentralized finance technologies, and new-age energy solutions in companies with a market capitalization between USD 5 billion and USD 20 billion

BOSTON, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global Millennial Capital Ltd. (GMCL) has announced the final closure of its inaugural IPO Opportunities Fund at USD 100 million, raised through a private placement offering to institutional and professional investors. The fund is designed to provide exposure to late-stage, technology-driven companies approaching potential liquidity events, with a particular focus on mid-cap businesses typically valued between USD 5 billion and USD 20 billion. These segments are increasingly attractive as technology adoption accelerates, yet capital allocation remains less concentrated compared to large-cap markets.

Global Millennial Capital Raises USD 100 Million to Fund New-Age Technology Leaders in Underpenetrated Mid-Cap Segments

The launch of the fund reflects a broader structural shift in global capital markets. Technology companies are remaining private for longer periods while achieving greater scale, revenue visibility, and operational maturity before entering the public markets. This dynamic has created a distinct opportunity for investors to access high-quality companies at a stage where risk is more defined than early-stage investing, while still retaining meaningful upside potential.

According to Andreea Danila, Head of Investment and Research at Global Millennial Capital, the expansion of mid-cap technology businesses is particularly evident at the intersection of artificial intelligence, decentralized finance technologies, new age energy solutions, and data. These companies, while often overlooked by both large-cap allocators and early-stage investors, are increasingly positioned at critical inflection points in their growth trajectories. The fund’s strategy is therefore focused on identifying and supporting such businesses during the final stages of value creation ahead of an IPO or strategic transaction.

The fund’s sector focus reflects areas where technology is driving systemic change across both financial services and the real economy. Key themes include artificial intelligence, decentralized finance, cybersecurity, enterprise software, and next-generation energy infrastructure. These sectors are increasingly interconnected, with advances in data, automation, and digital infrastructure reshaping how capital is allocated, how services are delivered, and how value is created.

The investor base of the GMCL IPO Opportunities Fund reflects global capital flows into technology and innovation. Participants include family offices and institutional investors from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar, alongside existing GMCL investors and international wealth management partners. The fund is designed to provide diversified exposure across geographies and business models.

Global Millennial Capital’s investment team brings experience across venture capital, private equity, and capital markets, with particular expertise in managing investments through the transition from private to public ownership. This includes structuring late-stage investments, assessing IPO readiness, and navigating liquidity pathways, including both public listings and strategic exits.

19.3% Weight Reduction, 16.5 cm Waist Circumference Decrease, SBP/DBP Reductions of 22.9/12.9 mmHg, 70.7 μmol/L Uric Acid Reduction, and 33.6% Triglyceride Reduction: BGM0504 Demonstrates Comprehensive Cardiometabolic Regulation Capabilities

SUZHOU, China, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, BrightGene Bio-Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “BrightGene Bio-Medical ” or “the Company”) announced that its proprietary GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1)/GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) dual receptor agonist, BGM0504 injection, has achieved positive topline results from a Phase III clinical trial (CTR20243983/NCT06704581) evaluating its efficacy and safety in participants with overweight or obesity.

Against the backdrop of intensifying global competition in weight management therapeutics and clinical efficacy approaching a plateau, industry focus is gradually shifting from the singular metric of “magnitude of weight loss” toward comprehensive cardiometabolic benefits and population coverage capabilities that offer greater clinical value and real-world translational impact. Consequently, the evaluation framework for weight management drugs is undergoing a fundamental transformation.

Overview of Phase III Clinical Trial Results of BGM0504 Injection in Weight-Reduction
Overview of Phase III Clinical Trial Results of BGM0504 Injection in Weight-Reduction

Phase III data for BGM0504 demonstrated that while achieving a mean significant weight reduction of 19.3% and a waist circumference decrease of 16.5 cm, the hypertensive population experienced mean reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure of 22.9 mmHg and 12.9 mmHg, respectively, from baseline after 36 weeks of treatment. After 52 weeks of treatment, participants achieved a mean uric acid reduction of 70.7 μmol/L, with total body bone mineral density/lumbar spine bone mineral density/hip bone mineral density increasing by 0.3%, 1.4%, and 3.9%, respectively. Blood lipids, blood glucose, and other cardiometabolic parameters also demonstrated outstanding comprehensive improvement capabilities. Furthermore, while achieving robust efficacy, BGM0504 injection demonstrated exceptional overall tolerability, with the high-dose group showing a discontinuation rate of only 0.7%.

Against the backdrop of simultaneous improvements in weight reduction, waist circumference, blood pressure, uric acid, bone mineral density, and multiple metabolic parameters, BGM0504 has evolved beyond the attributes of a singular weight management tool to embody comprehensive cardiometabolic regulation capabilities oriented toward long-term chronic disease management.

19.3% Weight Reduction and 16.5 cm Waist Circumference Decrease: Exceptional Weight and Fat Loss Capabilities Demonstrated Simultaneously

As weight reduction enters a plateau phase, competition is shifting toward overall capabilities, with weight loss magnitude alone no longer sufficient to create significant differentiation. BGM0504 achieved a 19.3% weight reduction over a 52-week treatment period, positioning it at the upper end of the topline range for global dual-target mechanisms.

Cross-dose comparisons reveal that BGM0504 demonstrates significant leadership over competing products at the low-dose level, maintains its advantage at the mid-dose level, and reaches the upper limit of the industry range at the high-dose level. BGM0504 exhibits a clear efficacy signal at the low dose (5 mg), with further enhancement at higher doses while maintaining relatively stable tolerability. This characteristic of “low-dose efficacy with dose-dependent enhancement” represents a meaningful point of differentiation among current competing products. In contrast, some competing products rely more heavily on mid-to-high doses to demonstrate efficacy, with relatively limited performance and disclosure at low-dose levels.

This characteristic holds multiple implications for clinical practice. On one hand, the ability to produce substantial weight reduction at low doses helps build patient confidence early in treatment and reduces reliance on rapid dose escalation, thereby achieving a better balance between efficacy and tolerability. On the other hand, it enables potential application to a broader patient population. For example, in individuals who have not yet reached severe obesity criteria but have developed metabolic abnormalities or weight-related risks, low-dose intervention may serve as a more gentle initial therapeutic approach.

Evaluating a weight management drug requires looking beyond weight reduction data to assess comprehensive outcomes, particularly changes in body shape. Waist circumference reduction reflects visceral fat loss and body shape transformation, addressing the core needs of most individuals seeking weight loss. Beyond body weight, waist circumference—a key indicator of visceral fat—also demonstrated superior results, with participants in the 15 mg dose group achieving a reduction of 16.5 cm, significantly outperforming competing products.

This result indicates that its efficacy has extended from “weight change” to “risk profile improvement.” Consequently, BGM0504 not only ranks in the top tier for magnitude of weight reduction, but also demonstrates advantages of earlier onset, greater waist circumference reduction, and more superior efficacy in fat distribution, a dimension that is closer to the essence of the disease.

In the dimension of “who can help more people lose weight,” BGM0504’s advantage is even more pronounced. The proportion of participants achieving ≥5% weight loss from baseline reached 84.7%, 89.8%, and 94.6% in the 5 mg, 10 mg, and 15 mg dose groups, respectively.

In the more clinically meaningful deep weight loss ranges (≥15%, ≥20%), this advantage is further amplified. In the 15 mg group, 67.3% of participants achieved ≥15% weight loss, and 48.9% achieved ≥20% weight loss—nearly half of patients achieving deep weight loss, approaching the intervention range of bariatric surgery. This indicates that its clinical value is extending from “weight management” to “metabolic state remodeling.”

Overall, BGM0504’s core competitive advantage has shifted from “how much weight is lost” to “how much waist circumference is reduced,” and ultimately to “enabling more people to achieve stable weight loss and enter the deep weight loss range.” As the industry transitions from “single-point magnitude competition” to “population-level efficacy and real-world translation,” the comprehensive advantages demonstrated by BGM0504 are emerging as the new competitive differentiator.

SBP/DBP Reductions of 22.9/12.9 mmHg with 92.9% Target Achievement Rate, Demonstrating Antihypertensive Intervention Potential

Beyond weight reduction and waist circumference, blood pressure changes represent another noteworthy dimension in this dataset. Lilly’s tirzepatide and Novo Nordisk’s semaglutide did not fully investigate this population in their Phase III trials. The enrollment design itself reflects a higher level of clinical ambition. On one hand, over 60% of individuals with obesity have comorbid hypertension; the study’s inclusion of patients with comorbid hypertension makes the results more aligned with the common real-world clinical scenario of “obesity + hypertension.” On the other hand, the disclosure not only reports the magnitude of blood pressure reduction but also presents the blood pressure target achievement rate, elevating blood pressure from merely a “concomitant improvement” to a parameter with complete evaluative information.

In the population with comorbid hypertension and uncontrolled blood pressure, mean systolic blood pressure decreased by 22.9 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 12.9 mmHg, with 92.9% of patients achieving target blood pressure. In contrast, previous studies of similar drugs have predominantly presented blood pressure outcomes as trend changes, with relatively limited systematic disclosure of target achievement rates. Therefore, these results provide a complementary perspective in terms of data completeness.

In clinical practice, monotherapy with a single antihypertensive agent (ACEI [angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, such as captopril]/ARB [angiotensin II receptor blocker, such as valsartan]/CCB [dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, such as nifedipine]/diuretic [such as hydrochlorothiazide]) typically achieves only approximately 8–12 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure. Reductions exceeding 20 mmHg often require multi-mechanism combination therapy. It is important to note that this change was observed in the more challenging population of individuals with obesity and comorbid hypertension, who typically present with insulin resistance and multiple metabolic abnormalities, making blood pressure control relatively more difficult. Therefore, the simultaneous observation of improvements in both body weight and blood pressure in this population holds meaningful clinical reference value.

From a broader chronic disease management perspective, hypertension and diabetes are highly comorbid in clinical practice and jointly contribute to the development and progression of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. According to guideline stratification, hypertensive patients with comorbid diabetes are often directly classified into higher risk categories, requiring more stringent blood pressure control targets and more urgent intervention. In this context, if metabolic intervention can simultaneously impact body weight, blood pressure, and glycemic parameters, it may produce synergistic effects on multiple metabolic abnormalities at early stages of risk. This characteristic makes the application value of these data in the continuum of “obesity—hypertension—glycometabolic abnormalities” worthy of further attention.

Additionally, its safety profile is equally noteworthy. Despite the substantial magnitude of blood pressure reduction, no hypotensive events were observed during the study, suggesting that the blood pressure changes occurred in a generally stable manner. From a mechanistic perspective, this result more closely resembles comprehensive changes driven by metabolic improvement rather than a singular antihypertensive pathway.

Therefore, against the backdrop of synergistic changes in weight reduction, blood pressure, and multiple metabolic parameters, BGM0504 demonstrates not only improvement in individual indicators but also coordinated effects across multiple metabolic risk factors. This characteristic provides a new observational dimension for its potential application in metabolism-related risk management.

Uric Acid Reduction of 70.7 μmol/L, Demonstrating Potential Gout Benefit Capability

Beyond blood pressure, other metabolic parameters such as uric acid also demonstrated consistent improvement trends.

Uric acid, a metabolic parameter closely associated with gout, also demonstrated clinically meaningful improvement signals. Data showed that BGM0504 treatment resulted in a mean uric acid reduction of approximately 70.7 μmol/L, a magnitude that has entered the intervention range of clinical therapeutics. In the treatment of hyperuricemia, conventional urate-lowering therapies (such as the xanthine oxidase inhibitor febuxostat and the uricosuric agent benzbromarone) typically achieve reductions of approximately 60–120 μmol/L.

Note: Uric acid-lowering drugs are indicated for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout. BGM0504 acts via a metabolic intervention pathway with different indications. The data are for magnitude reference only and do not constitute a therapeutic efficacy comparison.

Generally, a reduction of approximately 60 μmol/L in uric acid can significantly decrease the risk of gout attacks. Therefore, this result indicates that its effect extends beyond metabolic parameter improvement and may translate into intervention potential for gout risk.

Furthermore, compared to tirzepatide (SURMOUNT-1 study), BGM0504 demonstrated stronger and more balanced improvement trends across multiple core lipid parameters.

For triglycerides, BGM0504 achieved a reduction of approximately 33.6%, significantly superior to tirzepatide’s 24.8%, with a gap of nearly 9 percentage points. This has entered the 20%–50% range of action typical of traditional lipid-lowering agents, demonstrating an intervention intensity comparable to standard lipid-lowering agents. Additionally, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased by approximately 12.7%, superior to tirzepatide’s 5.8% reduction, while total cholesterol decreased by approximately 7.4%, exceeding tirzepatide’s 4.8%. Based on rough calculations of the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, this atherosclerosis-related ratio decreased by approximately 18.6% following BGM0504 treatment, suggesting that it does not merely lower a single lipid parameter, but rather reduces “bad cholesterol” while elevating “good cholesterol,” thereby driving overall improvement in lipid risk profile.

As an important extension of the metabolic system, bone metabolism is highly coupled with glucose and lipid metabolism as well as energy balance. At the bone metabolism level, after 52 weeks of treatment, participants across all dose groups (pooled 5 mg/10 mg/15 mg) achieved relative increases from baseline of 0.3% in total body bone mineral density (BMD), 1.4% in lumbar spine BMD, and 3.9% in hip BMD. In previous studies, weight loss is often accompanied by changes in bone mineral density. Relevant phenomena have also been observed for certain GLP‑1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide across multiple trials, and such changes are generally attributed to reduced skeletal loading following body weight reduction. Notably, in the Phase III clinical program of BGM0504, significant weight loss was accompanied by no declining trend in BMD; instead, consistent increases in bone mineral density were achieved.

Body weight, blood pressure, uric acid, blood lipids, blood glucose and bone mineral density are no longer discrete endpoint indicators, but integrated into a continuous metabolic regulatory cascade. Mechanistically, BGM0504 does not merely regulate a single individual parameter; rather, it drives holistic remodeling of the metabolic system.

Discontinuation Rate as Low as 0.7%, Corresponding to Higher Patient Retention and Long-Term Adherence

In the context of outstanding efficacy performance, safety becomes one of the critical factors in product evaluation. Across different dose levels of BGM0504, treatment discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) can more directly reflect the drug’s sustainable use capability in real-world settings.

At the high-dose level, BGM0504 maintained a discontinuation rate of approximately 0.7%, which not only did not increase with dose escalation but remained at a lower level, significantly below competing products by several-fold.

Unlike most products where discontinuation rates increase with dose escalation, BGM0504 actually demonstrated further reduction at the high-dose level, exhibiting the rare characteristic of “dose-independent discontinuation.”

Further dissection of the data structure reveals that the differentiation is reflected not only in magnitude but also in result consistency. In the full analysis set (FAS) and per-protocol set (PPS), the 15 mg group achieved weight reductions of 19.2% and 19.3%, respectively, while the 5 mg and 10 mg groups also demonstrated comparable results of 14.3%/14.6% and 17.3%/16.9%, respectively. This indicates that weight reduction effects are more evenly distributed across the study population, with the majority of patients achieving clear improvement.

A discontinuation rate of approximately 0.7%, combined with comparable results between the full analysis set (FAS) and per-protocol set (PPS), suggests that efficacy can be demonstrated relatively consistently across different populations and implementation conditions. This characteristic reflects, on one hand, favorable overall tolerability that helps maintain treatment continuity; on the other hand, it indicates relatively even distribution of efficacy, with results not dependent on a small subset of high-responder individuals. Its value is no longer reflected solely in magnitude of efficacy, but also in how many patients can sustain use and achieve stable outcomes.

From an overall data structure perspective, the value demonstrated by BGM0504 is no longer confined to singular weight reduction magnitude. The approximately 19.3% weight reduction positions it at the current mainstream upper limit for GLP-1 class medications, while in the dimensions of population coverage and deep weight loss, it further embodies the characteristic of “enabling more patients to achieve stable weight reduction outcomes.” Concurrently, the blood pressure changes observed in the population with comorbid hypertension place its antihypertensive magnitude within the range of common clinical therapeutic interventions. Further layered with simultaneous improvements in multiple parameters including blood lipids and uric acid, its action has extended from singular weight management to synergistic changes across multidimensional metabolic parameters.

The term cardiometabolic generally refers to a cluster of interrelated risk factors including body weight, blood pressure, blood lipids and blood glucose. Clinically, these factors rarely exist in isolation; instead, they collectively contribute to the onset and progression of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) represent an umbrella term for this interconnected spectrum of disorders. They encompass metabolic conditions such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia, as well as cardiovascular complications including hypertension, ischemic heart disease (IHD), heart failure (HF), and peripheral vascular diseases. Recognized as the leading cause of death worldwide, CMDs are fundamentally driven by cardiovascular damage resulting from metabolic abnormalities.

Within this framework, the focus of disease management has gradually shifted from single indicator control to the synergistic improvement of multiple metabolic parameters. Against the backdrop that global pharmaceutical companies widely adopt the cardiometabolic framework to define metabolism-related disorders, such clinical data imply more than a simple expansion of indication scope. It embodies an evolving therapeutic paradigm: modulating multiple cardiometabolic risk factors through a single pharmacological mechanism.

In this context, BGM0504 delivers not only enhanced weight loss efficacy, but also distinctive synergistic improvements across multiple cardiometabolic dimensions, including blood pressure, glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism and uric acid levels. This profile suggests its potential value extends beyond standalone weight management to the comprehensive intervention of multiple metabolic risk factors. It offers a promising perspective for the multidimensional clinical management of cardiometabolic diseases.
