In cell-based assays, pegozafermin had a similar receptor engagement profile as native FGF21, with approximately 8-fold higher potency at FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1). Pharmacokinetic half-lives ranged from 55 to 100 hours over the clinically relevant dose range, consistent with the expected half-life extension by glycoPEGylation.
