| Submission declined on 30 October 2024 by S0091 (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Viking Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company headquartered in San Diego, CA, and founded on September 24, 2012, by Brian Lian, Ph.D., and Michael Dinerman, M.D. The company develops therapies for metabolic and endocrine disorders, such as obesity, diabetes, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).[1].[2]
Viking Therapeutics gained popularity with Wall Street investors[3], after positive phase 1 trials for an oral form of a dual GLP-1/GIP (VK2735) agonist aimed at treating obesity[4][5]
In addition to the above, Viking Therapeutics has two other pharmaceutical therapeutics in the pipeline. These are VK0214, developed to treat X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, and VK2809 developed to treat non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and fibrosis.[6]
