Potentially Valuable Novel Compositions Being Investigated
Lexaria Also Receives Additional New Granted Patent
KELOWNA, BC / ACCESS Newswire / June 23, 2026 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ:LEXX) (the "Company" or "Lexaria"), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, provides the following update on Animal Study #1 (GLP-1-A26-1) that is evaluating a number of formulation enhancements using both DehydraTECH-semaglutide ("DHT-sema") glucagon-like peptide-1 ("GLP-1") compositions and DehydraTECH-CBD ("DHT-CBD") compositions to explore the potential for additional improved performance as well as stake new intellectual property ("IP") claims (the "Study").
The Study is on schedule and dosing began on June 10, 2026, as planned. Barring any unforeseen interruptions, Study results are currently expected by early September.
One of the novel objectives of this Study is to evaluate innovative alternative formulations to SNAC (salcaprozate sodium) which is currently in use by Novo Nordisk® with their oral Rybelsus® and Wegovy® tablet products. If Lexaria is able to scientifically evidence novel new formulations with similarity or superiority to SNAC performance enhancements, we may be able to establish valuable new proprietary IP and an industry alternative to SNAC that could be of value within the keenly competitive GLP-1 sector. To this end, Lexaria is pleased to report that we have already filed 3 new patent applications that anticipate our latest technological improvements in this area.
