Helix Unveils Model Predicting Semaglutide Weight Loss Response

• Helix presented a precision effectiveness model at ASHG 2024 predicting 12-month weight loss from semaglutide in diverse populations. • The model uses a polygenic risk score and co-morbid factors like type 2 diabetes and hypertension to predict individual responses. • Patients in the top quintile of the score were approximately twice as likely to achieve 10% weight loss compared to the bottom quintile. • The model aims to improve treatment decisions by estimating weight loss expectations and guiding dosage considerations for semaglutide.
