Zealand Pharma A/S Date: January 4, 2019 By: /s/ Mats Blom Name: Mats Blom Title: Chief Financial Officer 3 Copyright © 2019 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Exhibit 99.1 Press release No. 1 / 2019 Zealand Pharma completes equity investment in strategic partner Beta Bionics · Zealand Pharma invests USD 3.5 million in the final close of strategic partner Beta Bionics series B financing round · Beta Bionics is the developer of the iLet bionic pancreas an autonomous dual hormone artificial pancreas, using Zealands dasiglucagon for automated glucose regulation in type 1 diabetes · Dasiglucagon is a potential first-in-class glucagon analogue for use together with insulin in dual-hormone infusion therapy with potential to transform diabetes management Copenhagen, January 4, 2019 Zealand Pharma A/S (Zealand) (NASDAQ: ZEAL), a Copenhagen-based biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of innovative peptide-based medicines, announced the completion of a USD 5 million strategic equity investment in Beta Bionics, a medical technology company developing the iLet bionic pancreas system. The iLet is a pocket-sized, dual-chamber, autonomous, glycemic control system that mimics a biological pancreas by calculating and dosing insulin and/or glucagon as needed based on data from the diabetic patients continuous glucose monitor. The iLet will utilize Zealands proprietary first-in-class stable glucagon analogue, dasiglucagon, in combination with insulin. This dual hormone therapy has the potential to significantly improve diabetes management for people who today are on insulin therapy. In 2017, Zealand made an initial USD 1.5 million equity investment in Beta Bionics with an option to invest a further USD 3.5 million pending the achievement of specific development milestones. Zealand has now exercised this option based on the significant regulatory and clinical progress seen throughout 2018. This strategic equity investment, as part of the Series B financing, further strengthens the collaboration between Zealand Pharma and Beta Bionics in moving forward with the Phase 3 program for iLet in 2019. Prior clinical studies have demonstrated that patients with type 1 diabetes using the autonomous dual hormone system spend significantly more time in the normal glucose range, had significantly fewer dangerous hypoglycemic events (low blood sugar), and reduced need for correcting the low blood glucose with excessive food intake (source: data on file). We are truly impressed with the clinical data generated so far with the iLet and excited by the progress in our collaboration with Beta Bionics. We look forward to starting the pivotal phase 3 development program in the second half of 2019, said Adam Steensberg, Chief Medical and Development Officer at Zealand. Zealands proprietary stable glucagon analogue, dasiglucagon, has great potential to dramatically improve Type 1 diabetes patient care and outcomes when used in cutting edge dual-hormone artificial pancreas pumps like the iLet. Zealand Pharma has demonstrated in multiple clinical trials that dasiglucagon is effective in preventing and correcting insulin-induced low plasma glucose events (hypoglycemia). With its unique stability profile in liquid formulations, dasiglucagon is strongly suited for use in dual-hormone artificial pancreas pump systems as already demonstrated with Beta Bionics iLet. 1 Copyright © 2019 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Our enduring commitment at Beta Bionics is to bring the dual-hormone iLet to market to improve the lives of as many people with type 1 diabetes as possible, said Ed Damiano, President and Chief Executive Officer at Beta Bionics. We are very excited by the impressive results achieved with dasiglucagon in pre-clinical studies and clinical trials. We look forward to beginning our phase 3 pivotal trial program with the talented team at Zealand Pharma.

It is also in development for two additional indications: treatment of severe hypoglycemia, and treatment for children born with a genetic mutation that causes congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). About Type 1 diabetes dual-hormone bionic pancreas People with type 1 diabetes suffer from insulin deficiency and inappropriate glucagon secretion. Both hormones are essential to ensure stable and healthy blood glucose levels. Consequently, patients must monitor and adjust their blood sugar levels to remain in proper glycemic control, as both high and low blood glucose may adversely impact their health, both in the short- and long-term. During outpatient and home-use randomized cross-over trials, the bionic pancreas dosing algorithms integrated into the iLet have shown significant reductions in blood glucose levels, and simultaneous reductions in hypoglycemia in adults, adolescents, and pre-adolescents with type 1 diabetes (New England Journal of Medicine. 2014, 371:313-25; Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology. 2016, 4:233-43, Lancet. 2017, 389:369-80). About Zealand Pharma A/S Zealand Pharma A/S (Nasdaq Copenhagen and New York: ZEAL) (Zealand) is a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of innovative peptide-based medicines.

Thus, placebo-corrected percentage weight reduction was -10.3 to -12.4% and -5.4% with OW semaglutide and OD liraglutide, respectively. In patients with type 2 diabetes, corresponding weight reduction was less pronounced with both drugs being -6.2% and -4.3% with OW semaglutide and OD liraglutide, respectively.

Abstract: Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) is a class of hypo- glycemic medications. Semaglutide once-weekly (QW) and liraglutide once-daily (OD) significantly improved glycemic control compared to placebo. To date, no long-term phase III trials directly comparing semaglutide and liraglutide are available. This network meta-analysis (NMA) aims to compare the long-term efficacy of semaglutide and liraglutide. Methods: PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception until June 2019 to identify relevant articles. Nine long-term randomized controlled trials comparing once-weekly semaglutide or liraglutide with placebo or other active comparisons were identified. The outcomes of interest were changes in HbA1c and weight after 52 weeks. A Bayesian framework and NMA were used for data synthesis.

  • GLP-1) Agonists Annual Review Date: 12/17/2020
    Policy: Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Agonists Annual Review Date: 12/17/2020 Impacted Last Revised Date: Drugs: • Tanzeum (albiglutide) • Victoza (liraglutide) 12/17/2020 • Adlyxin (lixisenatide) OVERVIEW Bydureon, Byetta, Tanzeum, Trulicity, Victoza, Adlyxin, Rybelsus and Ozempic are glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) agonists indicated in adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes. Incretins, such as GLP-1, enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion and exhibit other antihyperglycemic actions following their release into circulation from the gut. The GLP-1 agonists enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta-cell, suppress inappropriately elevated glucagon secretion, and slow gastric emptying. All of the GLP-1 agonists, except Rybelsus, are administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection. Bydureon is an extended release formulation of Byetta allowing for once-weekly (QW) administration. Unlike Byetta, Trulicity and Victoza, Bydureon and Tanzeum require reconstitution. Byetta is a twice-daily (BID) injection, Trulicity, Ozempic, and Tanzeum are once-weekly (QW) injections, and Victoza and Adlyxin are a once-daily (QD) injection. Rybelsus is a once daily oral tablet. The prescribing information for Bydureon and Byetta note that neither of these agents are recommended in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CrCl] < 30 mL/min) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and should be used with caution in patients with renal transplantation. Victoza’s prescribing information notes that it has not been found to be directly nephrotoxic in animal studies or clinical trials. Caution is recommended when initiating or escalating doses of Victoza in patients with renal impairment.
