19,428 patients treated with the Allurion
Program across 72 countries lost an average of 12.2% of total body
weight
Allurion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ALUR), a company dedicated to
ending obesity, today announced the presentation of two abstracts
at Obesity Week 2024, the annual meeting of The Obesity
Society.
The first abstract comprises outcomes data from Allurion’s
largest real-world cohort on record. The data, gathered from 19,428
patients across 72 countries treated between 2018 and 2023 with the
Allurion Program with results tracked digitally through the
Allurion Virtual Care Suite, reveals consistent and significant
weight loss outcomes with an average weight reduction of 12.2% at
four months across the population.
“While a number of clinical trials have been conducted on
intragastric balloons, there has been a persistent lack of
large-scale, real-world outcomes data,” said Dr. Shantanu Gaur,
Founder and CEO of Allurion. “These data demonstrate that the
Allurion Program can consistently and repeatedly achieve clinically
meaningful weight loss in a vast and diverse population, adding to
the data that have already been published on the Allurion Program
in over 26 peer-reviewed publications.”
The second abstract reports on outcomes of the Allurion Program
for 27 patients previously treated with liraglutide who did not
respond to their GLP-1 treatment. 55% had no weight loss and 45%
had weight loss of less than 5% with GLP-1 medications. The study
showed that these patients achieved an average weight reduction of
17.6% after just four months on the Allurion Program.
“Clinical studies indicate that, depending on the GLP-1
medication, more than a third of patients do not achieve over 10%
TBWL at one year, with lower real-world response rates1. In
addition, it can take 3 months to determine whether treatment is
working,” said Dr. Ram Chuttani, Chief Medical Officer and Founding
Partner of Allurion. “Our findings suggest that the Allurion
Program can be a game-changer for patients who do not respond to
GLP-1 treatments,” he added.
