Novo Nordisk stock slides after CagriSema misses non-inferiority vs Lilly’s tirzepatide

Novo Nordisk’s stock fell about 15% after its weight‑loss candidate CagriSema failed to demonstrate non‑inferiority to Eli Lilly’s tirzepatide over 84 weeks (23% weight loss on CagriSema vs 25.5% for tirzepatide at 84 weeks). Lilly’s drug remains dominant in the market, and Novo is pursuing higher‑dose trials while facing competition, U.S. price pressure, and looming loss of exclusivity for Wegovy and Ozempic. The stock traded at its lowest since June 2021, and Lilly stock rose in premarket trading as Novo cautioned about slower growth in 2026.
