These figures cover the whole profile: every tracked question, all reporting periods.

How to read these numbers

Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.

Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.

No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.

Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.

Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.

Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Calendar 2026 Q2

how much of a differentiated label can you get relative to companies who are only working on systemic disease?

Innovation & R&DCompetitive DynamicsTranscript · FY2026 Q2 →
Show response

Gordon detailed dual Phase III studies (621 systemic, 434 symptomatic patients), Phase II ESSDAI/ESSPRI signals, and the rationale for distinct endpoints; H2 readout.

Calendar 2026 Q1

Are you switching sort of one to one to one to months every two months and every three months? And are you looking at superiority or noninferiority?

Innovation & R&DProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2026 Q1 →
Show response

Jay provided clear study design details including 300 subjects, run-in on weekly GLP-1s, and primary endpoint of change from baseline body weight after 52 weeks.

Calendar 2025 Q4

Should we expect the data this year? And do you want to give us any color on the reliability of the Phase II into the Phase III, just given it's a tough condition?

Show response

Bradner confirmed both Sjogren's Phase III studies fully enrolled with completion expected later in 2026. Noted historic challenges in Sjogren's drug development but cited dasodilumab as one of the first medicines to improve ESSDAI score in the disease, giving confidence in Phase III.

Calendar 2025 Q3

Any sense sort of -- is this going to be in a medical meeting? And can you give us any sense kind of what to really expect and put it in context?

Innovation & R&DProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2025 Q3 →
Show response

Bradner confirmed Part 2 tests quarterly dosing at full dose, monthly low dose, versus placebo and continued treatment. Did not confirm venue or timing of disclosure beyond year-end.

Calendar 2025 Q2

In Q4, when we have the second year data, how much granularity are we going to be able to glean from the patients who are going on maintenance?

Innovation & R&DProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2025 Q2 →
Show response

Bradner confirmed Q4 2025 timeline for both datasets but did not provide details on what specific maintenance dosing granularity would be shared.

Calendar 2025 Q1

at ADA, is there a chance to get maybe even the 76-week data, from the obesity study from the Phase II, including some of the less frequent dose

Innovation & R&DProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2025 Q1 →
Show response

Bradner clearly said no interim Part 2 data at ADA. On the switch study concept, he confirmed Amgen intends to generate data supporting patients switching from other weight loss medicines to MariTide.

Calendar 2024 Q4

On 514, the one that's on clinical hold for obesity, can you comment, was that an incretin or non-incretin mechanism?

Innovation & R&DProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2024 Q4 →
Show response

Management corrected the molecule number to 513 but declined to disclose the mechanism, citing competitive dynamics.

AMGEVITA was extremely strong at 294. Is that sustainable from now on? What drove that?

Revenue GrowthCompetitive DynamicsTranscript · FY2024 Q4 →
Show response

Murdo Gordon deflected from AMGEVITA-specific sustainability to broader biosimilar portfolio growth, not directly addressing whether $294M run-rate is sustainable.
