Head-to-head evidence
Alogliptin vs SP2086
Same mechanism, same race: design-graded trial evidence for both assets, with the grading rationale shown. Grades describe the quality of the evidence, never the merits of either security.
Type 2 Diabetes
Shared mechanism: DPP-4 · full Type 2 Diabetes pipeline
Alogliptin · Nesina
Marketed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company
NCT00286429 · Phase 3 · completed
The 390-participant trial was randomized, quadruple-blind, and placebo-controlled, with 130, 131, and 129 participants assigned to placebo, alogliptin 12.5 mg, and alogliptin 25 mg, respectively. Both primary HbA1c comparisons were statistically significant in favor of alogliptin, but HbA1c is a surrogate measure, so the evidence does not establish a strong clinical-outcome grade.
Next expected readout: December 2026 · NCT07093476 (registry estimate)
SP2086
Developed by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals
NCT01970033 · Phase 3 · status unknown
This is a large, randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial using the standard glycemic control measure for diabetes as its primary endpoint, but no results have been posted yet, so whether the drug lowered HbA1c more than placebo is unknown. (Independently confirmed by a second model, in-session-confirm:claude-opus-20260822.)
