Head-to-head evidence
Alogliptin vs SYR-472
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.

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.

SYR-472
Developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company
NCT02324569 · Phase 3 · completed
The 12-week comparison randomized 240 participants and used quadruple blinding with placebo control. The primary HbA1c endpoint was met, with a statistically significant treatment difference, but HbA1c is a surrogate laboratory measure rather than a hard clinical endpoint; the subsequent long-term period was open-label.
