Head-to-head evidence
amycretin vs cagrilintide/semaglutide
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.
Obesity
Shared mechanisms: Amylin receptor · GLP-1 receptor · full Obesity pipeline
amycretin
Developed by Novo Nordisk
NCT06064006 · Phase 2 · completed
The study was randomized, quadruple-masked, and placebo-controlled, with 125 participants, providing a meaningful controlled design. Registry results were not posted at the time of grading; the key result shown was recovered from the cited external source.
This trial's registered primary endpoint was safety (treatment-emergent adverse events); the figures shown are its prespecified secondary weight-change endpoints as published in The Lancet.
Next expected readout: December 2027 · NCT07587710 (registry estimate)
cagrilintide/semaglutide · CagriSema
Developed by Novo Nordisk
NCT05394519 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a large, randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 1,200 patients using percentage body weight change, the standard efficacy measure for obesity treatment. CagriSema reduced body weight by 13.7% versus 3.4% on placebo, a 10.4-percentage-point difference (p<0.001), meeting the primary endpoint.
Next expected readout: March 2027 · NCT07011667 (registry estimate)
Type 2 Diabetes
Shared mechanisms: GLP-1 receptor · Amylin receptor · full Type 2 Diabetes pipeline
amycretin
Developed by Novo Nordisk
NCT06542874 · Phase 2 · completed
This was a randomized, quadruple-blinded, placebo-controlled trial with 448 participants and a validated diabetes disease-control endpoint (HbA1c). The primary comparison was clearly positive, with HbA1c reductions of up to 1.8 percentage points (subcutaneous) and 1.5 points (oral) that were statistically significant against placebo.
Caveat: this result is taken from a company announcement or a news report of one, not from the trial registry or a peer-reviewed publication. Treat the figures as the sponsor's own statement, not as independently verified evidence.
Next expected readout: December 2028 · NCT07400107 (registry estimate)
cagrilintide/semaglutide · CagriSema
Developed by Novo Nordisk
NCT05394519 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a large, randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 1,200 patients using percentage body weight change, the standard efficacy measure for obesity treatment. CagriSema reduced body weight by 13.7% versus 3.4% on placebo, a 10.4-percentage-point difference (p<0.001), meeting the primary endpoint.
Next expected readout: June 2027 · NCT07817251 (registry estimate)
