ASC30 vs liraglutide
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.

Developed by Ascletis Pharma
NCT07002905 · Phase 2 · completed
The study randomly assigned 125 participants and used quadruple blinding with placebo control across seven cohorts. Its primary endpoint was percent change in body weight at Week 13, but the registry has not posted whether this endpoint was met.
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.

NCT00781937 · Phase 3 · completed
The trial randomly assigned 212 participants to liraglutide and 210 to placebo in a double-blind, placebo-controlled design, with objective body-weight outcomes assessed at week 56. All three prespecified primary comparisons favored liraglutide and were statistically significant (each p<0.0001), supporting a strong evidence grade.
Next expected readout: December 2026 · NCT07225816 (registry estimate)
