Head-to-head evidence
AV-101 vs CLE-100
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.

AV-101
Developed by VistaGen Therapeutics
NCT02484456 · Phase 2 · completed
Nineteen participants were randomized to receive AV-101 and placebo in a double-blind crossover design. The primary clinical depression endpoint was not statistically significant at the reported time points; for example, the day-0 comparison was 20.22 with AV-101 versus 20.56 with placebo (p=0.68), and the day-13 comparison was 21.52 versus 19.69 (p=0.26).
CLE-100
Developed by Clexio Biosciences
NCT04103892 · Phase 2 · completed
The study randomized 146 participants overall, including 130 in the main Part B comparison, to double-blind CLE-100 or placebo alongside standard antidepressant treatment. Its clinical MADRS primary endpoint was missed: the improvement with CLE-100 was not significantly different from placebo (p=0.46), so the trial provides well-controlled but inconclusive evidence.
