Head-to-head evidence
cagrilintide/semaglutide vs HSK7653
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.

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.

HSK7653
Developed by Haisco Pharmaceutical Group
NCT04556851 · Phase 3 · completed
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial enrolled 476 patients and measured change in HbA1c, a standard efficacy measure in diabetes, at 24 weeks. Both HSK7653 doses lowered HbA1c significantly more than placebo (p<0.0001), meeting the trial's primary goal.
