Head-to-head evidence

DD01 vs 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.

DD01

Developed by D&D Pharmatech and partners

Phase 2 in Obesitypeptide
Partial signal

NCT06410924 · Phase 2 · completed

This randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial enrolled 67 people with fatty liver disease and measured the proportion who achieved at least a 30% reduction in liver fat, measured by MRI scan, after 12 weeks. DD01 met this imaging-based endpoint far more often than placebo (75.8% vs 11.8%), though liver-fat reduction on imaging is an earlier marker of benefit rather than the biopsy-confirmed liver-disease improvement that later-stage trials assess.

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.

Approved in Obesitypeptide
Reliable signal

NCT03548935 · Phase 3 · completed

This was a randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 1,961 participants. At week 68, mean body-weight change was -15.6% with semaglutide versus -2.8% with placebo, and the primary comparison was statistically significant (p<0.0001), supporting strong evidence for this clinical weight-loss endpoint.
