Head-to-head evidence
ecnoglutide vs VCT220
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.

ecnoglutide
Marketed by Sciwind Biosciences
NCT05813795 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial in 664 adults with overweight or obesity. Ecnoglutide 2.4 mg produced a significantly greater reduction in body weight than placebo at week 40, -13.2% vs +0.1%, p<0.0001, meeting the trial primary comparison.
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.

VCT220
Developed by Ji Xing Pharmaceuticals (CORXEL) under a licence from Vincentage Pharma
NCT06569355 · Phase 2 · completed
This Phase 2 trial randomly assigned 250 people with obesity or overweight to one of several VCT220 doses or placebo, with participants, carers, investigators and outcome assessors unaware of assignment. The primary measure was percentage change in body weight at week 16. Weight fell by between 5.8% and 9.7% across the VCT220 dose groups against 1.6% on placebo, with reductions of 9.7% and 9.4% at the two 160 mg schedules (p of 0.001 or lower).
