Head-to-head evidence
efpeglenatide vs orforglipron
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.

efpeglenatide
Developed by Hanmi Pharmaceutical and partners
NCT03353350 · Phase 3 · completed
The trial was randomized, quadruple-blinded, placebo-controlled, and included 406 participants, providing a strong comparative design. However, the primary endpoint was the surrogate measure of HbA1c change, and although the reported changes favored efpeglenatide, statistical significance for the primary comparison was not reported.
Next expected readout: November 2027 · NCT07379333 (registry estimate)
orforglipron · Foundayo
Marketed by Eli Lilly
NCT05803421 · Phase 3 · completed
The study is randomized and active-controlled with a large sample of 2,749 participants, but it is open-label rather than blinded. Its primary endpoint is a hard clinical cardiovascular outcome; however, the comparison cannot be judged because no results are currently available.
Next expected readout: May 2027 · NCT07613307 (registry estimate)
