Head-to-head evidence

elecoglipron 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.

Obesity

Shared mechanism: GLP-1 receptor · full Obesity pipeline

elecoglipron

Developed by AstraZeneca

Phase 3 in Obesitysmall molecule
Reliable signal

NCT06579092 · Phase 2 · completed

This randomised, triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 310 adults living with obesity or overweight reported a 10.5% reduction in body weight on elecoglipron 75 mg against 0.6% on placebo at 26 weeks. Percent weight change is the measure regulators accept as the primary efficacy endpoint in obesity.

orforglipron · Foundayo

Marketed by Eli Lilly

Approved in Obesitysmall molecule
Partial signal

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: February 2027 · NCT06672549 (registry estimate)

Type 2 Diabetes

Shared mechanism: GLP-1 receptor · full Type 2 Diabetes pipeline

elecoglipron

Developed by AstraZeneca

Phase 3 in Type 2 Diabetessmall molecule
Reliable signal

NCT06579105 · Phase 2 · completed

Participants receiving AZD5004 or placebo were randomized and kept blinded to treatment; a semaglutide comparator arm was open-label but was not part of the primary comparison. The highest dose produced a substantially larger drop in HbA1c than placebo, meeting the trial's main goal.
