Head-to-head evidence
Gemigliptin vs SYR-472
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.

Developed by LG Chem
NCT01787396 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a randomized, quadruple-blind trial (n=433) with three arms: gemigliptin plus metformin, gemigliptin alone (with a matching metformin placebo), and metformin alone (with a matching gemigliptin placebo). The primary endpoint, HbA1c change at 24 weeks, favored the combination over either monotherapy.
SYR-472
Developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company
NCT02324569 · Phase 3 · completed
The 12-week comparison randomized 240 participants and used quadruple blinding with placebo control. The primary HbA1c endpoint was met, with a statistically significant treatment difference, but HbA1c is a surrogate laboratory measure rather than a hard clinical endpoint; the subsequent long-term period was open-label.
