Head-to-head evidence
Gemigliptin vs Teneligliptin
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.

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.
Teneligliptin · Tenelia
Developed by Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma
NCT00974090 · Phase 3 · completed
The trial was properly randomized and double-blinded with a placebo control and a real hard clinical endpoint (HbA1c change), and enrollment (~96-98 per arm) was reasonable for a 12-week phase 3 add-on study. However, the posted results report only least-squares mean changes with standard errors and no explicit statistical significance test for the primary comparison, so while the numeric difference favors teneligliptin, whether it formally met its pre-specified endpoint cannot be confirmed from this record alone.
