Head-to-head evidence
Henagliflozin vs Vildagliptin
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.

Henagliflozin
Developed by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals
NCT03159052 · Phase 3 · status unknown
This was a randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo-controlled trial (n=450). The primary endpoint, HbA1c change at 24 weeks, was clearly met: both the 5 mg and 10 mg doses reduced HbA1c significantly more than placebo (p<.001 for each).
Next expected readout: December 2026 · NCT06448130 (registry estimate)
Vildagliptin · Galvus
Developed by Novartis
NCT00099866 · Phase 3 · completed
The study was randomized and double-blind, with an active metformin comparator and 570 participants. Its primary endpoint was the surrogate measure of HbA1c change, and because no trial results are posted, it cannot be determined whether the primary comparison was favorable.
