Head-to-head evidence
liraglutide vs regor GLP-1
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.

NCT00781937 · Phase 3 · completed
The trial randomly assigned 212 participants to liraglutide and 210 to placebo in a double-blind, placebo-controlled design, with objective body-weight outcomes assessed at week 56. All three prespecified primary comparisons favored liraglutide and were statistically significant (each p<0.0001), supporting a strong evidence grade.

regor GLP-1

NCT06867718 · Phase 2 · completed
The trial randomized 267 participants to four active-dose groups or placebo and masked both participants and investigators. Its primary endpoint was percent change in body weight at Week 36, but the registry does not report whether the comparison met its statistical objective, so the evidence is currently limited to a well-controlled study design with an unknown result.
Type 2 Diabetes
Shared mechanism: GLP-1 receptor · full Type 2 Diabetes pipeline
liraglutide · Saxenda / Victoza
Marketed by Novo Nordisk
NCT00318461 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a large (n=1091), randomized, double-blind, parallel-group trial with both a placebo-controlled comparison (liraglutide + metformin vs metformin + liraglutide placebo) and an active-controlled comparison (glimepiride + metformin). The primary endpoint was change in HbA1c at week 26, a hard, regulator-accepted outcome for type 2 diabetes. The prespecified primary comparisons for liraglutide 1.2 mg and 1.8 mg/day were met: both were significantly superior to metformin alone (p<0.0001) and non-inferior to glimepiride + metformin within the 0.4% margin. The 0.6 mg dose was superior to metformin but did not meet non-inferiority against glimepiride + metformin, which does not negate the positive results for the clinically relevant doses.
