Head-to-head evidence
SYR-472 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.

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.
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.
