Head-to-head evidence
VCT220 vs VRB-101
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.

VCT220
Developed by Ji Xing Pharmaceuticals (CORXEL) under a licence from Vincentage Pharma
NCT06569355 · Phase 2 · completed
This Phase 2 trial randomly assigned 250 people with obesity or overweight to one of several VCT220 doses or placebo, with participants, carers, investigators and outcome assessors unaware of assignment. The primary measure was percentage change in body weight at week 16. Weight fell by between 5.8% and 9.7% across the VCT220 dose groups against 1.6% on placebo, with reductions of 9.7% and 9.4% at the two 160 mg schedules (p of 0.001 or lower).
VRB-101
Developed by Verdiva Bio
NCT07281937 · Phase 2 · completed
The trial randomly assigns participants to VRB-101 or a matching placebo and keeps participants, care providers and assessors all blinded, using percent body weight change, a standard measure for obesity drugs, as its main result. Results have not been posted yet, so whether the weight-loss difference was statistically meaningful is not yet known. (Independently confirmed by a second model, in-session-confirm:claude-opus-20260822.)
