Head-to-head evidence
VCT220 vs ZT002
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).
ZT002
Developed by Beijing QL Biopharmaceutical
NCT07020884 · Phase 2 · completed
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial (n=303) in adults with overweight or obesity found that ZT002 produced significantly greater weight loss than placebo at 24 weeks across all doses tested, up to 14.4% versus 2.4% with placebo (p<0.0001).
Caveat: this result is taken from a company announcement or a news report of one, not from the trial registry or a peer-reviewed publication. Treat the figures as the sponsor's own statement, not as independently verified evidence.
