Nope, no comparison, but it has its uses.
Get a dropper vial (60ml or so). Get a small bottle of Everclear. Dump a gram of trendione in the vial. Squirt 28mL of Everclear in. heat in a saucepan with water and then shake it up. You now have 33mg/mL of trendione solution. I've added glycerine to try to take the sting out, but the everclear is overwhelming. I'm trying my next batch with pure EVOO. I'm told it still suspends well. What you should really try is a transdermal trendione. Look at basskiller's site for a recipe. I'll be making all of mine transdermal if I notice ann improvement over oral.
