Baseline factors associated with a higher likelihood of achieving a BW reduction of ≥15% with tirzepatide were higher tirzepatide doses, female sex, White or Asian race, younger age, metformin background therapy, better glycemic status, and lower non-HDL cholesterol. With greater BW reduction, participants with T2D achieved larger improvements in glycemia and cardiometabolic risk parameters. These findings help inform which people with T2D are most likely to achieve greater BW reduction with improved cardiometabolic risk factors with tirzepatide.
