Abstract

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist developed as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The SURPASS (S) program spanning the T2D disease progression from no background therapy to multiple background combinations and comparators led to robust improvements in glycaemic control by tirzepatide as shown by a reduction in HbA1c and fasting serum glucose (FSG) at 40 and/or 52 weeks. This post-hoc analysis from the 5 SURPASS studies (S-1 to S-5) assessed the effect of tirzepatide on glycaemic control and safety, according to patient gender.
