Predictors of initial and sustained glycemic and weight response to tirzepatide: a post hoc analysis of SURPASS-4

Le résumé fourni par la source

This post hoc analysis assessed sustainability of lowered HbA1c and weight with tirzepatide in people with type 2 diabetes and increased cardiovascular risk. Participants achieving HbA1c ≤48 mmol/mol (6.5%) or weight loss ≥10% at 52 weeks were evaluated for sustained glycemic or weight control and predictors of initial and sustained efficacy. For tirzepatide-treated participants achieving HbA1c ≤48 mmol/mol (6.5%) at 52 weeks, 75-84% sustained this until study end (median: 81 weeks). Factors predicting achievement were higher tirzepatide dose, shorter diabetes duration, and lower HbA1c, higher HOMA of beta-cell function (HOMA-B), metformin alone, and absence of albuminuria at baseline. Factors predicting sustained glycemic control were greater weight loss, smaller fasting glucose decrease, no sulfonylurea, and higher HOMA-B at 52 weeks. For participants achieving ≥10% weight loss at 52 weeks, 79-82% maintained weight loss. Factors predicting achievement were higher tirzepatide dose, female sex, no cardiovascular disease history, and lower baseline HbA1c, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and triglycerides. Greater decrease in LDL-cholesterol to 52 weeks predicted maintained weight loss. Greater weight loss and better beta-cell function achieved with tirzepatide were the main predictors for sustained glycemic control in this post hoc analysis; no clinically meaningful predictor was identified for sustained weight control.
