In two late-stage trials of Lilly’s tirzepatide, participants lost one-quarter of their weight

Eli Lil­ly said its weight loss ti­tan tirzepatide helped peo­ple lose up to 26% of their body weight, on av­er­age, across two late-stage clin­i­cal tri­als con­duct­ed over a year and a half, fur­ther set­ting the stage for the pow­er­ful new drug to soon re­ceive FDA ap­proval.

Lil­ly ex­pects the FDA to hand down a de­ci­sion on tirzepatide — which is ap­proved as Moun­jaro for type 2 di­a­betes — in weight loss by the end of the year.
