It will include adults in Bangladesh who are overweight or obese, with or without type 2 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\nDoes tirzepatide help people lose weight?\n\nWhat side effects do people experience while taking tirzepatide?\n\nAll participants will:\n\nReceive tirzepatide as a weekly injection, starting at 2.5 mg and gradually increasing to 15 mg.\n\nContinue the treatment for 52 weeks (12 months).\n\nVisit the clinic for regular checkups and tests.\n\nResearchers will measure changes in body weight, BMI, waist size, blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. They will also track any side effects and assess the participants' overall health and quality of life during the study.", 'detailedDescription': 'Obesity has emerged as a critical global public health issue, significantly linked to an increased risk of various comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular diseases. While lifestyle modifications, such as adhering to a low-calorie diet and enhancing physical activity, remain the cornerstone of obesity management, the recent development of anti-obesity medications such as GLP-1 agonists has transformed treatment options. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide, GLP-1 agonist, in weight management among overweight or obese adult individuals, both with and without T2DM in Bangladesh.\n\nThis single treatment arm clinical trial will be conducted in a real-world setting, enrolling male and female adults aged 18 years or older, with a body mass index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m² or ≥25-29.9 kg/m² if they have at least one weight-related comorbidity, such as, hypertension, or dyslipidemia. All the individuals recruited in the present study will receive subcutaneous injections of tirzepatide, initiated at a dose of 2.5 mg once weekly for the first four weeks, with incremental increases of 2.5 mg every four weeks, reaching the maintenance dose of 15 mg once weekly. The follow-up period will be 52 weeks (12 months) from the start of treatment.\n\nThe primary efficacy endpoint will be the percentage change in body weight from baseline at week 52. Secondary endpoints will include the proportion of participants achieving weight reductions of ≥5%, ≥10%, ≥15%, and ≥20% after 52 weeks, as well as changes in body weight (kg), BMI (kg/m²), waist circumference (cm), HbA1c (%), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (mg/dL), blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic), serum lipid levels (mg/dL), modifications in hypoglycemic and antihypertensive medications, and overall quality of life assessed through an obesity-specific QoL instrument. The study will also evaluate the incidence and severity of adverse events, alongside physical examination results, blood pressure measurements, and laboratory parameter changes from baseline.\n\nAdhering to Good Clinical Practice Guidelines, this study will follow ethical principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria\n\nCommon inclusion criteria for both diabetic and non-diabetic individuals:\n\n* Informed consent will be obtained before any trial-related activities.\n* Male or female, aged ≥18 years at the time of signing the informed consent form.\n* Have a history of at least one self-reported unsuccessful dietary effort to lose body weight.\n* Body mass index (BMI):\n* ≥30 kg/m² with or without any weight-related comorbidities or\n* ≥25-29.9 kg/m² with the presence of at least one of the following weight-related comorbidities (treated or untreated):\n* Hypertension (systolic BP ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP ≥90 mmHg or currently taking antihypertensive medication).\n* Dyslipidemia (treated or with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) ≥160 mg/dL (4.1 mmol/L) or triglycerides ≥150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L), or high-density lipoprotein (HDL) \\<40 mg/dL (1.0 mmol/L) for men or HDL \\<50 mg/dL (1.3 mmol/L) for women).\n* Obstructive sleep apnea.\n* Cardiovascular disease (more than three months).\n* In the investigator's opinion, are well-motivated, capable, and willing to:\n* Learn how to self-inject study drug, as required for this protocol (visually impaired persons who are not able to perform the injections must have the assistance of a sighted individual trained to inject study drug; persons with physical limitations who are not able to perform the injections must have the assistance of an individual trained to inject study drug).\n* Inject study drug (or receive an injection from a trained individual if visually impaired or with physical limitations).\n* Follow study procedures for the duration of the study, including, but not limited to, following lifestyle advice (for example, dietary restrictions and exercise plan) and maintaining a study diary.\n* Male participants:\n* Male participants with partners of childbearing potential should be willing to use reliable contraceptive methods throughout the study and for 5 half-lives of the study drug plus 90 days, corresponding to 4 months after the last injection.\n* Female participants:\n* Female participants not of childbearing potential may participate and include those who are:\n* Infertile due to surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation), congenital anomaly such as Mullerian agenesis.\n* Postmenopausal, defined as either:\n* A woman at least 40 years of age with an intact uterus, not on hormone therapy, who has cessation of menses for at least 1 year without an alternative medical cause, AND a follicle-stimulating hormone ≥40 mIU/mL; women in this category must test negative in pregnancy test prior to study entry.\n* A woman 55 or older not on hormone therapy, who has had at least 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea.\n* A woman at least 55 years of age with a diagnosis of menopause prior to starting hormone replacement therapy.\n* Female participants of childbearing potential (not surgically sterilized and between menarche and 1-year postmenopausal) must:\n* Test negative for pregnancy at Visit 1 based on a serum pregnancy test.\n* If sexually active, agree to use 2 forms of effective contraception, where at least 1 form is highly effective, for the duration of the trial and for 30 days thereafter.\n* Not be breastfeeding.\n\nFor subjects with T2DM:\n\n* Patients diagnosed with T2DM more than or equal to 180 days prior to the day of screening.\n* HbA1c up to 10.0%.\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\nCommon exclusion criteria for both diabetic and non-diabetic individuals:\n\n* Medical criteria:\n* Have obesity induced by other endocrinologic disorders (for example, Cushing Syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (for example, Melanocortin 4 Receptor deficiency or Prader-Willi Syndrome).\n* A self-reported reduction in body weight of more than 5 kg within 30 days before screening, irrespective of medical records.\n* Treatment with any medication for the indication of obesity within the past 90 days before screening (e.g., Orlistat, liraglutide, naltrexone/bupropion, diethylpropion, phendimetrazine, semaglutide, and setmelanotide).\n* Any previous obesity treatment with surgery or a weight loss device during a lifetime.\n* Continued treatment with other GLP-1 agonists, SGLT-2 inhibitors, and/or metformin.
