What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

This registered phase 4 trial tested Tirzepatide.

Participation in the study will last about 46 weeks.

It had 1 arm (groups): Tirzepatide (experimental).

Participants will receive tirzepatide subcutaneously (SC).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

Who Took Part

Enrollment: 344 planned participants were the target.

It was open to people of any sex aged from 18 years with no upper age limit.

Healthy volunteers were not accepted; participants needed the condition being studied.

Examples of who could join: Have had type 2 diabetes for at least one year. Have body mass index (BMI) ≥23 kilograms per square meter (kg/m2). Have a BMI. Greater than or equal to 30 kg/m2 OR. Greater than or equal to 27 kg/m2 AND previously diagnosed with at least one of the following weight-related comorbidities: high blood pressure, lipid disorder, obstructive sleep apnea, heart disease.

The full record lists 7 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria; among the exclusions: have type 1 diabetes; have had any of the following heart conditions within 6 months prior to screening:; heart attack.

How the Study Was Run

Design: single-group and open-label.

Nothing was hidden in this open-label Tirzepatide study: the participants and staff both knew the treatment.

Everyone received the same intervention, so there was no separate comparison group inside the trial.

It started in 2026-02-27 with completion listed for 2027-07.

It ran at 21 sites in India (21).

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

The main thing measured (primary outcome): Number of Participants with One or More Serious Adverse Events (SAE) Considered by the Investigator to be Related to Study Drug Administration (time frame: Baseline through Week 46).

It also tracked 3 secondary outcomes, for example Change from Baseline in Waist Circumference in Participants with Obesity or Overweight.

What This Means in Plain Language

Put simply, this is a phase 4 trial of Tirzepatide in 344 people.

Its status is active not recruiting; no results are posted to the registry yet, so nothing here describes outcomes.
