New Tirzepatide vs. Semaglutide Ph1 T2DM Clamp Study; Ph3 SURPASS-1 Monotherapy Trial Initiated
Lilly recently initiated two new tirzepatide T2DM studies. The first is a Ph1 clamp study comparing tirzepatide to Novo’s QW injectable semaglutide, and the second is the Ph3 SURPASS-1 monotheraphy trial vs. pbo. Interestingly, the Ph1 trial is evaluating the effect of tirzepatide on α and β cell function. Below, FENIX provides thoughts on both studies including Lilly’s potential rationale for the H2H clamp trial as well as insight as to why SURPASS-1 is longer than Novo’s Ph3 semaglutide monotherapy trial.
