Eli Lilly and Company recently updated its clinical study titled A Phase 2b Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study of Bimagrumab and Tirzepatide, Alone or in Combination, to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety in Adult Participants With Obesity or Overweight With Type 2 Diabetes. The study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of bimagrumab and tirzepatide, either alone or combined, in reducing body weight among adults with obesity or overweight who have type 2 diabetes.
The study tests two drugs: Bimagrumab and Tirzepatide, both administered subcutaneously. Bimagrumab targets muscle growth, while Tirzepatide is designed to improve blood sugar control and promote weight loss.
This interventional study is randomized with a parallel assignment model, ensuring participants and investigators are unaware of the treatment allocations to maintain objectivity. The primary goal is treatment-focused, assessing the drugs’ impact on weight loss.
Key dates for this study include a start date of March 24, 2025, and a last update on September 19, 2025. However, the study has been withdrawn, indicating it will not proceed as initially planned.
The withdrawal of this study may impact Eli Lilly’s stock performance and investor sentiment, as expectations for new treatment options in the obesity and diabetes market are high. Competitors in the industry may view this as an opportunity to advance their own research and development efforts.
The study has been withdrawn, and further details can be accessed on the ClinicalTrials portal.
