Summary

This study tests whether the drug tirzepatide, given once weekly, helps adults with obesity (but without diabetes) lose weight and avoid developing type 2 diabetes. About 3,000 participants will receive either tirzepatide or standard care for up to 5 years. The goal is to see if tirzepatide works better than usual treatments in a real-world setting.
