Summary

This study looks at whether tirzepatide, a once-weekly injection, is a practical and acceptable treatment for weight loss in 30 postmenopausal women who have had hormone receptor-positive breast cancer and are currently obese. Participants will take the medication for 6 months with monthly check-ins, and the researchers will track weight, body fat, blood sugar, and overall health. The goal is to see if this approach can help manage obesity and improve well-being in this specific group.
