Could a popular weight loss drug help fight breast cancer?

NCT ID NCT06518837

Summary

This study is testing if the weight loss medication tirzepatide can help people with early-stage, hormone-positive breast cancer lose weight and potentially improve their long-term outcomes. It will involve 40 participants who have finished their main cancer treatment but are overweight. Researchers will see if losing at least 5% of body weight with the drug is safe, doable, and might help prevent the cancer from coming back.
