Relationship Between Body Weight Change and Glycaemic Control with Tirzepatide Treatment in People with Type 2 Diabetes: A Post Hoc Assessment of the SURPASS Clinical Trial Programme
Diabetes Obes Metab. 2023;25:2553–2560
Given that improvements in glycaemic control may be linked to both weight-independent and weight-dependent mechanisms, it is of interest to understand how changes in glycaemia and weight seen with tirzepatide are related. This post hoc analysis assessed the relationship between HbA1c and body weight reductions with tirzepatide treatment (5, 10 or 15 mg) across the SURPASS clinical trial programme.

Effects of Canagliflozin Versus Finerenone on Cardiorenal Outcomes: Exploratory Post Hoc Analyses From FIDELIO-DKD Compared to Reported CREDENCE Results
Nephrol Dial Transplant 2022;37:1261-9 doi.org/10.1093/ndt/gfab336
This analysis highlights the pitfalls of direct comparisons between trials, since when key differences in design are considered, FIDELIO-DKD and CREDENCE demonstrate similar cardiorenal benefits. The authors conclude that both canagliflozin and finerenone are similarly effective in reducing the risk of cardiorenal outcomes.
Effects of Canagliflozin Versus Finerenone on Cardiorenal Outcomes: Exploratory Post-Hoc Analyses From FIDELIO-DKD Compared to Reported CREDENCE Results
Nephrol Dial Transplant 2021;gfab336 doi: 10.1093/ndt/gfab366
Finerenone and canagliflozin reduce cardiorenal risk in patients who are albuminuric. This exploratory post-hoc analyses by Agarwal et al. investigated how differences in trial design influenced observed treatment effects in the FIDELIO-DKD and CREDENCE studies.
