Trial results

Effect of Tirzepatide on Progression of Coronary Atherosclerosis Using MDCT

NCT05708859 on ClinicalTrials.gov · last registry update 2024-10-15

Recruiting now, toward 120 participants. Its estimated completion date, December 2025, has passed with no update to the record. Primary outcome, as filed: Reduction of total non-calcified coronary plaque volume. A lapsed estimate is not a result and not a failure — sponsors are slow to refile — but ClinicalTrials.gov marks it nowhere on the record, so it is noted here. tirzepatide is already approved in the US for cardiovascular disease, so this is asking a further question rather than establishing the drug works at all.
