A Study of Daily Oral Orforglipron (LY3502970) Compared With Insulin Glargine in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity or Overweight at Increased Cardiovascular Risk

NCT05803421 on ClinicalTrials.gov · last registry update 2026-04-17

An unusually large phase 3: 2,749 participants, more than double the 424 typical for the stage. Completed 16 March 2026. orforglipron is approved in the US, but not for cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease — a registration here is not an approval, and most drugs tested in a new condition never get one for it.
