Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Have type 2 diabetes (T2DM) for ≥6 months according to the Criteria for Diagnosing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (American Diabetes Association 2017).
  • Have HbA1c of 7.0% to 10.5%, inclusive, as assessed by the central laboratory.
  • If on metformin, have been treated with stable doses of metformin for at least 3 months.
  • Have a body mass index (BMI) between 23 and 45 (Inclusive) kilograms per square meter.

Exclusion criteria

  • Have type 1 diabetes (T1D).
  • Have used any glucose-lowering medication other than metformin within 3 months prior to study entry or during screening/lead-in period or have used any glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) at any time in the past 12 months.
  • Have had any of the following cardiovascular conditions: acute myocardial infarction (MI), New York Heart Association Class III or Class IV heart failure, or cerebrovascular accident (stroke).
  • Have acute or chronic hepatitis, signs and symptoms of any other liver disease other than nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level >2.5 times the upper limit of the reference range, as determined by the central laboratory at study entry; participants with NAFLD are eligible for participation in this trial.
  • Have had chronic or acute pancreatitis any time prior to study entry.
  • Have an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <45 milliliters/minute/1.73 square meter, calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) equation.
  • Have serum calcitonin ≥20 picograms per milliliter, as determined by the central laboratory at study entry.
  • Have any condition that is a contraindication for use of the GLP-1 RA class (per country-specific labels) at study entry or develop such condition between study entry and randomization.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months

    Least squares (LS) mean was calculated using mixed model repeated measures model (MMRM) with baseline + baseline BMI group + baseline metformin flag + treatment + time + treatment*time as fixed factors.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving HbA1c Target of <7.0%

    Time frame: 3 Months

    Percentage of participants achieving HbA1c target of < (less than) 7.0%.

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG)

    Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months

    LSMean was calculated using MMRM model with baseline + baseline HbA1C group + baseline BMI group + baseline Metformin flag + treatment + time + treatment*time as fixed factors.

  3. Change From Baseline in Body Weight

    Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months

    LSMean was calculated using MMRM model with baseline + baseline HbA1C group + baseline BMI group + baseline Metformin flag + treatment + time + treatment*time as fixed factors.

  4. Change From Baseline in Waist Circumference

    Time frame: Baseline, 3 Months

    LSMean was calculated using MMRM model with baseline + baseline HbA1C group + baseline BMI group + baseline Metformin flag + treatment + time + treatment*time as fixed factors.

  5. Number of Participants With Anti Drug Antibodies

    Time frame: Baseline through 3 Months

    Number of participants with anti drug antibodies.

  6. Number of Episodes of Total Hypoglycemia Episodes

    Time frame: Baseline through 3 Months

    Number of episodes of total hypoglycemia episodes with plasma glucose <= ( less than or equal to) 54 mg/dL.

  7. Pharmacokinetics (PK): Average Trough Concentration (Conctrough) of Tirzepatide

    Time frame: Week 4, 8 12: Pre-dose

    Pharmacokinetics (PK): Average Trough Concentration (Conctrough) of Tirzepatide.
