Tirzepatid: što pokazuju studije
Tirzepatid je proizveo najveće prosječne gubitke tjelesne težine ikad zabilježene za neki lijek u randomiziranom ispitivanju pretilosti. Također je lijek s najzanimljivijim rezultatima koji se ne odnose na težinu.
SURMOUNT-1: najveća veličina učinka u ovom području
SURMOUNT-1 je randomizirao odrasle osobe s pretilošću bez dijabetesa na tirzepatid 5, 10 ili 15 mg tjedno, ili placebo, tijekom 72 tjedna [8]. Prosječna promjena težine pri najvišoj dozi iznosila je oko −20,9%, dok je već doza od 5 mg iznosila oko −15% — što znači da je najniža doza tirzepatida približno odgovarala najboljem rezultatu semaglutida. Više od polovice sudionika pri višim dozama izgubilo je najmanje 20% tjelesne težine.
Nastavak tog programa produljio je praćenje i izvijestio o prevenciji dijabetesa uz održivo smanjenje težine [5], što je važno jer pomiče ishod s broja na vagi na klinički događaj.
Učinkovitost u smanjenju tjelesne težine
I ovdje vrijedi kazna dijabetesa
SURMOUNT-2 je provelo isti protokol kod odraslih osoba s pretilošću i dijabetesom tipa 2 te je pri najvišoj dozi utvrdilo prosječni gubitak težine od približno 14,7% [7]. Ponovno: velik učinak, i ponovno znatno manji nego u populaciji bez dijabetesa. Metaanaliza koja uspoređuje ova dva lijeka kod dijabetesa tipa 2 čvršće utvrđuje njihov relativni poredak [1][3].
| Ispitivanje | Populacija | Doza | Trajanje | Prosječna promjena težine |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SURMOUNT-1 [8] | Pretilost, bez dijabetesa | 15 mg | 72 tjedna | ≈ −20,9% |
| SURMOUNT-1 [8] | Pretilost, bez dijabetesa | 5 mg | 72 tjedna | ≈ −15% |
| SURMOUNT-2 [7] | Pretilost + dijabetes tipa 2 | 15 mg | 72 tjedna | ≈ −14,7% |
| SURMOUNT-5 [10] | Pretilost, izravna usporedba sa semaglutidom | ≤15 mg | 72 tjedna | Superiorniji od semaglutida |
Izravna pobjeda nad semaglutidom
Neizravne usporedbe i kohorte iz stvarnog svijeta već su neko vrijeme upućivale na to [12], ali ispitivanje koje je to potvrdilo izravno je usporedilo dva lijeka pri dozama za pretilost u istoj populaciji, pri čemu je tirzepatid pobijedio u prosječnom gubitku težine s velikom razlikom [10]. Kod dijabetesa tipa 2, SURPASS-2 je već pokazalo superiornost nad semaglutidom 1 mg u pogledu i glikemijskih i težinskih ishoda [9].
Rezultati koji se ne odnose na težinu
Dva posebno provedena ispitivanja pomaknula su tirzepatid izvan kategorije pretilosti.
- Opstruktivna apneja u snu. Kod odraslih osoba s umjerenim do teškim OSA-om i pretilošću, tirzepatid je značajno smanjio indeks apneje-hipopneje u odnosu na placebo [6]. To je prvi farmakološki tretman s randomiziranim dokazima za stanje koje se prije liječilo skoro isključivo CPAP-om.
- Zatajenje srca s očuvanom ejekcijskom frakcijom. Kod HFpEF-a s pretilošću — fenotipa s vrlo malo učinkovitih tretmana — tirzepatid je poboljšao ishode u odnosu na placebo [4].
- Kardiovaskularni događaji. Posebna usporedba s dulaglutidom izvijestila je o kardiovaskularnim ishodima kod dijabetesa tipa 2 [11], što se nadovezuje na ranije unaprijed definiranu metaanalizu koja nije pronašla signal kardiovaskularne štetnosti.
Također se spominje u europskim smjernicama o steatotičnoj bolesti jetre uz semaglutid [2].
Često postavljana pitanja
Je li Mounjaro isto što i Zepbound?
Je li tirzepatid jednostavno bolji od semaglutida?
Uzrokuje li GIP komponenta dodatni gubitak težine?
Moram li doći do doze od 15 mg?
