SURPASS-CVOT — Tirzepatide in cardiovascular and type 2 diabetes: event-driven cardiovascular outcome trial
§1Structured abstract
§1.1Objective
To evaluate Tirzepatide in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular risk reduction and type 2 diabetes mellitus, against the comparator specified in §2, with the primary endpoint stated below.
§1.2Design
- Design
- Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven cardiovascular outcome trial
- Masking
- Double-blind with independent endpoint adjudication
- Phase
- Phase 3
- Randomised participants
- 13,299
- Duration of the primary analysis period
- Median 4.5 years
- Sponsor class
- Manufacturer-sponsored
- Registry identifier
- not reproduced — see the note in §1.5
§1.3Primary endpoint
Time to first major adverse cardiovascular event, tirzepatide versus dulaglutide
§1.4Principal result
Non-inferior to dulaglutide on the primary composite. The Institute records that an active-controlled non-inferiority design cannot establish superiority over placebo and does not report it as though it had.
§1.5Provenance of this abstract
Table 1. Field-by-field provenance. The Institute records which fields are extracted from a source and which are its own reconstruction, so that a reader can tell the two apart without leaving the page.
| Field | Provenance | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Design, phase, duration, primary endpoint | Extracted | Reproduced from the published report or the registry record. |
| Randomised participants | Extracted | Reproduced as published. |
| Principal result | Extracted | Reproduced as published, with the confidence interval where the Institute holds it. |
| Centres, countries and baseline characteristics | Reconstructed | Derived by the Institute from the design class and the randomised total. Presented in §2 as an illustrative operational profile and marked as such. These figures are not published characteristics of this trial. |
| Certainty assessment | Institute judgement | The Institute’s own domain-by-domain assessment, with reasoning recorded against each domain in §4. |
| Registry identifier | Not held | The Institute does not reproduce a registry identifier it has not verified and never constructs one. Documents are referenced by the Institute’s own identifier. |
