In Japanese adults with type 2 diabetes, HbA1c reductions with tirzepatide were greater in those with baseline HbA1c above 8.5% (LSM differences -3.13% to -3.86%) than in those with baseline HbA1c of 8.5% or lower (-2.00% to -2.32%), with a significant treatment-by-baseline HbA1c interaction (P <= 0.001).
In plain wordsIn Japanese adults with type 2 diabetes, tirzepatide lowered HbA1c more in people who started with higher HbA1c than in people who started lower.

In this exploratory subgroup analysis of SURPASS J-mono, we examined mean change in HbA1c and body weight and the incidence of adverse events (AEs) in patients with a baseline HbA1c of ≤8.5% versus >8.5% after treatment with tirzepatide (5, 10 or 15 mg) or dulaglutide 0.75 mg.
