A Study of Orforglipron for the Maintenance of Body Weight Reduction in Participants Who Have Obesity or Overweight With Weight-Related Comorbidities (ATTAIN-MAINTAIN)

June 2, 2026 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

A Phase 3b, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Orforglipron Once Daily Versus Placebo for Maintenance of Body Weight Reduction in Participants Who Have Obesity or Overweight With Weight-Related Comorbidities

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orforglipron on maintenance of body weight reduction in participants who previously completed treatment with injectable tirzepatide (Zepbound) or injectable semaglutide (Wegovy) in the SURMOUNT-5 trial (NCT05822830).

Detailed Description

All enrolled participants will have completed SURMOUNT-5 (I8F-MC-GPHJ; NCT05822830) on treatment and meet further eligibility and randomization criteria. SURMOUNT-5 randomized participants to either injectable tirzepatide (Zepbound) or injectable semaglutide (Wegovy); therefore, all ATTAIN-MAINTAIN participants had prior exposure to one of these injectable incretin-based therapies before transitioning directly to orforglipron 12 mg capsule or placebo. All endpoints for this study will be evaluated separately per each intervention arm of SURMOUNT-5.
