Effects of Tirzepatide on Gut Microbiota and Gastrointestinal Function After Drug Withdrawal in Obese Patients
Effects of Tirzepatide on Gut Microbiota and the Recovery Pattern of Gastric Emptying After Drug Withdrawal in Obese Patients
This is an observational cohort study. The primary objective is to analyze the dynamic changes in gut microbiota and metabolic profiles in obese patients treated with Tirzepatide. A total of 80 participants will be enrolled: 40 normal-weight controls (NW group) and 40 obese patients receiving Tirzepatide as part of their routine clinical care (OB-T group). Fecal samples for 16S rRNA sequencing and blood samples for metabolic markers will be collected at baseline and after 3 months. Changes in gut microbiota diversity and composition will be correlated with improvements in glucose and lipid metabolism. As per the approved protocol, exploratory follow-up assessments of gastrointestinal symptoms and gastric emptying parameters will also be conducted post-treatment.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Obesity is a global public health crisis, and gut microbiota dysbiosis plays a crucial role in its pathophysiology. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, has shown significant weight loss effects, but its impact on the human gut microbiome remains largely unexplored. This observational study aims to fill this gap by characterizing the longitudinal changes in gut microbiota in obese patients undergoing routine Tirzepatide treatment. The investigators will use 16S rRNA V3-V4 region sequencing to analyze microbial diversity and composition (Shannon, Simpson, Chao1 indices, PCoA, LEfSe). Furthermore, The investigators will explore the associations between these microbial shifts and improvements in glucose and lipid metabolism . As secondary and exploratory objectives, gastrointestinal symptoms (GSRS) and gastric emptying function (measured by 13C-octanoic acid breath test) will be monitored during the treatment and withdrawal phases to better understand the overall physiological impact of the treatment.
