Obesity is a chronic disease, not simply a number on the scale.
Our Principal Investigator, Dr. Saundra Maass-Robinson, explains why obesity requires ongoing chronic disease management and why researchers are examining more than pounds lost or changes in waist circumference.
Clinical trials are also evaluating broader measures of health, including blood pressure, lipids, inflammation markers, and cardiovascular indicators.
Dr. Maass-Robinson also references findings from separate semaglutide and tirzepatide trials. Because these were not head-to-head studies, their results should not be interpreted as a direct comparison.
For patients, research participants, sponsors, CROs, and investigators, these broader outcomes can provide a more complete picture of metabolic health.
