Editor's note
FLOW stopped early for benefit. 3,533 patients with type-2 diabetes and CKD; 24% risk reduction on a composite of kidney failure, ≥50% eGFR loss, and kidney/CV death. The kidney indication GLP-1s have been chasing — landed cleanly.

Lincoff A.M. et al.
The first hard-endpoint cardiovascular outcomes trial of a GLP-1 in non-diabetics. 17,604 patients with prior CV disease and BMI ≥27; 20% relative reduction in MACE at mean 39.8 months. This is the paper that moved semaglutide from a weight-loss drug to a cardiovascular drug.
Jastreboff A.M. et al.
Tirzepatide's coming-out party. At the 15 mg dose, participants lost a mean 22.5% of body weight over 72 weeks across 2,539 adults without diabetes — numbers that approach bariatric-surgery territory and reset every expectation for pharmacotherapy.
Wilding J.P.H. et al.
The trial that turned semaglutide into a household word. 14.9% mean body-weight reduction at 68 weeks vs. 2.4% on placebo across 1,961 adults — the result that opened the floodgates for the entire GLP-1 wave.
Aronne L.J. et al.
The head-to-head everyone was waiting for. 751 adults over 72 weeks: 20.2% weight loss with tirzepatide vs. 13.7% with semaglutide at max tolerated doses — a 6.5-point gap that's clinically meaningful but smaller than the marketing suggests. Both drugs work; tirzepatide works more.
