Main objective

Scope: Efficacy, Safety

GZPO: The purpose of this Master Protocol is to support two studies to see how well and how safely orforglipron works compared to placebo in participants who have obesity or overweight with or without type 2 diabetes. Participants will be screened for about 4 weeks, after which they will enroll into either J2A-MC-GZP1 (do not have type 2 diabetes) or J2A-MC-GZP2 (have type 2 diabetes).

GZP1: The main purpose of this study is to see how orforglipron, compared with placebo, helps reduce body weight in participants with obesity or with overweight and at least one other related health condition (excluding type 2 diabetes). This trial is part of the master protocol study J2A-MC-GZPO.

GZP2: The main purpose of this study is to see how orforglipron, compared with placebo, helps improve glycemic control in participants with obesity or with overweight and type 2 diabetes. This trial is part of the master protocol study J2A-MC-GZPO.
