Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percent Change From Baseline in Body WeightBaseline, Week 72Values represented under Least Squares (LS) Mean are model-based estimates (MBE) of the unconditional average treatment effect. MBE was calculated using a mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) for post-baseline measures with region + Baseline\*Time\*Treatment + Strata\*Time\*Treatment in the model. Strata were defined by joint levels of sex (female, male) and background oral antihyperglycemic medications (AHMs) classified according to their potential effect on body weight (promoting weight gain, weight reduction, or weight neutrality). Variance-covariance structure for change from baseline was unstructured.

Change From Baseline in Short Form-36 Health Survey Version 2 (SF-36v2) Acute Form (Physical-Component and Mental-Component) Scores (Pooled Doses of Orforglipron 6 mg, 12 mg and 36 mg)Baseline, Week 72The SF-36v2 acute form, (1-week recall version) assesses participants' health-related quality of life on 8 domains: Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional, and Mental Health. The physical functioning domain assesses limitations due to health "now," whereas the remaining domains assess functioning "in the past week." Each domain is scored individually, and information from these 8 domains is aggregated into 2 health component summary scores, the Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary. Items are answered on Likert scales of varying lengths (3-point, 5-point, or 6-point scales). Scoring of each domain and both summary scores are norm based and presented in the form of T-scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate better levels of function and/or better health. Range cannot be specified in norm-based scores.
