Study population text

Adults will be selected from the TriNetX US Collaborative Network, a distributed database of de-identified electronic health records contributed by participating healthcare organizations across multiple clinical systems and practice settings. The study population consists of adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes who received routine clinical care in this network and were identified through diagnosis records, body mass index data, and medication prescribing data. Comparator-specific cohorts were defined within this source population to evaluate pre-diagnosis glucose-lowering treatment strategies before obesity-associated cancer diagnosis.

Inclusion criteria

Adults aged 18 years or older
BMI ≥27 kg/m2, or diagnosis codes consistent with obesity
Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Initiation of a glucose-lowering medication before obesity-associated cancer diagnosis
Incident obesity-associated cancer diagnosed after medication initiation
No dispensing of the study drug class during the 6-month washout period before the first qualifying prescription

Exclusion criteria

Type 1 diabetes mellitus, Other specified diabetes types that are not type 2 diabetes
Human immunodeficiency virus infection
End-stage renal disease
Prior bariatric surgery
Prior organ transplantation
Transplant-related complications
Any use of tirzepatide before cohort entry
