Tirzepatide (TZP, 5, 10, 15 mg/week) , a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, reduced HbA1c levels more than titrated daily insulin glargine (iGlar) in people inadequately controlled on oral diabetes treatments with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and high cardiovascular risk (median study duration 85 weeks) . Here, we compared progression to pre-specified kidney endpoints between TZP and iGlar. Composite kidney outcomes in SURPASS-4 were analysed: endpoint 1 (eGFR [CKD-EPI] decline ≥40% from baseline, renal death, progression to ESRD, new onset macroalbuminuria) and endpoint 2 (endpoint 1 without new onset macroalbuminuria) . Data were examined within the entire study population, and in subgroups defined by baseline SGLT2i use, UACR ≥30 mg/g, eGFR &lt;60 mL/min/1.73m2 and in those at high risk for kidney related outcomes, defined as eGFR &lt;75 mL/min per 1.73 m2 and macroalbuminuria, or eGFR &lt;45 mL/min per 1.73 m2. At baseline, participants (N=1995, age 63.6 years, HbA1c, 8.5%) had a mean eGFR of 81.3 mL/min per 1.73 m2; 17% had eGFR &lt;60 mL/min per 1.73 m2, 28% microalbuminuria (UACR 30-300 mg/g) and 8% macroalbuminuria (UACR &gt;300 mg/g) . During the follow-up to 1weeks, TZP participants experienced significantly fewer renal outcomes, especially new onset of macroalbuminuria versus iGlar (Table) . In people with T2D and high cardiovascular risk, TZP reduced markers of diabetic kidney disease risk.
