Tirzepatide for Postmenopausal HR+ Breast Cancer Survivors with Obesity
This study is looking at whether tirzepatide, a medication given weekly, is a practical and acceptable treatment for postmenopausal women who have had hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer and also have obesity. Researchers want to see if participants are willing and able to take tirzepatide for 24 weeks (about 6 months), and if it helps with weight and overall health. You would have monthly check-ups. To join, you must be a woman aged 18 or older, postmenopausal, and have obesity (BMI of 30 or higher, or 27.5 or higher for Asian ancestry). The study aims to see how many participants complete all required assessments at 24 weeks. The current recruitment status is unclear.
