18 months in and TRIUMPH is still the thing I get wrong
Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud. The advice on TRIUMPH in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with…
SELECT reported a SURMOUNT hazard ratio but the absolute event rate is what changes clinical practice.
SURMOUNT-4 discontinuation arm showed regain. That is the reality of a chronic disease treatment, not a failure.
Strongly agree. Phase 2 is investigational, not conclusive.
event rates are more informative than hazard ratios alone
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
Strongly agree. Phase 2 is investigational, not conclusive.
the relative risk reduction in headlines is not the whole story
