Exclusion Criteria in the Orforglipron Weight Management Clinical Trials

No information is available on the use of orforglipron in patients with autoimmune abnormalities. Patients were excluded from the orforglipron studies if they had evidence of a significant, active autoimmune abnormality, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, that, in the investigator's opinion, was likely to require concurrent treatment with systemic glucocorticoids during the study.1,2

Clinical Considerations

Eli Lilly and Company cannot provide treatment recommendations on the use of orforglipron in patients with a history of a significant and active autoimmune disorder. In formulating an assessment and approach, the health care practitioner may consider

  • the information provided
  • the patient’s prior medical history and concomitant medications, and
  • other individual factors.

The health care practitioner should consider potential risks and benefits of treatment options and monitor appropriately.
