Modeling analysis ranks tirzepatide above semaglutide and orforglipron
The paper leans on SURMOUNT-5, where tirzepatide produced 20.2% weight loss versus 13.7% for semaglutide at week 72.

The wire
- 01An Omics paper combined trial evidence, molecular descriptors and multi-criteria decision analysis, ranking tirzepatide highest under balanced, efficacy- and safety-weighted models.
- 02Orforglipron, the first oral non-peptide GLP-1 agonist to finish phase 3, ranked first only under an accessibility-weighted model driven by oral dosing and manufacturing scale.
- 03This is a computational re-analysis, not new clinical data; the authors note the balanced model was fragile under Monte Carlo sensitivity testing.
