For example, weight reduction outcomes at 24 weeks were as follows: 1 mg : 7.2% 4 mg : 12.9% 8 mg : 17.3% 12 mg : 17.5% Placebo : 1.6% At 48 weeks, the differences became even more pronounced: 1 mg : 8.7% 4 mg : 17.1% 8 mg : 22.8% 12 mg : 24.2% Placebo : 2.1% The table below summarizes these outcomes, including the percentage of participants achieving clinically significant weight loss (5% and 15%) by dose level: Notably, doses of 8 mg and above achieved a 100% rate of clinically significant weight loss (5%) at 48 weeks, with the 12 mg dose leading to 83% of participants achieving 15% weight loss
