Current status: TRIUMPH-4 results available: December 2025 readout showing 28.7% weight loss at 68 weeks (Giblin et al., PMID 41090431) Additional TRIUMPH trials: Expected to report results through 2026, including TRIUMPH-Outcomes (cardiovascular endpoints, NCT06383390, completion Feb 2029) NDA submission timing: Eli Lilly must compile the full trial package before submitting
