Is SURMOUNT-4 a fair comparison of mazdutide against its comparator arm?

Asked 22 Nov 2025Modified 8 months agoViewed 4.8k times

Setup, so nobody has to ask: SURMOUNT-4 · mazdutide.

This has the shape of a fact but I cannot find its origin.

What I found instead were three secondary sources all citing each other.

Can anyone point me at a primary source, or confirm that there is not one?
