Accurate Statements
MOUNJARO (tirzepatide) is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or MEN 2.
Label excerpt Section 4 (Contraindications): contraindicated in patients with personal/family history of MTC or MEN 2 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
Tirzepatide is associated with thyroid C-cell tumors in rats, and it is unknown whether this translates to thyroid C-cell tumors (including MTC) in humans; patients should be counseled and informed of symptoms.
Label excerpt Section 5.1 (Risk of Thyroid C-Cell Tumors): dose- and duration-dependent thyroid C-cell tumor increases in rats; unknown human relevance; contraindication reminder; counsel patients and inform symptoms.
Nonclinical evidence described in the label includes increased thyroid C-cell adenomas and adenomas/carcinomas in a rat carcinogenicity study.
Label excerpt Section 13.1 (Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility): statistically significant increases in thyroid C-cell adenomas; and adenomas/carcinomas combined in rats.
Patient counseling includes informing patients that MOUNJARO causes thyroid C-cell tumors in rats and that human relevance has not been determined, and advising symptom reporting (e.g., lump in neck, persistent hoarseness, dysphagia, dyspnea).
Label excerpt Section 17 (Patient Counseling Information) under Risk of Thyroid C-Cell Tumors.
Claim that MOUNJARO (tirzepatide) poses a risk of thyroid C-cell tumors (including MTC) and is contraindicated in patients with personal/family history of MTC or MEN 2.
Supported by combined provided excerpts from Section 5.1 (risk discussion) and Section 4 (contraindications), with clinical risk management tied to MTC/MEN 2.
