Purpose

The study will look at how well CagriSema helps people lower their blood sugar and body weight. CagriSema is a new weekly medicine that combines two medicines called semaglutide and cagrilintide. CagriSema will be compared to the two medicines semaglutide and cagrilintide, when they are taken alone. CagriSema will also be compared to a "dummy" medicine without any active ingredient. The study will be done in participants who have type 2 diabetes. Participants will take the study medicine together with the current diabetes medicine (metformin with or without an SGLT2 inhibitor).

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male or female. - Age 18 years or above at the time of signing the informed consent. - Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus greater than or equal to 180 days before screening. - Stable daily dose(s) greater than or equal to 90 days before screening of any of the following antidiabetic drug(s) or combination regimen(s) at effective or maximum tolerated dose as judged by the investigator: metformin with or without Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. - Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) 7.0-10.5 percent (53-91 millimoles per mole [mmol/mol]) (both inclusive) as determined by central laboratory at screening. - Body Mass Index (BMI) greater than or equal to 25 kilogram per square metre ( kg/m^2) at screening. BMI will be calculated in the electronic case report form (eCRF) based on height and body weight at screening.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Renal impairment with estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) less than 30 milliliters per minute per 1.73 square metre (mL/min/1.73 m^2) as determined by central laboratory at screening. - Treatment with any medication for the indication of diabetes or obesity other than stated in the inclusion criteria within 90 days before screening. However, short term insulin treatment for a maximum of 14 consecutive days and prior insulin treatment for gestational diabetes are allowed. - Uncontrolled and potentially unstable diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy. Verified by a fundus examination performed within 90 days before screening or in the period between screening and randomisation.
