About this trial

The purpose of this clinical study is to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating people who have excess body weight and type 2 diabetes. There are 2 study treatments in this study taken as injections under the skin once a week. Participants will either get NNC0487-0111 (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (treatment that has no active medicine in it). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female (sex at birth).

Age 18 years or above at the time of signing informed consent.

Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus more than equal to (≥) 180 days before screening.

Treatment with lifestyle intervention, and/or 0-3 marketed oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD)s (metformin, α-glucosidase inhibitors (AGI), glinides, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), thiazolidinediones, or sulfonylureas (SU) as a single agent or in combination) according to local label. Treatment with oral antidiabetic drugs should be stable (same drug(s), dose and dosing frequency) before screening.

Disqualifiers

Renal impairment with estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) less than (<) 30 milliliter per minute per meter square (mL/min/1.73 m²) [2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula], at screening.

Participant with diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy who received treatment with retinal photocoagulation, vitrectomy or anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (anti-VEGF) before screening or are expected to require treatment after screening. Diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy must be verified by an eye examination performed within 90 days before screening or in the period between screening and randomisation. Pharmacological pupil-dilation is a requirement unless using a digital fundus photography camera specified for non-dilated examination.

Known hypoglycaemic unawareness as indicated by the investigator according to Clarke's questionnaire question 8.

Recurrent severe hypoglycaemic episodes within the last year as judged by the investigator.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Relative change in body weight

Measured as percentage (%) of body weight.

Time frame
From baseline (week 0) to (week 84)

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in waist circumference

Measured as centimetre (cm).

Time frame
From baseline (week 0) to (week 84)
2

Change in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c)

Measured as percentage (%) of HbA1c.

Time frame
From baseline (week 0) to (week 84)
3

Change in systolic blood pressure (SBP)

Measured as millimetre of mercury (mmHg).

Time frame
From baseline (week 0) to (week 84)
4

Change in Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Lite Clinical Trials Version (IWQOL-Lite-CT) physical function score

Measured as score on a scale. IWQOL-Lite-CT measures weight-related physical functioning. The measure consists of 20 items yielding 3 composite scores, and 1 total score. The physical function score ranges from 0-100. Higher scores indicate better levels of functioning.

Time frame
From baseline (week 0) to (week 84)
