HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) of 7.0-9.5 % (53-80.3 mmol/mol) (both inclusive)
Stable daily dose of metformin (above or equal to 1500 mg or maximum tolerated dose as documented in the subject medical record) alone or in combination with a stable daily dose of a SGLT-2 (sodium-glucose co-transporter-2) inhibitor for at least 90 days prior to day of screening (fixed-dose combinations are allowed)

Exclusion criteria

Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of child-bearing potential and not using an adequate contraceptive method (adequate contraceptive measure as required by local regulation or practice).For certain specific countries: Additional specific requirements apply
