Who can enroll
Inclusion criteria
1. Male or female, age ≥18 years at the time of signing informed consent
2. Body Mass Index (BMI)
i. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)
3. History of at least one self-reported unsuccessful dietary effort to lose body weight
4. Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the trial
5. Woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must be ready and able to use highly effective methods of birth control per ICH M3 (R2) that result in a low failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly. A list of contraception methods meeting these criteria and instructions on the duration of their use will be provided in the patient information.
6. In the investigator's opinion, patients are well-motivated, capable, and willing to:
Exclusion criteria
Obesity:
1. Body weight change (self-reported) >5% within 3 months before screening
2. Treatment with any medication for the indication obesity within 3 months before screening
3. Previous or planned (during the trial period) treatment for obesity with surgery or a weight loss device, or prior surgery of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract that could interfere with body weight The following are allowed: (1) liposuction and/or abdominoplasty, if performed >1 year before screening, (2) lap banding, if the band has been removed >1 year before screening, (3) intragastric balloon, if the balloon has been removed >1 year before screening, (4) duodenal-jejunal bypass sleeve, if the sleeve has been removed >1 year before screening, (5) appendectomy, (6) simple hernia repair, or (7) cholecystectomy.
4. Have obesity induced by other endocrinologic disorders (i.e. Cushing Syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (i.e. melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency, leptin deficiency, or Prader Willi Syndrome)
Glycaemia:
For trial patients without T2DM:
5. History of T1DM or T2DM or treatment with glucose lowering agent started within 3 months before screening
For trial patients with T2DM:
6. History of T1DM
7. Treatment with any medication for the indication of T2DM other than stated in the inclusion criteria within 3 months before screening (i.e. insulin, amylin analogues, GLP-1R agonists, GLP-1R agonist/insulin/GIP combinations, and DPP-4i)
8. New initiation of any other glucose-lowering investigational drug within 3 months prior to screening for this trial
Further exclusion criteria apply.
