Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Objective: To compare the effect of once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of subcutaneous semaglutide (0.5 mg and 1.0 mg) versus once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of subcutaneous dulaglutide (0.75 mg and 1.5 mg) in subjects with type 2 diabetes on a background treatment with metformin with regards to: - Body weight control - Blood pressure - Patient reported outcomes - Safety and tolerability;Main Objective: To compare the effect of once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of subcutaneous semaglutide (0.5 mg and 1.0 mg) versus once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of subcutaneous dulaglutide (0.75 mg and 1.5 mg) on glycaemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes on a background treatment with metformin.;Primary end point(s): Change in HbA1c;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline to week 40
