Conditions
Brief summary
This study will look at how the participants daily life is affected by their heart failure. The study will also look at the change in participants body weight from the start to the end of the study. This is to compare the effect on heart failure symptoms and on body weight in people taking semaglutide (a new medicine) to people taking dummy medicine. Participants will either get semaglutide or dummy medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach area, thigh or upper arm. During the study participants will have talks with the study staff about healthy lifestyle choices including healthy food and physical activity. The study will last for approximately 59 weeks. Participants will have 11 clinic visits and 1 phone call with the study doctor. Women: Women cannot take part if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
Interventions
Semaglutide will be injected into a skin fold, in the stomach, thigh or upper arm once a week at the same day of the week (to the extent possible) throughout the trial. Dose gradually escalated from 0.25 mg until target dose. The study will last for approximately 59 weeks.
Placebo will be injected into a skin fold, in the stomach, thigh or upper arm once a week at the same day of the week (to the extent possible) throughout the trial. The study will last for approximately 59 weeks.

Percentage of participants improving 10 points or more in KCCQ-CSS from baseline to end of treatment is presented. The KCCQ is standardized 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies heart failure symptoms(frequency, severity, and recent change), physical limitation, quality of life, and social limitation. KCCQ-CSS includes the symptom and physical limitation domains of the KCCQ. Scores are transformed to range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status. In reported data, 'Yes' infers percentage of participants who have improved 5 points or more in score whereas 'No' infers percentage of participants who have not improved 10 points or more in score. The outcome measure was evaluated based on the data from in-trial period. In-trial period was defined as the uninterrupted time interval from date of randomization to date of last contact with trial site.
Time frame: From baseline (week 0) to end of treatment (week 52)
Population: FAS included all the randomized participants for this trial. Here, Overall Number of Participants Analyzed signifies those participants who had an observed value at week 52.

The Hierarchical Composite Endpoint: Percentage of Wins of Participant Pairs
The hierarchical composite outcome measure from baseline (week 0) to end of study (week 57) consists of the components: time to all-cause death, number of heart failure events requiring hospitalization or urgent heart failure visit, time to first heart failure event requiring hospitalization or urgent heart failure visit, difference at least 15 in KCCQ CSS change from baseline to 52 weeks, difference at least 10 in KCCQ CSS change from baseline to 52 weeks, difference at least 5 in KCCQ CSS change from baseline to 52 weeks and difference at least 30 meters in six-minute walking distance change from baseline to 52 weeks. It was analyzed by the win-ratio approach using all participants pairs across treatment groups. Overall summary of wins in each treatment group is presented. The outcome measure was evaluated based on the data from in-trial period. In-trial period was defined as uninterrupted time interval from date of randomization to date of last contact with trial site.
