Brief summary

This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people living with obesity to lose weight and maintain the weight loss long-term. The study has 2 parts: The first part is called 'the main study' and the second part is called 'the extension study'. In the main study participants will either get CagriSema (a study medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine that looks like CagriSema but has no active ingredient). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants are two times more likely to get CagriSema than placebo. If participants get CagriSema in the main study, participants will continue on CagriSema in the extension study. Which dose of CagriSema participants will continue on is decided by chance. If participants get placebo in the main study, participants will get CagriSema in the extension study. Participants will take one injection of study medicine once a week. The study will last for about 3 years and 3 months.

Interventions

CagriSema (Cagrilintide B and Semaglutide I) will be administered subcutaneously using DV3384 pen-injector.

Placebo matched to Cagrilintide B and placebo matched to Semaglutide I will be administered subcutaneously using DV3384 pen-injector.

Masking description

Participants in the main phase will be randomised in double blinded manner to receive either CagriSema or matching placebo.

Change in control of eating questionnaire (CoEQ): craving control scoreFrom baseline (week 0) to week 80Measured as score on a scale. CoEQ is a 19-item multidimensional PRO that assesses the experience of hunger, satiety, and severity and type of food cravings. CoEQ consists of 4 subscales that measure craving control (5 items), positive mood (4 items), craving for sweet (4 items), craving for savoury food (4 items), and 2 single items that address hunger and satiety. Each item is evaluated on a 0-10 (i.e., 11-point) numeric rating scale. The total score for each subscale is calculated as the sum of the item scores divided by the number of items in the subscale. Scores ranges are thus: Craving Control 0-50/5 = 0-10); Positive Mood (0-40/4 = 0-10); Craving Sweet (0-40/4 = 0-10); Craving Savoury food (0-40/4 = 0-10); single items that address hunger and satiety (0-10). For the craving control subscale, the subscale score is reversed so that a higher score represents a greater level of craving control.

Each item is evaluated on a 0-10 (i.e., 11-point) numeric rating scale. The total score for each subscale is calculated as the sum of the item scores divided by the number of items in the subscale.

For the Positive Mood subscale, item 6 'How anxious have you felt?' is reversed.
