- Brief Summary
This study will look at how CagriSema, semaglutide and cagrilintide regulate insulin effects in the body of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). CagriSema is a new investigational medicine that combines two medicines called cagrilintide and semaglutide. Doctors may not yet prescribe CagriSema. Participants will either get CagriSema, semaglutide, cagrilintide, or a ''dummy'' medicine. Which treatment the participants will get is decided by chance. Participants will get the study medicine together with the current daily diabetes medicine metformin. Participants should not take other medicines for diabetes during the study. The study will last for about 42 weeks.

- Aged 18-75 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing informed consent.
- Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes greater than or equal to (>=) 180 days before screening.
- Stable daily dose(s) of metformin at effective or maximum tolerated dose, as judged by the investigator for 90 or more days before screening with or without one additional oral antidiabetic drug (OAD), except for the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, or sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors in case of a high risk of cardiovascular disease (as judged by the investigator), or established cardiovascular disease, or chronic kidney disease (Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) less than (<) 60 milliliter per minute per 1.73 square meter [ml/min/1.73 m^2]).
- Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) at screening of 6.5-9.5 percent (48-80 millimoles per mole [mmol/mol]) (both inclusive) if on metformin only, or 6.0- 9.0 percent (42-75 mmol/mol) (both inclusive) if on metformin in combination with one other OAD. A minimum of 65% of randomised participants must have HbA1c >= 7.0 % at screening.

- Uncontrolled and potentially unstable diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy. Verified by a fundus examination performed within 90 days before screening or in the period between screening and randomisation. Pharmacological pupil-dilation is a requirement unless using a digital fundus photography camera specified for non-dilated examination.

- Treatment with any medication for the indication of T2D or weight management other than stated in the inclusion criteria within 90 days before screening. However, short term insulin treatment for a maximum of 14 consecutive days and prior insulin treatment for gestational diabetes are allowed.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To compare the effect of CagriSema versus placebo: Change in M-value in hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp (HEC) Baseline to week 28 M-value from the HEC is calculated from glucose infusion rate (GIR) over the last 30 minutes of the clamp, corresponding to steady state.
