A Research Study to Compare Two Different Versions of Injectable Cagrilintide and Placebo in People With Excess Body Weight

Purpose

The purpose of this clinical study is to look at how well a study medicine called cagrilintide helps people living with excess body weight to lose weight. Participants will either get cagrilintide, the active study medicine being tested or placebo, a medicine that has no active medicine in it. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Cagrilintide is a new medicine under development that doctors cannot prescribe yet, but it has been tested in humans before. Participants will be in this clinical study for about 9 months.
