This study will look at how well a new medicine called NNC0519-0130 helps people with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar and body weight. The study will test up to 7 different doses of NNC0519-0130. Which treatment the participant will get is decided by chance. Participants will take 1-3 injections once a week. The study medicine will be injected under the skin with a thin needle in the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. The study will last for about 40 weeks.

NNC0519-0130 is a new medicine that may possibly help participants with type 2 diabetes, as it is expected to lower elevated sugar levels in the blood. The medicine may also lower the appetite. This could help reduce overweight which is often present in participants with type 2 diabetes.

At the recent SEC meeting for Endocrinology and Metabolism held on 7th March 2024, the expert panel reviewed the Phase 2 clinical study protocol No.: NN9541-4945 version 2.0 dated 08 January 2024.

After detailed deliberation, the committee recommended a grant of permission to conduct the trial as presented by the firm.
