A Research Study to See if Two Different Formulations of Oral Semaglutide Are Equally Safe and Effective in Reducing the Blood Sugar Level in Japanese People With Type 2 Diabetes

Prior treatment

• Previous participation in this study. Participation is defined as signed informed consent.
• Previous or planned (during the study period) obesity treatment with surgery or a weight loss device.
• Use of any medication with unknown or unspecified content within 90 days before screening.
• Myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or hospitalization for unstable angina pectoris within 60 days before screening.
• Uncontrolled and potentially unstable diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy. Verified within 90 days before screening or in the period between screening and randomisation.
• Treatment with medication for diabetes or obesity 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.
• Any episodes of diabetic ketoacidosis within 90 days before screening.

Other illness

• Known or suspected hypersensitivity to study intervention(s) or related products.
• Any disorder, unwillingness or inability which in the investigator's opinion, might jeopardise the participant's safety or compliance with the protocol.
• Personal or first degree relative(s) history of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 or medullary thyroid carcinoma.
• Presence of clinically significant gastrointestinal disorders potentially affecting absorption of drugs and/or nutrients, as judged by the investigator.
• History of major surgical procedures involving the stomach potentially affecting absorption of study products or current presence of gastrointestinal implant.
• Chronic heart failure classified as being in New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class IV at screening.
• Presence or history of malignant neoplasms or in situ carcinomas within 5 years before screening.

Lab values

• Anticipated initiation or change in concomitant medications for more than 14 consecutive days affecting weight or glucose metabolism.
• Impaired liver function, defined as Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) ≥ 2.5 times or Bilirubin \>1.5 times upper normal limit at screening.
• Renal impairment with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than (\<) 30 millilitres per minute per meter square (mL/min/1.73 m\^2) as per 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula (CKD-EPI) formula (by creatinine) at screening.

Other

• Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of childbearing potential and not using adequate contraceptive method.
• Current participation (i.e., signed informed consent) in any other interventional clinical study.
• Exposure to an investigational medicinal product within 90 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational medicinal product (if known), whichever is longer, before screening.
• History or presence of pancreatitis (acute or chronic).
• Planned coronary, carotid or peripheral artery revascularisation.

• Informed consent obtained before any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any procedures that are carried out as part of the study, including activities to determine suitability for the study.
• Japanese male or female.
• Age 18 years or above at the time of signing the informed consent.
• Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D) greater than or equal to (≥) 90 days prior to day of screening.
• Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) of 7.0-10.5 percent (%) (53-91 millimoles per mole \[mmol /mol\]) (both inclusive) at screening.
• Stable daily dose(s) ≥ 60 days before screening with any 1-2 of the following oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs): Sulfonylurea (SU), glinide, thiazolidinedione (TZD), alpha-glucosidase inhibitor (α-GI), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor or metformin (effective or maximum tolerated dose as judged by the investigator) according to Japanese labelling.
