- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Study 1: BMI 30 kg/m2 or more, or BMI from 25 kg/m2 to under 30 kg/m2 with high blood pressure, prediabetes, abnormal blood fats, heart or blood vessel disease, or sleep apnea. Study 2: BMI 25 kg/m2 or more and T2DM (diagnosed, or HbA1c 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or higher at screening).
- Earlier treatment
