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.
