Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial was conducted in Europe,Asia and Africa. Study participants were randomised evenly to treatment with semaglutide (0.1 mg QW - 1.6 mg QW, 6 treatment arms, placebo or liraglutide (1.2 mg QD, or 1.8 mg QD).Treatment allocation to semaglutide or placebo was double-blind, whereas liraglutide treatment was administered open-label.Primary efficacy parameter was HbA1c and the treatment duration was 12 weeks.
