Participant Flow

The trial was conducted at 19 sites in the United States (US).

Total 338 adults with obesity (BMI greater than or equal to (\>=30.0) kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2)) or overweight (BMI \>= 27.0 kg/m\^2) and at least one weight-related comorbidity were randomized in a 3:1:3:1 manner to receive treatment with either semaglutide subcutaneously (s.c.) 2.4 milligram (mg) once weekly or semaglutide placebo once weekly or liraglutide s.c. 3.0 mg once daily or liraglutide placebo once daily as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Measure
Semaglutide 2.4 mg
The trial included an initial dose-escalation period during which the dose was gradually increased (0.24, 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 milligram (mg)) to the maintenance dose of semaglutide 2.4 mg once weekly (16-week dose-escalation period). After the dose escalation period, treatment continued on the maintenance dose up to week 68 (end of treatment). In week 44, all participants switched from the PDS290 pen-injector to the DV3396 single-dose pen-injector. A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.
Liraglutide 3.0 mg
The trial included an initial dose-escalation period during which the dose was gradually increased (0.6, 1.2, 1.8, 2.4 mg) to the maintenance dose of liraglutide 3.0 mg once daily (4-week dose-escalation period). After the dose escalation period, treatment continued on the maintenance dose up to week 68 (end of treatment). A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.
Pooled Placebo
Participants received placebo matched to either once weekly semaglutide or once daily liraglutide up to week 68 (end of treatment). In week 44, all participants randomized to semaglutide placebo switched from the PDS290 pen-injector to the DV3396 single-dose pen-injector. A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.

Measure
Semaglutide 2.4 mg
n=126 participants at risk
The trial included an initial dose-escalation period during which the dose was gradually increased (0.24, 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 milligram (mg)) to the maintenance dose of semaglutide 2.4 mg once weekly (16-week dose-escalation period). After the dose escalation period, treatment continued on the maintenance dose up to week 68 (end of treatment). In week 44, all participants switched from the PDS290 pen-injector to the DV3396 single-dose pen-injector. A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.
Liraglutide 3.0 mg
n=127 participants at risk
The trial included an initial dose-escalation period during which the dose was gradually increased (0.6, 1.2, 1.8, 2.4 mg) to the maintenance dose of liraglutide 3.0 mg once daily (4-week dose-escalation period). After the dose escalation period, treatment continued on the maintenance dose up to week 68 (end of treatment). A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.
Pooled Placebo
n=85 participants at risk
Participants received placebo matched to either once weekly semaglutide or once daily liraglutide up to week 68 (end of treatment). In week 44, all participants randomized to semaglutide placebo switched from the PDS290 pen-injector to the DV3396 single-dose pen-injector. A follow-up visit (end of trial) for safety assessments was scheduled 7 weeks after end of treatment.
