Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Body weight
Body weight will be measured both prior to and following treatment for 68 weeks with either semaglutide or placebo. Changes in body weight will be compared for the two intervention arms, before, throughout and at the end of treatment and then at followup 6 weeks later.
74 weeks

Study Arms (2)
Semaglutide
ACTIVE COMPARATORSubcutaneous injection through injector pen with the active comparator Semaglutide once a week in monthly increasing doses as given: 0.25mg - 0.5mg - 1.0mg - 1.7mg - 2.4mg
Semaglutide placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORVisually identical injector pen without the active comparator.
Interventions
The active comparator of the intervention is s.c. Semaglutide injection once a week in increasing doses every month from 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg to 1.0 mg to 1.7 mg to 2.4 mg and the placebo comparator is s.c. injection with a visually identical and same label pen as described for the active comparator
Visually identical and same label as the active comparator intervention
