| Group 1 | Semaglutide 2.4 mg | Participants initiated at a once-weekly dose of 0.24 mg semaglutide s.c. as a adjunct to a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity and followed a fixed-dose escalation regimen, with dose increase every 4 weeks (to doses of 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 and 2.4 mg/week), until the target dose was reached after 16 weeks.

Participants were followed up for 7 weeks after end of treatment till week 75. | 27 | 269 | EG000 |
