Inclusion criteria

• Informed consent obtained before any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any procedures that are carried out as part of the study, including activities to determine suitability for the study.
• Male or female, age greater than or equal to 18 years at the time of signing informed consent.
• Body mass index (BMI) of

• greater than or equal to 28.0 kilogram per meter square (kg/m^2) or
• greater than or equal to 24.0 kg/m^2 with greater than or equal to 1 weight-related comorbidity (treated or untreated). Weight-related comorbidities should be hypertension, T2D, dyslipidaemia, obstructive sleep apnoea or cardiovascular disease.
• History of at least one self-reported unsuccessful dietary effort to lose body weight.

For participants with T2D at screening the following inclusion criteria apply in addition to criteria 1- 4:

• Diagnosed with T2D greater than or equal to 180 days prior to screening.
• Treated with either diet and exercise alone or stable treatment (same drug(s) or active ingredient, dose and dosing frequency) for at least 60 days prior to the day of screening with up to 3 oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD)s alone or in any combination (metformin, α-glucosidase (AGI), sulphonylureas (SU), glinides, SGLT2i (sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor) or glitazone).
• HbA1c 7.0 - 10.0 percent (53 - 86 millimoles per mole [mmol/mol]) (both inclusive) as measured by central laboratory at screening.

Participants without T2D at screening:

• HbA1c greater than or equal to 6.5 percent (48 mmol/mol) as measured by the central laboratory at screening.
• History of type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Participants with T2D at screening:

• Uncontrolled and potentially unstable diabetic retinopathy or maculopathy.
