Summary

The main purpose of this study is to compare the effects of semaglutide (Ozempic®) with the effects of other treatments for type 2 diabetes in a normal practice setting. The participant will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to one of the following treatment groups: Group 1: semaglutide (Ozempic®) (by injection into skin) Group 2: standard of care antidiabetic medication (oral or injectable). The participant has an equal chance of being in either of the treatment groups. Neither the participant nor the study doctor or study staff will be able to pick which group the participant is in, but the participant will know which study drug the participant has been assigned to. The study doctor will provide the participant with a prescription for the study diabetes medication based on the treatment group the participant is assigned. The participation will last about 2 years.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

DRUG

Semaglutide

Participants will be prescribed commercially available semaglutide s.c. and will be instructed to initiate treatment with semaglutide s.c. according to the approved label. The study doctor will determine the intended maintenance dose of semaglutide, as well as changes to the maintenance dose thereafter.

DRUG

Standard of care

Participants will receive standard of care, defined as commercially available oral or injectable antidiabetic medication other than semaglutide. Participants will be prescribed and instructed to initiate commercially available antidiabetic medication according to the approved label and, if relevant for the specific antidiabetic medication, adjusted at the discretion of the study doctor.
