For the first 14 weeks of the study, participants will get cagrilintide and semaglutide as 2 separate injections. Then participants will either switch to getting the medicines as a combined injection or continue to get the separate injections for 8 weeks. Which treatment participants get after the first 14 weeks is decided by chance.

Participants will get the study medicines once a week for 22 weeks. A study nurse at the clinic will inject the medicines with a thin needle in participants stomach area.

The study will last for about 8 months.Participants will have 28 clinic visits with the study staff. For 4 of these visits, participants will stay in the clinic for 5 nights.

Participants will have blood drawn at 21 visits. Participants will have clinical assessments and participants will be asked about their health, medical history and habits including mental health questionnaires.
