Type 2 diabetes

Participants will be randomised (1:1) to receive once weekly IcoSema or once daily insulin glargine.
-up to 2 weeks screening period
-a 40-week treatment period
-a 5-week follow-up period
IcoSema should be taken once weekly at the same day of the week. The starting dose at randomisation (V2) will be 40 dose steps, which is equivalent to 40 units of insulin icodec and 0.114 mg of semaglutide. The maximum dose of IcoSema is 350 dose steps.
Insulin glargine should be taken once daily at the same time every day. The starting dose should be 10U per day. There is no minimum or maximum dose of insulin glargine.

Change in HbA1c: From baseline week 0 (V2) to week 40 (V42)

Change in body weight: From baseline week 0 (V2) to week 40 (V42)
