(whichever is longer) at the time of screening (visit 1) 4. any participant who has received any of the following medications within the specified timeframe prior to visit 2: herbal preparations or drugs licensed for control of body weight or appetite (eg, orlistat, bupropion, naltrexone, phentermine-topiramate, phentermine, lorcaserin, opiates, domperidone, metoclopramide, or other drugs known to alter gastric emptying) 5. concurrent participation in another study with a study drug and prior randomisation in this study is prohibited 6. severe allergy/hypersensitivity to any of the proposed study treatments, excipients, or standardised meals 7. symptoms of acutely decompensated blood glucose control (eg, thirst, polyuria, weight loss), a history of type 1 diabetes mellitus or diabetic ketoacidosis, or if the participant has been treated with daily sc insulin within 90 days prior to screening. 8. abnormal thyroid stimulating hormone (tsh) level of \ 10 miu/l confirmed on two consecutive tests 9. regularly engage in high intensity exercise at least three times per week or have done so in the prior three months 10. clinically significant inflammatory bowel disease, gastroparesis or other severe disease or surgery affecting the upper gastrointestinal tract (including weight-reducing surgery and procedures) which may affect gastric emptying or could affect the interpretation of safety and tolerability data 11. acute or chronic pancreatitis 12. significant hepatic disease (except for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis or nonalcoholic fatty liver disease without portal hypertension or cirrhosis) and/or participants with any of the following results at screening: 1. aspartate transaminase (ast) \>= 3 × upper limit of normal (uln) 2. alanine transaminase (alt) \>= 3 × uln 3. total bilirubin \>= 2 × uln 13. impaired renal function defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (egfr) \< 45 ml/minute/1.73 m\^2 at screening (gfr estimated according to the chronic kidney disease-epidemiology collaboration (ckd-epi) or the modification of diet in renal disease (mdrd) using mdrd study equation isotope dilution mass spectrometry-traceable \[international system of units (si) units\] 14. poorly controlled hypertension defined as: 1. systolic blood pressure (bp) \> 180 mm hg 2. diastolic bp or \> 100 mm hg after 10 minutes of supine rest and confirmed by repeated measurement at screening. participants who fail bp screening criteria may be considered for 24-hour ambulatory bp monitoring at the discretion of the investigator. participants who maintain a mean 24-hour bp \ 15% will be considered eligible 15. unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack or stroke within 3 months prior to screening, or participants who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention or a coronary artery bypass graft within the past 6 months or who are due to undergo these procedures at the time of screening 16.
