This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and open-label active comparator-controlled, parallel-group, dose-range-finding, Phase II study aims to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of RO7795081 for glycemic control in adult participants with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).

• Have an HbA1c ≥7% and ≤10.5% at screening
• Management of T2D with diet and exercise alone or with either a stable dose of metformin or/and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors
• Body mass index (BMI) ≥23.0 kg/m^2 at screening
• A stable body weight within 3 months prior to screening (maximum 5% self-reported body weight gain and/or loss)

• Have had 1 or more episodes of Level 3 hypoglycemia or has hypoglycemia unawareness within the 6 months prior to screening
• History or presence of proliferative diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, or non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy that requires acute treatment
• Evidence of clinically significant/active nephropathy or neuropathy (including resting tachycardia, orthostatic hypotension, and diabetic diarrhea)
• Current treatment or treatment within 3 months of screening with any other anti-hyperglycemic medication except metformin or SGLT-2 inhibitors
• Have obesity induced by other endocrinologic disorders (e.g., Cushing's syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (e.g., melanocortin-4 receptor deficiency or Prader-Willi Syndrome)
• Have a known, clinically significant gastric emptying abnormality
• Have poorly controlled hypertension at screening, untreated renal artery stenosis, or evidence of labile blood pressure including symptomatic postural hypotension
