Recruiting studies
- NCT05610865RecruitingPhase 1

Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 65 years+ - NCT03811470Recruiting
Diabetes registry study for adults
This study creates a diabetes “registry,” which is a large record of people with diabetes. It helps researchers understand diabetes patterns and how metabolic health changes over time, which may improve future care.
Multiple LocationsAges 18 years+ - NCT07212075Recruiting
Digital twin study for mental health in diabetes
This study uses digital twins—a virtual model of your health—to track how your mental health changes with diabetes. It aims to find patterns that could help personalize mental health care.
Bad Mergentheim, Baden-WurttembergAges 18–80 - NCT04187443RecruitingPhase 1
Drug MS-553 for diabetic eye swelling with reduced vision
This Phase 1 trial tests MS-553 to see how it works and how safely it can be given to people with diabetic retinopathy causing central macular swelling (macular edema). You may be considered if your vision and eye scan results match, and if you can follow frequent study visits.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05692778Recruiting
Care program for people with diabetes and foot problems
This trial is testing an improved care approach for people with diabetes who have foot complications, delivered through primary care. It may help by organizing care more effectively and supporting better diabetes and foot management.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06549023Recruiting
One session vs multiple sessions of laser for diabetic eye disease
This study compares having laser treatment for diabetic eye disease in one session versus spreading it over multiple sessions. The goal is to find out if one approach is better for your eyes and easier for you.
MölndalAges 18 years+ - NCT07351786Recruiting
Newer diabetes drugs and eye protection study
This trial is looking at whether newer diabetes drugs (like SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors) can help protect the eyes of people with long-standing type 2 diabetes. The study focuses on preventing or slowing diabetic retinopathy, a common eye complication.
AlexandriaAges 25 years+ - NCT07617519Recruiting
Remote monitoring for diabetes care at Steno Center
This study looks at how remote patient monitoring—tracking your diabetes from home using technology—changes the care you receive at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen. Researchers will compare your care before and after the monitoring system is introduced to see if it helps improve outcomes.
HerlevAges Any age - NCT03988764Recruiting
Checking monogenic diabetes wrongly labeled as type 1
This trial looks at people who were diagnosed with diabetes before age 25 as either type 1 or “not sure which type.” It may help confirm whether the cause is genetic (monogenic) rather than type 1, which can change treatment choices.
Montreal, QuebecAges 1 day–25 years - NCT06124586Recruiting
Early angioplasty for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests if an early procedure to open blocked leg arteries (angioplasty) helps heal foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to improve blood flow and prevent amputation.
DüsseldorfAges 18 years+ - NCT06405373Recruiting
Coping skills program for type 1 diabetes distress

Brain Care Study: Screen and help for thinking decline in type 2 diabetes
This study screens older adults with type 2 diabetes for early signs of memory or thinking problems, and offers a program to help keep the brain healthy. It aims to find out if a combination of lifestyle changes, mental exercises, and medical support can slow cognitive decline.
CopenhagenAges 65 years+ - NCT07036796RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,211 recruiting diabetes studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a diabetes trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a diabetes trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
