Once-weekly insulin study for type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether switching from daily basal insulin to once-weekly insulin icodec improves blood sugar control, treatment satisfaction, and how well people stick with the new insulin. It may be a good option if you have type 2 diabetes and are already using a daily basal insulin.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07650682Recruiting
Blood Sugar and Hormone Patterns in Type 2 Diabetes
This study uses math models to understand how your blood sugar and hormones respond to food and insulin. You'll eat study foods and provide blood samples so researchers can better predict how your body handles diabetes.

- How do I know if I qualify for a diabetes (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2) 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 (insulin-requiring, type 1 or type 2) 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.
