Boston, MassachusettsAges 30 years+ - NCT05766735Recruiting
Lifestyle program to lower sugar spikes after meals
This trial studies whether a structured lifestyle program can reduce “sugar spikes” after meals in people with early type 2 diabetes. It may help by combining coaching, tracking, and meal/activity changes to improve blood sugar control.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 30–80 - NCT05752292Enrolling by invitation
Pregnant with gestational diabetes: share risk info to help
This study is testing how to share risk information during pregnancy in a way that helps patients feel more informed and empowered. It includes people currently pregnant with gestational diabetes and will ask about your preferences and understanding.
Pleasanton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05776420RecruitingPhase 3

TorontoAges 19 years+ - NCT05777330Recruiting
Monitoring blood sugar swings to predict type 1 diabetes
This study watches blood sugar changes over time in people who do not yet have diabetes but have test results that suggest risk for type 1 diabetes. The goal is to see whether “blood sugar variability” can predict when high or low blood sugar may happen, even before symptoms.
Liège, LiègeAges 5–39 - NCT05689372Enrolling by invitation
Ozempic safety and effectiveness after launch in type 2 diabetes
This study tracks how Ozempic works and whether it stays safe for people with type 2 diabetes in everyday clinic care in Korea. You join because your doctor decides you should start Ozempic, and the study mainly monitors outcomes.
Jeonlabuk-doAges 19 years+ - NCT05706155Recruiting
Switching some animal protein to plant protein for Type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether replacing part of your animal protein with plant-based protein can improve Type 2 diabetes control. It may help your blood sugar and weight management without changing everything about your diet.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18–65 - NCT05704309Enrolling by invitation
Study of diabetes prevention participants using brain scans
This study looks at how people who previously took part in a diabetes prevention program are doing over time, including brain health using MRI scans for some participants. It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk for memory and thinking problems and why.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT01241864RecruitingPhase 2
Islet transplant for type 1 diabetes after kidney transplant
This trial tests whether transplanting insulin-producing “islet” cells can better control blood sugar in people who have already received a kidney transplant. It’s mainly for adults with type 1 diabetes whose body is no longer making enough insulin, while they are on kidney-transplant medicines.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–68 - NCT04602754RecruitingPhase 3
Oral treatment test for type 2 diabetes and bad cholesterol
This Phase 3 study tests whether Berlim 25/20 can improve blood sugar control and cholesterol (LDL) in adults with type 2 diabetes who haven’t met targets despite prior lifestyle guidance and treatment. It also looks at safety, including effects on the heart and medication-related side effects.
Campinas, São PauloAges 18–85 - NCT05028140RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a lifestyle-and-diet program for type 2 diabetes control
This Phase 3 study tests whether a program run by the Piemonte Association can improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes who haven’t reached their target after usual diet, exercise, and stable medicines. It also aims to check that the approach is safe for participants.
Hortolândia, São PauloAges 18–85 - NCT02390973Recruiting
Bariatric-style surgery vs best diabetes care for long remission
This trial compares surgery plus follow-up care versus the best non-surgical (medical) treatment to help people keep type 2 diabetes in remission for a long time. It may be an option if you have higher body weight and diabetes that’s not well controlled, but safety checks are strict.
Québec, QuebecAges 18–60 - NCT04670666RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Madalena for type 2 diabetes not controlled
This Phase 3 study tests Madalena to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes that hasn’t met targets despite diet, exercise, and diabetes medicines. You may join if your recent blood sugar tests and body size fall within specific ranges and you don’t have key medical exclusions.
Hortolândia, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT05651919Recruiting
Blood test study to understand diabetic heart weakness
This study measures immune cells from your blood to find markers (biomarkers) that may explain or predict diabetic cardiomyopathy, a type of heart condition linked to diabetes. You may benefit mainly by being closely monitored and contributing to research that could improve future diagnosis or risk tracking.
BronAges 40–85 - NCT05639478Recruiting
Foot care and exercise program for people with diabetes
This trial tests whether a structured foot-care and exercise program in primary care helps adults with diabetes. It may help you stay more active and reduce foot problems by teaching daily care and safe movement.
Limeira, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT05643144Recruiting
Shared decisions for dementia and diabetes care
This study tests a program that helps people with both memory problems (like dementia or mild cognitive impairment) and diabetes, along with their caregivers, make better care decisions together. It uses a special device to track blood sugar without fingersticks.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 65 years+ - NCT05641753RecruitingPhase 4
LDL-lowering study for adults with type 1 diabetes
This study looks at cholesterol lowering in adults with type 1 diabetes and whether it reduces “residual risk,” meaning risk that may remain even with current care. You may be asked to take cholesterol-focused treatment and complete blood tests to track LDL (“bad cholesterol”).
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT05653518Recruiting
Artificial pancreas therapy to steady sugars and protect the heart
This study tests an “artificial pancreas” system that automatically helps control insulin to reduce wide swings in blood sugar. It also aims to see whether steadier sugars can improve heart health in adults with type 1 diabetes.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–40 - NCT01630850Recruiting
Islet cell transplant for brittle type 1 diabetes
This trial studies whether transplanting insulin-producing islet cells can improve blood sugar control and reduce severe low blood sugar in people with “brittle” type 1 diabetes. It’s meant for adults with long-standing insulin dependence and troublesome, hard-to-control hypoglycemia.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT05623111RecruitingPhase 2
Nerve-area Botox shots for diabetic foot nerve pain
This Phase 2 trial tests whether injecting incobotulinumtoxin-A near painful nerves can reduce nerve-type pain in the feet for people with diabetes. If you have lasting, fairly symmetrical pain in both feet, the injections may help calm the nerve pain signals.
Glostrup MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05616026Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for diabetes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,136 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.
