LeicesterAges 18 years+ - NCT06661668Recruiting
Stomach pacemaker implant for severe gastroparesis
This study tests whether placing a small, implanted device that sends gentle electrical pulses to the stomach can improve symptoms of severe gastroparesis—a condition where the stomach empties too slowly.

Screening close family for type 1 diabetes risk
This study screens close family members of people with type 1 diabetes for early signs of the condition. A simple blood test looks for special markers (autoantibodies) that can show if the immune system is starting to attack the pancreas. Finding these markers early may help doctors prevent or delay the onset of diabetes.
Petah TikvaAges 2–45 - NCT06666283RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for diabetic kidney disease
