AmiensAges 18–70 - NCT04583800Recruiting
Tracking heart failure risk and memory change in diabetes
This study follows adults with type 2 diabetes to see who may develop heart problems and who may have memory or thinking changes over time. It may help doctors better predict risk and plan earlier support.
LilleAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT04657367Recruiting
Diabetes and prediabetes health tracking registry study
This study is a registry that collects information from people with diabetes, prediabetes, or normal blood sugar to better understand these conditions over time. It may help researchers learn which factors are linked to health changes, including future diabetes risk.
Bialystok, Podlaskie VoivodeshipAges Any age - 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+ - NCT04678895RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose naltrexone for nerve pain from diabetes
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a low dose of naltrexone can reduce painful nerve pain caused by diabetes. It may help people whose diabetic nerve pain did not improve with at least one standard treatment.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT04687215Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for painful diabetic nerve pain
This trial studies whether a spinal cord stimulator can reduce pain from diabetic nerve damage in the legs. It focuses on people with long-lasting type 2 diabetes and significant, treatment-resistant pain.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04699734Recruiting
Nerve block for nerve pain from diabetes
This trial studies whether a numbing “nerve block” can reduce long-lasting nerve pain caused by diabetic neuropathy. You may keep your usual pain medicines, and the study will mainly check whether you fit the safety and diagnosis criteria.
Aarhus N, JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT04783441Recruiting
Continuous glucose sensor study after kidney transplant
This study checks whether using a continuous glucose monitor (a sensor that tracks sugar throughout the day) is helpful and practical for people with a recent kidney transplant and type 2 diabetes on insulin. You may need to wear the sensor continuously and still do finger-stick glucose checks for safety.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04786262RecruitingPhase 3
Study of VX-880 for long-standing type 1 diabetes
This Phase 3 trial tests how safe, tolerable, and effective VX-880 is for people with type 1 diabetes who have had it for many years. It may help reduce problems related to blood sugar swings, especially severe low blood sugar episodes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT04791371Recruiting
Study how fitness and insulin resistance relate to diabetes
This study looks at how low physical activity, insulin resistance in small blood vessels, and cardiorespiratory fitness connect to diabetes and blood sugar control. You may be eligible if you are generally sedentary and fit within the weight range, and if you do not have certain heart, lung, nerve, or medication factors.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 30–55 - NCT04791449Recruiting
Exercise program for healing diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests whether an exercise program can help wounds (ulcers) heal faster in people with diabetic foot ulcers. It mainly looks for adults with type 2 diabetes and enough blood flow to the foot, and checks safety and healing progress.

CBT-I sleep therapy to improve blood sugar in older adults
This study tests whether a structured therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) can help improve blood sugar control in older adults with type 2 diabetes. It targets people who have both high blood sugar levels and troublesome insomnia, aiming to see if better sleep improves glycemic measurements.
Hong KongAges 60 years+ - NCT04874012RecruitingPhase 2
Taurine supplement study for blood sugar, fats, and inflammation
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking taurine affects blood sugar control, cholesterol/fats, and inflammation in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help by improving these lab markers, which are linked to long-term health risks.

CT heart scan study in adults with type 2 diabetes
This trial uses a low-dose CT scan of the heart’s arteries to measure coronary artery calcification in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to better understand heart calcium buildup and may help improve risk assessment for people with diabetes.

- How do I know if I qualify for a diabetic 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 diabetic 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.
