Weekly injection for diabetes and weight loss
This study tests an experimental once-weekly injection called ribupatide for people with type 2 diabetes and overweight. It aims to help them lose weight and better control their blood sugar.
Cullman, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02973412Recruiting
How sleep timing affects blood sugar in diabetes
This study looks at your daily sleep–wake timing (“chronotype”) and how it may affect blood sugar control in people with diabetes. It may help researchers learn whether sleep patterns could improve glucose levels.
LeicesterAges 18–75 - NCT02986984Recruiting
Kidney biopsy study for people with diabetic kidney disease
This study aims to learn more about diabetic nephropathy (kidney problems caused by diabetes) using planned kidney tissue samples. You may benefit by helping researchers understand the disease better, and you may be eligible if you already have a medically needed kidney biopsy scheduled.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18–100 - NCT03022682Recruiting
Study of inflammation and metabolism across diabetes and weight
This is an observational study that follows generally healthy adults to understand how inflammation, diabetes (type 2), and weight/metabolic health relate to each other. It may help researchers figure out why different groups (including different ethnic backgrounds) have different health risks.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT03087032RecruitingPhase 4
Liraglutide injections vs insulin for uncontrolled type 2 diabetes
This trial compares two treatment approaches—liraglutide injections versus a specific insulin (glargine) injection—plus meal-time insulin dosing (“bolus”) in adults with overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes that isn’t well controlled. The goal is to see which option works better and is safer for improving blood sugar.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT03132129Recruiting
Heart imaging study in adults with type 2 diabetes
This study looks for early, “silent” changes in heart function in adults with type 2 diabetes, even if you feel okay. It uses heart scans and looks for factors that may help explain why these changes happen.
LeicesterAges 50–75 - NCT03403699Recruiting
Stem cell treatment for damaged eye blood vessels in diabetes
This study tests human iPSC–derived (lab-grown) cells aimed at repairing fragile, damaged blood vessels in diabetic retinopathy. It also involves eye exams and a small skin biopsy to support the research.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 21–98 - NCT03587948Recruiting
Diabetes eye study for teens with diabetes
This study looks at how diabetes affects the eyes in children and teens. It may help doctors better detect or understand eye problems earlier in people with diabetes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 5–18 - NCT03761446Recruiting
Testing how diabetes affects muscle loss after bed rest
This study looks at how pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes may change skeletal muscle loss and recovery in older adults after a period of bed rest. It may help researchers understand why recovery can be slower and how to better protect muscle in people as they age.
Orlando, FloridaAges 60–80 - NCT07662213RecruitingPhase 3
Elecoglipron vs semaglutide for type 2 diabetes
This study tests an experimental diabetes pill (elecoglipron) to see if it works as well as a current medicine, semaglutide, for people with type 2 diabetes who also have heart risk factors. It aims to help better control blood sugar and weight.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04164641Recruiting
Test software-guided walking analysis to help prevent foot ulcers
This study checks whether a computer system that analyzes your walking can help change gait (how you walk) to reduce the chance of diabetic foot ulcers coming back or leading to amputation. It is meant for adults who have had a healed diabetic foot ulcer before.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT04257877Recruiting
Studying blood proteins in children with type 1 diabetes
This study looks at blood protein patterns in children with type 1 diabetes to better understand the condition. It may help researchers find markers linked to how diabetes is doing, especially in young, early-stage children.
ThessalonikiAges 5–10 - NCT04442451Recruiting
Study how fatigue happens in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes
This study looks at why people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes may feel unusually tired during activities. You may be asked to do exercise testing and answer questions to help researchers understand the body changes behind fatigue.

- 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.
