Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05674799Recruiting
Program to lower future obesity and diabetes risks
This trial tests a lifestyle and coaching program (NDPP-NextGen) to help reduce the chances of obesity and diabetes risk passing to the next generation. It’s for people planning a pregnancy soon and who may be at higher risk due to body weight.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–39 - NCT05681468Recruiting
Ketogenic diet trial for blood sugar and inflammation outcomes
This study compares two versions of a ketogenic (very low-carb) diet to see how they affect blood sugar control and inflammation. It may help people with overweight or obesity who have pre-diabetes-level blood sugar understand which fat sources work better.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–70 - NCT01129297Recruiting
Severe obesity tissue study during surgery
This study collects small tissue samples during certain abdominal surgeries to better understand what drives severe obesity and related blood-sugar patterns. If you agree to the extra sampling, your information and samples may help researchers build a “biological atlas” that could guide future treatments.
Lille, NordAges 18–65 - NCT05663515Recruiting
Checks pancreatic cancer risk after starting exenatide in type 2 diabetes
This study looks at whether starting exenatide (a type 2 diabetes medicine) is linked to a higher or lower risk of pancreatic cancer compared with other similar diabetes medicines. It uses people’s prescription and medical record history to compare risks over time.
CopenhagenAges 18–99 - NCT05659147Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
MRI study of pancreas function in children with pancreatic issues
This study uses a special pancreas MRI to see how well the pancreas works and how pancreas disease changes over time. It also compares MRI findings in children with different pancreas conditions, including suspected pancreatic insufficiency and episodes of pancreatitis.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 5–21 - NCT05558605Recruiting
AI ultrasound guidance for heart risk management
This trial tests whether using an artificial-intelligence (AI) tool during a heart ultrasound can help guide care for people at risk for heart problems. You might benefit if you have symptoms with exercise or heart risk factors, but you do not already have known heart failure or major heart disease.
Alice Springs, Northern TerritoryAges 45 years+ - NCT05585190Recruiting
Sit-stand desk study for people at diabetes risk
This trial tests whether using a sit-stand desk at work helps people who are overweight and at risk for diabetes. Participants may be asked to change how much they sit during the workday to improve health markers.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–79 - NCT05589155Recruiting
Using a phone app to improve blood sugar and weight
This study looks at whether a mobile phone app can help people with type 2 diabetes improve their health habits, including blood sugar monitoring and weight. You may be able to join if you already check your blood sugar daily and are able to use a smartphone.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–64 - NCT05545306Recruiting
Study tests how extra calories change your daily energy use
This study looks at how eating more calories affects your body’s natural heat production and total energy use over a full day. It may help researchers better understand how the body manages weight and energy.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–60 - NCT05543083Recruiting
Therapy plus exercise for teens at risk of type 2 diabetes
This trial tests whether a combination of coaching (cognitive-behavioral therapy) and exercise can improve mood and help teens who are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes. It may be especially helpful if you’re dealing with depression symptoms and a family history of type 2 diabetes.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 12–17 - NCT05548205Recruiting
Glucose monitoring for people starting insulin after hospital discharge
This study checks whether using a continuous glucose monitor for 2 weeks after you leave the hospital helps you manage blood sugar better when you are newly starting insulin. It may help your care team adjust insulin and track glucose trends more closely right after discharge.
Mineola, New YorkAges 18–100 - NCT05470504RecruitingPhase 2
Pegvisomant for severe insulin resistance from rare fat or gene problems
This Phase 2 study tests pegvisomant, a medicine that blocks growth hormone, to see if it can improve severe insulin resistance in people with a specific genetic cause or a rare fat distribution condition. If you fit the rare diagnosis, the study may help clarify whether growth-hormone blocking can improve blood sugar and related health markers.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT05482321Recruiting
