Inhaled insulin vs injections for gestational diabetes
This trial compares an inhaled insulin (Afrezza) to insulin injections for managing blood sugar after meals in women with gestational diabetes. The goal is to see if the inhaled option works as well and is easier to use.
Santa Barbara, CaliforniaAges 18–40 - NCT04008147Recruiting
Testing iron-related hormones and sugar levels in mid-pregnancy
This study looks at how the hormone hepcidin and blood sugar/metabolism change during pregnancy, and how they respond to either stopping iron supplements briefly or taking a specific prenatal iron-containing multivitamin. It may help doctors better understand iron balance in pregnancy and how it could affect metabolism.
ZurichAges 18–45 - NCT05544266Recruiting
Study rare diabetes patterns to better guide diagnosis
This study looks at people who may have a “non-typical” form of diabetes, including rare genetic causes or unusual symptoms. It may help your care team understand what type of diabetes you have and whether specific genetic testing could explain it.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Any age - NCT06666933Enrolling by invitation
Time-restricted eating for PCOS with glucose issues during IVF
This study tests whether a time-restricted eating plan (eating only during certain hours of the day) can improve pregnancy rates in women with PCOS and glucose metabolism problems who are undergoing IVF. The goal is to see if this eating pattern helps your body respond better to treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 20–38 - NCT06357728Recruiting
Tracking blood sugar during pregnancy
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor to track blood sugar levels during pregnancy in women of Chinese or Indian ethnicity. It aims to better understand glucose patterns in pregnancy.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 21–45 - 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 - NCT05085704Recruiting
Brain scans to study metabolism in healthy and diabetic people
This study uses MRI brain scans at different strengths to measure how the brain uses energy (metabolism) in health and in people with genetically confirmed G1D. It may help researchers understand brain energy changes related to metabolic disease and diabetes.
New York, New YorkAges 16–80 - NCT03994367Recruiting
Study of diet protein types and how they affect blood sugar
This study looks at how eating more or different types of proteins (animal vs plant) may change your blood sugar handling. It mainly targets adults who eat relatively little protein and have no diabetes.
Columbia, MissouriAges 21–70 - NCT07172009Recruiting
Does chlorhexidine mouthwash affect blood sugar after meals?
This trial tests whether using chlorhexidine mouthwash changes how your body handles sugar after eating. It may help us understand a new way to manage blood sugar levels.
Plymouth, DevonAges 18 years+ - NCT06763562Recruiting
How food order affects blood sugar and energy use at rest
This study looks at whether the order in which you eat certain foods (edamame, butter, and rice) can change your blood sugar levels and how your body uses energy while resting. It may help people understand simple meal patterns for better health.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 18–70 - NCT03540758RecruitingPhase 2
Study of how brain sugar control channels affect blood sugar
This Phase 2 study tests how certain channels in the brain help control how your body makes and releases sugar (glucose). It may help explain blood sugar problems in people with type 2 diabetes and healthy volunteers.

Pig pancreatic cell transplant for type 1 diabetes
This trial tests a new treatment made from pig pancreatic cells (called OPF-310) that are placed under the skin to help control blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes. It is for those whose diabetes is difficult to manage and who have dangerous low blood sugar episodes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 35–70 - NCT06930976Recruiting
Tracing sugar use in immune cells
This study uses a special sugar (glucose) to see how your immune cells use energy. You drink a labeled sugar, then give blood samples so researchers can track it.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06373016Recruiting
Ketone drink study for stable bipolar disorder
