Recruiting studies
- NCT05317455RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Studying brain sugar changes in adults with risky low blood sugar
This early-stage study looks at how the brain uses sugar in people with type 1 diabetes who have had severe or hard-to-notice low blood sugar. It may help researchers understand the brain effects of low blood sugar and guide safer care.

This study looks at how autoimmune encephalitis affects brain metabolism using a special PET scan. It aims to better understand the condition in people who were recently diagnosed.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06315725Recruiting
Artificial sweeteners and blood sugar in type 1 diabetes
This study tests whether artificial sweeteners affect blood sugar levels in people with type 1 diabetes. If you use an insulin pump and have well-controlled diabetes, you may be able to join.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–45 - NCT06700525Recruiting
StandUPTV Habits: Reducing Screen Sitting Time
This study tests a phone app called StandUPTV Habits that helps people sit less while using screens. If you spend a lot of time watching TV or on your phone and want to be more active, this study may teach you new habits.
Tempe, ArizonaAges 23–64 - NCT06739993Recruiting
Can breathing exercises improve blood sugar in prediabetes?
This study tests if a special breathing technique (heart rate variability biofeedback) can help people with prediabetes improve their blood sugar control. You will attend screening visits and practice breathing exercises at home to see if this lowers your risk of developing diabetes.
Mainz, MainzAges 18–65 - NCT07045142RecruitingPhase 3
Metformin for blood sugar issues from statins in schizophrenia
This trial tests whether metformin can help prevent or manage blood sugar problems that may arise when people with schizophrenia take statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs). If you have schizophrenia, are on a stable medication routine, and have high cholesterol but not diabetes, this study might be an option.
Zhumadian, HenanAges 18–65 - NCT07315282Recruiting
Iron supplements for overweight women: effects on blood sugar
This study tests whether oral iron supplements can improve how the body uses insulin and manages blood sugar in overweight or obese women with low iron stores.
BeirutAges 18–45 - NCT01803451RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Tested after gastric bypass for low blood sugar
This early study looks at a gut hormone–based treatment (GLP-1) and how it affects blood sugar and digestion after gastric bypass. It may help people who are having repeated low blood sugar episodes after surgery.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT02823665RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Compare how bariatric surgery affects blood sugar changes
This early trial studies how blood sugar moves in people after certain weight-loss surgery compared with people without surgery. It may help researchers understand why blood sugar can drop too low and how treatments like atropine affect that process.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT02685969Recruiting
Brain scan study of amyloid and brain sugar use
This study uses brain imaging to measure two things in the brain—amyloid protein and how the brain uses sugar. It may help researchers better understand early brain changes in people in the ALFA project.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 45–75 - NCT07482020RecruitingPhase 2
SGLT2 inhibitor for atrial fibrillation, high blood pressure, and high blood sugar
This study tests whether a medication called an SGLT2 inhibitor (a type of diabetes drug) can improve the function of the upper left heart chamber in people who have paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, high blood pressure, and abnormal blood sugar levels. If you qualify, the trial may help your heart work better and reduce your risk of stroke.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07656298Recruiting
Sweetener preference study for healthy adults
This study tests how different sweeteners affect your body if you have a sweet tooth. If you are generally healthy and like sweet foods or drinks, you may be able to join.
Málaga, MalagaAges 18–65 - NCT05015881Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Brain and heart scans in alcohol use disorder
This study uses special brain and heart scans to see how sugar (glucose) is used in people with alcohol use disorder compared with people without it. It may help researchers understand the brain–heart connection in alcohol use disorder.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 21–65 - NCT06066775Recruiting
Glucose, fats, and brain health in aging
This study looks at how blood sugar and fat levels relate to brain aging over time. It may help understand why some people's brains age faster than others.
Jinan, ShandongAges 50 years+ - NCT07329231Recruiting
Quinoa for early type 2 diabetes control
This study tests whether adding quinoa to your diet can help manage blood sugar and improve how your body uses insulin. It focuses on people recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 20–70 - NCT04328337RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study tests how rising fatty acids affect brain fuel use
This early-phase study will raise fatty acid levels temporarily and see how the brain uses glucose (sugar) and processes energy. It may help researchers understand how metabolism in the body can change brain function.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–45 - NCT05912348Recruiting
Study of how an unhealthy lifestyle affects active young adults
This study looks at how eating or daily habits that promote weight gain (“obesogenic” lifestyle) affect fitness and health markers in young adults who already exercise. It may help researchers understand what lifestyle changes matter most, and whether certain patterns affect active people differently.
Durham, New HampshireAges 18–30 - NCT06862180Recruiting
Meal replacement for diabetes control trial
This trial tests whether replacing one meal a day with a special shake can help people with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar control and overall health. If you have type 2 diabetes, take diabetes pills, and your blood sugar is not well controlled (HbA1c 7–10%), you may be able to join.
Kubang Kerian, KelantanAges 30–65 - NCT07420998Recruiting
Carob extract's effect on blood sugar in prediabetes
This study tests whether a nutritional product with carob extract can help people with slightly high blood sugar (glucose intolerance or prediabetes) improve how their body handles carbohydrates. It may help lower blood sugar and reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
MurciaAges 18–65 - NCT05737342Recruiting
Test supplement to lower A1c and steady blood sugar
This trial studies ANKASCIN 568-P products to see if they can lower A1c (a blood sugar average) and help regulate blood glucose. It may help people with early blood sugar problems, but you must avoid diabetes medicines during the study.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT05775627Recruiting
Study how sleep affects metabolism in healthy adults
This trial studies how changes in sleep and the body’s daily rhythm may affect metabolism (how your body handles energy and sugar). It is for generally healthy, medication-free young adults who follow a controlled diet and sleep schedule.
Portland, OregonAges 18–40 - NCT06507722Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for glucose metabolism?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 103 recruiting glucose metabolism studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a glucose metabolism 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 glucose metabolism 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.
