Study of a high-fructose diet and gut health
This trial tests how a high-fructose diet affects your gut bacteria and overall metabolic health. It is for people who already know they don't absorb fructose well (fructose malabsorbers) and want to understand how this sugar impacts their body.
New York, New YorkAges 25–45 - NCT06398340Recruiting
Can a wearable device track what you eat?
This study uses a wearable device (like a smartwatch) to see if it can track what you eat. You would wear the device for a few days and report your meals. It is for generally healthy adults.
LondonAges 18–65 - NCT07209527Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Truway diagnostic tools in primary care
This trial tests new diagnostic tools that doctors can use in primary care. Researchers want to see if these tools help find the right diagnosis faster and more accurately.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06401577Recruiting
Acute pancreatitis and diabetes risk study
This study looks at how acute pancreatitis affects blood sugar and the risk of developing diabetes. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor and have metabolic tests to track changes over time.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06737224Recruiting
Fasting and exercise effects on immune health
This study looks at how a 48-hour fast, alone or combined with exercise, affects your immune system and blood sugar control. It may help explain how short-term fasting can improve health in active young adults.
Kelowna, British ColumbiaAges 19–35 - NCT06790472Enrolling by invitation
Metabolic wellness and continuous glucose monitor study
This study looks at how wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help employees of Sutter Health understand their metabolic wellness. You will wear a small sensor on your arm that tracks your blood sugar levels over time.

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.
