Recruiting studies
- NCT07516509Recruiting
How muscle cells respond to blood sugar in different body types
This research study examines how muscle cells handle blood sugar differently depending on whether someone is lean or has obesity, and whether their body resists insulin. Researchers will take small muscle samples to understand the genetic differences, which may help develop better treatments for insulin resistance and metabolic health.

Gene study in women with severe insulin resistance and PCOS
This study is looking for women with a type of severe insulin resistance linked to genetics, especially those who have PCOS or a condition called lipodystrophy. The goal is to better understand the genes involved so doctors can offer more targeted treatments.
ParisAges 18–45 - NCT05950282Recruiting
Study of insulin sensitivity differences by age and PCOS status
This study looks at how well the body uses insulin (insulin sensitivity) across different ages, sexes, races, body weights, and whether someone has PCOS. It may help researchers understand why insulin function varies and how PCOS could be linked to metabolic health.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07703371Recruiting
Kodo millet porridge and its effect on gut health and metabolic syndrome
This study tests whether eating Kodo millet porridge every day for 12 weeks can improve gut health and reduce risk factors for metabolic syndrome (like being overweight). If you are between 20 and 60 years old, are overweight or obese, and are willing to eat the porridge daily without changing your diet or exercise, you may be able to join.
Mysore, KarnatakaAges 20–60 - NCT07221279Recruiting
Walking study for weight and heart health in adults
This study tests if a specific number of daily steps can help overweight or obese adults improve body composition and reduce heart disease risk. It's for people who are otherwise healthy but may have high blood pressure or joint pain managed by medication.
Kennesaw, GeorgiaAges 20 years+ - NCT01143480Recruiting
Testing how the body responds to endotoxin
This study checks how your immune system (your body’s defense system) reacts to a controlled substance that triggers inflammation. It may help researchers understand why some people have stronger or weaker inflammatory responses.
Research Triangle Park, North CarolinaAges 18–100 - NCT07415720Recruiting
Artichoke and Mediterranean diet to prevent type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether a special extract from artichoke by-products, combined with a Mediterranean diet, can help prevent type 2 diabetes in people who are at risk. It aims to improve how your body handles sugar and insulin.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 18–75 - NCT07460856Recruiting
Can Cranberries Improve Your Gut and Metabolic Health?
This study tests if eating cranberries can improve your gut health and metabolism. It’s for people who are overweight and have early signs of metabolic problems, like high blood sugar or high triglycerides.
Québec, QuebecAges 25–70 - NCT06138821Recruiting
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty for obesity and MASH

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for insulin resistance syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 49 recruiting insulin resistance syndrome 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 insulin resistance syndrome 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 insulin resistance syndrome 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.
