Recruiting studies
- NCT00001987Recruiting
Understanding genetics of insulin resistance and diabetes
This research study looks at the genes and immune system factors that cause severe insulin resistance—a condition where the body doesn't respond well to insulin. Researchers want to understand why some people develop this problem and study family members and healthy volunteers to learn more.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–120 years - NCT02193295Recruiting
Testing how changing fats affects insulin resistance
This study tests how “lipid” (fat) changes in the body affect insulin resistance, which is when the body doesn’t respond to insulin as well as it should. Because it’s done in healthy people, it’s mainly looking at basic biology and may help guide future treatments.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–90 - NCT02647827RecruitingPhase 2
Acupuncture or metformin for insulin resistance in PCOS
This study tests whether acupuncture or the diabetes medicine metformin can improve insulin resistance in women with PCOS. It may help with hormone-related symptoms and metabolic health, comparing the two approaches against usual care for non-PCOS controls.
BeijingAges 18–40 - NCT07408479Recruiting
How starch digestion affects blood sugar and health in insulin resistance
This trial studies how different types of starch (carbohydrates) affect blood sugar control, inflammation, and gut health in people with insulin resistance. You may benefit if you are overweight, have insulin resistance, and are willing to follow a specific diet for 2 months.
LyonAges 18–75 - NCT07427134Recruiting
Insulin dose calculator app for type 1 diabetes in children
This study tests a new insulin dose calculator app for children under 12 with type 1 diabetes who use daily insulin shots and already count carbs.
MosulAges 1–12 - NCT07440147Recruiting
Akkermansia and Berberine for night shift workers' insulin sensitivity
This trial tests whether taking a probiotic called Akkermansia muciniphila and a natural plant compound called berberine can improve how your body uses insulin. If you work night shifts regularly, this study may help you find a way to support your metabolic health.

A study on MOTS-c for improving insulin sensitivity
This trial tests an investigational peptide (MOTS-c) to see if it can improve how your body uses insulin. It's for adults with prediabetes and excess weight who are not yet on diabetes medications and can maintain a stable diet and activity level for 12 weeks.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07507708Recruiting
Smart insulin system with behavior support for type 1 diabetes
This study tests a smart insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor system that adjusts insulin automatically and uses behavior support to improve blood sugar control. It's for people with type 1 diabetes who have used an approved automated insulin delivery system recently and are willing to use study devices.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07611721Recruiting
Testing a glucose monitor in critically ill surgery patients
This study tests whether a wearable glucose monitor (Dexcom G7) works well in patients in intensive care after major abdominal surgery or organ transplant who need insulin therapy. The monitor measures blood sugar continuously to help doctors manage insulin doses more safely.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07650682Recruiting
Blood Sugar and Hormone Patterns in Type 2 Diabetes
This study uses math models to understand how your blood sugar and hormones respond to food and insulin. You'll eat study foods and provide blood samples so researchers can better predict how your body handles diabetes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–65 - NCT07551947Enrolling by invitation
Insulin Resistance and Heart Rhythm Ablation Success
This study examines whether how your body handles insulin (a hormone that controls blood sugar) affects the success of a new ablation procedure called pulsed field ablation, which treats irregular heart rhythms. Researchers want to understand which patients benefit most from this treatment.
TřinecAges 18 years+ - NCT07545538Enrolling by invitation
Carbohydrate Drink Before Surgery to Help Kids Recover
This study tests whether drinking a special carbohydrate solution before surgery helps children's bodies handle the stress of the operation better and recover more smoothly. The drink may reduce complications related to blood sugar control after surgery.
Yogyakarta, Special Region of YogyakartaAges 2–16 - NCT03407833Enrolling by invitation
Study changes in the body after weight, gut, or liver treatment
This study looks at how the body’s insulin-sensitivity (how well your body uses sugar/insulin) and organ function change after certain medical procedures. It may help researchers understand why some people improve after surgery or liver transplant and guide future care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07773779Recruiting
App and nutrition support for blood sugar control
This study tests a smartphone app combined with dietary guidance to help adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar levels. Participants will use the app with their continuous glucose monitor to track meals and get personalized support, with the goal of better glycemic control and quality of life.
New York, New YorkAges 18–75 - NCT07606872Enrolling by invitation
Testing a diabetes score to guide treatment reversal
This study tests a new scoring system to help people with type 2 diabetes understand their condition better and potentially reverse or improve it. You'll use a digital platform to track blood sugar, answer health questions, and have blood tests to see if the system helps guide your treatment plan.
Manchester, EnglandAges 18 years+ - NCT07635576Recruiting
How Stomach Stimulation Affects Insulin Levels
This study looks at how a surgically implanted device that stimulates the stomach (called a GES device) affects your body's insulin levels. Researchers will collect blood samples over several hours to understand if and how the device influences insulin production.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–70 - NCT03883412RecruitingPhase 4
Exercise and liraglutide for type 2 diabetes
This study tests if combining exercise with a drug called liraglutide improves blood vessel health and insulin sensitivity in people with type 2 diabetes. It looks at whether these treatments work better together or alone.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 21–60 - NCT07724522Recruiting
Prebiotic Fiber for Irregular Periods in Women
This study tests whether taking a prebiotic fiber (inulin) can help women who are in the later years of their reproductive life (before menopause) and have irregular periods. You may be eligible if you are overweight, have irregular cycles, sit a lot, and do not exercise much.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 40–55 - NCT07412028Recruiting
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 - NCT04715022RecruitingTeam says not enrollingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vitamin C study for insulin resistance in obesity
This early-stage study tests whether vitamin C (and possibly how your body uses it) affects blood vessel function in people with obesity and insulin resistance. You may be asked to stop certain supplements before starting so researchers can measure the effect more clearly.
Kansas City, KansasAges 35–65 - NCT07223151Recruiting
A taste test to help teens drink fewer sugary sodas

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for insulin?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 353 recruiting insulin 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 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 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.
