- NCT06365723Recruiting
Walking in Nature vs. City for Prediabetes
This study compares walking in natural green spaces (like parks) versus walking in built environments (like city streets) for adults with prediabetes. You will be asked to walk three times a week for 30 minutes for 4 weeks in each setting, and researchers will see how your body responds.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 25–64 - NCT06967558RecruitingPhase 2
GLP-1 hormone role in prediabetes
This study looks at how a hormone called GLP-1, made in the pancreas, affects blood sugar levels in people with borderline high blood sugar (prediabetes). It may help find new ways to prevent diabetes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 25–70 - NCT06112418Recruiting
Personalized vs standard care to prevent heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to prevent heart attacks and strokes: one uses a special heart CT scan to guide care, the other uses standard risk factors like blood pressure and cholesterol. You may be eligible if you are older (men over 55, women over 65) and have diabetes, prediabetes, or metabolic syndrome.

Insulin pulses during fasting study
This study tests how insulin, given in pulses or continuously, affects your body during a fast. It may help researchers understand better ways to manage blood sugar in people with early blood sugar issues.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 25–65 - NCT06424106Recruiting
Glucagon & fasting insulin in people without type 2 diabetes
This study looks at how glucagon affects insulin release and blood sugar in people who do not have type 2 diabetes. It may help us understand normal glucose control better.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 25–65 - NCT02915198RecruitingPhase 4
Metformin for prediabetes to reduce heart and blood-vessel events
This trial tests whether taking metformin in people with prediabetes can lower the chance of future heart attack, stroke, or other blood-vessel problems. You may be a good fit if you have prediabetes plus existing cardiovascular disease or significant blood-vessel disease.

What taking part in a prediabetes study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there prediabetes clinical trials in Minnesota?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting prediabetes studies with a site in Minnesota, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a prediabetes study in Minnesota?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Minnesota to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Minnesota, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a prediabetes trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
