How sugar swings may affect brain and eating in type 1 diabetes
This study looks at whether changes in blood sugar (“sugar swings”) affect brain functioning and eating behaviors in adults with type 1 diabetes. You would likely track your blood sugar and complete computer-based tasks or questionnaires to help researchers understand these links.
MontrealAges 18–65 - NCT05498974Recruiting
Type 1 diabetes study for people with insulin dependence
This study is looking for people with type 1 diabetes to better understand the condition and how it may be managed. You might qualify if you were diagnosed by a specialist and are insulin-dependent under certain conditions.
Lanzhou, GansuAges Any age - NCT05505669Recruiting
Blood test study to track markers in diabetes
This study measures “circulating biomarkers” (blood-based signals) in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, and in some people without diabetes who test positive for certain diabetes antibodies. The goal is to understand what these blood signals can tell us about diabetes development and progression.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05540704Recruiting
Therapy support for eating problems in type 1 diabetes
This study compares three groups: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, standard supportive diabetes counseling, or a waitlist. It aims to reduce binge eating and harmful weight-control behaviors, including insulin withholding, in people with type 1 diabetes.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 16–50 - NCT05546138Recruiting
Study for early diabetic nerve damage in people with diabetes
This trial looks for and studies early nerve problems in the feet or legs that can happen with diabetes, before nerve damage is clearly diagnosed. It may help doctors better predict who is at risk and understand early changes.
AalborgAges 18–60 - NCT05585983RecruitingPhase 4
Flu shot in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes patients
This trial checks whether giving a flu vaccine to people who were just diagnosed with type 1 diabetes affects their health and immune response. It may help doctors understand if flu vaccination is safe and useful soon after diagnosis.
AalborgAges 7–17 - NCT05593081Recruiting
Study of sudden type 1 diabetes after rapid symptom onset
This trial studies people who develop severe, fast-onset “type 1 diabetes” with body-wide stress (ketosis/ketoacidosis) soon after symptoms start. It aims to better understand this condition and how to care for it early.
Quanzhou, FujianAges Any age - NCT05594706Recruiting
Anhydroglucitol test in children with type 1 diabetes
This trial studies how anhydroglucitol behaves in children with type 1 diabetes who use insulin pump therapy and glucose monitoring. Your team will compare measurements over about a year to see if this marker could be useful for tracking diabetes control.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 2–18 - NCT05610865RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell treatment for chronic diabetic foot ulcers
This Phase 1 study tests whether stem cells taken from fat tissue (after a small procedure) can help heal a long-lasting diabetic foot ulcer. It mainly aims to help ulcers that are limited to soft tissue and have good blood flow to the foot.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–60 - NCT05626712RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CELZ-201 to preserve insulin production in early type 1 diabetes
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether CELZ-201 is safe and can help the body keep making some of its own insulin in people who were recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. You may be eligible if your diabetes started within the past year and your tests show you still have some insulin-making activity.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–35 - NCT05641753RecruitingPhase 4
LDL-lowering study for adults with type 1 diabetes
This study looks at cholesterol lowering in adults with type 1 diabetes and whether it reduces “residual risk,” meaning risk that may remain even with current care. You may be asked to take cholesterol-focused treatment and complete blood tests to track LDL (“bad cholesterol”).
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT05653518Recruiting
Artificial pancreas therapy to steady sugars and protect the heart
This study tests an “artificial pancreas” system that automatically helps control insulin to reduce wide swings in blood sugar. It also aims to see whether steadier sugars can improve heart health in adults with type 1 diabetes.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–40 - NCT05678543Recruiting
Diabetes family registry for mothers, partners, and children
This study builds a registry to learn about diabetes in families over time. It includes mothers with diabetes, their partners, and their children, to help researchers understand how diabetes affects families.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT05692388Recruiting
Study social needs support for Black adults with kidney and diabetes
This study looks at health-related social needs—like barriers to food, housing, or care—in African American adults living with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. It uses a mixed-methods approach to understand needs better and what support may help.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05692778Recruiting
Care program for people with diabetes and foot problems
This trial is testing an improved care approach for people with diabetes who have foot complications, delivered through primary care. It may help by organizing care more effectively and supporting better diabetes and foot management.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05701254Recruiting
Study how type 1 diabetes affects fracture risk bones
This study compares bone structure in women with type 1 diabetes versus women without diabetes, to understand why fractures can happen more easily. You may need blood tests, scans, and a small bone biopsy (a surgical sample from your hip/thigh area).
Omaha, NebraskaAges 50 years+ - NCT05702463RecruitingPhase 1
Daily aspirin in adults with type 2 diabetes
This early-stage study tests how a daily aspirin tablet behaves in the body and how it affects blood/clotting markers in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand whether this form of aspirin could be useful, especially if you’re not currently taking aspirin.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05713448Recruiting
Check how common overweight is in adults with type 1 diabetes
This study looks at how many adults with type 1 diabetes have overweight or obesity. It may help improve future care planning for people living with type 1 diabetes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for type 1 diabetes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 872 recruiting type 1 diabetes 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 type 1 diabetes 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 type 1 diabetes 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.
