Observing eye disease progression in type 2 diabetes
This study closely follows people with type 2 diabetes who have early signs of diabetic retinopathy (damage to the retina from diabetes) to see how the condition changes over time. It does not test a new treatment but monitors the eye's health closely. It may be a good fit if you have diabetic retinopathy that does not need immediate treatment.

Widespread pain after rapid weight loss in Black and Hispanic adults
This study looks at whether rapid weight loss from bariatric surgery leads to long-term widespread pain in Black and Hispanic adults. The goal is to understand how weight loss affects pain and find better ways to help people manage it.
New York, New YorkAges 18–75 - NCT06796920Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for leg problems in adrenomyeloneuropathy
This trial tests a small device placed near your spinal cord (called epidural spinal cord stimulation) to see if it can help improve leg movement and stiffness in people with adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN). If you have AMN and trouble walking due to leg stiffness, this study may explore a new option for you.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 22–50 - NCT05401578RecruitingPhase 3
Canakinumab for low blood sugar after stomach weight-loss surgery
This trial tests whether canakinumab can reduce frequent low blood sugar episodes after bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. It is designed for people who keep having low blood sugar despite dietary changes.
BaselAges 18–75 - NCT05564273Recruiting
Viome nutrition program for people with metabolic health issues
This trial tests whether a personalized Viome nutrition program can improve metabolic health (such as higher fasting insulin or glucose). You would use their app and follow the program, while researchers monitor health outcomes over time.
Bothell, WashingtonAges 25–75 - NCT05841420RecruitingPhase 2
Lower-intensity chemo for fragile pancreatic cancer patients
This Phase 2 trial compares a standard gemcitabine approach versus a reduced-dose combination chemotherapy for people with pancreatic cancer that can’t be removed by surgery. It aims to find a treatment that works while being safer for “fragile” patients who can’t tolerate full-dose chemotherapy.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06185192Recruiting
Personalized nutrition to lower blood sugar
This trial tests whether Viome's personalized nutrition program helps lower blood sugar (A1c) in people with type 2 diabetes. You will get a diet plan tailored to you and use an app to track your progress.
