Kid-focused study to track kidney issues in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study follows young people with type 2 diabetes to better understand risks for kidney problems over time. It may help researchers find earlier warning signs and improve care for adolescents living with type 2 diabetes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (not type 1).
- Your diagnosis is confirmed by blood sugar tests and/or A1c results.
- Your type 2 diabetes diagnosis is supported by risk clues like family history, overweight/insulin resistance signs, and lack of type 1 diabetes antibodies.
- You do not have diabetes caused by medicines or surgery.
- You have never had cancer, and you do not have other inflammatory chronic illnesses (like Crohn’s or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis).
- You and your caregiver can and will sign consent/assent and participate willingly.

This study looks at how type 2 diabetes starting in youth affects the heart over time. It also includes teens and young adults who are overweight or lean, and their biological parents, to compare heart health across these groups.
This study looks at using a finger-prick test instead of a standard blood draw for the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which measures how your body handles sugar. It may help young people at risk for or with early type 1 diabetes avoid repeated needle sticks.
This study looks at how different foods affect kidney health in people with type 2 diabetes and early kidney disease. Researchers will compare dietary patterns across different ethnic groups to understand what helps protect kidneys.
This trial focuses on improving how kidney damage is diagnosed and how treatment is planned for people with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease. It may help by using detailed medical history and (if done) kidney biopsy results to guide care more accurately.
This is a screening study to identify and understand people with type 2 diabetes whose blood sugar isn't well controlled, so they can potentially join future diabetes research trials. You won't receive a new treatment in this study—it's about getting to know your health history and seeing if you might be a good fit for upcoming studies.
This study tests if an artificial intelligence tool can predict how type 2 diabetes changes over time in youth. It involves wearing a continuous glucose monitor for 6 weeks and may help doctors personalize care.
