Testing amylin’s role in nerve pain from type 2 diabetes
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether amylin is involved in nerve damage causing pain or numbness in the feet or hands for people with type 2 diabetes. If you qualify, you may be evaluated with nerve testing to see how your nerve function compares to the study’s targets.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes
- You have nerve symptoms consistent with peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage in arms/legs)
- Your nerve test results (Nerve Conduction Velocity, or NCV) must show mild to severe nerve impairment
- Your NCV test results must be below the study’s “average or better” level
- You must be willing to complete the nerve testing needed for the study

This study looks at how the central nervous system reacts in people with type 2 diabetes who have or don't have pain from nerve damage. It aims to better understand nerve sensitivity to help improve treatment.
This study uses ultrasound (an imaging test) to measure the nerves in the legs of people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage. It helps doctors learn more about how diabetes affects nerves.
This study looks at how diabetes affects nerves, including those that control automatic functions like sweating and heart rate. Researchers will use ultrasound and electrical tests to check for nerve damage in people with diabetes, and compare results to healthy volunteers.
This study uses ultrasound to examine nerves in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage in their legs or feet. Researchers will compare ultrasound findings with blood tests to understand why some people develop this complication and how to better detect it early.
This study analyzes blood samples from people with diabetes to understand what causes nerve pain and damage in the legs and feet. Researchers will compare blood from three groups: people with diabetic nerve pain, people with diabetes but no nerve problems, and healthy volunteers without diabetes.
This study compares two types of exercise to see if they can help improve nerve health in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage in their feet or legs. You may join if you have had diabetes for at least 5 years, have moderate blood sugar control, and do not currently exercise regularly.
