Gene changes and diabetes risk study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain gene changes affect blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes and also in people who have had pancreas surgery. It compares these groups with healthy volunteers to see how genes influence the risk of diabetes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can be in one of three groups: newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (no meds yet), healthy volunteer, or someone who has had part of their pancreas removed.
- If you have diabetes, you must be between 25–70, have an HbA1c of 7–12%, and a BMI of 20–35.
- If you're a healthy volunteer, you must be 25–60, have a BMI of 19–26, and be in overall good health.
- If you've had pancreatic surgery, you must be 20–80 and have a confirmed pancreatic condition.
- You cannot be taking any diabetes medication or drugs that affect your pancreas.
- You must not have had prior pancreatic surgery (applies to diabetes and healthy groups) or severe organ disease.

This trial looks at how certain cells in the pancreas work in people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. It may help doctors understand the disease better and find new treatment approaches.
This study explores how the pancreas and diabetes are connected by examining people with different pancreatic conditions. It aims to find new ways to treat or prevent diabetes.
This study follows patients with diabetes who are having surgery to remove part or all of their pancreas (usually for cancer or benign disease). Researchers will track how the surgery affects blood sugar control, weight, and overall health over time.
This study looks at genetic factors in people recently diagnosed with diabetes to understand what might predict who needs insulin treatment. Researchers will analyze blood samples and medical information to see if genetic testing could help doctors predict your treatment path.
This study is designed to help identify and monitor people at high risk for type 1 diabetes. It involves education and regular check-ups to better understand and manage the condition.
This trial studies how pancreatic cancer affects blood sugar and the risk of developing diabetes after surgery. Patients who have their pancreas removed will provide blood and tissue samples to help understand this link.
