How PDE3B affects metabolism in healthy adults
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how a protein called PDE3B affects your body's metabolism (how it uses energy). It may help researchers understand weight and insulin resistance better, which could lead to new treatments.

This study looks at how different lifestyle factors and metabolism affect health in overweight adults. It may help researchers understand how to better tailor nutrition and lifestyle advice.
This study looks at how genetic markers (DNA) relate to heart health and “metabolic” health (how your body manages sugar and fat). You may be asked to provide genetic samples and follow study health checks and protocols to help researchers understand who is at higher risk.
This study uses a special full-body PET scan to see how two natural hormones, GIP and GLP-1, affect how your body uses sugar and moves blood. It includes healthy volunteers and people with type 2 diabetes who are on metformin only.
This study looks at differences in body fat to understand why some people develop type 2 diabetes. You may be asked for blood tests and health information to see if your diabetes risk and body fat patterns are linked.
This study tests a medicine called XBD173 to see how it affects blood sugar by targeting a protein inside cells' mitochondria. It may help people without diabetes learn about new ways to regulate blood sugar.
This study tests whether a personalized nutrition plan based on your unique metabolism can help prevent chronic metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes. You will follow a tailored diet and have your health monitored over time.
