Quitting smoking and blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at whether stopping smoking helps improve blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes who have a moderate smoking history. If you are at least 35, have type 2 diabetes, and your HbA1c (a measure of average blood sugar) is above 7%, you may be eligible.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes
- You have a moderate smoking history (based on a smoking index)

This trial tests whether group education/support can help people stop smoking and better control high blood pressure. If you’re 65–84, recently dealing with high blood pressure, and smoke, group sessions may help you quit and manage your readings.
This trial tests smoking-cessation interventions to help people living with HIV quit smoking or smoke less. You may be eligible if you smoke, are actively engaged in HIV treatment, and can follow the study for about a year.
This study tests if a medication used for type 2 diabetes (GLP-1 receptor agonists) can also reduce smoking in men with diabetes who smoke. If you qualify, you may receive this drug or a standard diabetes pill to see if it helps you smoke less.
This study tests if a coaching program focused on diet, activity, and blood sugar tracking can help people with early type 2 diabetes put their diabetes into remission. You'll receive guidance and tools to manage your health and potentially reduce or stop diabetes medications.
This study tests if the diabetes drug semaglutide can help people with type 2 diabetes stop smoking more easily. Participants will get either semaglutide or a placebo to see if it improves quit rates.
This study tests whether specific dietary strategies can help people with type 2 diabetes reach remission (better blood sugar without ongoing high medication needs). You may be a good candidate if your diabetes is relatively recent, your weight is above a certain threshold, and your heart and other health conditions are stable.
