Blood sugar and hormone changes in chronic pancreatitis with diabetes
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood sugar and certain hormones change in people who have both chronic pancreatitis and diabetes. It aims to understand these patterns better, which might help design future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 analyzes immune system markers in blood samples to help predict which people with chronic pancreatitis (long-term pancreas inflammation) might develop pancreatic cancer. Researchers will compare blood patterns in healthy people, those with chronic pancreatitis, and those recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
This study uses a special blood-sugar test (a mixed meal) to better diagnose and understand diabetes related to pancreatic cancer or chronic pancreatitis, and to compare it with other diabetes types. It may help researchers find clearer ways to tell these diabetes causes apart and understand how they work.
This study collects health information and samples over time from people with chronic pancreatitis to learn more about the disease and improve care. It may include endoscopic procedures, which use a thin tube to look at the pancreas.
This trial tests if metformin is safe and effective for people who developed diabetes after being diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis. You must not have taken any diabetes medication before.
This study looks at blood “markers” to find early signs or higher risk for pancreatic cancer. You may join if you have certain risk factors (like new diabetes, pancreatic cysts/pancreatitis, or a strong family history) and can come to Omaha for blood draws twice a year.
