Continuous glucose monitor use in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks blood sugar all day) in people with type 2 diabetes who are not taking insulin. It aims to see if using the monitor helps improve blood sugar control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Have type 2 diabetes and be enrolled in the VDOP program (a weight management program)
- Not be taking insulin and not be scheduled to start insulin
- Your most recent A1C (a blood sugar average test) must be between 8.0 and 12.0% (checked within the past 3 months)
- Be willing and able to wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor
- Your diabetes medications must have been the same for the past 3 months
- Not be pregnant, planning pregnancy, or have gestational diabetes
- Not have severe kidney disease requiring dialysis
- Not have a known allergy to the CGM sensor (Dexcom)

This study will look at how well Dexcom continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) work in real life. It helps people with diabetes track their blood sugar levels and may lead to better control of their condition.
This study gives continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to people with type 2 diabetes who cannot afford them. It looks at whether using a CGM helps improve blood sugar control.
This study tests whether using a small sensor (continuous glucose monitor) to check your blood sugar while you're in the hospital can improve diabetes management. You'll wear the sensor for a few days and may not need as many finger-prick tests.
This study compares two ways of tracking blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes who use insulin. It aims to see if one method helps manage glucose better, which could improve daily control and long-term health.
This study checks how well periodic continuous glucose monitoring works for adults with type 2 diabetes. You may be asked to wear a sensor that tracks glucose more often than finger-stick checks, which can help improve day-to-day glucose control.
This study checks whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM, a sensor that tracks blood sugar) is practical and helpful for people with type 2 diabetes in primary care settings. It focuses on people who may have a harder time getting diabetes support and have higher A1c levels.
