Sweeteners and heart health in type 1 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how a sweet drink with no sugar affects heart health and blood sugar in young people with type 1 diabetes. You will drink a zero-calorie Gatorade and have a few tests to check your blood vessels and metabolism.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 15 and 24 years old.
- You have type 1 diabetes and have been on insulin for at least 1 year but less than 10 years.
- Your most recent A1c (a measure of blood sugar control) is 8.5% or lower.
- You use an automated insulin delivery system (like a pump that adjusts insulin on its own).
- You are willing to drink a 12-ounce zero-calorie Gatorade in under 10 minutes.

This study tests if adding a non-insulin medication can lower the amount of insulin needed while improving heart and metabolic health in people with type 1 diabetes. It may also help understand how this approach works in people with a genetic form of diabetes (GCK-MODY).
This study is looking at how keeping your blood sugar in a healthy range (called 'time in range') affects the health of your blood vessels and heart in people with type 1 diabetes. It uses a special automated insulin delivery system to help you stay in range.
This study is looking for adults with type 1 diabetes to help improve guidelines for preventing and treating low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). The goal is to make recommendations that are more practical and safer for people like you.
This study uses a wearable sensor (like a smartwatch) to track your body's signals when blood sugar drops low. The goal is to understand low blood sugar patterns better, which may help improve prevention and treatment.
This study tests whether using an automated insulin delivery system (a smart pump that adjusts insulin based on sensor readings) can help improve blood sugar control and bone health in adults with Type 1 diabetes who have high and unstable blood sugars.
This study tests whether artificial sweeteners affect blood sugar levels in people with type 1 diabetes. If you use an insulin pump and have well-controlled diabetes, you may be able to join.
