7-Ketolithocholic Acid for Prediabetes Treatment
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a compound called 7-ketolithocholic acid can help people with prediabetes (blood sugar levels higher than normal but not yet diabetic) prevent or delay developing type 2 diabetes. Participants will take the study medication while following a healthy diet and exercise plan.
