Pancreas and diabetes study for adults at risk or newly diagnosed
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how the pancreas affects blood sugar and diabetes. It may help find better ways to prevent or treat type 2 diabetes.

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.
This study examines how the pancreas works in people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Researchers will assess pancreatic function to better understand early diabetes and potentially improve treatment.
This study follows patients who are having part or all of their pancreas removed due to disease. Researchers want to understand how this surgery affects blood sugar control, weight, and overall health in people without diabetes before surgery.
This study looks at how different types of pancreatic surgery (removing part or all of the pancreas) affect blood sugar control in people who already have diabetes. It aims to understand how these operations change the body's metabolism and overall health, which may help improve care for patients.
This study looks at how blood sugar levels and certain hormones change in people with diabetes caused by chronic pancreatitis. It may help doctors better understand and manage this condition, so the findings could improve care for others like you.
This study looks at how blood sugar levels and gut bacteria relate to pancreatic problems, including cysts, inflammation, and cancer. By joining, you help researchers understand these connections better, which could lead to new ways to treat or manage these conditions.
