Metformin response based on genetic variation in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how your genes might affect the way your body responds to metformin, a common diabetes medication. It aims to see if a specific genetic variation influences treatment outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have type 2 diabetes
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You are not taking insulin or more than two diabetes medications
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You do not have HIV, cancer, or a rheumatic disease

This trial compares two diabetes medicines, metformin and berberine, in people with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The study looks at how well each medicine works based on a person's specific gene type (TCF7L2). Participants will have their gene tested to see if they carry the TT or CC version of this gene.
This study looks at how your genes affect your body's response to a diabetes medication called semaglutide. It may help people with slightly high blood sugar (pre-diabetes) understand why some respond better than others.
This study looks at how your genes affect your response to a diabetes medication called orforglipron. You will stop your usual diabetes pills for 5 days, then take the study drug and have a meal test to see how your blood sugar and body respond.
This study looks at how genetic risk relates to developing type 2 diabetes, using information from a biobank and body measurements like weight. It may help researchers better identify who is at higher risk before diabetes starts.
This study looks at how certain genes affect the risk of type 2 diabetes and how well the drug exenatide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) works in Chinese patients. It aims to see if your genetic makeup can predict how you will respond to treatment.
This study is looking at whether a specific gene type (rs7903146) affects how the pancreas produces a hormone called GLP-1, which helps control blood sugar. It may help explain why some people are more likely to develop diabetes.
