Type 2 diabetes clinical trials — recruiting now

The aim of the study is to evaluate whether the Oral Fat Loading Test (OFLT) determines a different response in terms of the quantity, quality, and kinetics of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in subjects with T2D, prediabetics, and control subjects, and whether triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and inflammatory cytokines after OFLT are potential early biomarkers of the risk of progression to diabetes and the development of complications in a general practice setting. To address these questions, a hybrid cohort study was designed by identifying three groups of subjects: T2D and prediabetics (exposed and near-exposed) and control subjects (unexposed).

The overall aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of a 12-month, two-arm lifestyle intervention to induce and maintain remission of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The findings from the feasibility study will inform the recruitment, design and delivery of the interventions in a 5-arm, 24-month randomised controlled trial.

The aim of this study is to assess the impact of a newly intensified digital platform following bariatric surgery. This will be measured using several questionnaires. The following objectives will be evaluated: the exact amount of weight loss achieved preoperatively with the preparatory diet; the occurrence of dumping symptoms; the assessment of quality of life (QOL); and compliance with supplement intake. By examining the impact of an enhanced digital platform, we aim to address critical questions regarding the effectiveness of improved patient support in the digital domain. Moreover, given the increasing prevalence of bariatric surgery as a therapeutic option for obesity, it is of utmost importance to identify strategies to optimize patient education and support through digital tools. This study not only contributes to the scientific understanding of digital support in bariatric care but also has important implications for the further development of the "Get Ready" application, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of providing comprehensive and patient-centered support in the evolving landscape of bariatric surgery.

A 13-week multi-center single-arm trial, preceded by a 2-week standard therapy phase, will be conducted to assess the safety of MODI, an insulin titration algorithm, in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who use multiple daily insulin injections (MDI), or with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who use MDI, basal insulin only, or who are candidates to initiate basal insulin, in conjunction with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the progressive damage to kidney function, associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke or myocardial infarct, particularly in the most severe stages of CKD, in which the patient requires dialysis. Several risk factors are reported for CKD, such as diabetes mellitus, obesity and hypertension. One of the most increasingly recognized risk factors is the fat tissue malfunction, known as adiposopathy. The accumulation of fat tissue around the organs in conditions of obesity or diabetes accelerates the production of pro-inflammatory factors that may worsen the kidney and heart damage. New antidiabetic medications, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), have proven beneficial effects on the kidney and heart due to several mechanisms, including anti-inflammatory actions and a potential action on the fat tissue. The aim of this study is to assess the link between adiposopathy and CKD, by investigating the changes in adiposopathy measures throughout treatment with GLP-1RA to a sample of patients with CKD.

This study aims to test whether a communication strategy called "linguistic nudging" can help doctors and patients with type 2 diabetes make better treatment decisions together, and whether this improves patients' ability to manage their condition. What will happen in the study? - 250 adults with type 2 diabetes from Xiang'an Hospital (Xiamen) will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Intervention group:Doctors will receive special training in "linguistic nudging" techniques to encourage shared decision-making. Patients will use a mobile app to record medication preferences, and doctors will adjust advice based on these preferences. Control group:Patients will receive standard diabetes care without these additional strategies. \- All participants will be followed for 6 months. What is the study aiming to find out? The main goal is to see if patients in the intervention group: Better follow medication plans Improve blood sugar monitoring Have better blood sugar control Feel more satisfied with doctor-patient communication Why is this important? Good self-management is key to controlling diabetes, but many patients struggle with it. Effective communication during shared decision-making may empower patients to manage their condition day-to-day with greater confidence. Patient safety and rights: Participation is completely voluntary All personal information will be kept strictly confidential Medical support will be provided if any health problems occur during the study Participants may withdraw at any time This research has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Xiang'an Hospital (Approval date: October 2025).

ASCEND PLUS is testing whether, for people with type 2 diabetes who have not previously had a heart attack or stroke, regularly taking a tablet called semaglutide can safely help to reduce heart attacks, strokes, mini-strokes, the need for any procedures to unblock or bypass an artery to their heart, and the chance of dying because of vascular problems.

This study seeks to address the multifaceted challenges posed by food disparities and their negative consequences on health outcomes, via a comprehensive community health intervention program. Study objectives include: 1. To describe the social-demographic and clinical factors associated with food insecurity in the hospitalized diabetic population. 2. To design, implement and evaluate a nutrition program targeting the hospitalized diabetic population. The investigators will prospectively randomize the target population into either a nutrition program (Intervention), or state-of-art standard of care (SOC) in a 4:1 ratio. Participants in the intervention group will be provided the following two resources in addition to SOC: 1) Enhanced access to nutritious food (twice daily meal delivery up to 90 days post-discharge) 2) Education at discharge and continuing outreach to enhance knowledge for better diet and food options. 3. To enhance community engagement and develop a systematic implementation plan for long-term roll-out of the nutrition program.

Diabetic neuropathy is a serious and common complication of diabetes that currently has no cure. One form of this condition is cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN), which affects about 20% of people with diabetes-an estimated 100 million people worldwide. CAN is a significant risk factor for death and health problems like heart disease and kidney damage, and may contribute to the high rates of cardiovascular-related deaths in people with diabetes. This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, two-center trial. The study aims to test whether finerenone can treat cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. The trial will evaluate the effects of 78 weeks of treatment with finerenone or a placebo, assigned randomly in a 1:1 ratio, on early-stage cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy. The trial will include 100 participants with type 2 diabetes. Additionally, the study will investigate how the treatment impacts other types of neuropathy and related pathological mechanisms.

The aim of the trial is to evaluate the effects of the SGLT2 inhibitor, dapagliflozin, compared to metformin on annual decline in eGFR when used as first line therapy in people with Type 2 Diabetes.

Being active is one way to reach better blood sugar control and heart health in type 2 diabetes. The investigators developed a strategy to help people with type 2 diabetes walk more. They track their steps with a step counter and set targets with their doctor through a kind of 'step prescription.' While this strategy helps people increase their physical activity, it can be useful to have support besides the clinic visits. Their partner might be a good person to help. Partners often have similar activity levels. Partners of people with type 2 diabetes are also more likely to develop type 2 diabetes. There are good reasons to work together! However, not all partners communicate in a way that helps them work together effectively. The investigators are going to give a step counter and step prescriptions to a large group of people with type 2 diabetes. The partners will also receive counters and step prescriptions. Half of the couples will be randomized (assigned to a group based on something equivalent to a coin toss) to participate in online or in-person sessions with a counselor. They will work together to figure out how to communicate more kindly and effectively. The investigators will see if the people with these sessions wind up having higher steps and better sugar control than the people who do not. To figure out in which types of couples the strategy works, The investigators will also divide the couples into groups based on the type of marriage that they have (figured out through a questionnaire) and body size. The investigators will see if the counseling strategy helps in both 'high' and 'low' quality relationships and if couples where both partners have extra weight respond differently to the strategy than other couples. During the trial, if The investigators see that the strategy is not working well in one particular group of people, The investigators may recruit fewer in this group and more in the others. The investigators will do this in consultation with specialized statisticians who will look at the data at specific points in time. This is a way of making sure that the investigators are testing the right strategy in the right group, increasing the 'efficiency' and relevance of the study.

Diabetes type II is a metabolic syndrome involving high sugar levels known as hyperglycemia. It can impair pulmonary function through reduced lung elasticity and gas exchange and weaken core muscles due to inflammation and muscle atrophy. Literature has shown the individual effects of these exercises on quality of life. However, no study has yet evaluated the combined effects of these exercises on different variables such as lung function, functional capacity, and blood sugar levels. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to compare the effects of diaphragmatic breathing and Pilates breathing, combined with core strengthening exercises, on lung function, functional capacity, blood sugar levels, and quality of life. The study aims to determine which breathing technique provides greater physiological and functional benefits. METHOD: The study will be a Randomized control trial consisting of two groups subjects meeting the inclusion criteria will be selected for the study. The subjects will then be randomly assigned to two groups. One group will receive Diaphragmatic breathing with core strengthening exercises and other group will receive Pilate breathing with core strengthening exercises. Before initiating the treatment procedure following would be assessed for all the patients: Pulmonary Function, Functional Capacity, Blood sugar levels and quality of life. Afterwards a treatment regime distributed over the course of six weeks will be given to all patients. After the interventions Pulmonary function, Functional capacity, Blood sugar levels and Quality of life would be reassessed. Data would be analyzed to evaluate the outcomes. DATA COLLECTION PROCEDURE: The participants eligible for the study according to inclusion and exclusion criteria would be recruited for the study voluntarily and referred from Medical OPD of Fauji Foundation Hospital and Rehab OPD of Fauji Foundation Hospital. The purpose of this study along with the treatment plan would be explained to the participants in the language they understand their best and informed consent will be taken from the participants. A treatment regimen consisting of 18 weeks distributed over the course of six weeks will be provided to the patients in multidisciplinary lab of foundation University College of physical therapy

Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory disease that exacerbates systemic inflammation and poses challenges for glycemic control in diabetic patients. While scaling and root planing (SRP) remains the cornerstone of periodontal therapy, adjunctive treatments such as Arestin (minocycline microspheres) have shown promise in enhancing clinical outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the impact of adding Arestin to SRP on periodontal pocket closure, glycemic control, and systemic inflammation in diabetic patients with periodontitis.
