Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this pilot study is to hopefully generate interest that will lead to more robust trials evaluating FreeStyle Libre 2 sensors in patients with type 2 diabetes on any diabetes regimen. Hopefully the trial will ultimately pave the way to future trials that will prompt clinicians, policymakers, and insurers to re-evaluate the current criteria defining the coverage of continuous glucose monitors (CGM). The objectives of the study are to 1) Determine if there is difference in diabetes control in adult participants with type 2 diabetes before and after management with FreeStyle Libre 2, 2) Compare participant satisfaction with glucose monitoring and diabetes distress in adult participants with type 2 diabetes before and after management with FreeStyle Libre 2 and 3) Compare the frequency of hypoglycemia in adult participants with type 2 diabetes before and after management with FreeStyle Libre 2.

Randomized, controlled, pragmatic trial with open-label extension evaluating BT-001, an investigational digital therapeutic intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes improve their glycemic control.

This study will evaluate whether the 12-week health coaching mobile application (LIVEN) will succeed in enhancing lifestyle behaviors in adults with Type 2 Diabetes compared to typical treatment. The mobile application's viability will be assessed in 2 parts; the first part is testing easiness and friendliness of using Liven by the patient and health coach. The second part is evaluating the suitability of Liven education material for the patients and whether the coaching program results in enhancing lifestyle behaviors and blood sugar levels. the investigators hypothesize that the 12-week online lifestyle-coaching program will be viable, and a full-scale study can proceed.

The goal of this feasibility study is to use family units as support to promote nutrition and physical activity of individuals with type 2 diabetes. The main question it aims to answer is: • How does the family structure impact the health of its members living with type 2 diabetes? Participants will be asked to; Tell us about their access to food sources and places in the community to engage in physical activity. A nutrition and physical activity plan will be developed for participants and their families to use for 6 months.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare those using a diabetes management smartphone application (mySugr) to those not using the application. This smartphone application is for Spanish-literate adults with poorly controlled, non-intensively treated type 2 diabetes. The main question[s] that it aims to answer are: What is the impact of the use of mySugr (a smartphone-based application or app) with structured blood glucose monitoring on diabetes self-management among Hispanic/Latino adults with poorly controlled, non-intensively treated T2D? Will diabetes self-management be more effective for those using mySugr (the Active group) compared to those not using mySugr (the Control group) over a 12-week study period? Participants will be screened and enrolled if they are eligible; they will have the study explained to them in Spanish or English and have time to ask questions and then sign an informed consent form. Clinical measurements (including height, weight, and blood pressure) and hemoglobin A1c will be done. All subjects will be given a blood glucose meter, lancing device, and blood glucose strips for the meter, and they will also receive an electronic scale. Several questionnaires will be answered. If a subject is randomly assigned to the Active group, they will download the mySugr Pro app in Spanish to their smartphone and be trained in its use. They will receive education focused on paired (before and 2 hours after a meal) blood glucose testing, which participants will conduct twice a day for 6 days and once a month for 3 months. Participants will continue structured blood glucose testing with the mySugr PRO app for 12 weeks, and they will have 3 virtual visits in Spanish with mySugr PRO coaches who will review the blood glucose records and advise the subjects. Subjects in the Control group will not receive the mySugr PRO app or coaching. They will continue with their usual diabetes management. All subjects will return after 12 weeks to return the scale and have a close-out visit with clinical measurements and questionnaires. Subjects will also receive a disturbance allowance for their time and participation.

This study will test the preliminary efficacy of a nurse case-manager, telephone-delivered intervention that provides diabetes self-management education and skills training and resolves the unmet social needs of older African Americans with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes by randomizing 100 African Americans aged 50 years and older with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes to the Combined Diabetes Education/Skills Training and Social Needs Resolution (DM Social Needs) Intervention (n=50) and usual care (n=50) arms. The aims of this study are: Aim 1: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM Social Needs intervention on clinical outcomes in older AAs with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. Aim 2: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM Social Needs intervention on patient reported outcomes in older AAs with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.

Latino(a)s suffer from poor social determinants of health (SODH) conditions more than non-minority populations, and being a minority is risk factor alone for diabetes. In the proposed study, investigators will assist church members in becoming Community Health Workers (CHWs), train them in diabetes, and use an online platform (Salesforce) to track the ability to address healthcare access and quality barriers.

There are multiple CGMs that are FDA approved. However, there are few studies looking at the variability of measurements between the left and right arm, and none looking at this effect in diabetic patients. This study may identify if glucose differences exist in the left and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Furthermore, it may point to future directions for research to standardize methods of glucose measurement such as consistently measuring on only one side of the body.

A Randomized Control Trial (RCT) with 1:1 randomization of adults newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D) to Routine Care (RC) and RC + Glycemic Excursion Minimization (RC+GEM); a program that provides RC in addition to continuous glucose monitors (CGM) within a structured, self-directed, and personalized lifestyle program called GEM. Our hypothesis is that RC+GEM will: 1) reduce hemoglobin A1c as much or more, 2) require less diabetes medication, 3) cost less, and 4) have more secondary benefits, (e.g. greater reduction in cardiovascular risk, weight, diabetes distress, depression symptoms), compared to RC alone.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D), once considered only "a disease of older ages," is now a significant public health concern in youth. Although it is characterized by insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion, its precise etiology and pathogenesis are not yet fully understood. This study aims to (1) explore arginine metabolism in youth with T2D via safe, minimally invasive kinetic experiments using stable isotope tracers and targeted metabolomics, and (2) determine the effect of exogenous arginine administration on β-cell function in youth with T2D, potentially supporting the use of this safe, low-cost, and readily available nutrient to improve pediatric diabetes outcomes.
