Diabetes Paid Clinical Trials in California

Pregnant women aged 18-40 with gestational diabetes (GDM) will take part in this study. We want to see how two different insulin treatments affect their blood sugar after they eat. These women usually use a rapid-acting insulin analog (RAA) that's injected to control their blood sugar before and after meals. They will come to the clinic for two meal sessions. For the first meal, we will randomly decide if they will use the usual RAA insulin or a newer inhaled insulin called technosphere insulin (TI). They will use the other type of insulin for their second meal. After each meal, we will compare their blood sugar levels. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that maridebart cafraglutide is superior to placebo for percent change in body weight. Read Less

The proposed research, "Dulce Digital 2.0," will evaluate two mHealth adaptions of Project Dulce that are designed to improve digital health literacy, increase underserved individuals' capacity to access and engage with vital digital health information, and in turn, improve clinical and behavioral outcomes in at-risk adults with diabetes. Expanding access to care in populations faced with challenges of low socioeconomic status and health literacy is a step toward reducing health disparities and positively affecting care. The literature shows that identifying which groups of participants are most likely to benefit from telehealth interventions is an important factor in improving the evidence base for digital health literacy. Dulce Digital 2.0 is highly scalable once the technical infrastructure is built. More importantly, by helping to reduce existing inequities in access to diabetes care and accurate digital health information the model could help to improve health outcomes on a larger scale. The use of digital technology in the delivery of healthcare interventions is increasingly common. Barriers to engagement in digital technology exist among those in underserved populations due to language, access to equipment and internet, education level, exposure to and comfort with technology, and pre-existing deficits in health literacy. The proposed research will investigate the effectiveness of two digital approaches to improving the self-management and digital health skills of underserved participants with diabetes compared to tradition in-person self-management education: 1) live self-management education, traditional in-person classes; 2) live self-management education using a telehealth distance learning platform; and 3) a series of text-based messages, not requiring a smart phone or internet connection, that encourage healthy self-management behaviors.

TRANSFORM is a prospective, randomized, open blinded endpoint (PROBE), event-driven, pragmatic trial in patients who are at increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) disease but with no known symptomatic CV disease. The trial tests the hypothesis that a Cleerly Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Staging System-based care strategy reduces CV events compared with risk factor-based care. Read Less

The current research study will add continuous glucose monitoring devices to the evidence-based text messaging diabetes education program for patients with type 2 diabetes for 6 months. Results on the effectiveness of this intervention will be compared for non-insulin using patients. Read Less

This study aims to determine if adding using a mobile diabetes-related health application with CGM device yields significant benefits, contributing to our understanding of the potential advantages and informing future diabetes care practices. The rationale for testing CGM with Undermyfork in individuals with T2D stems from the potential benefits of real-time glucose monitoring and personalized dietary tracking in improving glycemic control and reducing diabetes-related complications. Unlike standard care, which often involves periodic fingerstick glucose testing and limited dietary guidance, the proposed intervention offers continuous monitoring and tailored dietary insights, thus potentially improving overall diabetes management outcomes. The proposed intervention, therefore, deviates from standard care by integrating mobile health apps into the routine for CGM use, offering a novel avenue for enhanced glycemic monitoring and management.

Skeletal muscle metabolic health is critical for mobility and an underrecognized target of metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease. Impaired muscle mitochondrial metabolism underlies poor physical endurance increasing the risk of mobility disability. The proposed project will use precise in vivo tools to study the pathophysiology of poor physical endurance in a clinical trial treating metabolic acidosis among persons living with chronic kidney disease.

The goal of the DISCOVERY study is to provide innovative critical information regarding the unique natural history of glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, and β-cell function, and their mechanistic determinates, in obese adolescents at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the MiniMed 780G insulin pump used in combination with the DS5 CGM in type 1 pediatric subjects (2-6 years of age) in a home setting. Read Less

The goal of this observational study is to better understand what happens when pregnant people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) use automated insulin delivery (AID) systems. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * What are the maternal and neonatal outcomes with AID system use in pregnancy? * What are the glycemic outcomes with AID system use in pregnancy? * What are the behavioral and emotional outcomes with AID system use in pregnancy? Researchers will compare pregnant people who use commercial AID systems and pregnant people who use open source AID systems to see if outcomes are different with these different types of systems. Participants will be asked to remotely share their AID system data with the research team; complete online surveys regarding behavioral and emotional health; and sign an authorization to release health information to allow the research team to access medical records.

This is a non-inferiority patient-centered and pragmatic comparative-effectiveness pregnancy randomized controlled trial (RCT) with postpartum maternal and child follow-up through 2 years of 1,572 individuals with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) randomized to oral metformin versus injectable insulin. This study will determine if metformin is not inferior to insulin in reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes, is comparably safe for exposed individuals and children, and if patient-reported factors, including facilitators of and barriers to use, differ between metformin and insulin. A total of 1,572 pregnant individuals with GDM who need pharmacotherapy will be recruited at 20 U.S. sites using consistent treatment criteria to metformin versus insulin. Participants and their children will be followed through delivery to two years postpartum. Read Less

This study will examine the effects THC has on Glucose Metabolism and Endothelial Functioning in participants with Type 2 Diabetes. The participants will complete blood tests and tests to measure energy expenditure, CVD risks, and glucose metabolism. These tests will be performed prior to start of treatment and again after 2-weeks of treatment with the THC or placebo. Read Less
