Diabetes Paid Clinical Trials in Michigan

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a drug known as DFMO in people with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does it reduce stress on the cells that make insulin? * Does it preserve what is left of the body's insulin production? Participants will take either DFMO or a placebo (looks like DFMO but has no active ingredients) two times a day for about 6 months. Participants will have 6 in person visits and 1 phone visit over a period of 12 months. Visits will include blood draws urine collection and other tests. Read Less

The Michigan Men's Diabetes Project III: Mind \& Motion is an 7-month pilot randomized clinical trial. The investigators are looking to recruit 80 Black men with type 2 diabetes (T2D) (need to have diagnosis for at least one year) that are over the age of 18. Participants also must be under the care of a physician for their diabetes, self report an Hemoglobin A1c (A1C) of 7.0% or more in the last year, be willing to participate in study events (weekly physical activity, exercise and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) sessions, group discussion sessions, and in-person health assessments), have reliable internet access (steady internet connection or unlimited data) that will allow them to use a tablet/phone/computer to complete study related tasks, live in the Wayne or Washtenaw County, and have reliable transportation to in-person events. All participants will receive 8 hours/sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy. Participants randomized to the intervention arm will also receive 8 sessions of guided exercise at the same time. Following that they will also receive 8 group discussion sessions that will serve as on-going support. All sessions will be help via Zoom. Additionally, all participants will participate in The 4 health assessments will take place at baseline, 10 weeks, 18 weeks, and 30 weeks. Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well lower dose radiotherapy after chemotherapy (Carboplatin \& Etoposide) works in treating children with central nervous system (CNS) germinomas. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Researchers want to see if lowering the dose of standard radiotherapy (RT) after chemotherapy can help get rid of CNS germinomas with fewer long-term side effects. Read Less

The device being studied, the Transcutaneous Electrical Accustimulator (TEA), will deliver weak electrical current at two specific points, one at the leg and the other at the arm at settings known to improve symptoms involving the digestive system. The study team would like to test if the device will impact the gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and gastric motility in study participants with gastroparesis. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial pilot study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a combined intervention strategy of 1) technology-supported financial navigation to address economic burden of disease and 2) peer support both to facilitate linkages to clinical care and community resources to address social risks and improve participants\' diabetes self-management. The main aims of this pilot study are: * To examine the feasibility and acceptability of technology-supported financial navigation and financial navigation with peer support * To examine trends in preliminary efficacy of technology-supported financial navigation and peer support versus financial navigation-alone on 1) A1c and blood pressure (primary outcomes), and 2) out-of-pocket costs, treatment-related financial stress, cost-related non-adherence behaviors, diabetes distress, diabetes self-care behaviors, and uptake of social care assistance (secondary outcomes). The investigators will assess whether a combined intervention of technology-supported financial navigation and peer support will produce trends in superior diabetes and social care outcomes to financial navigation alone via a 2-arm randomized controlled trial. Participants will * Complete 3 survey appointments at baseline, and 3 and 6 months. Each appointment will consist of a survey assessment, an HbA1C test, and two blood pressure readings over the phone. * Be randomized to either financial navigation only or financial navigation and peer support.

The goal of this 26 week randomized controlled clinical trial is to learn if using a real time continuous glucose monitor (CGM) in a healthy lifestyle program for adults with prediabetes at the YMCA can improve glucose levels, dietary habits and physical activity The main questions it aims to answer is * Does use of a CGM improve the percent of time spent with glucose values between 70-140 mg/dl * Does use of a CGM improve nutritional habits as measured by Picture Your Plate (PYP) score * Does use of a CGM improve physical activity as measured by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) score Researchers will compare individuals using real time CGM to those not using CGM Participants will be asked to: * attend weekly health coach sessions for 12 weeks followed by 3 monthly sessions. * attend a YMCA class of their choice * fill out questionnaires at baseline, 12 and 24 weeks * have an A1c blood test at baseline, 12 and 24 weeks. * wear a CGM. All participants will wear a blinded CGM at baseline. The intervention group will wear a real time CGM for 24 weeks. The control group will wear a blinded CGM for 10 days at 6, 12 and 24 weeks Read Less

The investigators will conduct an acceptability, feasibility, preliminary effectiveness trial of a 4-month, online, very low-carbohydrate breakfast-focused program in 120 adults with type 2 diabetes. The investigators will measure acceptability and feasibility, plus critical efficacy outcomes, such as changes in HbA1c, anti-hyperglycemic medications, glycemic variability, body weight, blood pressure, and lipids.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) complications are the leading cause of diabetes mellitus (DM)-related morbidity and mortality, creating a significant burden on the public health system. This burden is, in part, attributable to poor medication adherence, with 21-42% of patients failing to properly adhere to their care. Importantly, this issue is especially pronounced in minority and low-income populations, which show higher rates of chronic illness and lower medication adherence. Interventions that foster and reinforce patient-centered communication between clinicians and patients show promise in improving health outcomes. However, they have not been widely implemented, in part due to a lack of compelling evidence for their effectiveness in primary care settings. Project Objective: The investigators propose to evaluate the impact of a patient activation program: Office Guidelines Applied to Practice (Office-GAP) combined with mobile text messaging reinforcement (Way to Health \[W2H\]) on medication adherence in patients with DM compared to mobile texting alone. Office-GAP incorporates shared decision-making and a decision/support checklist to be completed during office visits, to foster patients' investment in their own care. W2H is a texting service that informs and encourages patients to adhere to goals and improve communication. The long-term goal is to develop a model that can reliably improve and sustain adherence and can be successfully implemented in primary care clinics to close the morbidity and mortality gap for minority/low-income DM patients. The hypothesis is that the combined face-to-face patient activation and texting- delivered reinforcement methods will facilitate communication between patients and providers, improving the frequency, accuracy, and timeliness of communication while reinforcing shared goals and engendering mutual respect more than texting alone. Improved communication between patients and providers may improve medication adherence, blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure control, and patient satisfaction with providers, and ultimately decrease burden of illness. Research Strategy: The investigators will conduct a randomized community-based clinical trial in Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in Michigan enrolling 378 patients in 17 teams. All patients will receive usual care and medication for DM and CVD prevention. Eight teams will use W2H alone, and 9 teams will combine Office-GAP with WTH. The investigators will evaluate the impact of shared decision-making strategies for patients and providers. Impact: If successfully translated to clinical practice, these interventions have the potential to significantly impact patient care in FQHCs, improving outcomes for DM and CVD. This research also paves the way for shifting clinical practice across a spectrum of chronic disease where medication non-adherence is an issue. Read Less

The goal of this study is to improve the therapeutic management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The main questions to answer are if a program of non-weight bearing exercise helps the DFU heal faster than standard wound care. This randomized clinical trial will determine how blood flow to the ulcer and whole body metabolism may be improved with exercise. Participants will be randomized to either exercise + standard wound care or standard wound care alone and undergo testing for leg blood flow, fitness and measures of metabolism through blood draws. The intervention period is 6-weeks. Eligible participants must have an existing foot ulcer uncomplicated by infection and be medically cleared to exercise. Read Less
