Diabetes Paid Clinical Trials in Minnesota

The purpose of this study is to collect clinical data to support a 7-day wear of the Extended Wear Infusion Set (EWIS). Participants will be asked to: Wear the EWIS for up to 7 consecutive days for 12 consecutive wear periods Perform blood glucose and ketone measurements if continuous glucose meter is ≥250mg/dL for one hour Read Less

This is an observational study in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) who will be receiving finerenone. Kidneys filter extra water and waste out of the blood and make urine. CKD is a long-term, progressive, decrease in the kidneys' ability to filter the blood properly. In people with T2D, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin, or does not use insulin well enough, resulting in high blood sugar levels that can cause damage to the kidneys. As a result, CKD can occur as a complication of T2D. Finerenone works by blocking certain proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptors. An increased stimulation of these proteins is thought to damage the kidneys and the heart. By lowering their stimulation, finerenone reduces the risk of kidney disease progressively getting worse. Finerenone is available and approved for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and T2D. Since it has only recently become available for these patients, there is a need for more information about the use of finerenone in the real-world setting. The main purpose of the study is to learn more about treatment patterns in people with CKD and T2D who just started or will start finerenone treatment as decided and prescribed by their doctor as part of their routine medical care. To answer this question, the researchers will collect data on: Clinical characteristics (e.g., history of CKD and T2D, blood pressure, heart health) of the participants Reasons for starting finerenone Reasons for stopping finerenone early How long participants have been taking finerenone (planned by their doctor compared to actual time it was taken) Dosing of finerenone Other medications used while taking finerenone The researchers will also collect data on medical problems (called adverse events) that the participants may have during the study. All adverse events are collected, even if they might not be related to the study treatment. Hyperkalemia, a medical term used to describe a potassium level in the blood that is higher than normal, is of special interest when finerenone is combined with some medications commonly taken to control blood pressure. Researchers want to know how often higher potassium levels occur, and when it leads to: Stopping finerenone treatment too early Dialysis (a medical procedure to filter the blood of extra water and waste) Care in a hospital All data will come from medical records or from interviews study doctors will have with the participants during visits that take place during routine medical care. Participants in the US will be invited to provide voluntary blood and urine samples that could be analyzed later to better understand possible changes in protein or nucleic acid levels over time. Each participant will be in the study for 12 months. This time participating in the study may be shorter if their finerenone treatment is stopped early or the study comes to an end as planned in September 2027. Read Less

This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar and body weight. CagriSema is a new investigational medicine. Doctors may not yet prescribe CagriSema. CagriSema will be compared to a medicine called tirzepatide that doctors may prescribe in some countries. Participants will get either CagriSema or tirzepatide. Which treatment participant get is decided by chance like flipping a coin. Participant will have an equal chance of receiving either drug. For each participant, the study will last for up to one and a half years. Read Less

Nutrition guidelines state that multiple eating patterns are effective for type 2 diabetes and that therapy should be individualized. Yet many nutrition plans fail to account for interpersonal variability in blood glucose response to meals. This diminishes the ability of dietary interventions to optimize glycemic control and may lessen patient satisfaction, self--efficacy, and adherence. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can facilitate behavior change in type 2 diabetes and has been associated with improved outcomes in nutrition intervention studies; this literature is limited by small study sample sizes and heterogeneity of study design and outcomes, and more data are needed. CGM could be a powerful tool for adapting a nutrition plan based on blood glucose response at an individual level. This study will test the use of CGM to personalize nutrition therapy compared to nutrition therapy alone (without CGM) for participants with type 2 diabetes who are not meeting glycemic treatment goals.

To acquire blood samples from subjects for various purposes, including: i) determining the sensitivity and specificity of select DNA methylation markers for the detection of various types of cancer, ii) identifying benign conditions that may induce false positive or false negative results, and iii) defining the effects of potential interfering substances, such as chemotherapy drugs.

The purpose of this single-arm interventional study is to evaluate the long-term safety, efficacy, and durability of the Symplicity Spyral system in subjects treated with renal denervation. Additionally, long-term follow-up data will also be collected from eligible subjects previously treated in the SPYRAL PIVOTAL-SPYRAL HTN-OFF MED and SPYRAL HTN-ON MED studies. Read Less

Researchers are trying to understand why people with indigestion and diabetes mellitus have gastrointestinal symptoms and in particular to understand whether symptoms are related to increased sensitivity to nutrients in the small intestine. As part of this investigation, a medication called ondansetron will also be studied to determine its effects on gastrointestinal function and associated symptoms. Read Less

Caloric restriction (and RYGB) improves insulin action and lowers fasting glucose, glucagon and EGP, without changes in postprandial EGP and glucagon concentrations. Caloric restriction also improves hepatic steatosis and lowers fasting AA. These changes may represent restoration of glucagon's hepatic actions. This experiment will determine whether caloric restriction improves glucagon's actions on hepatic amino acid, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in T2DM in comparison to a baseline experiment performed separately in people with T2DM.

Whether impaired postprandial glucagon suppression in prediabetes and T2DM is an attempt to overcome resistance to glucagon's actions on hepatic AA catabolism, a defect in α-cell function, or a combination of both are important, unanswered questions. NAFLD is associated with T2DM risk and impaired insulin action. Unfortunately, it is unclear if glucagon resistance is caused by obesity, hepatic steatosis or both. The experiments outlined will determine if glucagon's actions on hepatic amino acid catabolism and EGP interact with hepatic lipid metabolism in lean and obese subjects with and without T2DM (and with varying degrees of hepatic steatosis).
