Type 2 Diabetes Clinical Trials in Seattle, WA

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

High-resistance, short-duration inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) is a novel lifestyle intervention involving 30 inhalations against a resistive load which requires only \~5 min/day and is thus ideal for youth with T2D (Y-T2D). Investigators seek to 1: assess changes in casual and 24-hr SBP, endothelial function, and arterial stiffness after 3 months of IMST vs. sham training in Y-T2D, 2: Define changes in eGFR andalbuminuria after 3 months of IMST vs. sham in Y-T2D, 3: Interrogate mechanisms of IMST by translational assessments of NO bioavailability, endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) activation, and ROS/oxidative stress, and determine the role of circulating factors.

We are doing this study to learn more about how tirzepatide may help fight chronic kidney disease in people with obesity with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study will last about 56 weeks and include up to 12 visits. Read Less

Early diabetic kidney disease (DKD) occurs in 50-70% of youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and confers high lifetime risk of dialysis and premature death. Youth-onset T2D typically manifests during or shortly after puberty in adolescents with obesity. Epidemiological data implicate puberty as an accelerator of kidney disease in youth with obesity and diabetes and the investigators posit that the link between puberty and T2D-onset may explain the high burden of DKD in youth-onset T2D. A better understanding of the impact of puberty on kidney health is needed to promote preservation of native kidney function, especially in youth with T2D. Read Less

A human subjects research study, the primary purpose of which is to assess the EFFECTS OF SEMAGLUTIDE ON INTRACRANIAL BLOOD FLOW AND BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER PERMEABILITY IN TYPE-2 DIABETES (T2D) through testing of the intervention on patients in a clinical setting. The study will randomize subjects with diabetes to either semaglutide or matching placebo. Magnetic resonance images will be primary endpoint measured at baseline and at one year to assess effect of this FDA approved medication. Given the available evidence supporting the neuroprotective effect of this drug class and stroke reduction with semaglutide, and the investigators preliminary data showing that T2D had significantly reduced total number of distal arterial branches in the brain than non-T2D, the investigators expect treatment with semaglutide will be associated with improved intracranial blood flow condition.

The goal of this feasibility trial is to test whether a novel insulin dosing calculator can improve blood glucose management for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on hospital admission. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether using this calculator leads to no excessive hypoglycemia? * Whether using this calculator leads to a decrease of hyperglycemia? Participants will receive initial insulin doses by the calculator on hospital admission, and the rest of care will follow standard of care. Participants will be compared with patients in the UW observational cohort who received initial insulin doses by standard of care. Read Less
