The proposed research is designed to extend previous research findings building on the knowledge of strawberries as fruits that support a healthy immune and vascular system. The proposed research leverages a recently funded proposal by the USDA to study in greater depth inflammation, glucoregulation and oxidative stress defense and their relation to improving endothelial function and insulin sensitivity. Before and after strawberry intake, blood samples will be collected for monocyte (immune cells and source of inflammatory cytokines) isolation and activation via changes in cellular NF-κB and Nrf-2 (key transcription factors of inflammation/oxidative stress defense) status along with products of their activation (ie., plasma cytokines). Because inflammation and oxidative stress impairs endothelial function and insulin sensitivity, acutely and chronically, investigators will also study changes in vascular and insulin sensitivity status, assessing changes in vascular adhesion molecules, endothelial responsiveness through flow mediated vasodilation (ie., FMD) and insulin sensitivity using the Liquid Meal Tolerance (LMTT) if intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) method cannot be used due to supply chain issues of sterile Dextrose. Glucoregulation will be assessed by placing a Continuous Glucose monitoring (CGM) machine (Dexcom-6) to participants for 10 days at the beginning and at the end of the study period of intervention. The study will be a randomized, double-blinded, 3-arm parallel, 4-week, dose-response study. Individuals with chronic low grade inflammation will be sought to test the anti-inflammation - vaso-relaxing - insulin sensitivity effects of strawberry.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Dihydroberberine (DHB) supplementation affects adults with pre-diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does DHB supplementation increase the concentration of GLP-1 in the blood? Does DHB supplementation affect appetite, mood, and energy levels? Does DHB supplementation affect body weight, blood sugar control and insulin? Researchers will compare DHB supplementation to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if DHB has any effect. Participants will: Take DHB or a placebo every day for 6 weeks. Participate in tests to measure GLP-1 levels, blood glucose, insulin and other markers. Have their continuous blood sugar profiles (with CGMs) monitored to see how much time their blood sugar spends in a healthy range. Rate their appetite, mood, and energy levels using a visual analog scale.

The goal of this randomized crossover trial is to compare the differences in psychological and physiological effects of walking in two different outdoor environments (urban/suburban commercial environments vs. urban/suburban nature areas/preserves) in adults with prediabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do psychological measures of stress, anxiety, and affect improve more in one type of outdoor environment over the other? * Do physiological measures of stress improve more in one type of outdoor environment over the other? As this is a crossover trial, participants will serve as their own controls. Researchers will compare both the psychological and physiological effects walking in the two types of outdoor environments. Participants will: * Walk 150-minutes per week for six weeks in each of the two outdoor conditions. * Visit the clinic four times, including before and after each six-week walking period. * Collect saliva samples immediately proceeding or following the four clinic visits. * Return to their pre-study level of physical activity for a 5-week washout period between each of the two walking interventions.

Strategies to reduce sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) have become one of the leading public health targets to address the epidemics of obesity and diabetes. National food, nutrition, and health policies and programs have positioned low-fat milk as the preferred caloric replacement strategy for SSBs. This strategy derives from evidence that replacement of SSBs with low-fat milk is associated with reductions in weight and incident diabetes in prospective cohort studies and reduces liver fat (an important early metabolic lesion linking obesity to diabetes), as well as triglycerides and blood pressure in randomized trials. Whether these benefits hold for soy milk alternatives is unclear. There is an urgent need for studies to clarify the benefits of soy milk as an alternative to cow's milk. Our overarching aim is to produce high-quality clinical evidence that informs the use of soy as a "public health intervention" for addressing the dual epidemics of obesity and diabetes and overall metabolic health. To achieve this aim, we propose to conduct the Soy Treatment Evaluation for Metabolic health (STEM) trial, a large, pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of using 2% soy milk (soy protein vehicle) versus 2% cow's milk (casein and whey vehicle matched for protein and volume) as a "public health intervention" to replace SSBs on liver fat and key cardiometabolic mediators/indicators in an at risk population.

The goals of this clinical trial are to learn if Nextida-GC (a peptide derived from collagen) will reduce postprandial glucose responses when taken 30 minutes before, 10 minutes before or with the first bite of a breakfast test-meal consisting or bread, margarine and jam with a drink coffee, tea or water (each subject will choose a drink and have the same drink each time). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Nextida-GC reduce glucose responses more than whey protein? What are the effects of Nextida-GC and whey protein on plasma glucose and serum insulin responses when given 30 minutes before eating, 10 minutes before eating, or with the breakfast test meal? Overall, is it better to take Nextida-GC 30 minutes before eating, 10 minutes before eating, or with the breakfast test meal? Participants will: Come to the research center (INQUIS Clinical Research, Toronto, Ontario, Canada) on 8 separate occasions (with bewteen 3 and 14 days between visits) after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. Each participant will undergo all 8 treatments (one treatment per visit): Block 1 * 10 grams Nextida-GC in water 30 minutes before eating the test-meal * 10 grams Nextida-GC in water 10 minutes before eating the test-meal * water 30min before eating and 10g Nextida-GC in water with the test-meal * water 30min before eating, and water with the test-meal Block 2 * 10 grams whey protein in water 30 minutes before eating the test-meal * 10 grams whey protein in water 10 minutes before eating the test-meal * water 30min before eating and 10g whey protein in water with the test-meal * water 30min before eating, and water with the test-meal The order of the blocks will be randomized and the order of the treatments within the blocks will be randomized. On each occasions finger-stick blood samples for measuring glucose and insulin will be obtained 30, 10 and 0 minutes before starting to eat the test-meal and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes after the first bite of the test-meal. The main outcome of the study is the area under the curve of plasma glucose from 0 to 180 minutes.

Obesity and its metabolic complications are leading causes of global morbidity and mortality. Evidence is mounting that inappropriate timing of food intake contributes to obesity. Specifically, late eating is associated with greater weight gain and metabolic syndrome. However, the mechanism by which late eating harms metabolism is not fully understood but may be related to mis-timing of food intake in relation to the body's endogenous circadian rhythm. Conversely, harmonization of eating timing with endogenous circadian rhythm may optimize metabolic health. In this study the investigators will use gold-standard methods of characterizing circadian rhythm in humans to examine the metabolic impacts food timing relative to endogenous circadian rhythm.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of time-restricted eating (TRE), which is a form of intermittent fasting. When performing TRE, individuals consume all of their calories within a specific time window and then only consume water or other no calorie drinks the rest of the day. TRE is performed each day. There is no restriction on the quality or amount of food that people can consume during their eating window (ad libitum eating) with TRE, which can last anywhere from 4 to 12 hours. We are comparing three different 9-hour eating windows to determine whether the start and stop time of the eating window impact blood sugar control in individuals with obesity who also have or are at risk for type 2 diabetes. We also aim to determine if there are differences in the effects of the timing of eating window between males and females.

The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) was a multi-center trial examining the ability of an intensive lifestyle or metformin to prevent or delay the development of diabetes in a high risk population due to the presence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT, 2 hour glucose of 140-199 mg/dl). The DPP has ended early demonstrating that lifestyle reduced diabetes onset by 58% and metformin reduced diabetes onset by 31%. DPPOS (2002-2013) is designed to take advantage of the scientifically and clinically valuable DPP participants. This group of participants is nearly 50% minority and represents the largest at risk population ever studied. Clinically important research questions remain that focus on 1) durability of the prior DPP intervention, 2) determination of the clinical course of precisely known new onset diabetes, in particular regarding microvascular disease, CVD risk factors and atherosclerosis, 3) close examination of these topics in men vs women and in minority populations. The major aims of DPPOS-3 (2014-2025) take advantage of the long-term randomized exposure of the study cohort to metformin and the aging of the DPPOS cohort. The metformin exposure and high degree of study retention and adherence (\~85% of the DPPOS cohort continues to attend annual and mid-year visits) allows DPPOS-3 to examine the long-term effects of metformin on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer outcomes, outcomes of great clinical interest and import.

High-Fat Diet for Insulin Resistance

Washington, District of Columbia
The purpose of this study is to understand how the body's response after a meal is influenced by insulin and sugar in the blood. The primary question this study seeks to address is what is the effect of reduced insulin sensitivity on postprandial metabolic flexibility to an oral glucose tolerance test. We will recruit 50 adults (ages 20-45; 50% female) who are otherwise healthy (no known clinical diagnosis) into our non-randomized crossover trial to determine the effect of changes in insulin sensitivity on metabolic response to feeding. Insulin sensitivity will be decreased using a three-day high-fat diet (HFD) with extra calories. Whole-body metabolism will be measured during a standard 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Metabolic response to feeding (e.g. OGTT) will be compared before and after the HFD and compared with the control diet to understand the effect of decreased insulin sensitivity on the metabolic response to feeding. The role of biological sex as a moderator of the effect of increased insulin resistance on postprandial metabolic flexibility will also be investigated

The investigators overarching goal is to increase the percentage of patients engaging in diabetes prevention activities to reduce the incidence of diabetes. The investigators objective is to design and pilot test a prediabetes clinical decision support (CDS) tool in the electronic health record (EHR) that will assess the patient's activation level based on responses to a questionnaire. Based on the patient's assessed level of activation, the tool will generate several communication recommendations to guide clinicians in conversations related to prediabetes/lifestyle change and tailor recommendations about available resources (e.g., care manager, health coach, DPP) to support patient activation.

More than 84 million - or 1 out of every 3 U.S. adults - have prediabetes, a condition that if not treated often leads to type 2 diabetes within five years. Average medical expenditures among diabetics are about 2.3 times higher than expenditures for people without diabetes. Physical inactivity and elevated body mass index (BMI) are major risk factors for the disease. Sedentary behavior is becoming increasingly prevalent with the growth of a 'work from home' culture, most recently driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. Cross-sectional epidemiologic data report significant associations between high amounts of sedentary (sitting) time and prevalent cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In our pilot study of 15 subjects with sedentary office jobs, 6 months of sit-stand desk use resulted in a 23% improvement in insulin resistance, most substantial in those who decreased daily sitting by over 90 minutes/day. Additional improvements in vascular endothelial function and triglyceride levels were seen without any change in exercise activity, step counts, or body weight. These findings not only corroborate epidemiologic findings on this topic but suggest causality and warrant a randomized control trial. The investigators hypothesize that adult subjects at-risk for diabetes will improve insulin sensitivity, metabolic and vascular (endothelial) health with a sit-stand desk intervention at work (whether in the office or at home), in the context of a randomized, controlled trial. The investigators will randomize 198 sedentary office workers with a BMI≥25 at risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus in a 1:1:1 ratio of three groups: (a) sit-stand desk intervention targeting 2 hours standing per day; (b) sit-stand desk intervention targeting 3 hours standing per day; or (c) control arm over 6 months. The block randomization design will allow for important dose-response analyses. The investigators will objectively quantify standing time, sedentary time, sedentary bouts, daily steps, and exercise activity times using a compact and re-usable accelerometer that adheres to the subject's thigh. This will provide objective assessments of activity levels and sedentary times for 7 full days each at baseline, 3 and 6 months. The device is equipped with an inclinometer to classify posture (sitting verses standing).

Type 2 diabetes (DM2) affects nearly 20 million people in the United States while impaired glucose regulation (IGR), which includes impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), impaired fasting glucose (IFG), and early diabetes affects a considerably larger but unknown population group. At the current time there is no effective therapy to completely prevent, or reverse neuropathy associated with IGR and this represents a considerable challenge in rehabilitation. There is a particularly strong incentive to prevent IGT and related complications from advancing to DM2. IGR is a growing problem among all older adults and its strong association with many functional limitations, particularly mobility limitations, is not always recognized, even though diabetes-related disability occurs in up to 2/3 of older adults with diabetes and is associated with dependency, poor quality of life, and increased acute and long-term care utilization. Autonomic dysfunction is a significant problem in subjects with IGT. The Preliminary Data shows that over 90% of subjects with IGT have an abnormal score on questionnaires about autonomic symptoms such as lightheadedness, dry mouth or dry eyes, pale or blue feet, feet that are colder than the rest of the body, decreased sweating in the feet or increased sweating in the hands, nausea or bloating after eating, persistent diarrhea or constipation, or leaking of urine. In addition, patients with IGR have impaired balance control. These factors can increase the risk of falls in affected subjects. A non-randomized and non-controlled study showed that a diet and exercise intervention in patients with diabetes led to an overall improvement in autonomic function. Furthermore, it was shown that standing balance can be improved with a balance intervention program. However, there are no published studies that assess the effect of an intense physical activity intervention on autonomic function in IGR related neuropathy. This study will test an aerobic exercise and balance intervention in participants with IGR. The investigators will examine if an individually tailored, carefully monitored, Diet, Physical Activity, and Balance Enhancement Program (DPAEP) can improve autonomic function and balance control when compared to patients who receive standard care. Improving balance control and autonomic function can decrease the risk of falls and have a significant effect on the health of participants. The research is also significant because it will test subjects either before they become diabetic, or at an early stage in their diabetes, thus enhancing the chance of reversing the autonomic neuropathy or balance impairment. Furthermore, the study is designed to test whether improvement in autonomic function and balance is associated with improvement in clinical outcomes, quality of life, and the metabolic state of participants. Thus, the proposed interventions are likely to have a real life impact on participants and their health.

The proposed study uses a novel and rigorous randomized cross-over study design in youth (17-23y) with late and non-late chronotype (n=35 per group) to assess the glycemic effect of "aligning" an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) or first-meal of day to a subject's chronotype. Both groups will undergo 2 OGTTs (aligned and mis-aligned with chronotype) to compare glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity within-subject (primary outcome) and between groups (Aim 1). Then, youth will also undergo two standardized meals (aligned and mis-aligned with chronotype) while wearing continuous glucose monitoring to compare post-prandial glucose excursions within-subject and between groups (Aim 2). A pilot Exploratory Aim 3 (n=12 per group) will investigate delayed melatonin patterns under dim-light as a potential pathophysiologic mechanism behind abnormal glucose tolerance in youth with late chronotype on morning OGTTs.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the fastest growing public health problems in developed and developing countries and imposes a large financial burden on health-care systems. Preventing, delaying, and managing diabetes should be a priority for health-care systems. Nationally, 38% of adults have prediabetes, with more than 80% of people with prediabetes being unaware of their condition. In Maryland, an estimated 10.5% of adults report prediabetes, and 33.7% of Baltimore City residents have obesity, an important risk factor for prediabetes. The BMDRP aims to increase the capacity of BMDRP hospitals and community partners to offer DPP and DSMT directly in communities and will also increase the number of referrals into these programs. Successful enrollment and completion of DPP has demonstrated reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes for individuals with pre-diabetes. However, limited data exist on changes in body composition and liver fat in individuals completing DPP. Individuals with pre-diabetes often have obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We will evaluate for changes in body fat and liver fat in individuals completing the DPP program.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Pre Diabetes clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Pre Diabetes clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Pre Diabetes trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Pre Diabetes is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Pre Diabetes medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Pre Diabetes clinical trials?
