Effectiveness

How Tolinase Affects Patients

Tolazamide is a type of medicine that helps reduce blood sugar levels. It does this by encouraging the pancreas to produce more insulin, though other processes may also be involved. Over time, the body may become less responsive to the effects of tolazamide, but it may still work for some people who have stopped responding to other types of sulfonylurea drugs. Additionally, tolazamide can also cause increased urination.

How Tolinase works in the body

Sulfonylureas help the body produce more insulin. They do this by attaching to receptors on the surface of pancreatic cells. This causes the cells to become more electrically charged, which then triggers calcium ions to enter the cell. The increased calcium ions lead to the release of insulin.

Tolinase Toxicity & Overdose Risk

Taking too much of a sulfonylurea can cause extremely low blood sugar, which can lead to unconsciousness, seizures, and other serious neurological issues. This is a medical emergency that requires immediate hospital care.

CX11 for Type 2 Diabetes

18 - 75
All Sexes
Birmingham, AL

This study is testing whether a new medication called CX11 works and is safe for participants with type 2 diabetes who have not reached good blood sugar control while taking a steady dose of metformin, with or without a steady dose of an SGLT2 inhibitor, for at least 90 days. The study is being done at multiple medical centers. Participants are assigned by chance (randomized) to different groups, and neither the participants nor the study staff know which group they're in (double-blind). The groups are compared side by side (parallel), and some participants will receive inactive pills (placebo) to help measure the true effect of the study drug. After screening, participants will be randomly placed into one of six groups, with equal chances of being in any group. Each group will receive a different dose of CX11 or a placebo. Treatment will last 24 weeks. After that, all participants will have a 2-week follow-up period to check on safety.

Adaptive Dietary Intervention for Type 2 Diabetes

18+
All Sexes
New York, NY

The investigators will examine the feasibility, acceptability, and effect of an adaptive dietary intervention over 24 weeks (12-week intervention, 12-week follow-up) among Asian Americans with Type 2 diabetes. Participants (N=120; 60 Chinese Americans and 60 Vietnamese Americans) will be 2:1 randomized to one of two arms: adaptive dietary intervention or standard of care (SC). The intervention will begin with continued glucose monitoring (CGM) use only during weeks 0-4. At week 4, participants who achieve the glycemic control goal (at least an 8% increase in time in range \[TIR\] from baseline) will continue with the CGM alone during weeks 4-12 ("CGM Alone"); otherwise, culturally and linguistically adapted glucose excursion minimization (GEM) will be augmented with CGM ("CGM-GEM").

MetSense Risk Flag for Type 2 Diabetes

18+
All Sexes
Pleasanton, CA

People with serious mental illness have high risk for type 2 diabetes due to multiple risk factors, including the metabolic side effects of psychotropic medications that are used to treat these conditions. Type 2 diabetes is preventable through lifestyle and pharmacological interventions, but many people with serious mental illness do not receive regular screening for type 2 diabetes risk. In many health care settings, clinical pharmacists are increasingly managing patients with serious mental illness and have expertise in monitoring the metabolic side effects of psychotropic medications. This study evaluates the feasibility and acceptability of using a diabetes prediction model that is based on electronic health record data (the MetSense risk flag) to alert clinical pharmacists about patients who are at high diabetes risk, prompting these clinicians to prioritize diabetes risk management services.

Tailored DPP for Prediabetes

17 - 25
All Sexes
Los Angeles, CA

The goal of this study is to enhance reach and uptake of diabetes prevention among young adults, with a focus on recruiting underserved and high-need students who face additional challenges, including food and financial insecurity. The specific aims are: Aim 1 - Evaluate the efficacy of an AYA-tailored version of the UC DPP for mitigating type 2 diabetes risk (i.e., weight change) in a pre/post pilot trial. The investigators hypothesize that the AYA-tailored intervention will be effective at producing 5% weight loss from baseline to program completion (at 9-months). Aim 2 - Assess the feasibility and acceptability of an AYA-tailored version of the UC DPP program. The investigators hypothesize that it will be feasible to recruit the desired number of participants given proposed innovative outreach strategies, and that the AYA-tailored intervention will be deemed acceptable to participants both qualitatively and in regards to their retention in the program at rates similar to the larger UC DPP. The investigators will recruit 80 UCLA undergraduate students. Participants will be asked to complete a brief screening online form to assess eligibility and to collect contact information. The PI and/or Research Assistants (RAs) will reach out to eligible participants to obtain informed consent and enroll them in the pilot trial. The investigators will randomize participants to the tailored DPP cohort vs control cohort. Control participants will be offered the opportunity to participate in the tailored DPP in the following academic year. The tailored DPP intervention will be online and asynchronously. Participants will be asked to complete the intervention lessons on their own time. Each lesson typically takes on average 15 minutes to complete. Control group will receive each intervention materials via e-mail for participants to review on their own time and will receive acceptability surveys. The interventions for the control group will be remote. A research assistant will meet with control participants via Zoom to explain the intervention materials. Control group will receive access to a study habits intervention, alcohol use intervention, and financial literacy intervention. At the end of each quarter (Fall, Winter, and Spring), both control and intervention participants will receive an email with a unique link to a brief REDCap survey to ascertain acceptability of sessions/lessons. Furthermore, participants will complete baseline and 9-month follow-up assessments. Participants will complete a 30 minute questionnaire and height/weight measurements will be collected by a RA. Participants will be asked to self-report weight and physical activity at the end of the fall and winter quarter; data will be collected via brief REDCap survey.

Black Impact for Heart Health

18+
Male
Birmingham, AL

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of the FELLAship program-a church-based cardiovascular health (CVH) intervention-in Black men aged 35-70 who are at risk for heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and related conditions. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does participation in the FELLAship program improve cardiovascular health metrics (e.g., blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar) and health behaviors among Black men at The Worship Center Christian Church (TWC)? * What factors influence the adoption, delivery, and sustainability of the FELLAship program in a faith-based setting? Researchers will compare an immediate-start intervention group and a delayed-start (waitlist control) group to assess both short-term health outcomes and program implementation factors. Participants will: * Attend a 90-minute weekly session for 24 weeks, including 45 minutes of physical activity led by a certified trainer and 45 minutes of health education delivered by trained coaches. * Receive one-on-one support from a community health worker to reduce barriers to care and engage with primary care. * Complete biometric health screenings and surveys at baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks to assess clinical and behavioral outcomes. * Use a smartwatch, blood pressure cuff, and other tools to track progress in real time. * Participate in exit focus groups or interviews to share feedback about the intervention. * A subset of TWC leaders and interventionists (N=15) will also be interviewed to assess implementation, resource needs, and sustainability. This study uses the RE-AIM framework to assess Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance, and aims to inform scalable strategies for improving CVH among Black men in trusted community settings.
