Study Summary

This trial will test whether a continuous glucose monitoring device is helpful for people with type 2 diabetes who are not taking insulin.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with type 2 diabetes who have an Hb A1c level of at least 7%, a BMI of 30 or higher, and can use a smartphone. They should be able to wear the Dexcom G6 glucose monitor without skin issues but not be on insulin or weight loss meds recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how well the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring device works for people with type 2 diabetes who aren't using insulin. It aims to see if this tech helps in managing their condition effectively.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Wearing the CGM may cause potential skin irritation where it attaches to the body. There are no significant side effects expected from using the Dexcom G6 as it's non-invasive monitoring.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: UnblindedExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
During Phase 2 (3 months), the patient wears the Dexcom G6 Personal CGM in un-blinded mode and the medical providers have access to the data via Clarity and/or direct download via the transmitter. CGM data are collected continuously in each phase and at the end of each phase.
Group II: BlindedActive Control1 Intervention
During Phase 1 (10 days), the patient wears the Dexcom G6 Pro CGM in blinded mode and is unaware and unable to access the data. The patient performs standard care, self-monitoring with twice daily glucose checks using standard finger-sticks and a glucometer device. During this phase, the medical providers are also blinded to the CGM data and continue standard care without any specific intervention.
