GLUCOSE-MGH: Genetic Links Understood Through Challenge With Oral Semaglutide Exposure at MGH
Testing how genetics affect the body’s blood sugar response to oral semaglutide in type 2 diabetes
📍 Massachusetts General Hospital · Boston, MA · Get directions →
The goal of this research study is to evaluate the pathophysiologic mechanisms by which genetic variation impacts response to an FDA-approved medication commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes called oral semaglutide (Rybelsus) and to characterize the physiological response to a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) before and after a 14-day treatment with oral semaglutide. The investigators will do this by measuring factors in the blood, such as sugars, fats, metabolites, and proteins, after eating a standardized breakfast meal at the first visit and after taking 14 doses of oral semaglutide over two weeks before the second study visit.

Self-Adjusted Nitrous Oxide: A Feasibility Study in the Setting of Vasectomy
Testing whether self-controlled nitrous oxide during vasectomy lowers pain and anxiety
📍 Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center · Boston, MA · Get directions →
This study is being done to see if nitrous oxide during vasectomy decreases pain and anxiety, and also assess whether patients have better satisfaction when they control their own level of nitrous oxide during the procedure. If we find that patients experience less pain or anxiety with nitrous oxide, it could be suggested that self-adjusted nitrous oxide (SANO) may be a useful tool for improving experience of care during vasectomy.

📍 Kingston Health Sciences Centre · Kingston, Ontario · Get directions →
The goal of this feasibility study is to determine the tolerability and safety of add on treatment with L-methylfolate in patients with treatment-resistant generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). The primary objective is to monitor for side effects and other risks associated with the treatment.

Glycemic and Weight Loss Effects of GLP-1R Agonist Therapy in Subjects With Spinal Cord Injury and Type 2 Diabetes
Testing how semaglutide affects blood sugar and weight in people with spinal cord injury and type 2
📍 University Health - Texas Diabetic Institute · San Antonio, TX · +1 more US site · Get directions →
It is not known whether a new diabetes drug, semaglutide, is an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), a population at higher risk for this condition. Therefore, this study looks at the effect of semaglutide on glucose levels in the body and other information about type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Randomized Evaluation of Nonhealing Diabetic Foot Ulcers With Exclusive Wound Therapy
Testing whether a wound-care approach helps heal nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers in 12 weeks
📍 Serena Group- Monroeville · Monroeville, PA · Get directions →
The goal of this study is to determine the between-arm difference in the proportion of subjects achieving complete closure of nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers with multiple CAMPs plus SOC versus matched controls over 12 weeks using a modified platform trial design.

Normal-weight Diabetes: Adipocyte-directed Therapy With Pioglitazone or Tirzepatide
Testing how fat cells and body fat patterns differ in people with type 2 diabetes, and whether
📍 Stanford University · Palo Alto, CA · +1 more US site · Get directions →
This study is to investigate how adipocyte (fat cell) function and fat distribution differ between individuals with normal-weight type 2 diabetes (NWD), those with overweight type 2 diabetes (OWD), and normal-weight controls without diabetes (NWC). The study will assess whether adipocyte-directed therapies, specifically pioglitazone and tirzepatide, can improve insulin resistance, adipocyte function, and fat distribution in individuals with NWD.

Processes and Circuitry Underlying Threat Sensitivity as a Treatment Target for Co-morbid Anxiety and Depression
Studying brain circuits for threat sensitivity in people with anxiety and depression
📍 Laureate Institute for Brain Research · Tulsa, OK · Get directions →
This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. In a double blind, placebo controlled crossover design, up to 65 individuals will be recruited who will have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and at least one anxiety disorder (AD) (AD-MDD group), up to 65 participants will have a diagnosis of MDD and no diagnosis of an AD and up to 65 participants will have no diagnosis of MDD and a diagnosis of at least one AD will be enrolled to participate in an two session study to obtain 150 completers (50 per group).
