Could a tiny glucagon shot before workout stop blood sugar crashes in type 1 diabetes?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a low dose of glucagon, given before exercise, can prevent blood sugar drops in adults with type 1 diabetes who use an automated insulin pump. Eighteen participants will exercise after a meal, comparing glucagon to a standard glucose drink. The goal is to…

New imaging test could pinpoint tiny pancreatic tumors in babies, guiding Life-Saving surgery
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a special PET scan using a radioactive tracer called FDOPA can accurately find and locate focal lesions in the pancreas of infants with congenital hyperinsulinism, a condition causing severe low blood sugar. The goal is to help surgeons remove only the di…

New scan spots tiny pancreatic tumors that cause dangerous low blood sugar
Diagnosis AVAILABLEThis study offers expanded access to a PET scan using a radioactive tracer called 18F-DOPA to locate small, insulin-producing lesions in the pancreas. It is for patients with congenital hyperinsulinism, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, or insulinoma who have low blood sugar. The goal…

New imaging trial aims to sharpen diagnosis for Parkinson's, tumors, and more
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis phase 3 study is testing an improved PET/CT imaging method using a radioactive tracer called 18F-DOPA. Researchers want to see if it can better detect small lesions and reduce image artifacts in patients with conditions like congenital hyperinsulinism, neuroblastoma, neuroen…

New scan could pinpoint hidden pancreas problems, avoiding major surgery
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study is testing whether a special PET/MRI scan using 18F-DOPA can accurately locate small, overactive areas in the pancreas that cause too much insulin (hyperinsulinism). The goal is to help doctors decide if surgery can remove just the problem spot, potentially curing the …
