Smart sensors vs. finger pricks: which works better for diabetes?

NCT ID NCT07595289

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compares two glucose monitoring methods—continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and traditional finger-prick tests—in adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking the drug dapagliflozin. The 120 participants will be split into two groups and followed for 12 weeks to see which method leads to better blood sugar control. The trial also tests whether a digital platform can run most of the study remotely, reducing the need for hospital visits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

dapagliflozin

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that combining a common diabetes drug with continuous glucose monitoring helps more people reach their blood sugar targets than traditional finger-prick testing.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial (120 people) testing feasibility as much as effectiveness. The results may not apply to all people with diabetes, and the technology platform may have reliability issues.
