New hope for teens with type 2 diabetes: Higher-Dose dulaglutide under study

NCT ID NCT06739122

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

Summary

This study tests two higher doses (3.0 mg and 4.5 mg) of the diabetes drug dulaglutide in teenagers aged 10 to 17 with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if these doses are safe and help control blood sugar and weight. Participants will receive weekly injections for about 8 months, and the study is currently recruiting 55 teens.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

dulaglutide (a once-weekly injection that helps lower blood sugar)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide higher-dose options for teenagers with type 2 diabetes to better manage their blood sugar and weight.

What could go wrong

This is a single-arm, open-label study with no placebo group, so results may be less reliable. Side effects like nausea or stomach issues are possible, and the trial is small (55 participants).
