NCT ID NCT05676593
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether using a Freestyle Libre 2 continuous glucose monitor for 28 days, along with standard therapeutic education, helps people recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar control. The trial enrolled 27 adults diagnosed within the past year. The main goal was to see if the monitor led to better HbA1c levels after 3 months compared to education alone.

- Active substance
- Freestyle Libre 2 (continuous glucose monitor)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that using a continuous glucose monitor alongside standard education helps people with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes better manage their blood sugar.
- What could go wrong
- This was a small, early study (27 participants) that was terminated, so results may be limited. The device only measures glucose and does not treat the disease directly.
