Smartphone app could improve blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes
NCT ID NCT05684341
First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a connected smartphone app called Health2Sync helps adults with type 2 diabetes who use basal insulin achieve better blood sugar control. The app syncs blood glucose readings and shares them with doctors, who can then adjust insulin doses. Researchers compare this approach to standard care to see if it leads to lower HbA1c levels after 24 weeks.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Connected Solution with H2S app which connects with blood glucose meter (BGM)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this connected app could help people with type 2 diabetes achieve better blood sugar control with fewer doctor visits.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively small study in Taiwan, and results may not apply to other populations. The app's benefit over usual care may be modest or absent.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must be ≥ 20 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent * Participants were diagnosed with T2DM prior to the screening visit * Participants who are insulin naïve, or already treated with basal insulin but uncontrolled with the same insulin regimen for at least 3 months (90 days) prior to Day 1 * Participants with HbA1c between 7.5% and 11% (inclusive) at the screening visit and Day 1 * Participants with fasting self-measured blood glucose (fSMBG) or fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \>130 mg/dL at the screening visit and Day 1 * Capable of giving signed informed consent * Willing and able to use the H2S app and glucometer Exclusion Criteria: * Participants with diabetes other than T2DM * H2S app/ BGM is not appropriate for the participant or use of device is otherwise contraindicated (in the opinion of the investigators) * Participants with hypoglycemia unawareness or with severe hypoglycemia within the past 90 days prior to the screening visit and until Day 1 * Hospitalization (for any reason) in the past 30 days prior to the screening visit and until Day 1 * Participants with severe conditions/concomitant diseases precluding their safety or ability to participate in this study, as judged by the investigators - Participants are not on stable dose of glucose lowering therapy including OADs, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, or basal insulin therapy within the past 12 weeks prior to the screening visit and until Day 1 per investigator's discretion * Participants using mealtime insulin for more than 10 days in the last 90 days before the screening visit and until Day 1 * Participants who used H2S app within 1 month prior to the screening visit and until Day 1 randomization * Participants who have taken other investigational drugs within 90 days or 5 half-lives prior to screening or randomization, whichever is longer The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.
