NCT ID NCT07351786

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether newer diabetes drugs (SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors) can delay or prevent diabetic retinopathy, an eye disease that can lead to vision loss. Researchers will compare these newer drugs to older treatments in 70 people with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if early use of these drugs can reduce the burden of eye disease and improve quality of life.
