NCT ID NCT03460769

Summary

This study aims to develop a better way to diagnose type 3c diabetes, which is caused by pancreatic cancer or chronic pancreatitis. Researchers will give participants a standardized meal drink and measure their body's hormone responses to see how they differ from regular type 2 diabetes. The goal is to create a test that helps doctors identify pancreatic problems earlier by recognizing this specific form of diabetes.
