What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This community-based trial evaluates whether primary care physicians, equipped with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and trained under a standardized protocol with specialist backup, can improve diabetes outcomes through integrated "medication + exercise + diet" interventions. Unlike traditional fingerstick testing, CGM reveals full glycemic variability, enabling personalized, real-time adjustments. The study hypothesizes that this approach will lower HbA1c, reduce hypoglycemia risk, and decrease long-term cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune-related complications. With low-cost, reliable Chinese-made CGM devices, the intervention is safe and scalable. A cost-effectiveness analysis will also assess its public health value.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 15,400 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Nov 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Dec 2030

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged 18-80 years, either sex * Permanent community residents (residing in the community for at least 6 months per year on average) * Baseline HbA1c 7.0%-14%, fasting blood glucose \<13.9 mmol/L, and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose \<16.7 mmol/L * Own and able to use a smartphone, or have assistance from family members * Enrolled in the National Basic Medical Insurance scheme (Urban and Rural Resident Medical Insurance or Employee Medical Insurance) * Participants and their legal representatives are able and willing to sign the informed consent form Exclusion Criteria: * Type 1 diabetes, specific types of diabetes, or gestational diabetes * Prior definite myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, or hospitalization for heart failure * Known severe hepatic or renal insufficiency, or dialysis for any cause. Severe hepatic insufficiency includes alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \>3 times the upper limit of normal or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>3 times the upper limit of normal. Severe renal insufficiency is defined as serum creatinine \>3.0 mg/dL (265.2 micromol/L) or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \<30 mL/min/1.73 m2 * Hyperglycemic crisis, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe hypoglycemic coma requiring assistance within the past 3 months * History of severe allergy to CGM sensor materials, such as medical adhesive tape * Definite diagnosis of severe diabetic complications documented in the medical history or medical records * Definite active immunodeficiency disease or immune-mediated inflammatory disease, or use of systemic glucocorticoids, conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, biologics, or targeted immunotherapies within 6 months before enrollment. Examples include systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, Sjogren syndrome, systemic sclerosis, systemic vasculitis, autoimmune hepatitis, inflammatory myopathies, and active or thyroid-function-unstable Hashimoto thyroiditis or Graves disease * Severe mental disorder or dementia that precludes completion of informed consent and follow-up procedures * Concurrent malignant tumor or severe systemic disease with an estimated life expectancy \<90 days * Participation in another interventional clinical study within 30 days before randomization or current participation in another interventional clinical study * Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or planned pregnancy within 90 days * Other conditions deemed by the investigator to make participation unsuitable
