Can remote glucose monitoring tame type 2 diabetes in underserved communities?
NCT ID NCT06939413
First seen Aug 17, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a diabetes care program using continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and remote patient monitoring can help adults with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar levels and reduce diabetes-related distress. Participants will wear a CGM that shows how their glucose responds to food, activity, and medication, while their care team remotely monitors the data and adjusts treatment as needed. The trial will measure changes in A1c, time in range, and diabetes distress over 52 weeks.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and remote patient monitoring (RPM)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could offer a practical, sustainable way to improve blood sugar control and reduce diabetes-related distress in underserved communities.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study (40 participants) without a control group, so results may not be generalizable. The intervention relies on patient engagement and clinic resources, which may limit its real-world impact.
