NCT ID NCT05565534
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looked at whether adding a nurse trained in diabetes care to the treatment team helps breast cancer patients with diabetes or prediabetes manage their blood sugar during cancer therapy. Researchers split 74 patients into two groups: one worked with the diabetes nurse, the other did not. The goal was to see if this approach is practical and helpful for patients and doctors.
