What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study looks at how different types of exercise—walking and weight-lifting—affect blood sugar levels in post-menopausal women with type 1 diabetes. Twenty participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor and complete three sessions: one with aerobic exercise, one with resistance exercise, and one resting. Researchers will track blood sugar changes during and after exercise to better understand how to manage diabetes in this group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
aerobic exercise (walking) and resistance exercise (weight-lifting)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help tailor exercise recommendations for post-menopausal women with type 1 diabetes to better manage blood sugar levels.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to all. Exercise can also cause unpredictable blood sugar changes, including hypoglycemia.

Participants

About 20 people

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

Started

Mar 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Other sponsor

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

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
