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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether dulaglutide, a drug used for type 2 diabetes, can improve small blood vessel function in adults with type 1 diabetes. The study involves 47 participants aged 18-40 with long-standing type 1 diabetes. Researchers measure blood flow and insulin sensitivity to see if the drug reduces oxidative stress and improves endothelial health. The trial is currently suspended.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Dulaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist drug, similar to medications used for type 2 diabetes)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new way to protect small blood vessels in people with type 1 diabetes, potentially reducing complications like kidney or eye disease.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial that is currently suspended. It tests a drug not yet approved for type 1 diabetes, and results may not lead to a new treatment. Risks include side effects from dulaglutide.
