Type 2 Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy

February 4, 2026 updated by: Barber, Rebecca, Children's Hospital Los Angeles

Randomized Control Trial Evaluating the Impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy Education Curriculum Versus Standard Care on Glycemic Outcomes for Youth With Type 2 Diabetes

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the Impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy Education Curriculum Versus Standard Care on Glycemic Outcomes for Youth With Type 2 Diabetes (T2D):

  • The first aim is to determine how feasible it is to adapt the Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy curriculum to teach youth with T2D glucose management strategies.
  • The second aim is to evaluate the effects of the Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy metrics.
  • The third aim is to explore the relationships between these metrics with diabetes distress, diabetes family responsibilities, and process metrics.

Participants will join for a total of four weeks of education, followed by a six-month clinical review. They will have access to an online workbook and videos, and will participate in virtual sessions with a diabetes educator who will cover glucose management strategies in-depth. Participants will wear their preferred Continuous Glucose Monitoring system (Dexcom or FreeStyle Libre) provided via insurance and inserted at the baseline visit.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
60

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean change in Time in Range (TIR) from baseline to 6 months
Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months
Change in % glucose TIR (70-180 mg/dL)
Baseline to 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Average number of diabetes educator hours used per study participant at week 4 & 6 months.
Time Frame: Week 4 and 6 months
Number of hours spent in diabetes education
Week 4 and 6 months
Mean change in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to 6 months
Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months
Change in Hemoglobin A1c
Baseline to 6 months
Mean change in CGM metrics measured by CGM readings
Time Frame: Week 4 & 6 months
% Glucose Time Below Range (<70mg/dL), % Glucose Time Above Range (>180mg/dL), % Glucose Variability (coefficient of variation, CV)
Week 4 & 6 months
Change in perceived diabetes distress at baseline, week 4 & 6 months
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 4 & 6 months
The Type 2 Diabetes Distress Assessment System (T2-DDAS) measures how much overall emotional distress is due to diabetes. Respondents are given statements about diabetes-related issues and indicate on a 5-point Likert scale (0 = not a problem, 1 = minor problem, 2 = moderate problem, 3 = somewhat serious problem, 4 = serious problem) the degree to which the statements are a problem. Increasing scores denote increased burden perceived.
Baseline, Week 4 & 6 months
Change in perceived diabetes family responsibility at baseline, week 4 & 6 months
Time Frame: Baseline, week 4 & 6 months
The Diabetes Family Responsibility Questionnaire (DFRQ) is a 14-item validated survey assessing parental and child involvement in various diabetes management tasks. Youth and caregivers report on a 3-point scale (1=child, 2=equal, 3=parent) who is responsible for a given diabetes task. Higher scores indicate more parental involvement in diabetes management.
Baseline, week 4 & 6 months
Mean change in perceived benefits of Continuous Glucose (CGM) Monitor use
Time Frame: Week 4 & 6 months
Name of questionnaire: Adolescent Benefits and Burdens of CGM Survey - BenCGM & BurCGM. Participants answer each question on a scale of Strong Disagree, Disagree, Neutral, Agree, Strongly Agree.
