About this study

Official title: Polish Registry of Diabetes - PL: Polski Rejestr Diabetologiczny (PolReD)

The aim of this project is to create a registry of diabetic patients, containing a detailed clinical profile of each patient, along with omics data, which will be analyzed using artificial intelligence algorithms, and their results will be implemented in the form of new recommendations of care for high-risk patients and those already suffering from diabetes.

The study will be conducted prospectively. The project participants will be patients with diabetes, patients at high risk of developing diabetes and a control group of normoglycemic patients who will participate in study visits at the Clinical Research Center of the Medical University of Bialystok.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this project is to create a registry of patients at risk of developing diabetes or already diagnosed with diabetes, containing a detailed clinical profile of each patient, along with omics data, which will be analyzed using artificial intelligence algorithms, and their results will be implemented in the form of new recommendations of care for high-risk patients and those already suffering from diabetes.

The study will be conducted prospectively. The project participants will be patients with diabetes, patients at high risk of developing diabetes and a control group of normoglycemic patients who will participate in study visits at the Clinical Research Center of the Medical University of Bialystok.

As part of the project, each patient will participate in one visit at the research center. During the visit, each patient will undergo a detailed medical interview regarding the current health condition, the course of previously diagnosed diseases, family history, physical activity and diet. In addition, venous blood will be taken for each patient, from which the basic metabolic parameters will be determined (including glucose, lipid profile, HbA1c, AST, ALT, GGTP, electrolytes, blood count with smear, presence of antibodies against beta-cell antigens, TSH, ACTH) and omics analyzes will be performed (including genotyping and sequencing of DNA, transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics and lipidomics). Additionally, from each patient, saliva, urine, stool sample, and skin and nasal swabs to assess the microbiome will be collected. Each patient will also receive a detailed body composition analysis using bioimpedance and densitometry (DXA) and grip strength analysis. Non-diabetic patients will also undergo an oral glucose load test (OGTT).

In addition, patients who give additional consent will be able to participate in additional visits, including abdominal MR imaging with the assessment of liver steatosis, a biopsy of the vastus lateralis muscle, cardio-pulmonary exercise test, metabolic clamp (euglycemic - hyperinsulinemic) and glycemia assessment using the continuous glucose monitoring system ( CGM).

As part of the project, we plan for follow-up each participant with re-visits in the study centre every five years, covering exactly the same schedule of visits as the patient will make the first time.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes and Obesity, run by Medical University of Bialystok at 1 site in Poland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lukasz Szczerbinski, MD, PhD (+48858318150, lukasz.szczerbinski@umb.edu.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

HbA1c (time frame: every 5 years). The study lists 19 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Mar 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
