About this study
The goal of this clinical study is to determine the impact of starting the use of the FreeStyle Libre 2 glucose monitoring system, over a three month period, on HbA1c in adults with type 2 diabetes treated with a basal insulin regimen.
Read the detailed description
This is a post-market, multi-centre, prospective, interventional single arm study in Italy.
Participants will use the FreeStyle Libre 2 Flash Glucose Monitoring System, according to the labelling, to monitor their glucose for approximately 3 months. Additional therapies may be introduced, if clinically indicated, based on review of the participant's clinical data and in line with national guidance.
HbA1c will be tested at the start and end of the study for primary endpoint analysis.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing FreeStyle Libre 2 Flash Glucose Monitoring System in people with Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Insulin, run by Abbott Diabetes Care at 8 sites in Italy.
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 5 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 8 sites in Italy. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
HbA1c (time frame: 3 months). 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 23 Dec 2025.
