About this study
This study is a single-arm, self-control, single-center study to investigate the molecular mechanism under exercise improving metabolism of patients with prediabetes. 40 overweight/obese patients with prediabetes will be recruited in this study and instructed to participate in an 8-week exercise program. We aim to investigate 1) the changes of clinical phenotypes such as body weight, body fat, laboratory values, and resting energy expenditure before and after exercise 2) the changes of peripheral blood mononuclear cell by single cell sequencing 3) search for potential biomarkers of exercise in improving metabolism through multi-omics integrated analysis of single-cell transcriptome, phenomics, metabolomics, etc.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
exercise interventionBehavioural
Patients will participate in an 8-week supervised aerobic exercise program, the intensity was set at the moderate to vigorous intensity (≥150mins/week exercise on the treadmill).
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| exercise intervention | Experimental | Not described Receives: Behavioral: exercise intervention |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing exercise intervention in people with Prediabetes, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2026. 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 China. 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.

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 Ying Chen (86+19542806360, chen.ying4@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Changes of peripheral blood CD45+ cells detected by single cell sequencing (time frame: From enrollment to the end of exercise intervention at 8 weeks). 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 12 Mar 2026.
