About this study

Official title: Development and Application of a Novel Noninvasive Salivary 1,5-Anhydroglucitol Detection Technology in Diabetes Management

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical value of salivary 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) and assess a novel noninvasive detection approach in individuals with and without type 2 diabetes. Additionally, the study will examine the relationships of salivary 1,5-AG with serum 1,5-AG and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measures of short-term glycemic control and fluctuations.

Read the detailed description

Serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) is a marker of short-term glycemic status and is particularly sensitive to recent hyperglycemic excursions. Saliva offers a noninvasive and convenient alternative for repeated metabolic monitoring, but the clinical application of salivary 1,5-AG has been limited by challenges in detection accuracy and standardization. This study therefore aims to evaluate the clinical value of salivary 1,5-AG and a novel noninvasive detection approach. First, the study will assess salivary 1,5-AG levels and compare the novel detection approach with reference measurements. Second, it will evaluate the relationships of salivary 1,5-AG with serum 1,5-AG and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics to determine its potential for reflecting short-term glycemic fluctuations and glycemic control.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation Between Salivary 1,5-Anhydroglucitol and Glycemic Levels

    Salivary 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) will be measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry or enzymatic assay. Glycemic levels will be assessed by fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L), glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c, %), and glycated albumin (GA, %). Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients will be used to assess their correlations with salivary 1,5-AG.

    Measured: Screening

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation Between Salivary and Serum 1,5-Anhydroglucitol Levels

    Salivary 1,5-AG will be measured by LC-MS or enzymatic assay, and serum 1,5-AG will be measured by enzymatic assay. Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients will be calculated.

    Measured: Screening

  2. Correlation Between Salivary 1,5-Anhydroglucitol and Continuous Glucose Monitoring Metrics

    Salivary 1,5-AG will be measured by LC-MS or enzymatic assay. CGM metrics will include time in range (TIR), time in tight range (TITR), and time above range (TAR), expressed as percentages.

    Measured: One week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM), run by Shanghai 6th People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Aug 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.

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 Hang Su, MD (+86-021-64369181, suhang@shsmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation Between Salivary 1,5-Anhydroglucitol and Glycemic Levels (time frame: Screening). 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 25 Aug 2026.
