Exenatide trials recruiting now

6 registrations that name exenatide as a study arm and are recruiting or about to, as ClinicalTrials.gov listed them on Oct 20, 2026. Read each listing for its full criteria and current status.

Kymata never assesses eligibility. Each listing names its own criteria; only its study team can say whether someone can join. Trial doses are given under the trial's monitoring and are not a schedule for anyone outside it.

  • Pregnant women (singleton)
  • Gestational diabetes not requiring medical therapy
  • Between 18 and 50 years of age
  • Able to give written informed consent

The exclusion criteria are on the listing.

What it tests, as registered

Exenatide

Registered summary

This study is being done to study how exenatide, an FDA-approved drug that lowers blood sugar in non-pregnant patients with type II diabetes, works in pregnant women. To do this, the investigators will study the drug's pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug; specifically, how quickly your body breaks down and excretes exenatide) and pharmacodynamics (what the drug does to the body; specifically, how effectively exenatide helps the participants' pancreas secrete insulin and how well it controls blood sugar after a meal). The full summary is on the listing.

What it tests, as registered

Exenatide; Non-GLP-1 RA based glucose lowering drugs

Registered summary

EXCEED is a non-interventional post-authorisation safety study aiming to assess the risk of developing pancreatic cancer among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who initiated exenatide compared to those who initiated other non-glucagon like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) based glucose lowering drugs (GLDs). Study data will be collected from secondary data sources across 7 European countries. The study will be conducted as a multi-country, long-term, retrospective, observational database study.

The exclusion criteria are on the listing.

What it tests, as registered

GLP-1 receptor agonist; SGLT2 inhibitor; Tirzepatide; Other drugs

Registered summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the progressive damage to kidney function, associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke or myocardial infarct, particularly in the most severe stages of CKD, in which the patient requires dialysis. Several risk factors are reported for CKD, such as diabetes mellitus, obesity and hypertension. One of the most increasingly recognized risk factors is the fat tissue malfunction, known as adiposopathy. The full summary is on the listing.

3 more inclusion criteria and the exclusion criteria are on the listing.

What it tests, as registered

GLP-1 receptor agonist

Registered summary

Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), a result of neurovascular cell dysfunction, is a major cause of stroke, dementia and mobility problems worldwide. Vascular risk factor control alone may not be sufficient to prevent the development of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) in patients with cSVD according to previous clinical trials. The presence of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) in cerebral microglia may reveal a potential therapeutic target for prevention of cSVD progression and its disabling clinical outcomes.
