NCT06782906 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Non-healthy eating habits and a lack of exercise contribute to prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Evening snacking is linked to abnormal weight gain in adults and healthy adolescents. Most adolescents do not get enough exercise. This study aims to look at the benefits of more exercise and stopping evening snacking in youth with prediabetes. The study lasts 8 weeks, and participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a standard of care group.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06782906
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06782906 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 80 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Baylor College of Medicine, which has 678 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Prediabetes appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which ≥10,000 daily steps (≥5 days/week) and stopping evening snacking is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06782906 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Texas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
