The ReCET Study is evaluating a non-surgical, same day procedure that may help people with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar levels.
You may be able to join the study if you meet the following requirements:
22-70 years of age
Not using insulin
Taking 2 to 4 blood sugar control medications
Diagnosis of
type 2 diabetes for at least 6 months
Other study requirements will apply. If you choose to participate, the study doctors will provide more information.
Participation in a clinical study is voluntary. You can ask any questions you have and may leave the study at any time, for any reason.
The ReCET Procedure is a non-surgical, investigational treatment designed to reduce blood sugar levels and improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes. During the procedure, a doctor introduces a small camera through the mouth to place a specialized device (catheter) in the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). The catheter then delivers highly controlled electric energy to the lining of the duodenum. This energy triggers the body’s natural process to regenerate healthy cells that can help control blood sugar levels. The camera and catheter are then removed, and nothing is left inside the body.
Following routine observation, the patient can return home the same day and resume normal activities shortly after.
Investigational means the ReCET™ System can only be used in clinical research studies. Use outside these studies is not approved by regulatory authorities like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia.

Take the Pre-ScreenerType 2 diabetes (T2D) currently impacts over 400 million people worldwide. People with type 2 diabetes can have difficulty managing their blood sugar levels. This can be damaging to the body and cause other serious health issues.
Living with type 2 diabetes can be challenging. The ReCET Procedure being offered in this study is designed to reduce blood sugar levels and may help get your diabetes under control.
Here are some common questions and answers about study participation.
Clinical research studies, or trials, help scientists and doctors explore whether a medical strategy, device, or medication is safe and effective for people. Before any device or medication can be approved and made available to the public, it must go through several phases of clinical research.
The Informed Consent Form contains information about the study, including study goals, how long the study will last, benefits and risks, and the tests and procedures you will receive. Before enrolling in a clinical trial, you must sign an Informed Consent Form.
Study participation usually involves visiting a clinic regularly, taking or receiving an investigational medicine or therapy, and having assessments to monitor your health. You can still see your regular doctor, but you should let them know that you are participating in a study.
Participation in clinical research studies is your choice, and you may stop at any time.
There is no cost to participants for care provided as part of the study. A stipend (or reimbursement) for study-related expenses will also be provided.
