Summary

This trial is testing an investigational digital therapeutic intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes improve their glycemic control.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with type 2 diabetes who can use an Android or iPhone, speak and read English, are willing to check their blood sugar regularly using the app, and have a recent HbA1c level over 7.01%. It's not for those with severe memory loss conditions, terminal illnesses with less than a year of life expectancy, or those on certain insulin treatments.
What is being tested?
The study tests BT-001, a digital tool designed to help manage blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants will be randomly assigned to either use this new app or a control mobile application and will be openly followed up after the initial phase.
What are the potential side effects?
Since BT-001 is a digital therapeutic intervention focused on behavior change rather than medication, it may not have traditional side effects but could include stress due to frequent monitoring or frustration if technical issues occur.
