Clinical Trial Summary

This study will assess differences in patient preferences and glucose control between continuous glucose monitoring and standard glucose checks in pregnant patients with Type 2 Diabetes. 40 participants will be on study for approximately 182 days (26 weeks).

Description:

This pilot single site randomized control trial will compare the blood glucose control and participant satisfaction scores of continuous glucose monitoring vs standard glucose checks in pregnant women with a prior diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes. The study population will consist of 40 women who are less than 20 weeks pregnant at time of enrollment who have a pre-pregnancy diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes. Participants will be randomized to one of two treatment arms. - Arm 1: Placement of Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor for glucose monitoring for duration of pregnancy - Arm 2: Continuation of standard glucose finger sticks with placement of a blinded Dexcom Pro G6 continuous glucose sensor for two ten day periods (at enrollment and again at 28-32 weeks gestation) Participant accrual will occur over 18 months at 1 site. Participants will complete 3 study visits, all of which will be in conjunction with previously scheduled prenatal or diabetes visits: at the time of consent (less than 20 weeks gestation), 28-32 weeks gestation, and 2-6 weeks postpartum.. Surveys will be administered at each time point. At the final visit, patients will be asked for participate in a 2-5 minute directed interview as well. - Primary Objective - To examine the feasibility of completing a study to assess for differences in patient preferences and glucose control between continuous glucose monitoring and standard glucose checks in pregnant patients with Type 2 Diabetes. - Secondary Objectives - To estimate the effect of continuous glucose monitoring devices placed prior to 20 weeks in pregnancy in patients with Type 2 diabetes on time in range, as measured between 28-32 weeks of pregnancy. - To assess patient satisfaction to continuous glucose monitoring during pregnancy - To estimate the effect of continuous glucose monitoring on the incidence of neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Feasibility: Number of Participants Who Complete the Study within 24 month time period	Completion of the study within the 24-month timeframe, including recruitment, randomization, retention, and completion of 36 out of 40 subjects will be a measure of how feasible the intervention is.	up to 24 months
Primary	Change in Qualitative Survey Answers to Assess Participant Thoughts and Experiences with Diabetes Management	Individualized postpartum interviews and qualitative surveys administered at each time point will be used to gather information about participants thoughts and experiences in both arms of the trial about their ability to manage diabetes in pregnancy. Interviews will be analyzed for theme and content.	at enrollment, 28-32 weeks gestation (up to 12 weeks on study), postpartum (up to 26 weeks on study)
Primary	Percentage of Time Where Blood Glucose is between 70-140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL)	The primary endpoint is the total time within range (blood glucose level 70-140 mg/dL). All CGM data will be extracted from the Dexcom server for analysis. This measure is used to determine if time in range (TIR) is a suitable clinical endpoint for a larger trial. TIR for both arms will be determined and 95% confidence intervals around the difference in means calculated. TIR will be considered suitable if the upper 95% confidence interval for the difference in means is greater than 5 units in favor of CGM.	up to 26 weeks
Secondary	Number of Participants with Cesarean Delivery		approximately 20 weeks on study (at time of delivery)
Secondary	Change in hemoglobin A1c (percentage) from initiation to third trimester		baseline (approximately 20 weeks gestation), up to 12 weeks on study (up to 32 weeks gestation)
Secondary	Percentage of time spent in hyperglycemic range	Hyperglycemic range is considered greater than 140 mg/dL	up to 26 weeks
Secondary	Percentage of time spent in hypoglycemic range	Hypoglycemic range is considered less than 70 mg/dL.	up to 26 weeks
Secondary	Rates of gestational hypertension	Gestational hypertension is defined as systolic blood pressure 140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure 90 mg Hg on two occasions at least 4 hours apart.	up to approximately 20 weeks on study
Secondary	Rates of preeclampsia	Gestational hypertension plus either new-onset proteinuria [300 mg/24 hours, protein:creatinine 0.3 mg/dL], thrombocytopenia [platelet count<100,000/uL], elevated Aspartate transaminase or alanine transaminase [>2 upper limit of normal], renal insufficiency [serum creatinine>1.1 mg/dL or an unexplained doubling of creatinine], pulmonary edema, or cerebral or visual symptoms.	up to approximately 20 weeks on study
