Intensive Management for Gestational Diabetes

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a randomized clinical pilot trial designed to assess the feasibility of randomizing obese women with GDM to lower glycemic thresholds compared to standard care. Maternal and cord blood metabolic profiles, neonatal body composition, and maternal sleep quality and duration will also be compared between groups.

Clinical Trial Description

The investigators will randomize 60 obese pregnant women with a new diagnosis of gestational diabetes using the Carpenter-Coustan criteria in a 1:1 fashion to either standard care or intensive therapy. Subjects will be randomized to either standard care or intensive therapy at the first study visit, which will occur between 12-32 weeks of gestation after they have completed their gestational diabetes testing. Neither patients nor their providers will be blinded to patient study group. All women will receive standard nutritional counseling at the time of diagnosis, and they will also be treated with either glyburide or insulin as dictated by standard care. Women will return for a second study visit between 32-36 weeks of gestation to assess the impact of their glycemic target groups on overall glycemic control. The investigators will also collect information on the type and dose of each medication required to maintain glycemic control in women randomized to either standard care or intensive therapy.

In addition to standard glucose monitoring 4x/day (fasting and one-hour post breakfast, lunch, and dinner), the investigators will utilize blinded continuous glucose monitors (iPro, Medtronic) at each study visit. Because women with GDM are receiving active management of their blood sugars and dietary counseling, the investigators will assess CGM for 5 consecutive days both at study enrollment and again between 32-36 weeks. Study participants will complete food diaries during their CGM monitoring to correlate food intake with glycemic variation. The investigators will also compare maternal and cord blood metabolic profiles, neonatal body composition, and maternal sleep quality and duration between groups. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
