About this study

Official title: Program for the Prevention of Diabetes Mellitus Development in Women Who Had Already Experienced A Gestational Diabetes. Evaluation of the Efficacy of the Life-style Modification and the Life-style Modification in Conjunction With Metformin, in the Prevention of Diabetes Mellitus Development in a Population of Women Who Had Expired a Gestational Diabetes - a Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind Study.

Gestational diabetes is also a strong risk factor for the development of diabetes mellitus at a later stage of life in previous GDM woman. Among all the risk factors of diabetes mellitus, the experience of gestational diabetes is the strongest one. The incidence of various forms of diabetes in this group balances from 10 to 60% over a period from 2 to 10 years.

The aim of this study is a comparison of the efficacy of life style modification and life style modification in conjunction with metformin administration, in a population of women, who had already experienced gestational diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most frequent metabolic disorders occurring during pregnancy that complicates both, the course of pregnancy and the delivery and is also responsible for many fetal complications. Gestational diabetes is also a strong risk factor for the development of diabetes mellitus at a later stage of life in previous GDM woman. Among all the risk factors of diabetes mellitus, the experience of gestational diabetes is the strongest one. The incidence of various forms of diabetes in this group balances from 10 to 60% over a period from 2 to 10 years.

Presently, in the literature, there are described new, more efficient methods of diabetes prevention in groups with a high risk of this disorder, which involve both, a modification of the life style and pharmacotherapy. The use of metformin in patients with a impaired glucose tolerance, resulted in a ca. 30% reduction of the diabetes incidence rate.

The aim of this study is a comparison of the efficacy of life style modification and life style modification in conjunction with metformin administration, in a population of women, who had already experienced gestational diabetes.

A Phase 4 study testing Metformin and Lifestyle intervention - diet, physical activity in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Medical University of Lodz.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
