About this study

Official title: Oral Antidiabetic Agents on Gestational Diabetes: Modulating Effect on Fetal Growth - a Clinical Randomized Trial

The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of oral treatment with glyburide and metformin controlling excessive fetal growth in women with gestational diabetes, using insulin as a ransom on no response to oral treatment .

It is randomized with women who seek care at the Outpatient Diabetes in Pregnancy in our hospital trial Eligible women between 18 - 45anos diagnosed with gestational diabetes , according to the WHO criteria , ratified the public network for prenatal care at the Clinic for Diabetes and Pregnancy HCPA .

Women with singleton pregnancy and gestational age not exceeding 30 weeks at the time of enrollment.

Pregnant women with indication for pharmacological treatment will be invited to randomization to use of oral , glyburide or metformin antidiabetic .

At regular intervals of 2 - 3 weeks fetal growth will be measured with obstetric ultrasonography , until birth.

The primary outcomes will be :

( 1 ) weight and gestational age at birth and the index of large for gestational age fetuses ( ≥ 90th percentile for gestational age ) ( 2 ) the use of insulin to achieve glycemic targets according to fetal growth , as an indirect measure of the inefficiency of oral medications .

Read the detailed description

The procedures for monitoring metabolic and obstetrical control , assessments of fetal well -being and indications for interruption are usually adopted in the Outpatient Diabetes and Pregnancy of the institution.

  • Patients will be followed since their first appointment in our hospital, around the 20th week of pregnancy- until 8 weeks after labor and delivery. That being said, patients will be followed by an average of 28 weeks.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Maria Lucia R Oppermann, PhD (55 51 33598117, maluopp@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

fetal growth (time frame: up to 9 months). 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.
