Trial summary

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is defined by abnormal glucose tolerance during gestation. This complication occurs in 4-10% and is associated with fetal complications and macrosomia. In addition, women with GDM have an increased risk to develop type 2 diabetes after delivery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: IMAGE (Metabolic Risk During Gestation) : Prospective Study of Women With Gestational Diabetes

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is defined by abnormal glucose tolerance during gestation. This complication occurs in 4-10% and is associated with fetal complications and macrosomia. In addition, women with GDM have an increased risk to develop type 2 diabetes after delivery. Despite recommendations, it is difficult to follow-up all women with GDM during the postpartum period due to high numbers of subjects that exceed usual healthcare resources. It is therefore necessary to focus clinical attention toward women at high risk of type 2 diabetes in order to set adequate preventive strategies.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Metabolic index value

    The primary objective relies on Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves of metabolic index values using peripheral markers during gestation : C-Reactive Protein ultrasensitive (CRPus), malonaldehyde (MDA) and adiponectin (index = (CRP + MDA)/adiponectin) to detect an abnormal glucose tolerance at 3 months (+/- 15 days) after delivery (M3) during a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (T0>110mg/dl and/or T120 >145mg/dl). The rationale for the index relies on lower adiponectin values high CRPus levels and MDA values during insulin resistance chronic inflammatory status and oxidative stress.

    Measured: 3 months after delivery (+/- 15 days)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Prevalence of abnormal glucose tolerance in women with GDM

    Measured: 3 months (+/- 15 days) following delivery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sampling and OGTT in people with Gestational Diabetes, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 7 sites in France.

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 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Metabolic index value (time frame: 3 months after delivery (+/- 15 days)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02133729, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Dec 2025.
