Trial summary

In a previous study, the investigators established the dosage of foetal glycated hemoglobin (FGH). It represents the mean of blood sugar 4-6 before the delivery. The investigators also compared the FGH of newborn of women with and without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and determined that newborn of women with… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Reevaluation of the Glycemic Objectives of Women With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

In a previous study, the investigators established the dosage of foetal glycated hemoglobin (FGH). It represents the mean of blood sugar 4-6 before the delivery. The investigators also compared the FGH of newborn of women with and without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and determined that newborn of women with GDM had significantly higher FGH that newborn of women without GDM.

In this study, the investigators want to compare the FGH of newborn of GDM women randomized to a group reaching the Canadian Diabetes Association recommended blood glucose objectives treatment (fasting: 5.3 mmol/L and 2-hour after meals: 6.7 mmol/L) to a group reaching lower blood glucose objectives (fasting: 4.8 mmol/L and 2-hour after meals: 5.9 mmol/L)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Normal glycemic controlProcedure or surgery

    Use diet, physical exercise of insulins to reach normal glycemic control.

  • Low glycemic controlProcedure or surgery

    Use diet, physical exercise of insulins to reach low glycemic control.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus, run by Université de Sherbrooke at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 stopped early (reason given: very difficult recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Foetal glycated hemoglobin (time frame: At delivery). 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.

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 3 May 2018.
