  • Automated Insulin for Management of Intrapartum Glycemia

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    The goal of this clinical trial is learn if automated insulin delivery (AID) systems can be used for glucose management during labor/delivery for pregnant people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The main questions this study aims to answer are - What are the neonatal glycemic outcomes with use of AID systems during labor/delivery? - Do patients report higher birth satisfaction with use of AID systems during labor/delivery? - Are glycemic parameters like time-in-range (TIR) better with use of AID systems during labor/delivery? Researchers will compare AID systems to intravenous (IV) insulin (the current standard of care for glucose management during labor/delivery) by randomly assigning participants to one or the other.

  • DECIDE: A Comparative Effectiveness Trial of Metformin Versus Insulin for the Treatment of Gestational Diabetes

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    This is a non-inferiority patient-centered and pragmatic comparative-effectiveness pregnancy randomized controlled trial (RCT) with postpartum maternal and child follow-up through 2 years of 1,572 individuals with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) randomized to oral metformin versus injectable insulin. This study will determine if metformin is not inferior to insulin in reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes, is comparably safe for exposed individuals and children, and if patient-reported factors, including facilitators of and barriers to use, differ between metformin and insulin. A total of 1,572 pregnant individuals with GDM who need pharmacotherapy will be recruited at 20 U.S. sites using consistent treatment criteria to metformin versus insulin. Participants and their children will be followed through delivery to two years postpartum.
