Summary

This is a nested multicenter prospective cohort conducted concurrently and in conjunction with the DECIDE two-arm, pragmatic non-inferiority comparative effectiveness Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) (NCT06445946) of metformin versus insulin among individuals with Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) requiring pharmacotherapy for glycemic control. Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)-derived glycemic metric in pregnancy and postpartum will be compared between individuals randomized to metformin versus insulin. In addition, the association between CGM metrics and adverse pregnancy outcomes will be examined. Finally, whether CGM metrics can accurately identify diabetes postpartum compared with an oral glucose tolerance test and hemoglobin A1c will be determined. A total of 300 (150 metformin, 150 insulin) pregnant individuals will be recruited with GDM who require pharmacotherapy to use a blinded CGM device (Dexcom, Inc, San Diego, CA) at two pregnancy (medication randomization, late third trimester) and three postpartum timepoints (delivery, \~6 weeks, and \~2 years).

Conditions

  • Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
  • Pregnancy, High Risk

Interventions

DEVICE

CGM device - Metformin group

Individuals randomized to metformin will be provided with a CGM device (Dexcom, Inc, San Diego, CA) to be worn for up to 10 days (minimum \>5 days) at two pregnancy (randomization to metformin or insulin, late third trimester \> 340/7 weeks) and three postpartum timepoints (immediately after delivery, \~6 weeks, and \~2 years).

DEVICE

CGM device - Insulin group

Individuals randomized to insulin will be provided with a CGM device (Dexcom, Inc, San Diego, CA) to be worn for up to 10 days (minimum \>5 days) at two pregnancy (randomization to metformin or insulin, late third trimester \> 340/7 weeks) and three postpartum timepoints (immediately after delivery, \~6 weeks, and \~2 years).
