NCT ID NCT04949633
First seen Jan 08, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study looks at two ways to start labor in pregnant women whose cervix hasn't softened enough after 24 hours of preparation. One method uses the hormone oxytocin, the other uses a different hormone called prostaglandin. The goal is to see which approach leads to fewer C-sections and shorter labor, while keeping mothers and babies safe. About 1,500 women will take part across multiple hospitals in France.
