What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This pilot study will enroll 150 pregnant individuals to see if a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can accurately diagnose gestational diabetes. Participants will wear a small sensor on their arm that measures blood sugar continuously. The results will be compared to the standard glucose tolerance test. If the CGM proves reliable, it could offer a more convenient alternative for diagnosis.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
continuous glucose monitor (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a simpler, less burdensome way to diagnose gestational diabetes using a wearable sensor instead of multiple blood draws.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study, so results may not be definitive. The device might not match the accuracy of the standard glucose tolerance test.

Expected to finish

Apr 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
