Tight blood sugar targets in pregnant women with gestational diabetes
This study compares a tighter blood sugar goal versus a standard goal in pregnant people with gestational diabetes who are also overweight or obese. It may help find whether stricter blood sugar control improves pregnancy outcomes.

Exenatide study in pregnancy-related diabetes without medicines
This trial studies how exenatide affects blood sugar in pregnant people with gestational diabetes who do not need medication yet. The goal is to understand how the medicine works in the body during pregnancy, which may help improve future treatment decisions.

CGM for early detection of high blood sugar in pregnancy

What taking part in a gestational diabetes study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
