Fasting Versus Fed: Effect of Oral Intake Prior to the Glucose Tolerance Test in Pregnancy

NCT04547023 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

Studies suggest that the timing interval between oral intake and the 1-hour gestational diabetes screen may have a significant impact on gestational diabetes screening glucose levels. The investigators plan to conduct a prospective randomized trial comparing a 6-hour fast versus liberal oral intake within 2 hours prior to the glucose tolerance test in pregnancy in order to evaluate the effect of the fasting versus the fed state on routine gestational diabetes screening results.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04547023

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04547023 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 200 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Stanford University, which has 1,643 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 4 conditions, with Gestational Diabetes appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Fasting before gestational diabetes screen is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04547023 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include California. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
