Glyburide and Metformin for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM)
Glyburide and Metformin for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

This is a pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study evaluating glyburide, metformin, and combination treatment for gestational diabetes mellitus.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common complication of pregnancy. Multiple treatment regimens are currently used for the management of GDM. Following failure of diet therapy, insulin, glyburide and metformin are all used in the treatment of GDM with the oral medications providing comparable outcomes with insulin but easier route of administration and schedule. The proposed work will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of glyburide and metformin alone and in combination in order to lay the foundation in establishing dosage and response information that could be utilized in designing a phase III randomized trial that will ultimately evaluate GDM treatment optimization.
Interventional
Phase 1
Phase 2
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
  • Drug: Glyburide
    Women with GDM who require treatment will be given glyburide 2.5 mg. Medication will be given at least twice daily and equal doses will be given for each dosing time for the 3 days prior to the pharmacokinetic study day.
  • Drug: Metformin
    Women with GDM requiring treatment will be given metformin 500 mg. Medication will be administered at least twice daily and equal doses will be given for each dosing time for the 3 days prior to the pharmacokinetic study day.
  • Drug: Glyburide-Metformin combination
    Women with GDM requiring treatment will be given glyburide 2.5 mg with metformin 500 mg. Medications will be administered at least twice daily and equal doses will be given for each dosing time 3 days prior to the pharmacokinetic study day.
  • Active Comparator: GDM Subjects
    Women with GDM requiring treatment
    Interventions:
    • Drug: Glyburide
    • Drug: Metformin
    • Drug: Glyburide-Metformin combination
  • No Intervention: Non-pregnant Type 2 Diabetes Milletus Subjects
    Non-pregnant women with Type 2 diabetes mellitus who plan to use metformin treatment
  • No Intervention: Healthy Pregnant Women
    Healthy pregnant women with normal 1-hour glucose tolerance test
