      Nutrition and Exercise for Pregnancy Weight Gain

      London, Ontario
      Interventions that target excessive gestational weight gain (EGWG) with nutrition and exercise behavior change struggle with low program adherence. The investigators recently examined adherence in a randomized controlled trial to a previously established lifestyle program called the Nutrition and Exercise Lifestyle Intervention Program (NELIP) and found that those individuals with high adherence to the program were more likely to prevent EGWG. Perhaps offering participants a choice to intervention strategies may improve adherence. The current research question is: What impact does participant choice have on adherence to the introduction of nutrition and exercise components during 3 intervention strategies offered to pregnant individuals compared to no choice and does choice maintain pregnancy health outcomes? The strategies are: Group A - introducing both the nutrition and exercise components simultaneous at baseline (12-18 weeks of pregnancy) that is followed to delivery (NELIP); Group B - introducing the nutrition component first and then at 25 weeks adding the exercise component; or Group C - starting with the exercise component first, followed with introducing the nutrition component at 25 weeks. Both Groups B and C follow the full NELIP from 25 weeks to delivery (final intervention measures will occur at 34-36 weeks gestation). Follow-up will occur at birth (6-18 hours), 2, 6 and 12 months post delivery.

      Time-Restricted Eating for Pregnancy with Obesity

      Chicago, Illinois
      In the United States, severe obesity (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 40.0 kg/m2) affects approximately 10% of females of reproductive age . Severe obesity is a significant predictor of adverse perinatal outcomes including gestational diabetes mellitus, pre-eclampsia, premature birth, and at its most severe, fetal death, birth defects and a three-fold greater risk of maternal mortality. Observational studies suggest weight maintenance and even modest body fat loss and altering the maternal metabolic milieu (availability of glucose and lipids) in the gestational period may be important to reducing perinatal health risks among pregnant females with severe obesity. The proposed research aims to assess time-restricted eating in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy to explore the effects on maternal weight, and perinatal health outcomes compared to standard clinical care.

      HMZ 2.0 Intervention for Pregnancy Weight Management

      University Park, Pennsylvania
      The goal of this clinical trial is to see if the enhanced HMZ 2.0 intervention with new control system/digital platform to regulate gestational weight gain (GWG) and impact maternal-infant outcomes while collecting implementation data works and can be given to other pregnant women in various settings. The question this study aims to answer are: 1. Does the new intervention manage GWG? 2. Does the new intervention have any influence on sleep and eating behaviors and infant outcomes. 3. Does the new platform and other data collected help inform how well the research and information can be used in health care settings? 144 pregnant women with overweight/obesity will be randomized to either the HMZ 2.0 intervention or attention control groups from \~8-36 weeks gestation. All participants will be asked to: 1. Weight themselves and wear an activity monitor each day over the study. 2. Complete online surveys at either a weekly or monthly level about their thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors on GWG, physical activity, eating behaviors, sleep, their anxiety, depression, and stress. 3. Attend weekly sessions with a registered dietician. The weekly sessions will differ based on intervention group. The HMZ 2.0 intervention group will receive education, create and follow goal-setting and action plans, self-monitor their behaviors, and receive feature evidence and fetal growth facts. Education, goals, and self-monitoring will focus on GWG, physical activity, eating behaviors, sleep, self-regulating behaviors and emotions, and preparing for labor/delivery and postpartum. The attention control group will receive weekly sessions on preparing for labor/delivery and benefits of behavioral pain management strategies (e.g., mindfulness-based relaxation, imagery, music, massage, deep-breathing) to help with pain after childbirth without medicine.

      Cessation Interventions for Dual Use of Cigarettes and E-Cigarettes During Pregnancy

      Buffalo, New York
      We propose a randomized controlled trial to develop and evaluate a cessation program with two different strategies for dual users during pregnancy. We plan to enroll 45 pregnant mothers (≤20 gestational weeks) with low household incomes from the Western NY region. To be eligible, they must be currently dual using CCs and nicotine-containing ECs. These mothers will be randomized into one of three groups: 1) simultaneous cessation intervention group (N=15), 2) stepwise cessation intervention group (N=15), and 3) control group (N=15). We hypothesize that nicotine abstinence rates at 8 weeks after randomization will be higher in the intervention groups than in the control group.

      NDPP-NextGen for Diabetes Risk Reduction

      Winston-Salem, North Carolina
      The goal of this clinical trial is to test an enhanced version of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP-NextGen) that is tailored to young women in childbearing years. The investigators will recruit 360 women aged 18-39 years with overweight/obesity who are not currently pregnant, but likely to conceive within 24 months. Women will be randomized to NDPP-NextGen or a usual care control group. The NDPP-NextGen group will participate in the adapted NDPP online group class across 12 months, and the control group will get a packet of information about how to be healthy before, during and after pregnancy. The main goals of the study are: 1. to assess effects of NDPP-NextGen on pre-pregnancy blood sugar and early pregnancy BMI 2. to assess effects of NDPP-NextGen on weight gain and behavioral outcomes during pregnancy 3. to explore effects of NDPP-NextGen on infant's percentage of fat tissue at birth All participants will complete up to 4 research visits: baseline, conception, mid-pregnancy, and delivery. These visits will include: 1. Questionnaires about health, diet, activity, smoking, self-confidence, and depression 2. Body size measurements 3. Fasted blood draws Participants will also be asked to weigh themselves weekly using home scales that are connected to the research database. At the delivery visit, investigators will measure the baby's body size and collect a cord blood sample.

      Health Coaching to Prevent Excessive Weight Gain during Pregnancy

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Healthy for Two, Healthy for You (H42/H4U) is an innovative evidence-based pregnancy/postpartum health coach intervention that is remotely-delivered (phone coaching using motivational interviewing, web-based platform, mobile phone behavioral tracking). The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to embed H42/H4U into Johns Hopkins prenatal care clinics that serve a racially and economically diverse population, leveraging existing staff as trained health coaches to test its effectiveness and implementation. The investigators hypothesize that women in the H42/H4U arm will have lower gestational weight gain and lower rates of gestational diabetes, without an increase in low birth weight infants, and that implementation into the investigators' prenatal care clinics will be feasible and scalable.

      Activity Intervention for Pregnancy Stress

      Chapel Hill, North Carolina
      Purpose: The investigators hypothesize that a simple, personalized, smartphone-based activity intervention using a wrist-based activity tracker will help high risk pregnant women reduce their stress during pregnancy. Participants: Pregnant women enrolled in prenatal care at the University of North Carolina who have a documented moderate or high level of perceived stress ( ≥ 14) and are at high risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes due to body mass index of ≥ 30 kg/m2 or history of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, or preterm birth \<37 weeks' in a prior pregnancy. Procedures: Women meeting inclusion criteria will be recruited through the University of North Carolina prenatal care clinics. They will be contacted for possible participation at regularly scheduled prenatal visits and/or ultrasound. They may also be contacted for possible participation by remote methods (e.g., Telehealth). Women who are enrolled will complete validated dietary, stress, sleep, and body image questionnaires. Enrolled women will then be randomized to receive standard obstetrical care or enhanced counseling. All participants will receive a wrist-based activity tracker. Maternal blood sample for biochemical markers of stress and gene expression will be obtained at the initial visit; a followup blood sample will be obtained later in pregnancy, and a small portion of the placenta saved at delivery. Maternal and neonatal outcomes will be compared between groups.

      Delivering HOPE for Gestational Weight Gain

      Corning, Arkansas
      The overarching research question is: "Does the provision of healthy food (Delivering HOPE) during pregnancy reduce the proportion of women who experience excessive gestational weight gain compared with enhanced standard of care (ESoC)?" To answer this question, the investigators will conduct a large multi-site randomized controlled trial with 1,440 women. Women will be randomized to either the Delivering HOPE arm or the ESoC arm, with approximately 720 participants per arm. Participants randomized to the ESoC arm will receive the standard clinical protocol for nutritional and gestational weight gain counseling recommended for all pregnant women, WIC and SNAP enrollment assistance, referrals to safety net food organizations.Those randomized to the Delivering HOPE arm will be provided the same nutritional and gestational weight gain counseling, WIC and SNAP assistance, and food referrals, as well as a total of $1000/$2000/$3000 (depending on household size) during pregnancy to be used specifically for the purchase of healthy foods recommended in the nutritional counseling. Data for the primary outcome (pre-pregnancy weight and weight at delivery) will be collected from birth records.

      Mobile Tech & Peer Health Coaching for Pregnant Black Teens

      Jackson, Mississippi
      The proposed multicomponent digital health intervention has the potential to significantly impact the trajectory of maternal health in a rural, pregnant, Black adolescent population with the highest risks for cardiometabolic diseases worldwide. The proposed implementation strategy leverages mobile technologies which are ubiquitous across the socioeconomic gradient and proposes to train young adult WIC moms to deliver peer health coaching in a telehealth setting to address social barriers and support behavior change in pregnant, Black adolescent WIC clients in the Mississippi Delta - a rural region where the population is more than two-thirds percent Black and the teen birth rate is the highest in the United States. This is a scalable and sustainable approach to enhance WIC services and improve WIC's impact on population health and cardiometabolic health disparities in Black women.

      Fitbit Devices for Pregnancy Weight Control

      Tucson, Arizona
      There are set guidelines for weight gain developed by the Institute of Medicine in pregnancy but about three quarters of women gain an inappropriate weight during pregnancy. Many studies have assessed ways to decrease weight gain in these women who gain excess weight, usually through a combination of diet and exercise. Still, often these interventions are difficult to implement, expensive, or have low acceptability. Wearable Fitbit devices have been on the market for years and slowly becoming more inexpensive and easier to use. Previous studies on non-pregnant women have shown that using the device can help reduce weight gain. In addition, small studies in pregnant women have shown they are accurate for measuring steps and have high acceptability and retention rates. The ability of the Fitbit to assess metrics of sleep including sleep duration and quality will also be assessed. This project aims to provide overweight and obese pregnant women at the beginning of their pregnancy with the Fitbit device and with regular follow-up to assess if there is effectiveness in increasing the rate of women who meet weight gain guidelines compared to women without the device along with measuring aspects of sleep.

      Interactive Obesity Treatment for Pregnancy

      Davis, California
      Despite the negative consequences to maternal-child health from women gaining too much weight during pregnancy, up to 62% of overweight and obese women gain more pregnancy weight than is recommended. This project will establish the efficacy of Goals for Reaching Optimal Wellness (GROWell), an mHealth tool for achieving appropriate pregnancy weight gain and promoting postpartum weight loss among women who enter pregnancy overweight or obese. GROWell will fill a gap in research and clinical care by providing a validated, standalone mHealth tool for weight control during pregnancy and postpartum, which is a currently lacking resource.

      Mediterranean Diet for Obesity in Pregnancy

      Charlotte, North Carolina
      The purpose of this research is to compare two healthy diet styles during pregnancy. Sixty pregnant women between 8 and 16 weeks will participate. Participates will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to either receive routine healthy diet advice and counseling, or to receive advice and counseling for the Mediterranean style diet. Our current routine healthy diet program follows the recommendations provided by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). It recommends the consumption of grains, fruits, vegetables, protein foods, and dairy foods during pregnancy. The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is a well-known healthy diet that consists of a large amount of plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans, and nuts with olive oil as the principal source of fat. Dairy, fish, and poultry are consumed in moderation and red meat only eaten occasionally. Throughout their pregnancy, participants will receive free food and be assessed to determine how will they are following to the diet plan they were randomized to.

      Why Other Patients Applied

      "I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

      "My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

      "I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Weight Gain During Pregnancy clinical trials pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Weight Gain During Pregnancy clinical trials work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Weight Gain During Pregnancy trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Weight Gain During Pregnancy is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Weight Gain During Pregnancy medical study?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Weight Gain During Pregnancy clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Cessation Interventions for Dual Use of Cigarettes and E-Cigarettes During Pregnancy, Delivering HOPE for Gestational Weight Gain and Food Provision for Gestational Weight Gain to the Power online platform.
