Description of intervention(s) / exposure
1-delayed GDM care until 24-28 weeks gestation if the repeat oral glucose tolerance test at that time still confirms GDM

2-GDM care involves standard management through the local diabetes service: this is identical to local GDM management in all respects including 1x2 hour education session, at least one dietetic session, take home information leaflets reflecting the education session content, food diary, self management including blood glucose monitoring, healthy eating and physical activity, regular clinic attendance with review of blood glucose monitoring and weight, standard obstetric management, pharmacological treatment as directed by the diabetes service staff.

3-attendance at clinic and associated education sessions and therapy will be recorded

Key exclusion criteria
Existing diabetes, inability to give consent, twins or triplets (or more), major active medical disorders (eg psychiatric disease requiring antipsychotic medication, but excluding chronic hypertension), women without a GDM risk factor, women greater than or equal to 20 weeks gestation, women who have already attended for an OGTT.

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
For women to be randomised, the Central Study Coordinating team member will receive pathology results and enter these in the bespoke TOBOGM Randomiser.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Randomisation numbers will be allocated, independently, stratified by site, to one of the 2 intervention groups, using an electronic randomiser for 2 strata, based on 24-28 week OGTT criteria:
*lower risk glucose values (fasting 5.1-5.2 mmol/l or 1 hour 10.0-10.5 mmol/l or 2 hour 8.5-8.9 mmol/l) and
*higher risk glucose values (fasting 5.3-6.9 mmol/l or 1 hour greater than or equal to 10.6 mmol/l or 2 hour 9.0-11.0 mmol/l).

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Analyses will be by intention to treat with a per protocol sensitivity analysis. Data analysis will involve computations of Fisher’s exact tests (for dichotomous outcome measures), Chi-square tests (for categorical data with greater than or equal to 2 levels) and ANOVA (for continuous measures). Data will be described using 95% confidence intervals. A Statistical Analysis Plan will be drawn up to include a priori protocols for withdrawal, distributional transformations, outliers, methods for handling drop outs, any model assumptions including incorporation of covariates into analyses and handling of multiple comparisons.
Power calculations are 2 tailed, alpha 0.05, power 0.8, 1:1 case:control. TOBOGM is powered to detect a 6% difference between the treated and untreated ‘Booking GDM’ groups. This is because the trial is not a test of treatment vs no treatment of GDM, but of treatment <20 weeks vs deferral to 24-28 weeks gestation when women will be treated if GDM is then found. It is therefore proposed to use the difference between the metabolic composite for treated GDM women compared to normal control: 10% vs 4% hypoglycaemia/hyperbilirubinaemia.
There are three primary outcomes (PO1, PO2, and PO3). The study a priori significance level (alpha) is set at 0.05, and for the primary outcome analyses, we apply a gatekeeping testing strategy to assist in avoiding Type 1 errors. Specifically, if PO1 has p<0.05, then PO2 will be examined; next, if PO2 has p<0.05, then PO3 will be examined. This gatekeeper approach to the primary outcome was deemed as the most suitable method as it enables a clear focus on major adverse pregnancy outcomes.
