Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare intravenous (IV) fluids in pediatric patients with migraine. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does a large amount of fluids (bolus) improve pain - Does a large amount of fluids (bolus) reduce admissions to the hospital for migraine Participants will be asked to report their pain and have vital signs checked every 30 minutes for two hours. Researchers will compare a large amount of fluids (bolus) to a small amount (half maintenance) to see if there is a difference in pain improvement.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how a migraine prevention medicine works for people who have migraines/headaches with their menstrual period. The study includes people ages 18 to 45 who have been diagnosed with migraine and who have a migraine with their menstrual period or those who have migraines with their menstrual period and at other times of the month as well. The main question the study aims to answer are: • Does fremanazemab, an injectable calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway targeting therapy, decrease migraines associated with menstruation? Participants will - have an evaluation and examination by a headache specialist physician - will receive the study medicine or inactive substitute every three months for two treatments - fill out diaries about their migraines - have tests on saliva to measure hormone levels Researchers will compare the people who get the medicine to those who get the inactive substitute to see if there are differences in response.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treating migraine in the acute phase by applying the acute mode (program 1) of Elexir (trigeminal nerve electrical stimulator) to patients with migraine.
This study will unpack the behavioral intervention for migraine and determine the optimum combinations. In addition, the study will test preference and self-selection effects during the trial.
Migraine is a leading cause of disability with an estimated prevalence of 12% in Europe. The headache field witnessed a breakthrough since the introduction of specific preventive therapies which proved effective and well tolerated, namely the monoclonal antibodies directed against the Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) pathway (mAbs). Their mechanism of action is still debated. Several Authors claimed that, despite the site of action is peripheral (namely outside of the blood brain barrier), the resulting action may take place at central level. Another valuable hypothesis is that the clinical modifications resulting from mAbs treatment may induce functional modulation of several brain areas. With these premises, the primary aim of the study is to evaluate changes in functional connectivity in patients undergoing preventive mAbs treatment using high density EEG.
Chronic pain (CP) is a substantial healthcare challenge with considerable economic costs. Recently, the term Nociplastic Pain (NP) has been introduced as a third descriptor of mechanisms related to CP. NP describes conditions that arise from altered nociception despite no clear evidence of actual or threatened tissue damage. It represents a new way of describing somatoform painful conditions, originating from altered central-nervous pathways (e.g., central sensitization) and with the important involvement of clinical psychological factors. Among nociplastic chronic syndromes have been included fibromyalgia (FM), chronic migraine (CM) and vulvodynia (VU). These chronic pain disorders have been usually studied separately, although the high comorbidity rates. Many studies evidenced the role of psychosocial variables in the onset and maintenance of the burden related to these conditions. Among them, personality traits, defense mechanisms, central sensitization, and childhood traumatic experiences may play a pivotal role in the onset of the NP. The first aim of this study is to highlight possible psychosocial clusters of variables that are specific for each condition (FM, CM, and VU). A second aim, to improve the tailored psychological treatment devoted to these conditions, is to explore the association between FM, CM, and VU with depression, anxiety, somatization, quality of life, alexithymia, social support, sexual satisfaction, and functioning. This will make it possible to identify specifically for each condition the areas of greatest interest that can be investigated and treated in clinical intervention. To identify specific descriptors, NP conditions will be compared with a control group of subjects reporting other types of CP (e.g., knee arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis). The study involves the collection of data from a self-administered questionnaire in several Italian centers specializing in the above-mentioned clinical conditions under the guidance of the research team of the Department of Dynamic and Clinical Psychology and Health Studies, PI Professor Federica Galli.
This is a prospective, multi-center, unblinded study in patients with migraine (≥ 8 MMDs/month) requiring preventive treatment. Enrolled patients will receive DAX administered subcutaneously using an established, published, legacy injection paradigm (referred to herein as the "standard paradigm"). The safety and efficacy outcome measures will be assessed at selected dosing segments during the 24-week treatment phase.
The aim of this work is to assess the efficacy of ultrasound guided greater occipital nerve block either by local anesthetic or by botulinum toxin in comparison to medical treatment in prevention of chronic migraine.
zolmitriptane can be tried as prophylactic therapy of childhood migraine
The goal of this project is to evaluate galcanezumab transfer into maternal breastmilk, and to evaluate infant (growth, development, constipation, colic, infections) and maternal (headache) outcomes for dyads in which the mother was treated with galcanezumab and to compare outcomes for infants who were or were not breastfed after maternal treatment. In this prospective observational study, the study team proposes to prospectively collect serial milk samples from 30 adult women who are treated with galcanezumab for migraine. Mothers who are interested in participating will be connected with us, the main clinical site, by neurologists across the USA. Mothers must carry a diagnosis of migraine, be aged 18-45 years, and be between 14 days and 9 months postpartum, and still nursing, at the time of enrollment. This study will fill a significant unmet need as women of childbearing potential are over-represented in the migraine population, and yet they are excluded from clinical trials of migraine treatments during pregnancy and lactation.
