Migraine Disorders Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Sham-Controlled Study of Home-Delivered Non-Invasive Neurostimulation for Migraine
There is a need for better preventive and abortive therapies for migraine. Previous research has indicated that non-invasive neurostimulation may have prophylactic effects on migraine and improve symptoms and functional outcomes in migraineurs. One such method is a non-invasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). This double-blind randomized sham-controlled two-parallel-arm study aims to evaluate efficacy and safety of tDCS self-delivered in daily 20-minute applications for 2 months (60 days) by adult migraine patients at home for migraine prevention and migraine symptom management, as compared to sham tDCS application; and to evaluate patients' satisfaction with the procedure.
This study will employ a double-blind randomized sham-controlled two-parallel-arm design and involve 60 adults with migraine. For each participant, the study will involve 3 study visits and last about 90 days (30 days of the baseline followed by 60 days of the tDCS/sham study intervention). A post-study safety monitoring will continue bi-weekly by phone for 30 days after the last tDCS/sham application. At Visit 1, patients will provide written informed consent and undergo screening for the eligibility. This will be followed by 30 days of baseline at home during which patients will keep daily records (Daily Diaries) of migraine occurrence and provide answers to a set of symptom-related questionnaires. Patients with 4 or more migraine days per month who fully meet the study eligibility criteria at the end of the baseline period will be randomized in double-blind manner into two groups: Group 1 will be randomized to receive active tDCS in daily 20-minute applications for 60 days; Group 2 will be randomized to receive sham tDCS in daily 20-minute applications for 60 days, self-applied at home. Following randomization, patients will continue keeping the Daily Diaries and Visit #2 will be held either in the patient's home or in the research facility, based on the patient's preference. tDCS device will be deployed to the patient and instructions on tDCS use will be provided. The first tDCS/sham self-application by the patient will be done at Visit 2. Daily tDCS/sham self-application by the patient at home and records in the form of Daily Diaries will continue for the rest of the 60-day period. Study staff will be in regular remote contact with the patient via phone and/or HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing. Upon conclusion of the intervention, Visit 3 will be held either in the patient's home or in the research facility, based on the patient's preference. tDCS device will be collected from the patient. Safety monitoring will continue bi-weekly by phone for 30 days after the last tDCS/sham application. Outcome assessment will be carried out at the end of the baseline, and at Day 30 (the secondary time-point) and Day 60 (the primary time-point) of the tDCS/sham intervention. ;
