Filter by:Chronic Migraine is a disabling condition that affects the 2% of migraine population. It is often associated with medication overuse that makes this condition very difficult to treat. The literature of the last decades confirm the efficacy of withdrawal for patients with medication overuse but it is also confirmed that patients have to be carefully followed in the last period after withdrawal to avoid relapses and to improve the clinical benefit of the therapeutic approach. It has been also reported how the clinical results can be improved when traditional therapies are combined with behavioral approaches in particular mindfulness, that help patient to become more conscious about their symptoms and able to manage pain without medication. Generally patients after withdrawal follow a specific prophylaxis for migraine, but also come weekly to the hospital for practicing mindfulness for 6 sessionsAs the emergency situation due to the Corona-virus pandemic phenomenon in Italy, patients will miss the possibility to come for the regular practice to the hospital: for this reason the investigator propose a small pilot study to enforce the use of technology for our patients so that they can continue to be followed in their therapeutic process. This preliminary study will be conducted on 25 patients that have been submitted to a withdrawal according to the standard procedure at our hospital and they will practice mindfulness daily by a standard session of 12 minutes on their smartphone recorded by the expert who generally manage their sessions at the hospital and also a weekly video-call to evaluate the clinical condition and to encourage to use strategies for pain management. This modality will allow the patients to continue their therapeutic process and to be followed regularly during the one year after withdrawal
This study seeks to determine the effectiveness of a specific treatment protocol using dry needling with perineural electrical stimulation in comparison to standard treatment in physical therapy for patients with migraine headaches. This will be a randomized cross-over study in which participants will be in the first arm of the study, have a washout period, then cross over to the other arm of the study.
In seeking to understand the capacity for psilocybin to reduce migraine headache burden, this study will investigate single and repeated dosing of psilocybin up to two doses. In seeking to identify an underlying mechanism in psilocybin's effects, neuroinflammatory markers for migraine headache will be measured.
This is a 128-week open-label study to assess the long-term safety and tolerabilty of the monoclonal antibody erenumab in migraine patients.
Study 20170703 is a phase 4, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab against placebo in participants with chronic migraine (CM) who have a history of at least 1 preventive treatment failure and are diagnosed with medication overuse headache (MOH).
Migraine is a frequent pathology, highly linked to anxio-depressive factors. Non-drug approaches are part of the therapeutic arsenal. Music therapy is a recent discipline expanding in hospital services and specialised ambulatory centers. The main objective of this study is to assess the effect of " U " technique in receptive music therapy on migraine frequency, on patients suffering from episodic migraines, through " Music care " software home use. Secondary objectives are to assess this technique impact on migraine intensity, duration, emotional effect (HAD score), functional impact (HIT-6 score), and acute treatment administration. This is a monocentric prospective before-after study carried out in chronic pain department of the CHU Sud Reunion.
This pilot study hopes to show that after 3 months of Kiko training, Kiko naive patients with migraine will have a decrease in the frequency and severity of their migraines.
This study consists of a 4-week screening period, a 24-week treatment period for all participants, followed by a 28-week treatment period extension (to 52 weeks in total) for a subset of at least 60 and up to 80 participants, and a 2-week post-treatment follow-up period.
A Phase I clinical trial to compare the bioavailability of dihydroergotamine mesylate (DHE) following a single dose administration of INP104 (DHE administered by I123 Precision Olfactory Delivery (POD) Device Nasal Spray) to that of D.H.E. 45 for Injection (Intravenous) and Migranal Nasal Spray in healthy adult subjects. It is hypothesized that INP104 will address the current variability in nasal administration and give more reproducible dose delivery compared to Migranal nasal spray. Blood concentrations of all three investigational products will be compared for 48 hours following dosing. The safety and tolerability of INP104 will be monitored throughout the study. INP104 has been developed for the treatment of acute migraine headache. The device in which the drug will be delivered has been designed to deliver the medication to the upper nasal cavity with minimal variation in dose absorption, eg loss via dripping out of the nose or the dose being swallowed. Approximately 36 participants in general good health (equal ratio of males and females desired) will be enrolled and will be allocated to receive 3 treatments in a randomized sequence. They will receive a single dose of INP104, a single dose of DHE via intravenous injection, and a single dose of Migranal Nasal Spray. There will be a wash out period where no treatment will be administered for 7 days in between each treatment. Participants are required to attend 3 inpatient periods and 1 final outpatient visit. Each participant will be in the study for up to 43 days.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of oral psilocybin in migraine headache. Subjects will each receive a dose of placebo and a dose of psilocybin approximately 14 days apart. Subjects will be randomized to the order of treatment and they will be randomized to receive either low or high dose psilocybin. Subjects will maintain a headache diary prior to, during, and after the treatments in order to document headache frequency and intensity, as well as associated symptoms. This preliminary study will inform on the basic effects of psilocybin in migraine headache and inform on the design of larger, more definitive studies.
