Filter by:Study STS101-002 is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of single doses of STS101 (dihydroergotamine nasal powder) in the acute treatment of migraine
Single-center, single-dose, open-label, 2-part, 3-period crossover (in each part), pharmacokinetic and safety study.
investigators hypothesize that T2 * vein abnormalities are frequent and are specific to the migraine aura.
The aim of the study is to retrospectively evaluate brain perfusion and oxygenation in acute migraine attacks. Magnetic resonance perfusion and susceptibility weighted imaging are the technics to measure perfusion and oxygenation respectively.
Migraine is a common, chronic neurovascular disorder characterized by attacks of severe headache, autonomic nervous system dysfunction and, in some patients, aura, and disabling neurological symptoms. Worldwide, migraine prevalence is as high as 18% in the general population. Increased frequency of patent foramen ovale (PFO) in migraineurs was first reported in 1998 in a case-control study. Since then, others have described a 60% prevalence of PFO in patients suffering from migraine with aura. The presence of a right-to-left shunt (RLS) is thought to be a potent trigger of migraine attacks, although the mechanism is unknown. Moreover, PFO closure has correlated with improved migraine symptoms in several retrospective uncontrolled studies. The aim of this single-center, prospective study is to assess the impact of PFO closure on migraine attacks over time together with evaluation of potential predictive risk factors.
This study evaluates the short and long-term effects of application of Wet Cupping Therapy (WCT) in the treatment of migraine headaches in adults.Half of the participants will continue WCT application and the other half will not.
A study to test the efficacy of a partial rebreathing device in treating and/or preventing migraine pain
The majority of migraineurs seeking secondary or tertiary medical care develop cutaneous allodynia during the course of migraine, a sensory abnormality mediated by sensitization of central trigeminovascular neurons in the spinal trigeminal nucleus. Triptan therapy can render allodynic migraineurs pain-free within a narrow window of time (20-120 min) that opens with the onset of pain and closes with the establishment of central sensitization. This calls for the development of drugs that can tackle ongoing central sensitization and render allodynic migraineurs pain-free after the window for triptan therapy has expired. There are two main objectives the investigators seek to achieve from this study: to determine whether oral administration of DFN-15 (solution of a COX2 inhibitor, Celecoxib) terminates migraine attacks when given to allodynic participants 3 hours after attack onset; and to determine whether mechanical and heat allodynia that develop during acute migraine attacks could be reversed by late (> 3hrs after attack onset) treatment with DFN-15. Participants will be recruited from the Headache Center and randomized in a double-blinded fashion to receive either the active drug (DFN-15) or placebo in a ratio of 4:1.The participants will be instructed to return to the clinic during a migraine. At the 'during-migraine' visit, which will begin 3 hours after onset of headache, the investigators will document headache intensity, associated symptoms, and mechanical and heat pain threshold (first) before treatment (at 180 min after onset of headache) and (second) at a 120 min after treatment (5 hours after headache onset). Based on our prior experience studying migraine patients, the investigators plan to screen 100 patients to achieve 50 participants completing the 2 study visits as planned. The active drug group will consist of 80/100 patients and 20/100 patients will receive the placebo. The study will be terminated as soon as the first 40 participants who received the DFN-15 and first 10 patients who received placebo completed visit 2.
Migraine is a common neurologic with attacks of headache and associated symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, phono and photophobia. Migraine can lead to substantial functional impairment. Recent evidence suggests that electro stimulation is effective in providing relief for chronic headaches including migraine. It is tolerable by patients and associated with no adverse effects. The device utilizes electro stimulation to achieve conditioned pain modulation (CPM). CPM an stimulate endogenous analgesic mechanism. The modulatory effect is over the whole body, and can be induced anywhere. This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham controlled multi-center trial. Ratio between treatment and control groups will be 1:1, stratified by center and use of preventive medications. The study objectives is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Nerivio Migra electro stimulation device for the reduction of migraine headache during an attack of migraine with or without aura. The study is intended for subject with 2-8 migraine episodes per month. patients will receive the device, either an active or a placebo type, and will be asked to use the device at home or in any location that they will be when the migraine starts. The study hypothesis is that electro stimulation delivered transcutaneously to the peripheral nervous system at onset of a migraine attack significantly reduce headache pain demonstrated by a significant difference between proportions of responders to the active treatment stimulation in comparison to proportion of responders that will use a placebo device.
This pilot study evaluates the addition of chiropractic treatment to conventional neurological care in the treatment of migraine headaches in adult women. Half of the participants will receive 10 chiropractic treatments in addition to their usual care over a 14 week period, while the other half will continue their usual medical care alone, as prescribed by their physician during that time period.
