Filter by:MOVEMENT (Multimechanistic Treatment over Time of Migraine Symptoms) is a Phase 3 study to evaluate the long-term safety of chronic intermittent use of AXS-07 and to assess the effect of AXS-07 on migraine symptoms following repeated treatment of migraine attacks.
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of monthly 225 mg sc fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and major depressive disorder (MDD) The secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of monthly 225 mg sc of fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and MDD on the reduction of MDD symptoms, responder rates in monthly migraine days, improving quality of life, improving disability, and the safety and tolerability of monthly 225 mg sc and quarterly 675 mg sc fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and MDD. The total duration of participant participation in the study is planned to be approximately 28 weeks.
This study aims to improve the pathophysiological understanding of migraine in in a longitudinal observational study investigating changes of established neurophysiological and imaging parameters in line with changes of the clinical phenotype. The study's focus is the investigation of mechanisms that are directly related to the cyclic character of migraine and its core structures. In this context, the primary endpoint is a change in the nociceptive blink reflex, an established brain stem reflex to study the trigemino-spinal system, associated with changes in migraine frequency and severity. In order to reliably detect changes in the trigeminal pain system, investigations are performed in patients before starting a prophylactic therapy and 3 months afterwards. Several secondary endpoints are used to evaluate changes of multimodal sensory and cortical information processing. Cerebral imaging will include examinations of structural and network effects of altered migraine disease activity.
Greater occipital nerve block ("GON block") is carried out extensively in the treatment of chronic migraine, but more research is required to understand the effectiveness of the procedure. It consists of a superficial injection of local anaesthetic and steroid around a nerve at the back of the head that supplies sensation to part of the scalp. This study intends to provide more detailed information on the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of GON block with local anaesthetic and steroid in patients with chronic migraine. It does this by comparing it to a dummy (placebo) procedure (a needle is inserted near the nerve, but no therapeutic substance is injected). It is a "cross-over study": all patients will receive both the GON block and the dummy procedure (not necessarily in that order), with a period in between to assess the response to the first injection. The GON block will entail an injection of 2 mls of 2% lidocaine (a local anaesthetic) and 80 mg of DepoMedrone (a steroid) through a fine needle (a total of 4 mls). The dummy procedure will consist of an injection of 4 mls of normal saline (a solution of common salt and water) through a fine needle. Patients will be followed up at various time points throughout 6 months whilst being enrolled on the study.
Single centered diary-based study to identify course and characteristics of hormone withdrawal headaches/migraines in users of combined hormonal contraceptives Objectives of the Research Project: to identify the course and characteristics of hormone withdrawal headaches/migraines in users of combined hormonal contraceptives (CHC)
To investigate the role of KATP channels in migraine with aura patients.
Migraines are very common and affect over 35 million Americans a year. Migraines can be painful and affect daily life. The cause of migraine is multifactorial and not completely understood. Treatment usually includes different classes of medications, life style changes, physical therapy, acupuncture, nerve stimulators and avoiding common triggers (like bright lights, certain foods, or loud sounds). For some patients, Botox injected into the muscles of the forehead and neck can significantly reduce pain. Unfortunately, this does not provide long-term relief as the effect of Botox lasts for 3 months. Since year 2000 surgery to treat a selected population of migraine patients has been gaining popularity and showing promising results. The surgery reduces the pressure on the peripheral nerves that are believed to cause migraine headaches by resecting the surrounding tissue (bone, fascia, muscle, and arteries). This surgery provides a more long-term and permanent relief. The purpose of this study is to follow the effectiveness and outcomes of migraine surgery.
Open-label randomized controlled trial to study the efficacy of continuous daily use of ethinylestradiol/levonorgestrel (30/150 µg/day) compared with vitamin E (400 IU/day) in the treatment of women with menstrually-related and perimenopausal migraine.
To what extent the somatotopy of the 3 branches of the trigeminal nerve (V1,V2,V3) as well as the greater occipital nerve (GON) in the brainstem but also in the thalamus and the insula can be mapped using functional imaging and BOLD in humans is not known but might play an important role in imaging headache diseases. The aim is to map their somatotopy by random stimulation of V1, V2, V3 and the GON with painful electrical input during acquisition of BOLD-fMRI.
The purpose of the study is the measure the levels of lasmiditan in the body of children aged 6 to 17 with migraine. The study also will also examine the safety and tolerability of lasmiditan in children aged 6 to 17 with migraine. The study will last about 6 weeks, and includes 4 visits.
