Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of a range of doses of MK-1602 versus placebo in the treatment of acute migraine.
The purpose of this research study is to test two medicines for migraine prevention in children and adolescents.
This proposal describes a randomized controlled pilot trial investigating feasibility, safety, and migraine frequency in patients with migraines who undergo an 8 week mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) program compared to a wait-list control group.
This is a pilot study investigating the therapeutic potential of breathing 100% oxygen in acute migraine headache.
The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the use of prochlorperazine and ketorolac in combination lead in a larger reduction in pain score compared to prochlorperazine alone when treating pediatric migraine in the Emergency Department (ED). Our hypothesis is that this combination of medications treats not only the pain but also the associated gastrointestinal symptoms of migraine. The main outcome of this study is the reduction in the patient's pain score at 60 minutes from administration of the study medications. Secondary outcomes include the number of patients achieving complete resolution of the headache while in the ED, the number of patients requiring additional treatment interventions by the treating physician, the number of patients with resolution of the associated symptoms like nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia, the recurrence of headache in the 48-72 hours after discharge, and side effects of the medications.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess feasibility and clarify the design of future study(ies) to support marketing approval of the GammaCore™ device for the treatment and/or prevention of migraine symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MK-6096 versus placebo for preventing migraines in participants with episodic migraine. After a 28-day Screening period during which baseline number of monthly migraine days was assessed, participants were randomized to receive MK-6096 or placebo for a 12-week Treatment Period. Participants who completed all 12 weeks of the Treatment Period received drug or placebo for an additional 2 weeks in the Run-out Period. Treatment assignment in the Run-out Period was determined at the initial randomization. In the Run-out Period, participants who received placebo in the Treatment Period continued to receive placebo and participants who received MK-6096 in the Treatment Period 2 received either MK-6096 or placebo in a 1:1 ratio. The hypothesis tested in the study is that MK-6096 10 mg is superior to placebo in reducing migraine frequency as measured by the mean change from baseline in monthly migraine days averaged over the 12- week treatment period.
The purpose of this study is: - To compare the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of intranasal administration of 20 mg OPTINOSE SUMATRIPTAN with 20 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Nasal Spray, 100 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Oral Tablet, and 6 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Subcutaneous Injection, in healthy subjects. - To estimate the relative bioavailability of single-dose intranasal administration of 20 mg OPTINOSE SUMATRIPTAN, 20 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Nasal Spray, and 100 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Oral Tablet compared to a single-dose of 6 mg IMITREX® (sumatriptan) Subcutaneous Injection, in healthy subjects.
While some indications of the neural circuits involved in the Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM) process are now available, there is still need to clarify what parts of the brain are essential for this process, whether the spino-brainstem loop is largely sufficient to explain CPM or whether other cerebral and spinal regions such as frontal, somatosensory and other cortical regions contribute substantially. Whereas mere observation of correlation between these circuits while activated by brain imaging is still of considerable interest, direct experimental manipulations by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could even establish insights into causal relationships.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel therapy for treatment of migraine, pain reduction and relief of associated symptoms during ongoing migraine attacks, and presence of a preventive effect two months post treatment. Another purpose is to investigate if and how this treatment affects manifestations of the autonomic nervous system activity.
