Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the initial safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of the novel BliStim occipital nerve field stimulation therapy for the prevention of chronic cluster headaches. This is a prospective, first in human study.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safe use of the PRIMUS System in subjects with chronic cluster headache. This is a single-centre, open label, prospective, first in human study to collect initial clinical data on the PRIMUS system for the treatment of chronic cluster headache.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of LSD 25μg every 3 days for 3 weeks versus placebo in the treatment of chronic cluster headache (cCH). It is a 3-week double-blind placebo-controlled intervention study, preceded by a 4-week baseline observation period and followed by a 5-week post-treatment observation period. Primary objective: to evaluate the efficacy of LSD 25μg every 3 days for 3 weeks in cCH. Additional objectives: - To evaluate the safety of LSD 25μg every 3 days for 3 weeks in cCH. - To explore the exposure-response relationship of 25μg LSD in cCH. - To assess the effect of treatment with 25μg LSD on hypothalamic functional connectivity in patients with cCH, using resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsMRI). - To explore cost-effectiveness of treatment with LSD in cCH. - To evaluate the efficacy of LSD on health-related quality of life.
The main goal of this trial is to inform about long-term safety and tolerability of eptinezumab in participants with chronic cluster headache.
The study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind clinical trial that aims to investigate the effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) on attack frequency and severity in patients with chronic cluster headache (CH). Study outline Month 1: Baseline. Establishment of a baseline profile of the participants CH attacks (severity, duration, medicine utilization etc), health-related quality of life (QoL) and symptoms of anxiety and depression. No active treatment. Follow-up visit after 30 days. Months 2-4: TENS period. All participants will receive TENS-treatment. Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month four. Months 5-7: Double-blinded, randomized experimental period. All participants will have an ONS-system (lead, impulse generator) implanted and will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 1) burst (paresthesia-free) ONS or 2) placebo (deactivated ONS system). Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month seven. Months 8-10: Open label period. All participants will receive tonic (conventional, paresthesia-inducing) ONS. Clinical follow-up visit by the end of month ten. During every study phase each participant will fill out a weekly electronic headache registration as well as answering questionnaires regarding health-related quality of life and symptoms of anxiety and depression before every follow-up visit.
Atkins diet is a nutritional regimen characterized by ad libitum protein and fat intake, but carbohydrate restriction. It is followed by millions of people around the word as a life-style, but in the last years was proposed as a treatment for the epilepsy, by its capacity to induce the state of ketosis. Since Authors observed that ketosis could be also useful in migraine, and migraine shares some pathophysiological features with cluster headache, The aim of the study is to test the efficacy of Atkins diet in Cluster Headache by an open label one harm observational study.
The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fremanezumab (TEV-48125), in the prevention of CCH in adult participants.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of galcanezumab administered up to once monthly in participants with episodic or chronic cluster headache who have completed study I5Q-MC-CGAL (NCT02397473) or study I5Q-MC-CGAM (NCT02438826).
We hypothesized that LF stimulation of the SPG would increase parasympathetic outflow, activate sensory afferents and provoke a cluster-like attack.
Cluster headache is a primary headache that chiefly affects young men, and is less common than migraine. This disease can have devastating consequences due to the pain intensity (it is also called "suicide headache"), to the side effects of the drug preventive therapies, and to the resistance of some subtypes of the headache to all existing medications. Recent studies suggest that cluster headache could be associated with a decrease of the activity of frontal areas involved in descending pain control, in particular the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex. The aim of this pilot study is to activate these areas with a non-invasive neurostimulation technique, called transcranial direct current stimulation, as a preventive treatment for cluster headache sufferers.
