Filter by:An outstanding scientific question, that merits further investigation, is whether dilation of intracranial arteries is implicated in the pathogenesis of cephalic pain in migraine. Here, we hypothesize that experimentally-induced dilation of intracranial arteries using intake of sildenafil (a potent vasodilator) can induce cephalic pain with migraine-like features in people with migraine, who prior to the infusion are administered erenumab (anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor monoclonal antibody.
An outstanding scientific question, that merits further investigation, is whether dilation of intracranial arteries is implicated in the pathogenesis of cephalic pain in migraine. Here, we hypothesize that experimentally-induced dilation of intracranial arteries using intravenous infusion of levcromakalim (a potent vasodilator) induces cephalic pain with migraine-like features in people with migraine, who prior to the infusion are administered erenumab (anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor monoclonal antibody).
Tools to predict which patients could better respond to abortive CGRP target therapy are still lacking. We propose to investigate if biochemical (salivary CGRP) and neurophysiological (evoked potentials) biomarkers can recognize patients with the best chances of responding to Rimegepant 75 mg as an acute treatment of migraine.
Greater occipital nerve pulsed radiofrequency therapy is used in the treatment of migraine. This method is applied at the level of the proximal c2 vertebra and by approaching the nerve from the distal 1/3 medial of the occipital protuberant. The investigators aimed to compare the effectiveness of these two methods.
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. This study will assess how safe and effective three different doses of atogepant is compared to placebo in adult Japanese participants. Change in migraine symptoms will be assessed. Atogepant (Qulipta) is an approved drug to treat adults with episodic migraine in the United States. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the 4 treatment groups called Arms to receive atogepant or matching placebo. There is 1 in a 4 chance for the participant to receive placebo. This is double-blinded study which means neither study doctor not the participant will know if the participant received atogepant or placebo. Approximately 520 adult participants with episodic migraine will be enrolled in approximately 50 sites across Japan. Participants will receive oral atogepant or matching placebo tablets once daily for 12 weeks. At 12 weeks participants assigned to atogepant dose A, dose B or dose C will continue to receive same treatment for 12 additional weeks and participants assigned to placebo will be re-randomized to receive atogepant dose A, dose B or dose C for 12 additional weeks. All participants will be followed for 30 days following last dose of study drug. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and tolerability of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for adverse events and completing questionnaires.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safe use of the PRIMUS system in subjects with chronic migraine. This is a single-center, open label, prospective, early feasibility study to collect initial clinical data on the PRIMUS system for the treatment of chronic migraine.
Researchers are evaluating the safety of triptan treatment of migraine in individuals with elevated cardiovascular risk and in pregnant women.
Randomized study of two digital therapeutics for the prevention of episodic migraine
Investigators aim to compare the effect of lacosamide versus propranolol in migraine by assessing the absolute reduction in MMD in each group, the percentage of patients who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in the monthly headache days frequency compared to the baseline frequency.
This is a prospective single center, randomized, double-blind, 3 arm placebo-controlled study in subjects with migraine headache requiring prophylactic treatment. The patients will be randomized to receive Nicotinic Acid Extended-release tablet 500 mg or 1000 mg or placebo for 12 weeks. The safety and efficacy outcome measures will be assessed at baseline and 12 weeks.
