Filter by:Observational analytic study with a prospective cohort design. Patients with episodic and chronic migraine that have responded to monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) versus calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or its receptor with positive response will be included. A headache diary will be completed in a daily basis. The primary outcome will be the time elapsed between the discontinuation of the monoclonal antibody and the return to the clinical situation at the moment of the mAbs onset. The potential variables that may be associated with a more sustained benefit will be explored.
INTRODUCTION: It is very common that migraine patients could refer neck pain during or after the pain phase of migraine, suggesting that migraine pathophysiological mechanisms could be effective in activating neck pain pathways and be part of the migraine attack. Due to the therapeutic effect of multimodal physical therapy (mobilization and/or manipulation plus exercises) on several pain conditions arising from articular and/or muscular structures such as neck pain, and given the close clinical, anatomical and pathogenetic bi-directional relationship between neck pain and migraine, it would be of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of the physical treatment of the neck region in migraine pain. PURPOSE: to evaluate the efficacy of a combined multimodal physical therapy approach plus usual care vs. usual care alone in subjects with episodic and chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions. STUDY DESIGN: this is a prospective, parallel group, randomized clinical trial. METHODS: A total of 56 subjects aged 18-65 who meet criteria for episodic or chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions will be randomly assigned to receive, musculoskeletal focused multimodal physical therapy (16 sessions over 8 weeks) plus usual care treatment vs. usual care alone. CONFLICT OF INTEREST: not declared.
Migraine is characterized by attacks of throbbing, moderate or severe headache, often associated with nausea, vomiting, and/or sensitivity to light and/or sound. The study will assess safety and tolerability of atogepant when added to BOTOX, as well as prospectively evaluate the efficacy of add-on atogepant for migraine prevention. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be monitored. Atogepant is an investigational drug being developed to prevent chronic migraine. Approximately 75 adult participants will be enrolled at approximately 30 sites in the United States. All participants will receive atogepant oral tablet once a day (QD) during the 24-week treatment period, in addition to their standard of care Botox. 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 effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
In a real-world population of adults with migraine, the investigators would like to investigate whether 12.5 mg almotriptan is non-inferior to 50 mg ubrogepant in terms of pain freedom at 2 hours after drug intake.
In a real-world population of adults with migraine, the investigators would like to investigate whether 50 mg diclofenac potassium is non-inferior to 75 mg rimegepant in terms of pain freedom at 2 hours after drug intake.
The study aims to explore the effects of Sumatriptan on Levcromakalim-induced migraine in individuals with migraine without aura.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the risk of pregnancy and infant outcomes among women with migraine exposed to rimegepant during pregnancy and in two rimegepant unexposed comparator groups.
The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and adverse events of inhaled isopropyl alcohol vapor (IAV) versus placebo (inhaled eucalyptus scent (IES) (1:20 dilution in mineral oil) for treating nausea associated with acute migraine attacks.
The main goal of the study is to assess the long-term safety of eptinezumab on children and adolescents ages 6 to 17 with chronic or episodic migraine.
Electrophysiological changes that occur in the brains of migraine patients, lead to the activation of nociceptive centers, including a peripheral neural structure, the trigeminal ganglion (TG), which releases pain-inducing peptides and mostly calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Monoclonal antibodies acting on the CGRP pathway (CGRP-MAbs) are the first drugs specifically designed for migraine, they inhibit CGRP release from the TG without entering the brain. Not all patients experience benefit from CGRP-MAbs treatment. For this reason, associating these drugs with a non-pharmacological treatment that acts centrally, such as transcranial direct current stimulation, could be effective. The aim of the study is investigating how the migraine preventive treatment with CGRP-MAbs in association with tDCS, is effective to reduce headache days, days of disabling headache, intensity of pain and consumption of acute treatments. Migraine-related disability, quality of life, sleep disturbance and psychological aspects will also be evaluated. Patients will be randomized into two groups, one will receive active tDCS and one sham tDCS. Both patients and investigators will be blind to the treatment administered (double-blind). Furthermore, will be evalutated the cortical mechanisms involved in migraine by directly modulating brain physiology via repetitive tDCS in patients with migraine on treatment with CGRP-MAbs. To fulfill this aim, we will assess the EEG correlates of the actual effects of the stimulation in a sham-controlled study, providing the EEG indexes linked to the altered and potentially restored cortical dynamics in migraine.
