View clinical trials related to Migraine Disorders.
Filter by:Migraine is a prevalent neurological disorder that severely impacts both children and adolescents, causing significant disability. Remote Electrical Neuromodulation (REN) is a nonpharmacological, prescribed, wearable device, FDA-cleared for acute and/or preventive treatment of migraine with or without aura in patients 12 years or older. Multiple studies have shown that REN has high safety, tolerability, and efficacy in adults and adolescents. This study aims to evaluate REN's real-world safety and efficacy in pre-adolescents, 9-11 years old.
Chronic pain (CP) is a substantial healthcare challenge with considerable economic costs. Recently, the term Nociplastic Pain (NP) has been introduced as a third descriptor of mechanisms related to CP. NP describes conditions that arise from altered nociception despite no clear evidence of actual or threatened tissue damage. It represents a new way of describing somatoform painful conditions, originating from altered central-nervous pathways (e.g., central sensitization) and with the important involvement of clinical psychological factors. Among nociplastic chronic syndromes have been included fibromyalgia (FM), chronic migraine (CM) and vulvodynia (VU). These chronic pain disorders have been usually studied separately, although the high comorbidity rates. Many studies evidenced the role of psychosocial variables in the onset and maintenance of the burden related to these conditions. Among them, personality traits, defense mechanisms, central sensitization, and childhood traumatic experiences may play a pivotal role in the onset of the NP. The first aim of this study is to highlight possible psychosocial clusters of variables that are specific for each condition (FM, CM, and VU). A second aim, to improve the tailored psychological treatment devoted to these conditions, is to explore the association between FM, CM, and VU with depression, anxiety, somatization, quality of life, alexithymia, social support, sexual satisfaction, and functioning. This will make it possible to identify specifically for each condition the areas of greatest interest that can be investigated and treated in clinical intervention. To identify specific descriptors, NP conditions will be compared with a control group of subjects reporting other types of CP (e.g., knee arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis). The study involves the collection of data from a self-administered questionnaire in several Italian centers specializing in the above-mentioned clinical conditions under the guidance of the research team of the Department of Dynamic and Clinical Psychology and Health Studies, PI Professor Federica Galli.
This is a prospective, multi-center, unblinded study in patients with migraine (≥ 8 MMDs/month) requiring preventive treatment. Enrolled patients will receive DAX administered subcutaneously using an established, published, legacy injection paradigm (referred to herein as the "standard paradigm"). The safety and efficacy outcome measures will be assessed at selected dosing segments during the 24-week treatment phase.
The aim of this work is to assess the efficacy of ultrasound guided greater occipital nerve block either by local anesthetic or by botulinum toxin in comparison to medical treatment in prevention of chronic migraine.
Mesotherapy is a type of injection frequently used in clinics. It is a treatment procedure that involves the injection of some drugs under the skin or into the skin. Mesotherapy is used in musculoskeletal system diseases, but it is reported that the effects of its use in migraine are uncertain.
A Single-Arm Open-Label Trial was performed at the Danish Headache Center (DHC), Department of Neurology, Rigshospitalet - Glostrup as part of the clinic. Purpose: To examine the effects of supervised group strength training and posture correction on headache frequency and muscle function around the neck and shoulders in patients with migraine and tension-type headaches. Hypothesis: Strength training of the neck and shoulders results in improved muscle function, which leads to a reduction in headache.

The purpose of this study to show that zavegepant 10 milligrams given through the nose provides: - freedom from pain, 2 hours after taking the medicine for the first migraine attack. - consistent freedom from pain, 2 hours after taking the medicine across 4 separate migraine attacks. This study is seeking participants who: - are 18 years of age or older. - have migraine attacks present for at least 1 year with age onset before 50 years old. - have migraine attacks, on average, lasting about 4 to 72 hours if not treated. - have 3 to 8 attacks per month but less than15 headache days per month. If the participant is fit to take part in the study, the participant will receive either the study medicine zavegepant or placebo. A placebo looks like zavegepant but does not contain active ingredients. The study medicine will be given using nasal spray device containing a single amount of zavegepant or matching placebo. The participants will be instructed to take the study medicine at home if participants have a migraine headache which reaches moderate or severe pain intensity. The participants are expected to treat up to 4 migraines of moderate to severe intensity. After taking the study medicine, the participant is not allowed to take any other medications for at least 2 hours after taking the study medicine or placebo. Participant can take other medicines after the 2 hours if the migraine is still present. The participant is expected to record on a paper log all medications taken throughout the study. The study duration is around 26 weeks. This includes a 28-day screening window, up to 20 weeks of treatment period, and a follow up visit at about 4 weeks after taking the study medicine the last time. The participant is expected to come into the study center up to 4 times. There will be up to 3 telephone contacts including one after taking the study medicine the first time or Month 1 whichever comes first, at Month 3 if the participant is still in the study, and a safety follow-up. During the study, the participant is expected to complete two sets of questions in an app on a smartphone. This step is done before and after taking the study medicine. The participants must rate: - Pain - Pain symptoms - How the participants are feeling - General well-being
zolmitriptane can be tried as prophylactic therapy of childhood migraine
The goal of this project is to evaluate galcanezumab transfer into maternal breastmilk, and to evaluate infant (growth, development, constipation, colic, infections) and maternal (headache) outcomes for dyads in which the mother was treated with galcanezumab and to compare outcomes for infants who were or were not breastfed after maternal treatment. In this prospective observational study, the study team proposes to prospectively collect serial milk samples from 30 adult women who are treated with galcanezumab for migraine. Mothers who are interested in participating will be connected with us, the main clinical site, by neurologists across the USA. Mothers must carry a diagnosis of migraine, be aged 18-45 years, and be between 14 days and 9 months postpartum, and still nursing, at the time of enrollment. This study will fill a significant unmet need as women of childbearing potential are over-represented in the migraine population, and yet they are excluded from clinical trials of migraine treatments during pregnancy and lactation.
