Migraine is one of the three most disabling diseases worldwide. Constituted by recurrent episodes of headache, characterized by unilateral location, throbbing character, moderate or severe intensity, worsening with physical activity, and association with nausea or photophobia and/or phonophobia. There are two types of drug treatment: abortifacient and prophylactic. The American Academy of Neurology classifies sodium valproate as level A; however, some patients do not obtain a satisfactory response rate and/or have adverse effects. Therefore, the search for new pharmacological treatments continues. In 2015, a double-blind, randomized clinical trial with a placebo was carried out to assess Memantine's efficacy in the prophylactic treatment of migraine without aura, which reported a reduction of 2.3 migraine attacks per month compared to the placebo group. Memantine could be a new effective treatment alternative, which is why we will compare the efficacy of Memantine against sodium valproate as a prophylactic migraine treatment. Main objective: To compare the efficacy of Memantine at a rate of 20mg divided into two doses a day against sodium valproate (VPA) at a rate of 1000mg divided into two doses a day prophylactic treatment of migraine for three months. Study design: a prospective controlled, randomized, double-blind clinical trial. Inclusion criteria: Men and women aged 18 to 65 years with a diagnosis at least one year before the study must present at least 2 to 8 migraine attacks per month and less than 15 days with headache per month, which should not be receiving prophylactic treatment for migraine and sign an informed consent Sample size calculation and statistical analysis: It is calculated using the normal distribution model, where the recommended sample size is 196 participants. Since a pilot study will be conducted, 10% of the sample size will be taken to make it representative, a sample size of 20 participants is decided for each group.
The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate a bundle of implementation strategies at three Veteran Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs) to facilitate the referral and adoption of a telehealth based, cognitive behavioral therapy program delivered by Health Psychologists for Veterans with chronic migraine to inform a future fully-powered hybrid type 2 effectiveness-implementation design. Veteran patients will be randomized to either the telehealth delivered CBT or usual care. Headache symptoms and severity will be reported using a VA text messaging application.
Introduction:Migraine is a prevalent disabling primary headache disorder which is classified in two major types; migraine without aura and migraine with aura. The aim of this study was to compare the efficiency of mesotherapy with systemic therapy in pain controlin patients with headache related tomigraine without aura. Methods: We conducted this prospective parallel randomized controlled trial with the patients admitted to the emergency department with headache related to migraine without aura. One group was treated with mesotherapy, and the control group with intravenous dexketoprofen. Changes in pain intensity at 30th minute, 60th minute, 120th minute and 24th hours after treatment using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), need to use analgesic drug within 24 hours,re-admission with same complaint to emergency department (ED) within 72 hours, and adverse effect rate of the methods were compared between groups.
In seeking to understand the capacity for psilocybin to reduce migraine headache burden, this study will investigate single and repeated dosing of psilocybin up to two doses. In seeking to identify an underlying mechanism in psilocybin's effects, neuroinflammatory markers for migraine headache will be measured.
This is a 128-week open-label study to assess the long-term safety and tolerabilty of the monoclonal antibody erenumab in migraine patients.
Study 20170703 is a phase 4, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab against placebo in participants with chronic migraine (CM) who have a history of at least 1 preventive treatment failure and are diagnosed with medication overuse headache (MOH).
Migraine is a frequent pathology, highly linked to anxio-depressive factors. Non-drug approaches are part of the therapeutic arsenal. Music therapy is a recent discipline expanding in hospital services and specialised ambulatory centers. The main objective of this study is to assess the effect of " U " technique in receptive music therapy on migraine frequency, on patients suffering from episodic migraines, through " Music care " software home use. Secondary objectives are to assess this technique impact on migraine intensity, duration, emotional effect (HAD score), functional impact (HIT-6 score), and acute treatment administration. This is a monocentric prospective before-after study carried out in chronic pain department of the CHU Sud Reunion.
This pilot study hopes to show that after 3 months of Kiko training, Kiko naive patients with migraine will have a decrease in the frequency and severity of their migraines.
This study consists of a 4-week screening period, a 24-week treatment period for all participants, followed by a 28-week treatment period extension (to 52 weeks in total) for a subset of at least 60 and up to 80 participants, and a 2-week post-treatment follow-up period.
