Filter by:This study will demonstrate the definitive bioequivalence of a solid dose formulation of MK0974 to the liquid filled capsule formulation of MK0974.
This study will evaluate the bioequivalence of two solid dose formulations of MK0974.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether relaxation (autogenic training of Schultz) is effective in treatment for migraine.
The investigators hypothesize that genes that play a role in menstrual migraine can be identified using a well characterised migraine population and a comprehensive genome-wide association scan approach. The aim of the study is to identify genes, genetic regions, and the effect of hormones on expression profiles in women with menstrual migraine compared to a control population with no personal or first-degree family history of migraine. In this case control study, saliva samples will be taken from 300 cases and 300 controls for DNA analysis. Blood samples from 30 cases and 30 controls will be taken during the follicular phase as well as the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle for ribonucleic acid (RNA) analysis.
Background: The therapy with pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEFs) has been used as a therapeutic modality for at least 40 years. However, their effect in the migraine prophylaxis is unclear. Objectives: Evaluate the prophylactic effectiveness of the therapy with PEFs in the handling of migraines. Methodology: Placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, crossed clinical study.
Many clinical trials may not fully explore criteria that are important to some migraine patients' definition of "complete response." This study offers the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of Treximet™ when non-standard criteria are examined (for example, neck pain, irritability or fatigue). Subjects enrolled at 8 investigative sites will complete 2 visits. Subjects will complete a Completeness of Response Survey at Visit 1 considering their usual migraine medication (a triptan) and a Completeness of Response Survey at Visit 2 considering their study medication (Treximet™).
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of BGG492 used to treat migraine pain.
The objective of this study is to identify reasons migraine patients stop using triptan medications for abortive headache treatment. It is hypothesized that inadequate education of the patient at the time of prescribing the triptan is positively associated with triptan discontinuation.
The circadian system with its centre in the hypothalamus is involved in migraine pathophysiology. Whether it plays a pivotal role is not clarified. The investigators postulate that a destabilized circadian system may increase migraine attack susceptibility, and that stabilization by supplying melatonin a migraine preventive effect will be achieved. A previous open label study has shown effects that certainly warrant a placebo controlled study.
Subjects enrolled at 2 investigative sites will complete 3 visits. Following Visit 1, during a 1-month Baseline Period, subjects will treat with their usual medication and document any warning signs (Prodrome pre-headache) that a migraine will occur. Following randomization (like a flip of the coin) at Visit 2, subjects will treat daily with topiramate or during Prodrome with frovatriptan. Subjects complete a 2-month Treatment Period before exit at Visit 3.This study will compare the effectiveness of daily treatment vs. treatment during the pre-headache phase for prevention of migraine.
