Active clinical trials for "Migraine Disorders"

This study is conducted to investigate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the primary motor cortex of patients with acute migraine attack.

This study was designed to determine the efficacy and tolerability of TREXIMET (formerly known as TREXIMA) compared to placebo for the acute treatment of probable migraine, a sub-type of migraine.

Migraine headaches have previously been shown to be responsive to intranasal lidocaine in a small study. Using a nebulizer to administer the drug would improve the feasibility of using the treatment. It would also spare the patient narcotics with their attendant side effects. Because of the potential for placebo effect a placebo control is necessary in this study.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, two-attack, out-patient, early-intervention evaluation of subjects who have migraine with or without aura and who discontinued use of short acting triptan(s) within the past year due to non-response or intolerance. Subjects will treat 2 separate migraine attacks during the mild phase of each attack; one attack will be treated with one tablet of the Combination Product (sumatriptan succinate and naproxen sodium) and the other attack with one tablet of placebo (crossover design).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether prophylactic use of topiramate (preventative use before a migraine attack) enhances the effectiveness of migraine treatment with triptans.

This is a research study to assess the safety of caffeine/propranolol at different dose levels. We want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, it has on patients and their migraines.

This is a a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, and placebo controlled, two-arm study of a single oral dose of NXN-188 for the treatment of acute migraine headache without aura. Up to 120 migraineurs will be enrolled. Approximately 60 subjects having a headache history of migraine without aura will complete each of the two treatment arms to evaluate NXN-188 600 mg or placebo.

Migraine is a common neurological condition that can be disabling, particularly if chronic. Greater occipital nerve (GON) block has been utilized for decades for the treatment of migraine in the absence of a single randomized, placebo-controlled trial documenting its effectiveness. Hypothesis: Greater occipital nerve block reduces the frequency of days with moderate or severe headache in patients with episodic or chronic migraine.

Physiology of migraine involving renin-angiotensin systems (RAS) has been implicated. Ramipril is a broadly-used angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. The investigators attempt to test the efficacy of ramipril on the prophylaxis of migraine attacks.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of topiramate compared with placebo in the prevention of migraine attacks in children (12 to 17 years of age).
