Effectiveness of a Dialogue-based Online Intervention Against Migraine
MigraineThis trial was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a dialogue-based online intervention (ceprica) that provides information regarding cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in patients with migraine. The study aims to test the hypothesis that ceprica has a greater positive impact on migraine symptoms than an active control intervention providing psychoeducational content. Patients fulfilling ICHD-criteria for migraine will be randomized and allocated to either an intervention group, receiving ceprica in addition to treatment as usual, or a control group, which receives access to an active control intervention in addition to treatment as usual. The primary endpoint is the number of migraine days per month.
Botulinum Toxin Type A Blockade of the Sphenopalatine Ganglion in Treatment-refractory Chronic Migraine...
Migraine DisordersThis is a clinical trial to assess the efficacy of botox treatment of the sphenopalatine ganglion as an add-on treatment in drug resistant migraine. An injection targeting the ganglion is made possible by an image-guided device developed specifically for this purpose (MultiGuide) Study participants will be randomized to either placebo or botox after a 4 week run-in period. First, one injection will be given towards both the right and the left ganglion. After that there will be a follow-up of 12 weeks for efficacy and safety evaluation. The main efficacy measure is change in number of moderate to severe headache days before and after injection.
Galcanezumab for Vestibular Migraine
Vestibular MigraineVestibular migraine (VM) has been recognized a distinct subtype of migraine that causes dizziness as the predominant symptom. Criteria for diagnosis have been adopted by the Barany Society. Previous epidemiological research from the investigators has shown that VM affects 2.7% of the adult population of the United States. Yet, despite its high prevalence, there is very little data upon which to guide treatment decisions. A Cochrane review in 2015 concluded that there were no placebo controlled trials in VM, and none have been done since then. The investigators recently developed and validated a patient reported outcome tool for VM called VM-PATHI (VM- Patient Assessment Tool and Handicap Inventory). Anecdotal evidence suggests that CGRP antagonists, such as Galcanezumab, may be effective in reducing or eliminating symptoms in VM. Therefore, the investigators propose a pilot study of changes in VM-PATHI scores, comparing active treatment (Galcanezumab) to placebo arms.

Responding With Evidence and Access for Childhood Headaches
HeadacheHeadache Disorders7 moreThis comparative effectiveness study will clarify current first-line preventive treatment approaches for use by neurologists, psychologists, and primary care providers in the context of real world care, and will demonstrate the feasibility of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) via telehealth for youth with migraine. The focus is on applying evidence-based care and enhancing access to it. CBT via telehealth while taking a clinically-prescribed, pill-based prevention therapy (amitriptyline) will be compared to CBT via telehealth alone.
Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET) for Migraine
Migraine DisordersThe goal of this feasibility study is to test the effect of a new behavioral intervention, Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), as a possible new treatment for people living with migraine. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can EAET lower the frequency and severity of migraine attacks? What are the elements that can explain EAET's effect? Requirements from Participants: Participants will engage in 8 weekly online sessions via zoom (sessions are 2 hours long). Each session has a lecture, in-class exercises, discussion, and weekly assignments. Each participant is required to fill out questionnaires before the first session, after the last session of the treatment, and at a 3-month follow-up after treatment. Participants will benefit from a new and promising intervention that can significantly help with their migraines at no cost.

Intervention for Sleep and Pain in Youth: A Randomized Controlled Trial
InsomniaMigraine Disorders1 moreInsomnia is a common comorbidity among adolescents with migraine. This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to determine efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for insomnia, as well as the combined effect of CBT insomnia and pain interventions, on reducing insomnia symptoms and headache-related disability in adolescents with migraine. The long-term goal is to offer effective, tailored self-management interventions that can address migraine and co-morbid sleep problems in adolescence and disrupt a cycle of persistent, disabling migraine from continuing into adulthood.
A Study of Galcanezumab (LY2951742) in Participants 6 to 17 Years of Age With Episodic Migraine...
Episodic MigraineThe main purpose of this study is to evaulate the efficacy and safety of galcanezumab in participants 6 to 17 years of age for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of galcanezumab versus placebo in the reduction of monthly migraine headache days across the 3-month double-blind treatment period.
