A Study in Migraine Prevention
Migraine HeadacheThe primary objective of this study is to measure the change in frequency of migraine attacks per 28 days in migraine patients being treated orally with LY2300559 for 12 weeks.
DP-VPA for Migraine Prophylaxis, a Pilot Efficacy Study
MigraineThe study will evaluate if DP-VPA, a derivative of valproate (a drug that is commonly used for the prevention of migraine attacks), can reduce the rate of migraine attacks. Migraine patients will take DP-VPA or placebo (an inactive look-alike drug) every morning and will have to report any migraine attacks they have during the study's 18-week follow up.
Migraine Induction Properties of PACAP-38 After Eptinezumab in Migraine Without Aura Patients.
MigraineTo investigate whether administration of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) binding monoclonal antibodies eptinezumab prevents pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP-38) induced migraine attacks in migraine without aura patients.
Biomarker Study in Participants With Migraine
Migraine DisordersThis is a study of participants with a diagnosis of migraine who completed another clinical trial NCT02163993. The participants received either LY2951742 or placebo. This study NCT02766517 will evaluate how certain biomarkers may be related to the participant's response in study NCT02163993. The study will last about five days.
An Exploratory Prospective Trial of Rescue Acupuncture for the Treatment of Acute Migraine
MigraineThis will be an exploratory observational trial of rescue acupuncture for the treatment of acute migraine in military beneficiaries to gain information to inform the power analysis of a larger, more definitive trial. Researchers do not seek to definitively answer the question of whether this acupuncture protocol is effective; rather, we seek to estimate the proportion of migraine episodes that result in headache-free status 20-30 minutes, 2 hours, 4 hours, and 24 hours after an acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture treatments will be subject dependent, and points could include the N point (on scalp); various auricular points to include Shen Men, Point Zero, thalamus and Omega-2; body points to include Liver 2, Liver 3, Gall Bladder 20, bladder 10; and surface release over tense areas in the neck or shoulders. Researchers will document the points used, and data will be aggregated to determine overall effectiveness. Sub-group analysis by points will be performed to determine if there is more usefulness in 1 point or combination of points. These estimates will inform statistical power calculations for a future randomized controlled trial (RCT) that directly compares the effectiveness of Rescue Acupuncture with medical management of acute migraine with rescue medication. Researchers will also assess the feasibility of this study protocol as well as patient receptivity and satisfaction.
A Nutritional Intervention for Migraines
MigrainesThe purpose of the study is to assess whether, in individuals with migraines, a low-fat, vegan diet improves pain more effectively than a control supplement or a placebo. The principal measures are pain as measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and the change in migraines frequency. The study duration is 36 weeks.
A Study of LY2951742 in Healthy Japanese and Caucasian Participants
Migraine DisordersThe main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug known as LY2951742 in healthy Japanese and Caucasians. The study will also investigate how the body processes the drug and how the drug affects the body. The study is expected to last about 5 to 7 months, depending on the arm.
Does a Migraine Medication Decrease Rotational Motion Sickness in People Suffering From Migraines?...
MigraineThe purpose of this study is to determine if Rizatriptan, a migraine medication, lowers motion sickness in migraine sufferers.
Dose Comparison Study of Topiramate in Pediatric Subjects With Basilar/Hemiplegic Migraine
Basilar MigraineThe objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of topiramate in the prevention of basilar and hemiplegic migraine in children and adolescents.
Amylin and CGRP Head to Head Provocation in Migraine Without Aura Patients
Migraine Without AuraAmylin and calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) are related to the same peptide family. Both share 16 out of 37 amino acids and can activate each others receptor. CGRP is implicated in migraine pathophysiology but the role of Amylin and its receptor in migraine is not fully clarified.
