Active clinical trials for "Migraine Disorders"

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate a clinical limit (CL) of rizatriptan (9 rizatriptan 10mg Orally Disintegrating Tablet (ODT) per month) versus (vs.) a formulary limit (FL) of rizatriptan (27 rizatriptan 10mg ODT per month) as measured by the number of days of migraine per month.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of telcagepant (MK-0974) compared to an approved medication for acute migraine. This study was conducted as a "triple-dummy" design; for each dose of study drug, participants each received 3 forms of study drug (2 capsules of active and/or placebo and 1 tablet of active and/or placebo) and were instructed to take one of each form of study drug at dosing time. The primary hypotheses of this study are that telcagepant is superior to placebo in Pain Freedom at 2 Hours Post-Dose, Pain Relief at 2 Hours Post-Dose, Absence of Photophobia at 2 Hours Post-Dose, Absence of Phonophobia at 2 Hours Post-Dose and Absence of Nausea at 2 Hours Post-Dose.

The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of using ketorolac as a nasal spray for the acute treatment of migraine.

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.

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 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.

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). [Study 2 of 2]

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.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of three doses of topiramate (50 milligrams[mg], 100mg, and 200mg per day) compared with placebo in the prevention of migraine. The study will also assess the dose response relationship and the efficacy of treatment with topiramate versus placebo on Health-Related Quality of Life.
