Efficacy and Safety of Tx360® Transnasal Sphenopalatine Ganglion Block in the Treatment of Chronic...

HeadacheMigraine

This is a double blind placebo-controlled study which will evaluate the efficacy of bupivacaine compared to saline, delivered by the Tx360® device to the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG), to treat chronic migraine headache. The Tx360® is a nasal applicator which is cleared through the FDA for transnasal medication delivery, including delivery to the SPG. The SPG has been implicated in a variety of cephalalgias. It is critical to the success of this intervention that the blocking agent be accurately delivered to this area as it is the only non-bony access to the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF). Subjects meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will receive 12 intranasal treatments to the SPG over a period of 4 weeks with follow-up monthly for an additional 3 months post-treatment.

Study on 30 Outpatients With Chronic Migraine Treated With Well-Being Therapy or With a Control...

Chronic Migraine

Chronic migraine is a disabling type of migraine and is often resistant to treatment. Non-pharmacological interventions have been investigated as potential treatment although, unfortunately, the literature on their efficacy is poor and showed mixed results. Well-Being Therapy (WBT) is a brief psychotherapy which has shown efficacy in decreasing the relapse rates of depression in adults, in generalized anxiety disorder and in cyclothymia. It can be implemented to empower psychological well-being. The aim of the present study is to test the efficacy of WBT in a sample of patients with chronic migraine to verify if it reduces the disability due to migraine and distress, it increases the psychological well-being as well as the level of euthymia.

Efficacy and Safety of Erenumab in Pediatric Subjects With Episodic Migraine

Migraine

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab in migraine prevention in children (6 to <12 years) and adolescents (12 to <18 years) with episodic migraine. The study hypothesis is that in pediatric subjects with episodic migraine, the combined erenumab dose group has a greater reduction from baseline to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) in monthly migraine days (MMDs) when compared with placebo in the double-blind treatment phase (DBTP).

Brain Connectome for Acupuncture-treated Migraine Patients

Migraine Without AuraAcupuncture Therapy

Acupuncture has been a means of treating headaches and migraine since 2002 and is now a World Health Organisation-recognized prophylactic treatment for migraine. Brain activation/de-activation via acupuncture modifies the haemodynamic responses in the brain which may impact the sensorial, cognitive and affective dimensions of pain. Randomized studies on patients suffering from aura-free migraine have shown that the painkilling effect of regular acupuncture sessions on the cerebral substratum, compared with simulated sham-type acupuncture, can reduce the frequency of bouts of migraine, number of days with headaches and also their intensity. Modifications to the white matter (WM) and grey matter (GM) occur after repeated sessions of acupuncture treatment for pain and these are observable via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It is a very sensitive technique and often used to detect functional and structural brain changes.

Digital CBTI for Comorbid Insomnia in Chronic Migraine

Insomnia ChronicMigraine Disorders

The overall aims of the study are: Aim 1: Estimate effect sizes: To estimate the effects of dCBT-I on insomnia symptoms compared to a control group (sleep hygiene education) and estimate the relationship between changes in insomnia symptoms and the reduction in migraines. Aim 2: Explore mechanisms of change: To explore the mechanisms underlining the change in migraine symptoms. Aim 3: Assess barriers to conducting a full-scale RCT: To collect data on recruitment pace and dropouts in both groups, which will help refine the methodology and maximise uptake and retention of a full-scale randomised control trial (RCT). The investigators will conduct qualitative interviews with a select number of participants and practitioners to identify motivators/barriers in uptake of a digitalised version of CBT-I.

A Study to Test if Fremanezumab is Effective in Preventing Migraine in Children and Adolescents...

Migraine

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of subcutaneous fremanezumab in the preventive treatment of migraine in pediatric participants 6 to 17 years of age (inclusive at enrollment in the pivotal study). Secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous fremanezumab in pediatric participants with migraine and to evaluate the immunogenicity of fremanezumab and the impact of ADAs on clinical outcomes in pediatric participants exposed to fremanezumab. The total duration of the study is planned to be up to 60 months.

Effectiveness of Multimodal Physical Therapy in Migraine

MigraineMusculoskeletal Neck Pain3 more

INTRODUCTION: It is very common that migraine patients could refer neck pain during or after the pain phase of migraine, suggesting that migraine pathophysiological mechanisms could be effective in activating neck pain pathways and be part of the migraine attack. Due to the therapeutic effect of multimodal physical therapy (mobilization and/or manipulation plus exercises) on several pain conditions arising from articular and/or muscular structures such as neck pain, and given the close clinical, anatomical and pathogenetic bi-directional relationship between neck pain and migraine, it would be of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of the physical treatment of the neck region in migraine pain. PURPOSE: to evaluate the efficacy of a combined multimodal physical therapy approach plus usual care vs. usual care alone in subjects with episodic and chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions. STUDY DESIGN: this is a prospective, parallel group, randomized clinical trial. METHODS: A total of 56 subjects aged 18-65 who meet criteria for episodic or chronic migraine with concomitant cervical musculoskeletal dysfunctions will be randomly assigned to receive, musculoskeletal focused multimodal physical therapy (16 sessions over 8 weeks) plus usual care treatment vs. usual care alone. CONFLICT OF INTEREST: not declared.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Acupuncture in Treating Migraine

Migraine Without Aura

Migraine without aura is a common kind of nervous system diseases that can easily cause recurrent headache, leading to severe impacts on quality of life and health care costs. Current therapeutic options for migraine without aura mainly include flunarizine hydrochloride that can relieve vasospasm. Nevertheless, the efficacy of flunarizine hydrochloride is always limited by inevitable side effects, which result in poor compliance of patients. Moreover, for some most suffering patients, the control of pain is often unsatisfactory despite of the administration of complex treatment combinations. As a non-pharmaceutical therapy, acupuncture is widely used for a wide range of pain conditions. Thus, it might be an alternative treatment for migraine without aura. The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture therapy in patients with migraine without aura from the perspective of Regulating Ying and Wei.

Effectiveness of a Health Education Programme for Prevention of Chronic Migraine: A Randomized Clinical...

Chronic Migraine

Chronic migraine (CM) is a common and frequent disorder, which has a major impact on the quality of life of migraine sufferers, interfering with physical function, productivity at work, personal life and leisure, lifestyle and psychological well-being. The use of a prophylactic drug treatment is recommended if headache is present more than 8 days per month. In addition, several studies have shown benefits of non-pharmacological interventions such as self-management strategies, manual therapy and exercise. However, no studies have been found that analyse the beneficial effect of a combination of a preventive drug treatment and a health education programme. Thus, this project would offer a service of health education through a telerehabilitation programme for patients with chronic migraine under prophylactic drug treatment. The aim of this study is to compare the combination of a prophylactic drug therapy and a health education programme in the preventive treatment of patients with chronic migraine.based on the hypothesis that a health education program for chronic migraine patients could decrease the number of migraine days.
