Active clinical trials for "Migraine Disorders"

Study volunteers are asked to use the Allay Lamp routinely during the 6-week study period. A web based survey is provided when the Lamp is purchased for study volunteers to complete. A daily usage paper diary is sent with the lamp so that volunteers can keep track of the frequency and duration of lamp usage and any noticeable benefits. At the end of six weeks a second survey is sent to study volunteers to capture their perceptions of potential lamp benefits with respect to headache frequency and their experience of migraine specific symptoms.

The purpose of the study is to investigate how the body absorbs, distributes, and get rid of eptinezumab when given directly into a vein.

This trial is to determine whether BHV3000 (rimegepant) 75mg is safe and effictive as a treatment for acute migraine in Chinese and Korean patients

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the treatment satisfaction of subjects using Sumavel DosePro to treat their moderate to severe migraines.

Development of Staccato Prochlorperazine for the treatment of migraine headache.

This is a research study looking at Migranal (study drug) in the treatment of two migraine attacks in patients who have a history of cutaneous allodynia (pronounced q-tay-nee-us al-o-din-ee-a). Cutaneous allodynia is an increased skin sensitivity experienced during a headache. It has been noted in several studies that in patients with migraine, seventy nine percent of the patients experienced allodynia on the facial skin on the same side as the headache. Understanding more about allodynia may help us understand how the pain system works in migraine. This study will compare the differences, if any, in attacks treated early with study drug (at 1-hour from onset) and attacks treated later (at 4-hours). You will be asked to treat one attack early and one attack late for this study. If the first attack you treat is early (at 1 hour following onset of throbbing pain) then the second attack you treat should be late (at 4 hours following onset of throbbing pain). It is hoped that this study will provide information on the use of Migranal in subjects who have cutaneous allodynia. The results from this study may be used in the development of larger clinical trials. The study drug is a medication that is taken in the form of nasal spray.

A study to evaluate rizatriptan for the treatment of multiple attacks of acute migraine compared to placebo.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether EP-4 receptor antagonist can prevent the headache expected during a Prostaglandin E2 infusion.

Migraine patients are oftentimes referred for evidence based behavioral therapies to prevent migraine. Yet, at follow-up visits, they report not seeing the behavioral therapist. This is a pilot feasibility acceptability study to assess whether motivational interviewing (MI) can be implemented in the headache center setting to help improve initiation and adherence to behavioral therapy for migraine. We will also assess patients' reasons for making/not making the appointment.

The majority of migraineurs seeking secondary or tertiary medical care develop cutaneous allodynia during the course of migraine, a sensory abnormality mediated by sensitization of central trigeminovascular neurons in the spinal trigeminal nucleus. Triptan therapy can render allodynic migraineurs pain-free within a narrow window of time (20-120 min) that opens with the onset of pain and closes with the establishment of central sensitization. This calls for the development of drugs that can tackle ongoing central sensitization and render allodynic migraineurs pain-free after the window for triptan therapy has expired. There are two main objectives the investigators seek to achieve from this study: to determine whether oral administration of DFN-15 (solution of a COX2 inhibitor, Celecoxib) terminates migraine attacks when given to allodynic participants 3 hours after attack onset; and to determine whether mechanical and heat allodynia that develop during acute migraine attacks could be reversed by late (> 3hrs after attack onset) treatment with DFN-15. Participants will be recruited from the Headache Center and randomized in a double-blinded fashion to receive either the active drug (DFN-15) or placebo in a ratio of 4:1.The participants will be instructed to return to the clinic during a migraine. At the 'during-migraine' visit, which will begin 3 hours after onset of headache, the investigators will document headache intensity, associated symptoms, and mechanical and heat pain threshold (first) before treatment (at 180 min after onset of headache) and (second) at a 120 min after treatment (5 hours after headache onset). Based on our prior experience studying migraine patients, the investigators plan to screen 100 patients to achieve 50 participants completing the 2 study visits as planned. The active drug group will consist of 80/100 patients and 20/100 patients will receive the placebo. The study will be terminated as soon as the first 40 participants who received the DFN-15 and first 10 patients who received placebo completed visit 2.
