Active clinical trials for "Migraine Disorders"

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was suggested to provide beneficial effects in chronic migraine (CM), a condition often associated with medication overuse (MO) for which no long-term therapy is available.

This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Atogepant 60 mg compared with placebo in participants with episodic migraine and who have previously failed 2 to 4 classes of oral prophylactic treatments.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of self-administered intranasal cooling for the symptomatic relief of migraine headache and associated symptoms in an "at home setting". 10-20 patients - who have been diagnosed according to the International Classification of Headache disorders (2nd Edition) criteria for Episodic migraine, with or without aura - will be included in the study. During a screening period of one month participants will record their migraine symptoms, any treatment and treatment effects. After a minimum om two migraine attacks the participants receive individual instructions on how to use the The RhinoChill® system. During the following treatment period of the study, participants are instructed to treat their upcoming three migraine attacks with 10 minutes of nasal cavity cooling according to the instructions and thereby register symptoms and treatment effects after 10 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours.

MOVEMENT (Multimechanistic Treatment over Time of Migraine Symptoms) is a Phase 3 study to evaluate the long-term safety of chronic intermittent use of AXS-07 and to assess the effect of AXS-07 on migraine symptoms following repeated treatment of migraine attacks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eptinezumab administered intravenously in participants experiencing an acute attack of migraine.

The term "refractory" migraine describes a particularly aggressive form of the disease in which the patient does not benefit from any of the preventive therapies with the various classes of drugs available, including treatment with monoclonal antibodies directed against Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP). Anxiety, depressive symptoms, somatization, and pain hypersensitivity are significantly more prevalent in refractory migraineurs than in non-refractory subjects who benefit from preventive therapies, suggesting that these symptoms may contribute to treatment refractoriness. Recently, in a preliminary study on the efficacy of a CGRP-targeting monoclonal antibody in Chronic Migraine (CM) patients with at least 3 failures to previous preventive treatments, the investigators showed a higher prevalence of psychological disturbances in those who did respond to the monoclonal antibody compared with the responders. These data, although preliminary, point to a more psychologically complicated picture in non-responder patients compared with responders. To date, however, no neurobiological evaluations are available to explain how psychological comorbidities may contribute to treatment refractoriness. Isolated clinical evidence and growing pre-clinical evidence suggests a role for the endocannabinoid system in migraine. Hence, the present study aims to identify psychological and biological factors associated with refractory migraine. The investigators' hypothesis is that patients presenting with psychological disorders may bear an associated dysfunction of the endocannabinoid system, which makes them more resistant to migraine preventive therapies, including monoclonal antibodies directed against CGRP.

Mindfulness Training specifically for pain to be offered to migraine patients

Study 20170703 is a phase 4, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab against placebo in participants with chronic migraine (CM) who have a history of at least 1 preventive treatment failure and are diagnosed with medication overuse headache (MOH).

Single-center, single-dose, open-label, 5-period crossover (in each part), pharmacokinetic and safety study.

In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of two different treatments applied to the neck region, which have been popular in recent years, on migraine.The study included 45 female patients aged 20-50 years with migraine complaints. The patients were divided into 3 randomized groups: control group (n=15), Instrument-Assisted Soft tissue Mobilization (EDYDM) group (n=15) and on Occipital nerve TENS (OTES) group(n=15).Each group was given home exercise to their treatment. Home exercises applied 1 time per day for 5 weeks. Each exercise in the exercise program was performed with 10 repetitions
