NCT00957996
This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized study of the antiviral activity, safety, and tolerability of intravenous Peramivir in hospitalized subjects with confirmed or suspected influenza infection.
NCT00712725
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and appropriate dosage level of MK3207 in the treatment of acute migraine.
NCT02350985
The presented study aims to compare effectivity of propranolol with effectivity of venlafaxine in escalating dose in subjects with vestibular migraine (VM) over a period of 12 weeks. The study population consisted of subjects diagnosed definite VM according to criteria of Bárány Society and Migraine Classification Subcommittee of the International Headache Society (IHS). Effectivity of therapy was measured by Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), number of vertiginous attack of last month and visual analogue scale (VAS) reported dizziness related Quality of Life (QOL). Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were also used to determine psychiatric improvement played role in response to therapy in venlafaxine treatment arm.
NCT01648530
This is a population internet-based study to characterize migraine clinical course and impact on family.
NCT00123201
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dronabinol MDI for the acute treatment of moderate to severe migraine headache.
NCT00360282
The purpose of this study is to determine if Rizatriptan, a migraine medication, lowers motion sickness in migraine sufferers.
NCT01476176
This PK study is designed to show bioequivalence between the study treatments.
NCT01687088
Olfactory impairment is a common symptom of neurologic disorders and may be related to dopaminergic dysfunction. Studies show that patients with migraine show increased sensitivity to light and sound. In our previous study in episodic migraineurs, olfaction was similar to age and sex-matched controls outside of attacks, but lower during acute attacks. The hypothesis is that olfactory function in chronic migraine (CM) will have mild impairment of olfaction at baseline but a more significant impairment during migraine or headache exacerbations. The investigators have two objectives: * To determine baseline olfactory acuity in subjects with CM and compare them to age and sex-matched controls * To determine how olfaction changes during acute exacerbations of migraine in those with CM To execute this study, the investigators will interview subjects and controls to ensure that they meet inclusion and exclusion criteria. After obtaining informed consent, subjects and controls will complete a questionnaire survey regarding their history or lack of history of headaches, smell sensitivity, osmophobia and current medication use and answer questions about attack frequency, location of headache, duration of disease, use of medication for pain, and disability. Both migraineurs and controls will take the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) in the office. After the first visit, migraineurs and controls will self-administer the UPSIT at home. They will be required to return the second test to the Jefferson Headache Center. The investigators will use analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine variance in UPSIT scores between subjects and controls. To achieve a 90% power that the study will detect a statistically significant difference between the mean UPSIT scores at a two-sided 5 percent significance level, our sample size for both subjects and controls is 50.
NCT00849511
The circadian system with its centre in the hypothalamus is involved in migraine pathophysiology. Whether it plays a pivotal role is not clarified. The investigators postulate that a destabilized circadian system may increase migraine attack susceptibility, and that stabilization by supplying melatonin a migraine preventive effect will be achieved. A previous open label study has shown effects that certainly warrant a placebo controlled study.
NCT01813669
The purpose of this study is to examine whether an integrative group-based intervention will help children experiencing psychological and physical distress. Children, ages 10 to 12, will be recruited for participation in this therapeutic group. Eligible and consenting participants will be randomized to a wait-list control group or the group intervention. The group intervention will take place over a 12-week period, during which participants will attend a weekly coping skills group that integrates yoga-based practices (such as yoga poses, mindfulness, self-acceptance, breath work) with cognitive-behavioral principles (such as increasing awareness of thoughts and emotions).
NCT00216619
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness (beyond 6 months) of individualized doses (100 to 200 milligrams) of topiramate for the prevention of migraine headaches over a period of 26 weeks.
NCT00203294
Subjects are scheduled to undergo a Greater Occipital Nerve Block (GONB) as treatment for your chronic daily headache (CDH). GONB has been used for many years in the treatment of headaches. The nerve block is done by injecting a liquid drug through the skin of the back of the head to the area of the greater occipital nerve. The nerve runs superficially in this area, therefore the drugs are injected just under the skin. The injected drugs block electrical transmission through the nerve, resulting in reduced head pain. There are treatment options for patients receiving a GONB, however, some clinicians use local anesthetics (lidocaine and /or bupivicaine) alone, and some use local anesthetics with local steroid injection. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not there is an observed difference between these two treatment approaches for GONB. We expect to enroll 60 patients into this research study at Thomas Jefferson University only.
NCT01329562
The purpose of this study is to (1) evaluate pain-free efficacy of Treximet™ following treatment of menstrual migraine, (2) investigate levels of Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), estrogen, cortisol, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), alpha (a)-amylase, Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), Prostaglandin I2 (PGI2) and beta (ß)-endorphin in saliva before and after Treximet™, (3) evaluate efficacy of Treximet™ to return to baseline levels following treatment, and (4) correlate estrogen in saliva vs. urinary estradiol at mid-luteal, onset of menstrually-related migraine, and after successful treatment with Treximet™.
NCT00458770
Cluster headache is characterized by unilateral excruciating head pain and autonomic dysfunction. Hypothalamic overactivity was observed in nitrate-induced cluster-headache and in only one case of spontaneous cluster headache 'Sprenger et al, 2004). This prompted the application of hypothalamic deep brain stimulation. The aim of this data is to precise the localisation of the hypothalamic activation.
NCT01653340
The purpose of this study is to assess short- and long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of cervical High Frequency Spinal Cord Stimulation (HF-SCS) in patients suffering from chronic migraine refractory to conventional medical therapy.
NCT01096420
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and tolerance of acupuncture treatment compared with pharmacologic treatment in patients with chronic migraines.Besides, the investigators tested whether the clinical effects of acupuncture in chronic migraine prophylaxis are mediated by changes of the plasma CGRP (Calcitonin gene-related peptide).
NCT00298805
The purpose of this study is to compare depressive characteristics in migraine patients to those observed in patients with epilepsy in a previous study, and determine whether those symptoms are unique to patients with epilepsy.
NCT00714727
The object of this research study is to test a standardized set of acupuncture points on migraine patients to reduce frequency and intensity of headaches. Acupuncture has been studied in prior research but the treatment points have varied between subjects, making it difficult to replicate studies.
NCT01488110
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel therapy for treatment of migraine, pain reduction and relief of associated symptoms during ongoing migraine attacks, and presence of a preventive effect two months post treatment. Another purpose is to investigate if and how this treatment affects manifestations of the autonomic nervous system activity.
NCT00956969
This interventional, randomized controlled study seeks to test the effects of a novel emotional awareness and expression intervention against relaxation training or no intervention for college students with chronic headaches. These two interventions are conceptually quite distinct, as the former seeks to activate and process anger, whereas the latter, more commonly used technique, seeks to suppress or avoid it.
